Kuitpo forrest (at least for me) feels like an under utilised location for portraits. It's such a gorgeous spot, and very unique too. (It's a forrest in South Australia, come on! 😍) The light shines strongly through the tall trees creating puddles of light amongst the shadows. And in our South Australian forrest, you can also find beautiful tall pockets of kangaroo grass glistening in the sun. On this particular evening meeting Hannah and Simon for their engagement portraits, we were also blessed by the hundreds of butterflies investigating native flowers. Hannah and Simon are so gorgeous inside and out, and such a lovely couple to frolic through the forest with for their engagement portraits. I can't wait for your wedding guys! xx

What a perfect Adelaide wedding this was! Showcasing not one, or two, but three of our great locations! With the wedding ceremony at the beautiful Penny's Hill Winery in McLaren Vale, to bridal portraits in the magnificent Kuitpo forrest, and capping everything off with a big celebration at the funky Kentish in North Adelaide. It was all just perfectly balanced and diverse in the most complimentary way.

When I first walked in the door on Friday morning I could not stop squealing "everything is so pretty!!" From the bridesmaids gowns, to the gorgeous flower crowns, Camilla’s beautiful lace wedding gown, (all of the outfits really), the hair, makeup, flowers, styling, beautiful happy smiles, pink fluffy slippers, everything. Including Camilla’s parents gorgeous property, with rolling hills and vineyards and a gorgeous natural setting of gums and the quintessential, semi-rural Barossa property.

Jess & Jordan had a beautifully intimate wedding at the gorgeous country stay of Marybank in the Adelaide Hills. (Now one of my top 5 venues!) With just their closest family and friends surrounding them with love and joy, a few tears shed, and as always a perfect ceremony by Pen (number 250!), it was a simply perfect day.

After photographing Justin & Iwonka's wedding a bit over a year ago, I felt I had met two genuinely lovely and authentic people. So when they announced that a little one was on the way, I was very excited! Beautiful inside and out, it's no wonder their baby girl Delilah is so gorgeous. It's so special for me to be able to continue documenting the significant moments in a couples life after their wedding. And even better when we can form real friendships.

This was a magical wedding day set amidst the gorgeous scenery of Angaston in the Barossa Valley. Lou and John planned their day to be elegant and classic, which they pulled off with impeccable style. I have to say that their marquee set up was one of my favourites, with gorgeous fairy lights, chandeliers, a live band and amazing floral arrangements.

What an absolutely beautiful wedding this was in every single way. Jess and Brad's wedding was rustic but modern, with delicate mints, greys and an abundance of white casting a gorgeously elegant colour pallet for the day. Both Brad and Jess got ready for their big day at the Novotel, so close but completely out of sight from each other. With many of their family and friends also staying at the Novotel, it had a great vibe about it! Full of fun and excitement.

Amber & Dan's engagement portraits session at the beach on Tuesday at sunset was so much fun! The session started with hugs, was full of smiles and ended with very wet pants for Dan. The water was finally not freezing! And with waves lapping the sand and splashing Amber and especially Dan, it was a fun and laughter filled session.

This would be one of my dream weddings. A long 5 course lunch starting with canapés and finishing with extra cake. (I am a massive foodie though, what can I say?) Megan and Jonathan were two of the most relaxed and excited people I've seen before a wedding ceremony. With tears of joy they married during the most heartfelt and lovely ceremony by Camille. Following their ceremony, group and family photos it was straight into the relaxed festivities! With lawn games, delicious canapés, two entrees, two mains, dessert and cake. Gorgeous floral arrangements on the one long table in the perfect weather outside. A buzz of laughter and conversation, beautiful wines and loving speeches.

I believe that South Australia is such a beautiful place. Gorgeous rugged coastlines, amazing wineries and absolutely stunning outback scenery in Country Flinders Ranges. When Keziah and John asked me to photograph their Blinman wedding at the Family's station north of Wilpena Pound I was beyond excited! I love the dusty red earth, rolling Flingers Ranges, dry creek beds, Emus, Roos and beauty of this place.

We have had a very sunny Winter this year! And I really felt like Jake & Jess' wedding day was a great summary of this years winter weather. From overcast skies to brilliant bursts of warm sunshine. Home-baked pies instead of cake, an amazing bride who did so many of the personal touches (including all the pies and florals!) herself, and an adoring and fun loving groom. Jake & Jess' was just a little bit amazing, and the best way to get another busy wedding season rolling.

This was one of those beautiful little elopements where everything felt as though it came together perfectly. And proof that despite the weather, your day can still be every beautiful thing it needs to be. Liz and Dean eloped at the gorgeous Bonney Berg Bed and Breakfast in the Adelaide Hills at Cromer, near Birdwood. Their beautiful host Bron made sure everything ran perfectly, witnessing their wedding, providing delicious meals and such a beautifully welcoming environment with access to their stunning property and grounds. She also let us borrow her floral arrangements to create a lovely, loose and rustic bouquet. I still cannot believe that the flower is a cabbage! How very cool.
