Jessica + John {Married} | Hobart wedding photographer, Katinka Smith

March 12, 2016 was the day that John and Jessica said ‘I do’! What a beautiful day it was.

John got ready at his family’s home and Jess got ready in the gorgeous home recently purchased by the happy couple (2016 is their year!). They said their vows in St Stephen’s Anglican Church (also know as the Red Chapel at the Bottom of Red Chapel Ave in Sandy Bay) and had their Reception at the Henry Jones Art Hotel on the Hobart docks.

The skies were a little grey but the rain held of until the couple hit their reception (phew!).

The team that helped to make their day special were:

Hair: Bianca Schenk
Make-up: Beth Oakley
Priest: Rob Stanley
Flowers: Anna Marchant
Dress: Caleche from Luxe, Hobart
Musicians: Hobart Mobile Music

Thank you also to my second shooter Elena Gough who helped me out on the day and in particular got some great ‘in the moment’ shots while I was working with the bigger groups. Thanks Elena!

Here is the story of Jessica and John’s day.

December 12, 2015 was a lovely day for Michael and Nicole to say ‘I do’! They held their ceremony and reception at the gorgeous Twelve Stones in Pontville, Tasmania. This is one of my favourite local breakfast spots, so I was excited to photograph a wedding here!

Here are some details of the special people that helped make Nicole and Michael’s wedding amazing!
Hair: Nicole and Sarah (it’s handy when the Bride is also a hairdresser!)
Make up: KazC Mobile Makeup Artistry
Priest: Celia Hooker
Flowers: Kylie Davey – Designs for you Wedding Flowers.
The cake was crafted by Nicole’s mum Michelle.

Here are some highlights from Nicole and Michael’s wonderful day. It has been an honour to get to know you both and your wonderful children. I wish you both happiness and love! Thanks so much for having me along.

Thank you also to my always trusty second photographer James Garlick for photographing the boys and helping me out on the day.

Tori and Anders Engagement photoshoot | Hobart wedding photographer, Katinka Smith

Some images from Tori and Anders sweet engagement session in Fitroy gardens with their wonderful beagles! Dogs are family too and I love including them whenever we can. I love working with my wedding couples prior to their big day. It is a great way for us to really get to know each other and help reduce some of those camera nerves so that they can just relax and feel a bit more natural on their special day. I think it worked, Tori and Anders were fantastic on their wedding day! You can see for yourself HERE.

Tori and Anders {Married} | Hobart wedding photographer, Katinka Smith

On 14 March 2015 the gorgeous Tori and Anders said “I do” in the company of their special family and friends. The weather left a lot to be desired but wow we were so lucky, we got perfect windows of lovely weather at the exact times that we needed them! It was an honour to be apart of their very special day!

Tori, Gemma and Anna got ready at the Marchant family home – which was amazing! Their make up was done by Liv Rodgers and their hair by Cath at Bboss Sandy Bay.

Anders, Stuart and Rowan got ready at the amazing Woodbridge Hill Hideaway where the lovers were wed, which was handy, because they had some work to do hanging their lanterns and setting things up just so. No rest for the boys!

Maria Bond was their wonderful celebrant and she did a great job tailoring their ceremony just so. She was also LOVELY! The cake was AMAZING and was made by Lisa Morgan at Creating Cakes. Those adorable flowers are by Lisa at Milkbud flowers and styling on the East Coast.

All in all, it was an amazing wedding for two really beautiful people. Congratulations Tori and Anders! Thank you so much for having me along to photograph your special day.

Thanks again to my wonderful ‘sidekick’ James Garlick for being my trusty second shooter. I couldn’t ask for better!

Ange and Farrel {Married} | Hobart wedding photographer, Katinka Smith

On 9 March 2014, Angela and Farrel said ‘I do’ and had an awesome party!
It was a beautiful ceremony in St David’s Park, Hobart. A gorgeous sunny warm Autumn day. David Closs was the celebrant, there were visitors from all over to witness the moment that had been patiently waited for and there were 3 cheeky little boys – the VIP witnesses. Ange was prepared for her special day in the Lenna of Hobart Hotel – a stunning location!

Many thanks to my sidekick James Garlick for second shooting. Here is a selection of our highlights from the day.

Jeremy + Gina = love | Hobart photographer, Katinka Smith

I have been friends with Jeremy for a long time. We first met in year 7 and we are lucky enough that our wonderful group of friends from highschool and college are still friends…nearly 20 years later (gosh that sounds old!) My memories of Jeremy include his love of Buddy Holly and dinosaurs, his beautiful soul, generous nature and ability to see the best in everyone and everything. He is one of those rare people who I have never heard say a bad word about anyone.

Gina is the incredible woman that has taken Jeremy’s heart, and him hers. Gina has passions that align with those of Jeremy. They both work professionally and also in volunteer capacities to try to change our world. Wonderful people who have a fabulous match.

Here are some frames from our recent session. Be sure to watch the slideshow for many more 🙂

Thomas and Martina {Married} | Hobart photographer

On Sunday 3 March I photographed a special day. Thomas and Martina are from Germany, on holiday in Tasmania for 5 weeks. On Sunday they were married at Fleurty’s Cafe in Birch’s Bay, Tasmania. Yes, they eloped!

Congratulations to you both. It was a BEAUTIFUL wedding to photograph and an absolute honour to be apart of. A very special mention also needs to go to Anissa and Karsten, the bride and groom’s friends and witnesses, especially Anissa who worked hard to pull it together for the happy couple on the other side of the world.

Here is a selection of images, I hope you all enjoy.
