Jen & Dan's Gorgeous Red Poles Wedding
My first wedding of 2016 was a gorgeous one, every little details just came together perfectly. The light was low and bright and just glowed. The venue's were full of character and warmth. And of course, Jen and Dan were married in a ceremony just full to bursting with love and happiness.
Rebecca & Alberts City Engagement Portraits Session
I love meeting new people, especially when they're two beautiful souls in love like Rebecca and Albert. People always say Adelaide is so small, because every one knows everyone, and that's one of the things I love about this city! We're all so connected.
Mel & Scott's Beautiful Botanic Gardens & North Adelaide Wedding
Twenty fifteen, what a year that was! I completely loved each and every wedding that I photographed, and what better way to finish a year full of gorgeous weddings than with my 55th wedding for the year on New Years Eve! Mel and Scott’s wedding was so perfect, a casual garden wedding with little details that all came together to create something simply perfect and timeless. Mel’s custom made dress had everyone absolutely speechless (it was just too good!), paired with some sparkly silver shoes; she looked like a vision. Scott scrubbed up very well too! I love the trend of navy suits, to me they’re just a timeless choice.
Louise & Ben's beautiful Barossa Wedding at the Novotel
There are so many things I love in life, just to name a few; good company, good food, good drink, beautiful rolling fields, cute little bubbas, warm Summer days, people in love. And Sunday's gorgeous wedding at the Novotel was full of all of those things and more!
Isobelle & Andrew's Relaxed Willunga Wedding
Sunday was a day full of beautiful things, a soft rainy morning, a bright and sunny afternoon, fun loving and genuine people and such a relaxed vibe. Isobelle and Andrew married in the beautiful surrounds of Middlebrooke Estate in the McLaren Vale. There had been the soft patter of rain and gentle rumble of thunder all morning. But the sun came out with a bright blue sky just in time for their ceremony, on a lush green lawn lined with lush vines.
Viv & Ravi's Beautiful Summer Garden Wedding
We all know how hot Saturday was at a sizzling 43 degrees, but that just added to the perfection of Viv and Ravi’s gorgeous Summer wedding at the Botanic Gardens. I can’t think of many places better to be on a hot day than a beautiful garden, surrounded by cooling greenery, comforting shade and that beautiful burst of fresh garden scent. The botanic garden was full of the smells of trees and flowers, it was amazing!
Liam & Krystel's Cute and Fun Beach Engagement Portraits
I say it all the time, I absolutely love South Australia and couldn't think of a better place as a wedding photographer with such a variety of beautiful locations. When it comes to beach portraits though, I will always say - let's go South!! Our southern coastline is stunning, crystal clear water (or big beautiful waves), long stretches of white sand, rolling barely fields and epic sandy cliffs. On super sunny Friday I headed on down to one of my fave South beaches with the adorable Krystel & Liam. Just 30 minutes before sunset we began our little walk to the beach, where we sat on rocks, got our feet wet, played with seaweed moustaches and finished with a perfect little picnic. I cannot wait to capture your wedding in January guys! xx
My little adventure to the Yorke Peninsula
I truly cherish breaks when I get them, especially when they're with my super hardworking partner! This week just gone we were so lucky to be able to stay at the Hillock's Ocean Pod, right at the bottom of the Yorke Peninsula foot. With absolutely no phone or internet reception, just a relaxing break on a stunning rugged coastline surrounded by barely fields and scrub. I spent most of my time relaxing, and not too much photographing. But the photos I did take I am absolutely in love with. (What a stunning backdrop!) Most of our time was spent, walking, hiking, rock climbing, swimming and wave watching. Along with a lot of good food and drink! Here's a tiny peek at some of our beautiful holiday. xx
Amber & Dan's Warm & Wonderful McLaren Vale Winery Wedding
Saturday was HOT! A sunny and sweaty 39 degrees, but it was beautiful! Amber & Dan's wedding was so fun and warm in every sense of the word. Full of happiness. Every part of the wedding suited Amber & Dan to a T, beautiful wineries, craft wines and beers, a relaxed vibe in the beautiful back yard of Dan's parents house, surrounded by rolling hills, vines and love. Their live band Full Circle was a hoot! And the food was soooo goood. Ducking out at sunset to take photos in the barley field with soft hills in the distance was a photogs dream. Congrats again guys! Your wedding was perfect. xx
Manman & Louis' Traditional Tea Ceremony & Beautiful Stangate House Wedding
Sunday was a wonderful day! I shot one of my first traditional tea ceremonies, and it was so so good! A morning full of laughter, happiness, excitement, love, tradition and of course, tea and gifts. You couldn't help but laugh and smile all morning as the boys performed their games, make-up application and a food "treat" of all 5 flavour types. Sweet, salty, bitter... all in one delicious mouthful, yum. Manman looked so stunning in her beautiful red gown, and following the ceremonies we parted ways briefly as they headed on to Stangate House to set up for their wedding ceremony.
