Wedding reception Photography
It's time to fuel up before the night
It's nosebag time
The ceremony is over; the knot has been tied, and you've crossed the T's and dotted the I's. Now is the time to start the celebrations in earnest; it looks like Uncle Dave has got a head start on everybody and is already swaying at the bar. Mum & Dad will be there later to drown their sorrows over the small fortune that they've spent today. Their retirement cruise has gone down the Swanny River; I can hear Dad crying from here.
While you, your family & guests are getting comfortable and oiling the vocal chords I'll be wandering around capturing truly candid moments.
