I miss blogging, but traveling has been refreshing and I'm constantly inspired by the places I have been. Cambodia is definitely a kingdom of wonder; the weaving in and out of traffic, the early morning risings of the "egg man" pushing his cart in the empty streets of Phnom Penh, the boom boxing of a wedding that makes us fully aware that a celebration is taking place (ya know just in case the obnoxious yellow and pink decor didn't already scream wedding!), the abundance of exotic fruits, temples galore, bike riding in the countryside while singing my heart out, and shooting amazing weddings.

Mary and Hugh married in Siem Reap towards the end of last year. I love this wedding more than I can squeeze into a sentence. It has always been a dream of mine to shoot a wedding in Cambodia and when Aiden of Eden Images contacted me to shoot a wedding for them, I squealed with delight. I think I had to sit down in a chair and get a hold of myself. Fast forward a few weeks later, I am in Cambodia scaling on the walls of an ancient Khmer temple, soaking in the beauty that is Mary and Hugh, and throughly enjoying myself, humidity and all. 

Mary and Hugh are beautiful people filled with warmth and compassion. They had a small, intimate wedding with their closest friends and family at a 12th century temple called Wat Athvea in Siem Reap. They are both Australians but had lived in Hong Kong and since Hugh is a journalist and news correspondent, they've traveled far and wide, making friends from all over the world. Have I told you how much I love small weddings? If not let me just say that I love that I know all the names of the guests. I love that I was treated like a guest. I love that Mary and Hugh married in Cambodia so that I could shoot their wedding. 

Special thanks to Sonya of Bliss Creations for coordinating this beautiful wedding and FCC for the amazing food. I feel so blessed.
