Ellen, Andrew and Callum's Natural Family Portraits at Home

I love capturing family portraits for old wedding clients, especially after they’ve welcomed a new little one to their family. Ellen and Andrew’s beautiful baby boy Callum was such a joy to photograph in their family home. With his cute pensive face and shy little smiles. Photo memories of all those natural moments together as a family.

Kerry and Scott's Bohemian Forest Wedding in Adelaide, Kuitpo

This was such a magical forest wedding, on Spring solstice in gorgeous Burbrook Forest, Kuitpo, Adelaide. With bare feet grounding them to the earth Kerry and Scott married in nature surrounded by their family, close friends and children. On top of this beautiful and symbolic wedding, involving a promise stone during the exchange of rings, were beautiful bohemian touches. From a chandelier hanging amongst the trees, to lovely lawn games, delicious tapas, cool kombi vans, soulful acoustic tunes and just a welcoming and relaxed vibe. With the festoon lights shining brightly as the sun slowly set, it was just such a great atmosphere.

Ben and Shannon's Beautiful Beach Wedding

Ben and Shannon’s wedding day was very casual and relaxed, not at all formal or stuffy. They had all of their friends and family with them in a big gathering to celebrate. First with a touching ceremony at Sturt’s Cottage in Grange, where many a tear was shed and laughter rang out. Then after some beach portraits, it was on to the Palais in Semaphore, where heartfelt speeches, ample (& delicious food), plus plentiful drinks abounded. Finishing up with some sunset portraits, and a deliciously yolky and hazy sun that magically dipped down to the sea.

Lucia & Scott's Plant 4 Bowden Winter Wedding

Plant 4 Bowden is such a cool and unique wedding venue, a creative hub in the developing suburb of Bowden. The perfect venue in fact for Lucia & Scott's very informal, quirky and cute wedding. A wedding that was all about them, their unique style and everything they love. From the handmade banana & broccoli cufflinks, made by Lucia for Scott (the names of their two cats) to Lucia's gorgeous and non-traditional wedding dress. A large and loving bridal party, friends, family, good food, beautiful music performed by friends and Lucia's dad, and the industrial surrounds of Plant 4 Bowden.

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.
