Natalie Howe Photography as gone FULL TIME!

Yup, that's right, Monday just gone I lauched my business full time. Leaving PwC was not an easy decision after 16 years of employment, but I knew to make my dream really come true, I had to take the plunge and let go of the safety rail. Will I fall? Who knows, but my first week started off with a whooping 9 shoots. I can only be happy with that. I know there will be quite times, and as long as I'm prepared for them, then I think I will be fine. I have a lot of worked lined up in the next few months followed by a good well deserved break (unless the phone starts ringing!).

I am looking forward to this new chapter in my life, it's a dream come true for me to be able to do something I am so passionate about as a job. "Job?" nah.... doesn't feel like it. I enjoy myself every day (well.... not on the days the computer is in a bad mood!) And as long as I enjoy it, I'll keep doing it.

Thanks for all your support and wishes during this huge transition, and make sure, if you want a photographic job done, give me a call!

Signing off.

Nat : )

Well, haven't I been a busy bee!!

ANGELA & PHILIP - 18 APRIL 2009

The most recent wedding I shot was last weekend. Angela just made and absolutely adorable bride. We had a lot of fun shooting. The ceremony was held at the famous St James Anglican Church at Pitt Town followed by photos at Parramatta Park and then The Crown Plaza for the Reception.

JENNIFER & BENJAMIN - 11 April 2009

Every couple I photograph are deeply in love, of course they would be, otherwise they wouldn't commit to each other, but every now and then I come across a couple that are so in love that they want to shout it from the roof tops and they want the whole world to know.

Meet Jen & Ben. They couldn't keep their eyes off each other all day and were both a dream in front of the camera. A huge bridal party with 5 attendees on each side only added to the joy of their special day. I bet my personal best this wedding, with a whooping 2246 images taken, so cutting it down to a few for you to all see was a huge challenge. Ceremony, photos and reception was at the stunning Loxley on Bellbird.

The below shots are a mere snapshot of what was taken on the day. I think they are stunning! (even if I do say so myself : ) )

REBECCA & ALAN - 4 APRIL 2009

Well this was just the cutiest thing! A living breathing "Brady Bunch". Both Rebecca and Alan had 2 adorable children each (Isaac and Candice were Rebecca's and Liam and Aidan was Alan's). Together, they have a huge instant family and poor Candice ends up with 3 brothers! At least she won't get bullied at school. Absolutely beautiful wedding, smiles and laughs all around, and the children had a ball! Thank you so much fow allowing me to be part of your special day!

Ceremony and photos were at The Old Farm, Winmalee and the reception was at the Paceway - Penrith (best reception food I have ever had!)

KIMBERLY & BEN - 28 March 2009

Below are some of the images from Kimberly & Ben's wedding. The ceremony was held at the gorgeous Anglican Church in Springwood with the reception at Oakville House. Gorgeous wedding and adorable couple! Congratulations!
