Adelaide Registry Office Wedding

Cameron & Caroline married in a very intimate, secret (& surprise!) wedding at the Adelaide Registry Office on Grenfell St. Nothing fancy, just love all around. It was one of those mostly sunny Adelaide Winter days, and despite some showers we were able to play with a bit of light on the streets of Adelaide. Which made me one very happy photographer, especially with two such lovely people and their beautiful love to celebrate.

Meagan and Chad's Winter Longview Wedding

Meagan and Chad's Winter wedding at Longview winery was a beautifully relaxed day. I've been loving our sunny Winter days, despite the chill. And we were blessed again to have a gorgeously sunny day complete with a stunning sunset. With all of Meagan & Chad's family and friends together in the one place (one of my favourite parts of any wedding), the atmosphere was gorgeously energetic and fun. Everyone coming together to celebrate love with some great food and wine.

Bianca & Tim's Inglewood Inn Wedding

Bianca and Tim married at the gorgeous Inglewood Inn in the Adelaide Hills on a chilly late Autumn's day. The perfect venue for cooler weather with its warming fires and snuggly atmosphere. With their ceremony set to finish just before sunset we took some pre-wedding portraits on the grounds, starting with a sweet little first look on a bridge. The natural surrounds with an old bridge, ivy, charming cottage, rolling hills, and even sheep and an alpaca were a beautiful setting to explore.

Jayne & Alex's Wedding at the Jade, Adelaide CBD

This was one gorgeous and unique wedding, at the stunning Jade in the Adelaide CBD followed by a winding drive through the hills to Scott Creek. Jayne and Alex's wedding day was a feast for the eyes, with the largest bridal party I've worked with so far. The day was made up of both big beautiful moments, and those special smaller moments between Jayne, Alex and all of their loved ones. As it was said during their speeches, it takes a special kind of couple to be surrounded by so much love, and to have so many close friends and family that the bridal party couldn't be any smaller than 18 people!

Jo & John's Middleton Beach and Garden Wedding

This was a beautiful blend of English country garden meets South Aussie white sandy beach. The whole day had a natural vibe, with a rustic, native feel and a beautiful coming together of John's English background with Jo's Australian background. All the little touches blended in perfectly, from the bridesmaids cute floral skirts to Jo's dad's amazing car, the perfect venue and the warmth and love from all of the guests. It was such a gorgeous day! xx
