Georgie & Chris' Longview Winery Wedding
This was a wedding day full of all the good things. Fairy bread, close friends, loving family, a stunning setting, some cool cars, lots of laughs and a night filled with dancing. It felt like a casual party, just fun. No stress, good food, drinks, dancing and all of Georgie & Chris' nearest and dearest.
Ellie and Brad's Ayers House & Adelaide Botanic Garden Wedding
This beautiful little wedding in the Adelaide CBD is what I picture as the perfectly elegant and timeless wedding. It was a day full of fun, laughter and lots of love in the room. With beautiful greens from living plants surrounding us not just during portraits at the Botanic Gardens, but also in the gorgeous reception room of Ayers House. Coupled with the endless charm of the classic decor of Ayers House, and you have beauty all around.
Catherine & George's Maslin Beach Engagement Session
After moving to Maslin Beach, I did as I always do and set out to explore the area. What I didn't expect to find, literally almost on my doorstep, was a unique and beautiful location I would be dying to use for a photography session. With a very Aussie reserve, rolling red, eroded hills, and just a short walk through this, a secret entrance to a beautiful stretch of white sandy beach.
El & Tom's Bungaree Station Country Wedding in South Australia
Bungaree Station in the Clare Valley is one of my favourite wedding venues, and I always forget just how special it really is until I go back. El & Tom were one of those couples who perfectly suited Bungree station too. They and their wedding day were authentically relaxed, a proper country wedding but with a definitive touch of elegance. Suiting the venues long country roads, rolling paddocks, rustic buildings but definite country garden charm.
Kelly, Erin and Archie's Gorgeous Family Session at the Beach
This was a family session that melted my heart a little bit, it was so special. Kelly and Erin initially booked me to photograph their wedding a few years ago, but when it looked like Australia wouldn't be getting their act together on same sex marriage for a long while they decided to postpone the celebrations. But not to postpone living their life, a happy couple together with a happy future, ready to start at family. And what a gorgeous family!! I just wanted to give Archie the biggest, squishiest cuddles she is so adorable!
Zoe and Sam's Private Aussie Country Wedding at Carrickalinga
Every now and then you meet a couple who has a love so real it melts your heart (and maybe tears you up a bit too), this was one of those times! From the moment I met Zoe and Sam at their awesome private property near Carrickalinga I knew this would be one of my favourite weddings... With a theme that was Aussie beach meets Aussie bush, and a breathtaking setting combining with such a beautiful couple, inside and out, completely in love. How could it not be?
Daniel & Carmen's Willunga Beach and Winery Wedding
Daniel & Carmen's wedding at Port Willunga Beach and Serafino Winery was a perfect example of the beauty McLaren Vale has to offer. It was also a beautiful representation of a perfect multicultural wedding, and a gorgeous love story that brought two lovers from across the seas together. Carmen from Spain, Daniel a local Aussie guy, destined to be together.
Jodie & David's Beach Road Winery Wedding
Sometimes you see two people who are just meant to be together, and that is a beautiful thing. Jodie & David's Wedding was my very last wedding of Summer (can you believe it!?) Every interaction I had with them showed a beautiful love and connection that was a joy to capture on their perfect wedding day. A small, intimate and lovingly styled cocktail wedding at Beach Road Wines in McLaren Vale. With soulful acoustic tunes from the talented Shannon Lloyd, a perfect as always, personalised ceremony by the gorgeous Pen Carrick and bright pops of colourful flowers by Turquoise Rose dotting the scene.
Alice and Marty's West Beach Sailing Club Wedding
This was such a beautiful and relaxed wedding. The Adelaide Sailing Club at West Beach makes a lovely wedding venue. With friendly staff, gorgeous beach views and a very relaxed atmosphere. Very well suited to Alice and their guests, who were all so friendly, fun, gorgeous and chill. With amazing eclectic floral arrangements, great tunes from the Girls Next Door and stunning decor from the donut wall to the floral chandelier and lighting. Everything was perfect.
Courtney and Kristian's Coriole Vineyard Wedding
This was such a beautiful wedding. Glamorous with a hint of vintage, at the gorgeous setting of Coriole Vineyards. Having met in Europe when Courtney was backpacking, and setting up a life together in Norway with their two beautiful boys, it was the first time all of their family had been together in the same place. But you wouldn’t have been able to tell that, as the buzz of friendliness and happy chatter was a constant background noise the entire night. As was the amazing tunes from the Baker Boys Band that rang out across the vineyard.
Laura & David's Partridge House Garden Gazebo Wedding
Laura and David's wedding was a beautifully relaxed, garden wedding at Partridge House in Glenelg. With gorgeously subtle and romantic decorations creating an inviting space in their reception gazebo. Laura looked absolutely stunning in her Stephanie Allin wedding gown, and so did her bridesmaid with their very cool pink heels. And with one of David's groomsmen playing the music for the ceremony, the day felt extra close and special.
