Stacey & Bradly's Chic Country Wedding

Friday was my first wedding for the Spring, and it was gorgeous! Bradly & Stacey had a very chic country style wedding, full of beautiful rustic touches. I met the guys at their home in two wells, looking great in their Akubras and "wrangler" shirts! During a few quick portraits in the paddock Bradly's super friendly horse was very helpful in taking photos, nudging my face and cameras and keeping a close eye on the shots...

Eryn & Callum's Vintage Rock'n'Roll Inspired Wedding

What a beautiful day Saturday was! The very last Winter Saturday for the year, and it was full of warm sunshine and love as Eryn and Callum tied the knot. Eryn and her bridesmaids Kelly, Richanda and Sam did such an amazing job styling the wedding with a Vintage Rock'n'Roll inspired theme. Everyone looked proper dapper, but I can't help but especially mention how stunning Eryn looked in her ModCloth wedding dress with pops of red in her shoes, flowers and perfect lipstick.

Madeline & Marc's Sunshine Filled Winter Wedding

The long weekend was full of so much sunshine, and for early Winter, that’s some beautiful news! Madeline and Marc’s Sunday wedding was warm, bright and had not one drop of rain in sight. In huge contrast to the engagement session we shared not too long ago in Autumn (which you can see here). They must have gotten all the rain out of the way early, and so their sunny Winter’s wedding day was perfect.

Maddie & Harry's Stormy Mt Lofty Wedding

What a day Friday was! Leading up to the day I have to admit, I was a little bit anxious about the flood warnings, wind warnings, storm warnings and hail warnings for Friday. As always, I ventured to the venue a few days before the wedding to hunt out some snug and warm little hideaways that would be dry and beautiful inside the gorgeous Mount Lofty House. When the day arrived, it was wet and cold, but it wasn't the monster of a day forecasts had made it out to be. In fact, it ended up being quite perfect.

Keith & Jolene's Beautiful Little Registry Wedding

On Friday I had the joy of photographing Keith & Jolene's beautiful little Adelaide registry office wedding. As always, the ceremony was beautifully carried out, short and sweet and full of love. Following the wedding we headed out in to the glorious sunshine (made even more so by the fact we'd just had a week of heavy rain) to the Adelaide Himeji gardens.
