Aesops Greek Restaurant

Sunday, February 10th, 2008 by Kapa

Many would have heard of Aesop, or at least be familiar with Aesop’s Fables with his inspirational stories of life and moral education. In the heart of the city of Sydney, there is fine Greek restaurant that goes by the name of Aesops.

Aesops pride themselves on two things, great food and a great atmosphere. Here are some random images taken at Harrison’s christening.

Tommy Tsonis – Bouzouki Player

Tommy Tsonis - Bouzouki
If you’re ever wondering how to liven up an event, let’s make that a Greek event, there’s no better way than to bring in a talented bouzouki player like Tommy Tsonis. I’ve seen him a number of times in my travels and he never fails to entertain and bring in some kefi (atmosphere) to an event.

Here he is with both Harrison & the godfather.

Crumbs Cake Art

As an event photographer cakes don’t really do much for me. I normally take a few shots of it on its own, some when it’s getting cut, sometimes I may even get a piece. Today I was amazed by the level of detail and uniqueness of this baptism cake for Harrison’s Christening and ended up taking over a dozen frames on it’s own, definitely a first for me.

At a glance this doesn’t look like anything special, all they did was write a few words with icing. Now have a look at what’s underneath, the base is also make of icing and has been intricately detailed to give a cobblestone effect.

Thoughtful Trinkets

Sunday, September 9th, 2007 by Kapa

At Steve’s Christening, I found out that everything was supplied by Thoughtful Trinkets at Carlton. I liked what I saw and here are a few things that captured my eye.

Not just a Christening Box, a great metal car with pedals too.

The candle was amazing, check out the detail in the 2nd photo.

The bounbouniere was simple yet classy, chocolate hearts mixed with the sugar coated almonds, note the colour match with the car.
