There are so many decisions (venue/style/dress/flowers/stationery/etc)! So many options and sometimes, the most overwhelming thing for someone to say is…’just make sure it’s a true reflection of yourselves as a couple.’ That sounds nice right?

I’d suggest buying a few magazines like @togetherjournal @hellomaymagazine cut out images you love and organise into categories. Try to stay away from Pinterest! At least in the beginning. It’s important to start with wedding magazines to gather inspiration, because they literally have a start and a finish.

  • It’s me! I’m on a podcast!! 😅⠀ ⠀ Thank you @emilyosmond - who I fully credit for pulling me out of a place where I was feeling stuck with my business.⠀ ⠀ BACK STORY: in 2017 we’d just moved to Brisbane. I was staring down the barrel of having to re-start my photography business for the THIRD time in a new city and country! Not only that, this time around I had a toddler + a newborn and only 2 precious days of childcare to work on my business.⠀ ⠀ After joining The Modern Marketing Collective #tmmcteam Membership + a conversation with @emilyosmond I had a strategy and a plan. A few short months later, I had achieved my goal for the year and was so excited about the future.⠀ ⠀ I hope you find some value in what I share on the podcast, please let me know if you’ve listened (I’ll pop a link in my bio) and what you thought - it would mean so much! 😘

  • This is how I define a beautiful marriage: ⠀ ❤️Feeling free to talk about awkward/vulnerable things without fear of judgement.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Expressing dreams for the future, planning and setting goals together.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Supporting each other’s dreams, checking in and genuinely being interested.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Cleaning up your babies/dogs vomit without complaint.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Doing household chores without being asked.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Not being afraid of conflict, arguments and hard conversations knowing that ultimately they will bring you closer.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Putting the other persons needs before your own.⠀ ⠀ ❤️Knowing that through it all - you’re just two imperfect people that refuse to give up on each other.⠀ ⠀ What does a beautiful marriage mean to you? Let me know 👇🏻 #letlovebloomco #theloveclubco

  • I bought a dream life journal from @kikki.k and started writing in it today.⠀ ⠀ One of the questions was - “what could you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?” There were so many things this question trigged for me. ⠀ ⠀ More self care.⠀ More meaningful conversations.⠀ More focus on relationships.⠀ More action on my ideas.⠀ ⠀ Less comparison.⠀ Less striving.⠀ Less frustration towards my kids.⠀ ⠀ I wrote out my biggest dreams, the things I’m afraid to tell people. The ones that scare me, but equally excite me.⠀ ⠀ What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? What would you have less of, and more of in your life? There’s something so powerful in getting them out of our heads and onto paper. Have you ever done that? Let me know! 👇🏻 Vendors for gorgeous reception: Installation: @katedawesflowerdesign⠀ Rigging, lighting, furniture: @avideas⠀ Marquee: @exceleventhire⠀ Catering: @winendinem⠀ Balloons: @babyandbirthdayballoons

  • Isn’t this just the cutest, fluffiest ring bearer you’ve ever seen?! I love that Anastasia and Cameron chose to have their fur-baby play a significant part in their wedding ceremony, he was so well behaved too. 🥰 🐶 #katerobinsonweddings

  • How do you choose a wedding photographer that’s right for you? *tap the bookmark to save this post*⠀ ⠀ 1. STYLE - you need to love their photography style and look. Is their editing style and use of light consistent with all of their work?⠀ ⠀ 2. FEEL - ask yourself: how do their previous couples look in their images? Are they relaxed, calm, happy? Or do they look slightly uncomfortable? Chances are, that’s exactly how you’ll feel when you’re behind their camera too.⠀ ⠀ 3. PERSON - go beyond the images, and make sure you get a feel for the photographers personality. This is SO IMPORTANT you guys. Yes you might fall in love with the images, but there’s a person behind the camera - a person who will have a presence on your wedding day. You want your photographer to seamlessly blend in with your guests so they can capture those candid moments. Your photographer can often dictate the vibe on a wedding day, so choose someone you connect with!⠀ ⠀ 4. TRUST. Your wedding memories are precious and valuable. You need to trust your photographer without reservation. Look at their experience, read the reviews, watch the client testimonials, and see if their work has been featured or published.⠀ ⠀ Got any questions for me? My calendar is filling for next year, so I’d love to hear from you to see if we’d be a right fit!⠀ ⠀ Laura & Charlie’s wedding (pictured) second shooting for my beautiful friend @lobbyolivia 💕⠀

  • ✨ let LOVE BLOOM ✨ a name put to something that’s been brewing in me for over a year.⠀ ⠀ ....an idea to create something that will strengthen relationships.⠀ ⠀ BACK STORY: I’ve been a wedding photographer for over 10 years. I have witnessed heartfelt vows, the most sacred promises. I have captured the tears of joy, I have photographed indescribable joy.⠀ ⠀ And yet.⠀ ⠀ The statistics still show 1 in 3 marriages will end in divorce.⠀ ⠀ It deeply saddens me when I see some of my couples are no longer together. I’ll never know the back stories, I’ll never know what went wrong...and I get it, I do. I’ve been with Sam for nearly 15 years, and it hasn’t always been sunshine and roses.⠀ ⠀ Relationships take work. So. Much. Work. They take sacrifice. Commitment. They go through seasons. I don’t think there is enough resources to support us with our relationships.⠀ ⠀ In this industry we SO much emphasis on the wedding day. What if we put that much effort into making our relationships beautiful too?⠀ ⠀ My vision for Let Love Bloom is to create a community for those who want to THRIVE in their relationship. You don’t want to settle for mediocre, you believe MORE is possible.⠀ ⠀ I have ALL sorts of ideas in how this will happen, but for now - it will be simply through sharing quotes every now and then on this account.⠀ ⠀ I’m going do an insta LIVE today 12pm to chat more about Let Love Bloom and I’d love to see you there.

  • Hey friends! There’s a few new faces around here 👋🏻 so here’s 10 facts about me that may surprise you...! And hopefully you won’t unfollow me after haha. ⠀ 1. I’m a MEGA sweet tooth. Chocolate and cake are my weakness (I can’t have cake in the house because I’ll literally eat all of it 🙊).⠀ ⠀ 2. My big toes are double jointed, I can bend them right back to my foot...haha gross right?! ⠀ 3. I’ve photographed destination weddings in NZ, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Bora Bora, Utah...Europe is next on my bucket list!⠀ ⠀ 4. Most people call me Kate, but my real name is Kathryn, and Sam still calls me that. I actually changed my name to Kate when I started my business because I thought it sounded better than “Kathryn Robinson Photography” 😂⠀ ⠀ 5. I love living in Brisbane, but I miss the seasons! 🍁 ⠀ ⠀ 6. I trained myself to be a morning person and I now I wake up naturally around 5 or before.⠀ ⠀ 7. It’s my dream to create something that will strengthen relationships! More on that tomorrow...⠀ ⠀ 8. I have 2 coffees a day. Long blacks ☕️ ⠀ ⠀ 9. I LOVE libraries. I could spend hours there browsing the shelves, reading and soaking up the peaceful atmosphere.⠀ ⠀ 10. I LOVE the beach and will always try to get in the water (no matter the time of year).⠀ ⠀ Now I’d love to hear from you! Can you relate to me on any of these things?! Hopefully I’m not the only weird one haha. Thanks to beautiful @lobbyolivia for taking this snap of me at one of my favourite wedding locations @kooroomba_weddings ❤️
