Tell us abit about you, Lucy!

I have been a professional photographer since 2004, starting in weddings then, later on adding family photography as I had more and more married couples that I photographed asking me to take pictures of their newborns. I love how I get to see these families multiply and how much their kids grow each year when I get to photograph their family photos or birthday parties. It’s truly an honour! 

I studied fine arts majoring in photography and digital arts and I have always been a people person. So after I graduated from my course I ventured into portraitures and haven’t looked back ever since. Along the way, I also fell in love with cooking and food photography and started my own personal side project in 2012 called www.whodoesthedishes.com – documenting cooks in their kitchen cooking up their favourite dishes.

Tell us about your business.

I love shooting both weddings and families. They both have such different dynamics but equally fun! I am particularly good at capturing both the emotions and details of an event. Many of my clients compliment how my calm personality relaxes them on the day and they can be themselves around me, even their kids. I am happy that I can provide such a service to them.

What inspires you?

My 3-year-old daughter! Since having her I have been learning to see the world through her eyes, it sounds so cliche I know but it’s so true and I am experiencing it a lot which is a blessing. I also love music, colours and textures of plants, cooking, visiting galleries and travelling.

Why do you think having a professional photographer at your events and kids parties is so important?

You might have been planning your kid’s party for months in advance and getting everything looking fabulous for the day. The joy you get from your son/daughter when they see it all come together is so special. Even more so when they are old enough to plan the event with you. Having a professional photographer would give you the ease of having all the details and precious moments captured beautifully. It also leaves you with plenty of quality time to spend with the family and friends on the day. As we all know, a good party always fly by too quickly!

What has been your favourite event to capture so far?

My truly talented friend Daniella of Eve&Co Stationery threw her son the most amazing galactic birthday party. Anywhere I pointed my camera at was just so photogenic! And the best part was Sam the birthday boy had the best birthday party!

With her 14 years of experience photographing weddings and family portraiture, Lucy is highly regarded and trusted by hundreds in capturing their special moments.

Charlie Sleiman is a father of 3 and a husband of 1. For as long as Charlie can remember he has been overflowing with a passion for creativity. In primary school, Charlie was building things when he should’ve been reading things.

In high school, Charlie was focusing on making nunchucks and ninja stars (he secretly wanted to be a ninja) when he should’ve been making a mug holder and sandwich cutter. In his adult life, Charlie studied audio engineering early on when he should’ve gotten a ‘real-job’. The consistency – creativity.

Charlie plays and teaches guitar and just loves taking photos both for work (or not work)!

ZOOM images was born after Charlie’s social posts spread like wildfire and people were asking if he could capture their birthdays, their kids’ birthdays, their engagements, christenings, weddings and almost anything.

Charlie not only loves creating those moments for people that they can look back on in a day, a week, 10 years time and just smile BUT he is also amazing at doing so!

ZOOM images for Charlie is just as much a creative outlet as it is about ensuring that every captured moment is triggering an emotion of joy, happiness, fun and laughter.

At Confetti Fair we have had the pleasure to work with Zoom Images a couple of times. Our first experience was when Charlie shot our Poker Night styled shoot for Issue 7 of our magazine. It was such a fun day!

Charlie was kind enough to take some shots for us at out Issue 7 launch party even though he was invited as a guest not to work!

Charlie is easy to work with and really takes control of the room when he is shooting.

Soooo…
