Dreamcoat Photography

Cosplayers are such awesome people to shoot – their costumes are just so out there! Recently we had a mini cosplay shoot afternoon for three customers keen to get their creations recorded for entry into various competitions and for posterity sake.

While the actual shoot was a white background (high key) studio shoot we then took the three of them out on the road and into some cool locations where we were able to get some great shots. Just an extra benefit at no extra cost!

The Characters are Lollipop Chainsaw, Black Cat and a Steampunk Vesuvian Explorer

Here are some of my fave pics – the whole lot can be seen in this Facebook album.

Brandon and Melissa are a couple that every photographer would love to have as a client. Melissa is super organised, contacting us almost 12 months before the wedding, arranging everything in advance, prepaying months in advance and knowing exactly what she wanted.

Sounds too good to be true? Well it wasnt.

It didn’t stop her having nerves or changing plans several times, but at least with plenty of time up her sleeve there were no last minute hurdles, and that meant we were able to be super organised and panned for her as well.

The wedding ceremony was a simple affair at the registry office, which happens to be next door to the luxury Treasury Hotel, where Brandon and Melissa had booked a suite and a function room.

We provided hair and makeup for the pre wedding trial and the wedding itself for the bridal party. With two photographers on hand to cover the rest of the event we had a ball with a 50’s pinup era inspired look.

Book us now for your pre-planned super organised wedding and we wont let you down. Or come to us as a last minute addition to your wedding and watch us do our thing to get you the best photos possible in a super short amount of time.

Here are some of my favourite pics from the day.

Each year the RSPCA holds a 5km fun walk fundraiser called the Million Paws Walk where dog owners are encourage to take their dog for a walk. Vital finds are raised through this activity.

We are sponsors of our local event providing event photography for the day including the prize giving official announcements and speeches etc. We also provide a photo-booth for owners to get shots of or with their pets.

We would be happy to cover your event for you, provide a photo-booth, or even talk about sponsoring your event. Talk to us today.

Here are a few shots from the day.

The Jazzcat Restaurant is a modern Asian fusion restaurant that supports live jazz artists and musicians in the trendy Brisbane suburb of Paddington.

The Gecko Echo artists night was a night for local underground musicians and poets to get together and present. In a bohemian style evening we experienced the wide range of musical styles and pseudo-intellectual discussions that inhabited the space. An art installation comprising some 14 old style slide projectors behind some Japanese style folding screens created a great backdrop as well.

The food is fantastic and the best beer in china is server here also.

The night was raw and grainy, and the images are too – we wanted to express the nature of the night.

We recently photographed a whole bunch of Guinea Pigs that are special pets for our girls. It was just in time for only 2 days later one of them fell sick and died.

Get your pet photos either on their own like these, or with you for special memories. We can create photo books as well of you and your pets to remember them by.

As sponsors of PRIMA we get to go to all the shows opening nights, and we get to take some cool photos of a great bunch of very talented people. I’m not sure which I enjoy most, watching the show as a customer or watching through my lens as we capture the fun.

The 60s Theatre Restaurant has been extremely popular with every show completely sold out. A packed house sure gives off an ambience that a lot of fun.
