Heather & Lucy's Australia Day Celebrations

Heather & Lucy were one of the many couples affected by Covid-19, and with barely any notice at all their wedding plans were changed from an intimate gathering to the lockdown restriction of just 5 people total. But they made the most of it! And married at their close friends house, with tearfully beautiful videos from family and friends wishing them well on the deck and a game of cluedo to end the day. That was just reason 1 of 3 to celebrate!

Not being able to capture their wedding day due to the tight restrictions, I was very excited instead to be able to capture their Australia Day celebrations! A day to celebrate becoming Australian citizens, alongside a housewarming for their beautiful new house. And of course, being able to celebrate being Mrs and Mrs with loved ones. It was a really fun afternoon! With the perfect weather, beaming smiles all around and some great tunes.

Congrats, congrats, congrats to you two beautiful ladies!

Sally & Luke's Country Loxton Wedding

This wedding was a vibe. I absolutely loved hanging out with Sally and Luke at their beautiful family property in Loxton with lovely red earth, vines for miles, and hours of fun. Their day had all of the good things (making for great photo opportunities) from confetti exits (from the ceremony) to sparkler entries (for the first dance), and plenty of champagne sprays. The day was elegant and beautiful, but also relaxed and a fun party for everyone that they loved to celebrate and have a wonderful time.

What a gorgeous wedding. Georgia & Levi married with so many loved ones surrounding them at their church before heading to the beyond-beautiful Inglewood Inn for a night full of dancing, music, and perhaps even a blow-up T-rex suit. Photos were a big part of the day (which I always love) taking place where we took their engagement portraits in Highbury (check out those here x) as well as in the rolling rocky fields in which Inglewood Inn is nestled.
