It was a year from today that the vision to create Freetime Aperture was born….
And what a year it has been, over the past 12 months, Freetime Aperture has grown from a dream to provide Townsville with an event photography service it sorely lacked, to a full service photography business (events, underwater, commercial and portrait photography) with a polished product and a great team. We underwent a brand revamp to bring our image more in line with our belief – “we want to provide customers with the images they want, while having fun along the way”, launched a new interactive website and covered a range of events, the most notable of which were the Young Chamber Awards Night, Luke Pickler Gala Fundraiser and Brace for War.
After a year of evolution, we finally felt that we had a business worthy of presentation to Townsville, and thus we had a business launch/b’day party at the Court Theatre. The night was one to remember with a special edition photo exhibition entitled Townsville: People, Pride, Passion (which showcased Townsville’s local identities in a different light), magic tricks and fire twirling as part of the zany entertainment. Guest were also able to make their own fun by grabbing some props and getting their portraits taken at the mobile portrait studio. Sumptuous food and an open bar all added to a fantastic night. And we couldn’t have done it without the help of all you wonderful people!
A big thank you to Councilor Vern Veitch for launching our business!
We would also like to say a massive thank you to the local identities who gave their time to make our birthday extra special! Les Tyrell, Tony Ireland, Sandra Harding, Kim Cooper, Greg Raines, Peter Brine, Rob Rose, Michelle Graham, Fiona McManimm, and John Carey all generously donated their time to participate in our special edition photo exhibition. Once again, thank you all very much!
And last but not least, we would like our friends in business – Full Throttle Theatre, Bizrich, Queensland Micrographics, Dizzy Magic, Betty Blue & The Lemon Tart, The Confectionary & Party Shop, and Frans and his fantastic fire twirlers, who helped make this event run smoothly!
