Something happened last night.
I was at the Powerhouse here in Brisbane shooting the wedding of Bren and Chrissy. It had been a great day, the weather was perfect and everything was on track. I was walking around the room the way I usually do, always on the lookout for something to take photos of. After a while, I get into it. I’m in “the zone”. Not much can disturb me. This night was no different. Everybody was in a good mood and it made my job even easier. I was in the zone alright.
But then he started singing.
Behind a keyboard a man with a very big voice started singing.
And boy did he sing.
I found myself putting my camera down, just watching him, listening to every bit of shade in his voice and how he played. I wasn’t there as a guest, but I couldn’t help myself, this guy sang like I don’t know what. A keen singer myself, I almost wanted to dislike him a little. His control was outstanding. I’d kill for that voice. I later told the groom, Bren, that was some of the best music I have heard at a wedding. And I go to a few, let me assure you.
The man with the voice is Simon Watson.

Oh, and congrats to Bren and Chrissy – thanks for having me!
