PDA or not to PDA?!?
You will understand this question if you spend a few fun hours with Nicole and Gary. They said they were not really into PDA and we were totally cool with that, but they certainly have chemistry and when there was a little public display of affection it was soooo sweet!
When Nicole called us up and asked to come out for a consultation we were thrilled because we love getting the opportunity to work with brides who have already seen us in action at a wedding. We met Nicole back in 2010 when she was a bridesmaid in the wedding we photographed for her brother and his beautiful bride. What we didn’t know is that we were also photographing her future husband at that wedding. We do have some sweet photos of Gary getting his dance moves on at Jenna & Daniel’s wedding… feel free to mosy on over to the blog and view the images for yourself :)
O.k. so fast forward a little more than a year and we now get to spend time with Gary & Nicole. We met up downtown and immediately we knew this was going to be good as we watched their interaction with one another through our lens. Nicole is cute and sassy while Gary is a little more relaxed and funny – together they made it easy to capture very candid and natural images of the two of them. They were willing to walk the path out at Percivals just to get to a spot we have been eager to photograph. They climbed up on parts of bridges, they took a mini hike down a sandy hill to get to a wicked cool tree and they humored when we put them on the spot for getting one another to laugh. Little did we know how funny Gary really is and that we had actually been invited to the Gary Straw show (it had to be said). The way they look at one another in these images just makes us smile.
We enjoyed our time spent with you two and we are looking forward to the sequel to the show in May!

Colling Photography - Thanks Becky! If you want to take your kids to see the tree, go downtown to the trail at Percival’s Island. Just across the bridge there is an overpass. Hike down near the water and you’ll find it!
Becky - Beautiful pictures, you and Jeremiah are so good at capturing all of the various moods of your subjects! I am so glad to know there is a tree like that in this area. I will have to take the kids to see it when we get homesick for NZ.
Colling Photography - Thank you ladies! The train at the end was a nice surprise, so we were happy to take advantage of that. Jenna thank you for the kind words, we hope you and Daniel are doing well!
Jenna Sosa - I absolutely love them!!! What a redeeming experience! Three cheers for Kathy, Jeremiah & and the amazing couple!
sherri lynn - They are SO cute together! All of these are really good because they just look good together! My favorites are the ones on the path and the ones on the tree. And hello kissing in front of the train – so fun!!
