Rockhampton Wedding Photography – Riki & Alysha

I first really got to know Alysha & Riki at a wedding that wasn’t their’s. Nathan & Michelle got married back in May- and the 4 of them seem pretty tight.
Nathan & Michelle’s wedding was where I first saw that Alysha’s capable of 1 hand pushups  (after a couple of drinks). Also got to see how Riki likes to have a good time.

After that night I could tell they were the kind of people who were going to enjoy their own day. Not stress about it being perfect- just enjoy being around the people they care most about. While most brides keep quiet in their room before the ceremony- Alysha was racing around in golf buggies. No concern for the hair dropping- just wanted to enjoy her day. Riki was just happy to know Alysha was having a good day. And then there’s their little boy Archie- the cutest little fella you’ll meet. Scared of me for a while- but got used to me soon enough (which was a relief). He’s the centre of their universe- and even on their big day he was right their with them through all of it. Spitting image of his dad.

Got to mention Michelle’s speech- which choked up everyone one who tried to read it. Each of the bridesmaid had a go- each developed a shake in their voice. Fun & emotional. Check.

Finally- just a big thanks to you both. Couldn’t have been made more welcome. Hope you love the pics and thanks for the bottle of Jimmy. ; ).

Michelle Eyles - I took a few “personal” minutes from work to view the photos from the wedding and it didn’t take long before the tears started rolling down my face. Orin, you did it again, you managed to shoot the day as you always do, with heart, never taking over the wedding snaps just capturing it like a perfect timeline. The photos are unbelievable and even better then my memories from the day. Your work is captured by your ability to relax and easily fit into any circle, and this is why your portfolio is so impressive. As for the day, you’re right, for someone I’ve known for many years I don’t think I’ve ever see Alysha so happy, while the Groom Riki – handsome as always. Not only is this collection a tribute to your wonderful skill for photography but also the perfect symbol for the insurmountable love shared between the couple. Congrats Alysha and Riki – Awesome wedding and awesome pics! xo
