On sunny Friday morning I had the joy of witnessing and capturing Lou & Ryan's beautiful little elopement at Seppletsfield. Originally from opposite sides of the world, and with a beautiful little baby on the way, there was no sense in waiting to become husband and wife. Their ceremony was short, sweet and perfect, surrounded by good company, good wine and a stunning setting.

What a wedding this was! Sarah and Nick told me that they were looking forward to just having the best day ever with all their close friends and family. That is was going to be so much fun! And they were not wrong at all. Their wedding day was full of love, laughter, good food, good conversation, dancing and such a cool vibe. Their choice of venue, Brooklyn Farm, provided the perfect rustic and relaxed backdrop. And their own personal touches, from the stunning wedding dress, paisley tie, gorgeous florals and awesome little touches (like a golden t-rex!) really made it their own day.

I love photographing secret, little elopements in Adelaide. They have a beautiful intimacy that is so special to witness and capture. Sam & Aaron married with their 3 daughters, immediate family and closest friends as their only witness in a heart felt and personal ceremony by the gorgeous Kate from Blissful Ceremonies. (The other half of sister business Our Wild Love Elopements).

Maddie & Harry's wedding was a very me memorable one for me, not just because of the crazy weather! But also because of how beautiful they and their family are inside and out. With genuine love, smiles and affection for each other. So when they said that they were visiting SA again with their beautiful new son Beau and Maddie's parents Sharon & Peter, I was very excited to be asked to capture some family portraits for them! :)

On Saturday I took a lovely drive down South to Brooklyn Farm in the rolling hills of Myponga. Where I was greeted by the biggest smile from lovely bride Amber as, dressed in a towel and surrounded by loved ones, family, friends and her groom Ken, everyone put together their finishing touches for a heart felt wedding ceremony.

I'm fairly sure I didn't see the smile leave Amber's face or the love leave Ken's eyes for the entire day. It was one of the most heart warming and relaxed weddings I've had the pleasure of capturing.

Saturday was a gorgeous day. With drizzles of rain, dramatic skies and a beautiful love story. As Alex & Em prepared for the day, there was a buzz of excitement and nervous anticipation. The big day was here in the blink of an eye, and after so much hard work.

Arriving at Anderson' Hill, I was greeted with dramatic, dark skies and spattering's of rain. "What's the plan?" I asked as the rain added spots to our outfits. With a big smile Alex said, we're going with the lawn! I'm sure it'll be great! And it was.

Last night I met an absolutely delightful soul, and captured some natural head shots for her and her publisher. Lia is a friend of a friend, and she has been described to me as a local female entrepreneur, bike shop owner, and published author of the awesomely funny “the Fortunes of Ruby White”. She is the BEST cook and loves gardening. Meeting her with glass of red in hand, beautiful friend by her side, and a smile that could light up an entire room, it was instantly evident that she is an amazing woman!

On Saturday I captured Kirsty & Peter's gorgeous Chapel Hill wedding, and it was an absolute treat! These two are so down to earth, so real and so kind, and their wedding had exactly the same vibe. True friends, loving family, a relaxed atmosphere, gorgeous yet simple Australian native styling and a heart warming authenticity.

On lovely sunny Friday afternoon I caught up with the sweetest, cutest couple, Jen & Trent at Semaphore Beach for some engagement portraits. It was a gloriously sunny afternoon, and we took full advantage of Semaphores charm, from the beach, to the jetty, to the scrubby dunes and the old tram station. I even had a little play with my physics prism to add some rainbows. It was a great afternoon, and I cannot wait for their wedding in March! xx

Australia Day was very different for me this year. Instead of (just) enjoying a beer with friends whilst listening to the Triple J Hottest 100 Count Down, I had the pleasure of capturing a beautiful love story.
