Andy Halims Family Celebration at the Burswood

Friday the 23rd of January was a celebration for the Halim Family from Dalkieth to the Burswood Entertainment Complex for dinner. This is a great place to eat but if has become the home of the over indulged as far as libations are concerned as the dress standard requirement is very poor at this venue. Home of the yobo as far as i am concerned and not the best place to go for a family function but the Halim Family did enjoy the food. As a note my cloths smell of cigarette smoke today after waiting out the front of Burswood Hotel for 5 minutes as this one of the few places poeple can light up.

The bride and bridesmaids were all stunning in white and beige. Photos were taken at Claisebrook cove in East Perth and the blue shed at Crawley .The reception was at the Marmion Anglers Club in Sorrento. I only took a few candid shots of the brides entrance which are at my gallery as the photographer also had an assistant taking candid shot also.

Wedding at Sacred Heart in Highgate

Jane and Andrew where married on the tenth of January 2009 at The Sacred Heart Church in Mary Street Highgate with photos at Hyde Park ,The Round House in Fremantle and Cliff street Fremantle with their reception at the Old Melbourne Hotel in Milligan Street Perth.

LIONEL SAMSON, (1799-1878), pioneer and merchant, was probably the son of Michael Samson, a member of one of the old established and wealthy families of English Jewry. He read at Magdalen College, Oxford, and later became a member of the London Stock Exchange. Samson arrived at Fremantle in the Calista in August 1829 with personal effects and much merchandise. He took up several land allotments in Perth and Fremantle. Within a year of his arrival he had set up his business as a wine and spirit merchant, importer and auctioneer. His brother William, who had accompanied him, was associated with the venture but after some years moved to Adelaide. Samson maintained his original business interests throughout the rest of his life, adding whaling and other projects to his activities; from 1830 to 1832 he was postmaster-general. In 1842 he returned briefly to England, where he married Frances Levi; they had three sons and three daughters. The business still trades to this day.

Golden Wedding Anniversary at Sandalford Winery

Lynda Wilson arranged for us to pick up their parents on Friday the ninth of January for their golden wedding anniversary from Winthrop and take them to Sandalford Winery where they all had a tour of the vineyard. Followed by lunch , they said the service was slow but two and three quarter hour is about normal for a table of six in most restaurants. Lynda even went to the trouble of requesting a gold ribbon for our limousine to celebrate this once in a life time event.

Wedding of Simon & Diana

Diana and Simon were married at Saint Micheal's church in West Leederville on Sunday the Fourth of January 2009, with photos and refreshments at Harold Boas Park in West Perth Tucked away to the west of the city is a delightful garden that dates back to 1900. Named after a respected city architect and former Perth councilor, Harold Boas, the garden is a creative haven to take a break. There are a number of lakes and waterfalls that add to its character and some beautiful heritage trees and shrubs.. Then we moved onto RENDEZVOUS Observation Hotel at Scarborough to check in and do more photo's at the beach before heading onto the reception at the Marmion Angling Club. I was quite a warm day at 34 degrees and the bride felt somewhat faint from it .
