It's that time again folks! The time where we grab a cuppa and sit down with one of our amazing WEDDING VENDORS to get a little insight into their lives and learn more about their business. In the spotlight this week is Sydney Wedding Photographer WE ARE ORIGAMI - which is made up of husband and wife team David & Belle. Connecting and forming a relationship with your wedding photographer is an important part of the planning process and by learning a little more about them to start with, it helps you to refine your choices.

WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO BECOME A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER? I actually came across photography by accident thanks to my wife! I remember that I only owned my first camera and took my very first image in late 2010. I remember it took me ages to figure out what the term DSLR even stood for! I never thought I would have ever been a photographer but within 6 months of picking up that very first camera, I knew it was what I wanted to do for a living. I started to live and breathe photography every day since. A friend of a friend then asked me to capture a half day wedding and I can't believe from that one wedding, it led to well over 100 weddings and counting to this day!

TELL US A BIT ABOUT YOUR PATH TO GET TO WHERE YOU ARE NOW: I had been working a corporate finance job dealing particularly with the financial well-being of families for almost seven years. I always thought I'd forever be in the finance industry (to be honest, I actually really enjoyed it!) but then I came across this thing called a camera. And from then on, I never looked back. I guess I just happened to find something I loved even more than my job at the time! Best decision I ever made becoming a full time wedding photographer. And somewhere further down the track, I discovered film. That took love to the next level :)

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE? Soft and romantic in an honest, fun and unique way that combines documentary and fine art styles.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT WEDDINGS? The frantic yet just-the-right type of pace on the day. I love being in the moment with our couples and having the opportunity to witness and capture the seamless supply of beauty. What tops it all off is waiting for the film scans to come back to me! I'm just as excited as the couple when I receive back the images!

SHARE YOUR FAVOURITE IMAGE WITH US AND TELL US WHY: I love everything about this image below. The textures, colours, details, emotions and the love that this image evokes!

CAN YOU RECALL YOUR FAVOURITE WEDDING EXPERIENCE? Our very own wedding! :) But if it's one where I was the photographer, I'll definitely have to say one from earlier this year in Kyoto Japan! It was such an amazing destination trip where I practically spent the whole time with the bride, groom and their families. It was so fun, laid back and insanely gorgeous!! (Not to mention the best food!)

ASIDE FROM FAMILY & FRIENDS, THREE THINGS YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT? My phone, Studio Ghibli and my Contax!

WHERE WOULD WE FIND YOU ON A SUNDAY MORNING? At home chilling out with my wife Belle! The simple pleasures of life!

HOW WOULD YOU SPEND YOUR IDEAL DAY OFF? We're either jumping onto the ferry to head somewhere for brunch, driving to somewhere unknown or at home having coffee and watching a movie! Since we'll be expecting a little bubs fairly soon (October), I guess I'll spend anytime I have off playing with her :)
