Roanna & James' Marybank Farm Wedding
Roanna & James’ beautiful wedding at Marybank Farm was the last “larger” wedding that I was able to capture before the Corona Virus Health pandemic locked weddings down (to 5 people max) nationwide. What an unbelievable time, and how unbelievably special that Roanna and James could marry with their closest family and friends. After capturing their adventurous engagement portraits in 2019 I couldn’t wait for their wedding. Knowing it would be both beautiful and “chill” at the same time. And it was! Gorgeous florals, a stunning location, casual, classy and intimate. So many good things. Even cows in the vineyard, how do you beat that?
Anna & Dion's Goolwa Wedding
Anna & Dion’s wedding was a relaxed, rustic and romantic Australiana affair on a grgeous family property overlooking the water in Goolwa. With many a pelican flying by they had a perfect ceremony on a lush green lawn, their charming marquee decorated with the perfect amount of beautiful flowers and fairy lights overlooking the moment. One of the lucky few couples who squeezed in just before the wedding restrictions were introduced. Such a beautiful day and what a blessing to have shared it with so many loving friends and family. ❤︎
Dan & Caity's Longview Winery Wedding
Man did these guys know how to party. I could totally relate to what Dan & Caity were excited about for their wedding day; “spending time with family & friends that they don’t often get to see all in the one place”. It’s one of my favourite aspects of any wedding! The gathering of your loved ones all in one place, to celebrate love! Dan and Caity and all of their guests all knew how to have fun too. (Just check out that dedication at the gatrter and bouquet toss). With senitimental touches throughout the day, a tonne of laughter, and plenty of dancing feet, in the stunning surrounds of Longview Winery. It was just a bloody good day.
Sarah & Jacob's McLaren Vale Wedding at Barn1890
Sarah & Jacob are such fun, loving and easy going poeple that were an absolute blast to spend the day with. Marrying at one of my favourite wedding venues and surrounded by down to earth and happy friends and family. Their day reflected them well! Fun and laid back with hints of understated glamour. Celebrating with some of the best suppliers in Adelaide, putting on an outdoor garden party that made the most of the gorgeous weather and vibes. I’m still struggling to get over the delicious orange glow of that cloudless day’s sunset.
Gen & Scott's Barossa Valley Winery Wedding
After having a beautiful wedding in Singapore, Gen & Scott wanted their Aussie wedding to be a relaxed day with an Australiana vibe. Luckily Lambert Estate’s Winery put on a fine show with their local wildlife (roos) stopping by for a little nibble on wine grapes. As well as friendly staff, and great food and wine too of course! Perfect for their fmaily & friends to relax and enjoy the special day.
Jen & Dan's Natural Portraits at Maximillian's in Verdun
I adored everything about this session! From getting to catch up with an awesome previous wedding couple of mine (who had an amazing party), meeting their cute cute cute little one in an adorable yellow onesie, more cuddles with energetic Roxy the dog, and an awesome location surrounded by vineyards in the hills. xo
Cassie & John's Small & Intimate Wedding at the Adelaide Botanic Gardens
Cassie and John’s small and intimate wedding at the Adelaide Botanic Gardens was a celebration of love in front of their closest family and friends. A day that was both stunningly and timelessly styled, and casual and fun. The weather was refreshingly cool compared to the warm day before, and the gardens so green. It was perfect afternoon.
Tori & Henry's Maximillian Wedding, Adelaide
It was an incredibly hot day on Tori & Henry’s wedding day, quite possibly the hottest of the Summer. But that didn’t stop them from having a beautiful day. A loving ceremony at St Peter’s Girls, photos in the nearby little scrub and a wonderful evening celebrating at Maximillians as the sun set and a change in the weather gently rolled in.
Justin, Iwonka, Delilah & Juliet's Family Portraits
It's awesome when clients become friends, and then their family grows, and you get to take photos of (& cuddle) their gorgeous little babies. Justin and Iwonka recently welcomed their second daughter Juliet into the world, and she is just as adorable as her sister Delilah. Like we did for their last family portraits, we started at their home before heading outdoors. This time to the beach, sunshine and blue seas. Thanks for having me again guys! :) x
Flick & Aaron's Carclew House Wedding, North Adelaide
Flick & Aaron’s wedding was full of so much love and emotion, it was saturated with it in the best possible way. Open, honest, raw, beautiful and surrounded by good people. Not to mention a delicious and fun food truck, ice-cream bike, amazing music, gorgeously fun outfits and stunning decorations. Thank you so much for having me guys, it was the perfect Summer wedding.
