One of the things I love so much about my job as a wedding photographer is the fabulous people I get to meet and occassionally my clients will transition from paying clients into dear friends and I LOVE THAT!  Talk about job satisfaction!

Laurence and Alison are two such people.  They were one of my first Waiheke Island wedding clients when I moved my business here several years ago and although they live in Wellington, we still keep in touch.  When we visit Wellington we have an open invitation to dinner which is always excellent (thanks Ali) and complemented with a selection of expertly chosen wines (thanks Laurence!).  I tell you;  perks to this job or WHAT!?

As they were from the pre-blog era, here are a couple of shots from their wedding…

Anyway… Laurence is a published author and decided to use one of my photos on the cover of his new book called The Seer.  [Ahem.. blurb alert...] Set in Wellington, The Seer chronicles the life and times of Richard Grimm, destined from birth to become a seer, a man who can predict the future with startling accuracy.  The book follows him from early fame in New Zealand, through the USA and on to disaster in Europe. On his return to Wellington, a chain of events is started that will involve murder and betrayal. It will lead to love…

Book Launch this Thursday 29th July, 7:30 at Jetty Cafe in Petone… all welcome!  (Yes I know that is tonight - I am a couple of days behind myself at the moment!!)
