Wendy & Tony's Surprise Picnic Wedding
SURPRISE! On gloriously sunny Boxing Day Wendy & Tony surprised their family & friends with a fun picnic wedding under the guise of an engagement party. I spent a few moments with Wendy as she prepared for her big day, and everyone was absolutely blown away by how beautiful she looked.
Kadri & Candice's Colourful Victor Harbour Beach Wedding
On bright & sunny Saturday, Kadri & Candice got married surrounded by family & friends in Victor Harbour on the beach. Candice looked amazing with her bright pink hair, colourful bouquet and gorgeous dress, and hubby-to-be Kadri looked absolutely smitten.
Kellie & Mark's Fun Filled Adelaide Wedding
Saturday may have been hot, but that didn't stop Kellie & Mark from having a beautiful, heart felt & fun filled wedding. The bridal party included their gorgeous children, and they were wed in a cute little North Adelaide Church. The following reception & portraits at Semaphore were a perfect place to end their warm (& heart warming) wedding. We even got to take some shots on the dodgem cars!
Dominique & Ben's Magical Encounter Bay Wedding
Yesterday's wedding was one of those special weddings (like all of them really!) that just cemented how much I LOVE my job. Dominique & Ben got married on a beautiful sunny day at Encounter Bay on the Breakwater in front of the Whalers. They had a beautiful sand ceremony & lots of colourful confetti!
Kylie & Karl's Gorgeous Adelaide Beach Wedding
On Saturday I had the pleasure of capturing Kylie & Karl's gorgeous Adelaide beach wedding on Henley Beach and West Beach. It was a beautiful overcast day, and the wind was blowing a gale. Although the hair and flowers may have suffered (& I ended up with a stylish hairdo in homage to Einstein) it made for some amazing wind swept shots. There was so much love between these two, it just fills up the photos ♥ Enjoy your sneak peak!
Natural Fashion Portraits on the Beach
A free Saturday means free time to go on adventures with your bestie to new & beautiful locations. I love to take artistic and beautiful portraits outdoors, to me you can tell so much more of a story in a beautiful location than you can in a studio. This, of course, isn't without it's lighting challenges. One of the hardest times to take a good photo outdoors is on a bright, hot, sunny day, at midday, with no shade. Just unforgiving, bright, white sunlight beaming straight down on top of you. Yesterday we decided to take up that midday challenge in beautiful Victor Harbour & Port Elliot.
Sarah & Ryan's Awesome Adelaide Wedding
Yesterday the gorgeous Sarah & Ryan got married at the Majestic Roof Garden Hotel, followed by some photos in Adelaide City & Rymill Park. The best word I can think of to describe their day was "awesome"! Beautiful locations, gorgeous flowers, wonderful couple and amazing cake byCalliCakes. Enjoy your sneak peak! <3
Frolicking in the Rain at Kuitpo Forest
It was an early start for some photos just after sunrise at the beautiful Kuitpo forest. The unexpected rain may have been a bit chilly, but it didn't stop us from having fun with the camera. Enjoy the little sneak peak :)
Mother & Baby Outdoor Picnic Portraits in Adelaide
For lunch today I got to go out for a picnic with good friend & beautiful new mum Kelly. And of course, the cute-as-a-button little baby Emily came along too. I love taking photos outside, surrounded by beautiful, soft light - and Emily loved it too! With so much to look at and puzzle over. Enjoy this little sneak peak of portraits, and I'll share some more soon!
Kristie & Nick's Colourful Adelaide Registry Wedding
Yesterday's wedding was full to bursting with beautiful colours and beautiful people. A warm 39 degrees didn't dampen any smiles as Kristie & Nick tied the knot at the Adelaide registry office, and took some wedding portraits at the gorgeous Himeji gardens. Congrats guys! And enjoy your sneak peak.
