ash + jo // private property

Ok, this spiel comes from a bit of a selfish place…initially. Almost ten years ago I paid money, I lined up, I pushed my way to the front, I jumped and screamed and sang my guts out at many a Sundance Kids gig! I also bought merchandise and lined up for autographs…if you’d have told me that however long later I’d be in a room with this same band jamming while they got suited up for a wedding I wouldn’t have believed you. And could I have ever been prepared for the exceptional love and epic event I was about to experience….nup!

I was pretty chuffed to be asked to document the wedding of one and only front man Ash Gale! So I was already giddy for this day, but nothing could have prepared me for the absolute emotion and surreality of the entire thing! Ash chose the best girl to marry; sweet, completely lovely, kind natured, deeply in love and drop dead gorgeous I should also mention! She also made her own wedding gown, that was just one of the details that blew us away. Ash is cool too.

The Gales Everybody.

A rock star wedding hashtag for a rockstar couple, I mean who even are these people who hired us?! I want them to know my depth of appreciation for having us and for giving me one of my favourite days I have experienced to document. It made me fall in love with this job all over again and made clear what weddings should be about…100% you!

I only hope I did them, their story and what went down at The Hampton’s, justice.
