July 01 2010
2 things
Welcome to my new set-up of my Blog please tell me what you think. Yes the categories or archives button isnt working but honestly I couldnt wait for tech support so enjoy(I will fix asap)!!! New change, new colours, new background that I still may change. Let me know if you like or dislike, do I need to change something but now for the important stuff a new blog entry:
Joel & Leah
yes I guess thats a weird way to title a blog. But I have Joel & Leah’s wedding in October. & when I seen them at my tenth anniversary party a few weeks ago. I said this was a must.
Sometimes when you grow up with people that you class as you your close friends but were from two different parts of your life you think they will never come together but SURPRISE they did. I knew Leah when my I use to go visit my Dad in Bourke for school holidays so she was about 12ish when we hung out.
Joel I knew from Tamworth,where he grew up & yes we became close mates too. Yes a bit younger than me but heh whats age got to do with friendship.
So when I heard these guys had got together I was so happy for them…but I said to them “I need to shoot you together, to get this relationship in MY HEAD…weird huh I have never said that before. So this shoot fixed this.
We had a blast, they laughed at my lame jokes the light was GORGEOUS …all over fantastic. & yes now I can see them together forever.
Thanks guys cant wait to shoot their wedding.
Now alot of my mates read this blog(well hopefully they do) please leave these guys a comment,some well wishes etc
You guys look so Happy & FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANTASTIC
Love the balloons….Leahs Fav colour—–Green cant wait for the wedding!
My Fav……Just love this!!!
Now to all my regulars I really need your help. Here is technology & It will save me heaps of time but the question is do you like & which one do you like? or any at all- or do you prefer the old way?
SO I will put a few large files-my favs then these two options….numbered gallery or lightbox…Simply option 1 or option 2
worse case you get to see in this post alot of Joel & Leah’s fab pics. Thanks for your help!! This may take a little longer to load due to all the options!!!
Happy Picking!!!

Jodi gives 2 big thumbs up!! I love it! I also prefer option 2. It gives a thumbnail of the images so its good for easy referencing to the photos you know you want to see over and over. For example, I was instantly drawn to the photo of the green balloons in the field. I loved how I could just enlarge it with one click, without having to remember what number the image was in the first option. Does that make any sense?

What an awesome shot!!! Compliments to the photographer – Karissa you have captured all aspects of the scene. Their joy and love for each other shines through and the landscape envelopes them. Troy reckons he didn’t realise Joel was so strong…

I like the option at the bottom… I like being able to click through he photos as fast or as slow as I like. but I’m not a fan of things that take too long to load… I truly am a product of my generation…
These are amazing images Karissa… I can’t wait till our next shoot…

Congrats Joel & Leah. You have some great pics to choose from! What great sunlight on the day. You both look so happy and relaxed. Happy wedding planning.
Ps Karissa new setup looks cool with the scrolling pics, maybe a lighter backround, it bright for a slow Monday morning. But hey Iam awake now.Lol

Hi Karissa
I love these piccies and the new style you are using. I agree with your other regulars that it is easier to navigate and pinpoint which photos I want to focus on. The photos are just GORGEOUS. I especially love the one under the tree where they are looking into each others eyes and he has his hand around her neck – just yummy!!! It also reminds me that it is 5 months today exactly until we get married and apart from the fact of being uber excited, I also need to book us in for our engagement shoot – probably sooner rather than later before the spring crazy wedding season starts again I am assuming?
Cheers and thanks for what you bring to the world. You are a true talent.
Cheers
Anna
