Even though we’re only two months into 2012, if you are getting married in Summer of 2012/13 and haven’t booked a photographer as yet, then I’d advise you to start looking! Over the past few years, I’ve noticed that couples will generally start looking to book their Wedding photographer about 6 months prior to their day. But over the past couple of months, there seems to be a huge change, and couples have been enquiring for wedding dates upto two years in advance! I’m not sure whether this is the same all around, but I am now booking 2013 dates. December 2012 is almost completely booked and I’ve been recieving enquiries, and bookings, for November 2013! Now whether this is something that’s just occuring in Geelong, or whether it’s a change in the photographic and wedding industry in general, I’m not sure. But the best advise I can give anyone that’s looking to book Photography By Riccardo for their wedding day is to send an enquiry through with regards to your wedding date as soon as you decide so I can check availability. Demand is becoming great and unfortunately I am unable to hold wedding dates without the appropriate paperwork and retainer being submitted!

Danielle & Glenn
Danielle & Glen were recently married at St. Peter & Pauls Church in Geelong. We had a bit of a windy day, but this can sometimes work in the favour of an experienced wedding photographer. Fortunately, Danielle’s lovely gown from Crocé & Colosimo also came with a lovely veil, so I was able to use that to my advantage in some of her location photos. Of course, what would a wedding be without Hot Rods!! Special thanks to the boys at Dr. Rod Hot Rods! We used a few different locations around the Geelong waterfront for Glen & Danielle’s photography finally ending up with their reception at Capri Receptions.
Merry Christmas
Wishing all my clients and readers of this blog, a very Merry Christmas and all the very best for 2012. It has been an honour to be either your wedding photographer or your family portrait photographer this year. I have been lucky enough to be able to photograph not only here in Geelong, but also in many other locations over the past year and I have enjoyed every minute!
Stay safe on the roads and I look forward to working with you all again in 2012.

Chelsea & Karl
The beautiful summer’s day and ample time for their wedding photography made for a perfect wedding day for Chelsea and Karl. The Perth couple had previously visited Geelong and loved the Geelong Waterfront so much, they decided to use it for the most important day of their lives. Four Points by Sheraton was the venue for their service and then it was off for their location photos. Whilst the bridal party were enjoying themselves, we were approached by a gentleman who kindly enough offered us the chance to photograph in front of a very special mural in the government building. The mural depicts the history of Geelong. Obviously we jumped at the chance! After a quick photo shoot, we were back in the limousine, provided by Aspire Limousines Melbourne and back to the Sheraton for the reception. Special thanks goes to Cornerworks Geelong who did Chelsea’s hair, Smellies Flowers for Chelsea and the bridesmaids floral arrangement, and to Igby Production for the table centrepieces. And of course, it goes without saying, a big thank you to Chelsea and Karl for choosing me as their wedding photographer!
