Their day, their way.

Their day, their way.
Just a friendly reminder that I’m here, I’m working, living and breaking your films right now. It’s a long but enjoyable process to relive your days and try to express how it felt to be there and participate with those feelings. The logistics of a wedding day is the hard part, connecting with your loved ones is easy, and it makes the whole day whirl past so quick.
I guess it’s my role to help you and your family reconnect with that feeling, appreciate all the hard work you put in, and indulge in your own loveliness for a while. Thank you to all my wonderful couples who chose me to be a part of your day, it genuinely means a lot that you let this bald gremlin follow you around with cameras all day. I’m so grateful. Love you all. I’ll be in touch soon. Xo

Just a glimpse of what we’ve been up to. Needed to end wedding season with a banger so my amazing wife Found in Earth - Deloraine Floristry put together a zero-pressure styled shoot, I did pretty much f**kall. But I did have a lot of fun with lighting this. Lit entirely by .lighting B7C and rhe .australia 30x tube. Thank you to .margeret.photography for your talent and dealing with our chaos.
If you bring a shawl to your wedding day, I WILL steal it. I can’t be stopped.
Just kidding. But also I will try.
Just a reminder that there is a person behind Awkward Soul, it’s me, Ash. I try to put myself out there so people know what kind of an idiot will be there on their special day, but also a reminder that when you’re choosing someone to capture your day, you’re not hiring a camera, you’re hiring a person. Even “hiring” is not a great word. Participating is better.
I’m not going to be the kind of guy that shoots with a zoom lens on from way back, I’m gonna get amongst you and your loved ones, while being respectful of personal space. I don’t want it to feel like a stranger turning up on your day. I want to be on a first name basis with everyone. I will talk too much and tell bad jokes when I’m nervous but you’ll get used to it.
Bloody hell I’m doing it now. If you’ve read this far seriously have a drink on me.
Hopefully at the end of your day you feel like you’ve made a mate, not “hired a vendor.”
Be safe. Be good. Peace.

Absolute babes! What a fun day. Despite the spring rain we had the most fun day with this lot.
The painfully lovely Kalina & Sam & their adorable little family. Please turn up your volume and try to soak in Sam’s beautiful vows. Honestly, hearing someone speak completely from the heart this way is really moving. Thank you Kalina & Sam for having me here. What a dreamy day with the two of you. Full of belly laughs and tears and some sexual noises, resulting in more giggles. You guys rule.

This lady right here!!!!!
Not only does she run a stunning florist, travel state-wide for wedding installs, but also seems to fit in time to start her own flower farm. Not to mention she’s a bad ass of a boss! We are so so grateful for the woman she is in each of our lives. She goes above and beyond for each of us! We love you Cazzy.
P.s how stunning is she?

“Sometimes you might see a photo/video shoot with a couple, maybe cuddling in bed in the pj’s, maybe snuggled in a bathtub, or running through some tall grass and think it’s just surface level.
Being vulnerable is not a weakness, it’s a strength and through it you take away the power of your fears. Imposter syndrome will tell you that you’re not good enough and don’t deserve love. Expressing the fear physically, saying it aloud, being vulnerable empowers you to love yourself. Toxic masculinity and fear of weakness. Being vulnerable isn’t weak, it’s fu***ng hard work. Only through empathy can you grow.”
Desperately need a break. So we’re off to be with friends and family for a few weeks to find inspiration again. And be lazy. Thank you all for your patience and understanding.
“I promise to love you, simply love you.”
Sneaking Saxen & Bethany out of the pouring rain for some private cuddles. Still got saturated but they took it like champs and embraced Tassie weather.
Time goes by too quick but I still have fun memories of this day =]
We couldn’t keep Dani & Justin off each other. A chance to just be husband and wife, frolicking on the beach without a care in the world.

I don’t even know where to start with these two.
One of the most fun weddings, lots of smiles and tears and twerking. So many good moments to share but let’s start with a quiet one.
