Apart from the many Weddings and Family Portraits we are commissioned to do during the season, we are often hired to photograph events, parties and functions. Wherever people are out having a good time and celebrating an occasion worth remembering, we like to take the stress off them by capturing all the events and emotions while people are relaxed. This means they don’t have to worry about anything except enjoying the night.

This occasion was the celebration of 80 years of life for a special mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. This was a celebration for Maria on her 80^th Birthday.  The location for this function was a cosy little restaurant in Nedlands called Osteria. It had a very warm Italian feel to it and seemed quite comfortable for all the guests. The staff there were a great crew full of charm and even a little cheeky, and they really got the party happening.

All of Maria’s family were there to celebrate including her treasured Grandchildren who idol her dearly. As part of the formalities of the night, Her eldest Grandson gave a theatrical and heart felt speech expressing his and the families gratitude for a life of love and dedication to her family.

There were some beautiful moments from the night, including the embrace with her children and grand children, the laughs and the emotion and the beautiful smile of a wonderful lady just enjoying the night with those she loved.

The music was provided by a great little band called the Zucchini brothers and many of the partygoers got their shuffling feet onto the dance floor to celebrate in style.Here is a couple of the images from the night capturing the love and spirit.
