Sophie and Dale’s wedding was relaxed with a country vibe, and yet also classic and traditional. When Covid-19 foiled their plans to marry on their beautiful property they pulled together and moved their entire day to Uleybury Winery. Which proved to be beautiful, delicious (great food!) and add to the relaxed vibe of the day. We then made sure we had enough time to sneak back to their property for those special photos with their animals and land as the sun set over the fields and distant sea. All while everyone enjoyed Dale’s amazing homemade croquembouche tower, lawn games and good company.

Aleasha & Chris' Feather's Hotel Wedding

Aleasha and Chris’ wedding day was a happy day! All about spending time with their family and friends following an epic first look moment at the Gums Reserve. (Just check out Chris’ heart melting reaction to seeing his gorgeous bride Aleasha for the first time on their day). With loved ones still trapped across borders there were carboard cutouts and video calls to add to the love surrounding them both on the day. And who doesn’t love a first dance involving colourful streamers to wrap up the happy bride and groom in a literal bright and colourful hug.

Emma & Tom's Adelaide Zoo Wedding

The sun was shining on Emma & Tom’s beautiful wedding day at the Adelaide Zoo. Complete with giraffe feeding and bubble guns in lieu of confetti! It was a light hearted and special day, and good fun to walk around all the animal enclosures whilst taking portraits. After that we headed South of the city for a relaxed reception at Rydges with sunset views from the top floor. Thanks again for having me guys, it was a great day!! x

Becc & Anton's Mount Lofty House Wedding

Becc and Anton’s wedding at Mount Lofty House was not only beautiful, but also a lot of fun! Light hearted from start to finish, and full of love. The love they have for each other, and that their family and friends have for them. Mount Lofty House is a gorgeous venue and they always look after their guests so well. This made the day even more relaxed. Along with those views of rolling hills and beautiful surrounds, with perfectly styled florals to compliment - the day was stunning!

Ebony & Aiden's Port Germein Farm Wedding

Head north in South Australia and it won’t take too long to reach a unique beauty all its own. Red dusty earth stretching out to low lying ranges, large old gum trees lining dry creek beds and crystal clear blue ocean waters right up to Port Augusta and then continuing East. It’s a place I love to travel any time I need to feel grounded. So it was an absolute no brainer for me when Ebony & Aiden asked me to capture their wedding day at the family farm in Port Germein.

Grace & Jared's Ekhidna Wines Wedding Celebration

Sometimes fate works in our favour, like the beautiful adventure it was for Grace & Jared managing to elope in New Zealand amongst imminent lockdowns and bubble closures. Making it home in time to celebrate with their Aussie loved ones in a big wedding celebration at Ekhidna Wines. We started the afternoon with bridal party portraits at a gorgeous little B&B. I loved the cardboard cutout stand-in for Grace’s lovely NZ bridesmaid. (Highly recommend for anyone who’s close loved ones are currently stuck on the wrong end of a border closure).

Adventures on the Road-Side in the Sunshine

Some days the inspiration just hits, and you’d be silly not to take advantage of it. I LOVE finding beauty in unique and unexpected places. From random stops along the road to hidden alley ways, especially at golden hour. When the character of light grows deep and warm.

The Fitzner's Natural Family Portraits at Belair National Park

Winter is slowly trying to make way for Spring, and the day of Erin, Luke, cute-as-a-button Hazel and loyal dog Remi’s portrait session was a perfect example of that. With the recent rain the ground was damp, the sky was soft and water ran freely through little creeks. All while the sun and small flowers gently tried to poke their heads out. It made the atmosphere calm and lovely, and absolutely perfect for cuddles! Remi was adorable, constantly on the lookout for roos to protect the family from. And little Hazel was just so content, only ready to bring the giggles for the most silly of play - or her fluffy little caterpillar. (So cute!!) I also could not resist capturing her funny little face at the end of the session, scroll to the end to check it out. I would also pull a similar face if encouraged to laugh for an hour straight. Haha!

Natural Family Portraits at Linear Park

It was such a delight to meet Sharon, Tom & gorgeous little Jamie with his huge smile. We spent some time at Linear Park walking the trail, checking out the gum trees and chasing tame pigeons whilst pointing out the shyer ducks. Enjoying beautifully natural family portraits. Before heading home for a few photos with their adorable dogs Indi & Gracie. Precious family portraits to share with family overseas and cherish forever. Thanks for having me! x

Ellen & Stella's Gorgeous Gay Registry Office Wedding Adelaide

I gotta say, I do love me a shotgun wedding! Not only is your little one right there with you all day getting to soak up all that love and all those promises. But you get to take beautiful wedding portraits that double for maternity portraits. Win win? Today was one of those rare days where the weather forecast gave a 100% chance of rain. No leeway incase they were wrong, just a one hundred percent chance you will get rained upon today. But it didn’t matter! We made it through before lockdown. These two gorgeous ladies married with their mums as witnesses (so sweet!). And the rain managed to sprinkle only at the most opportune of moments, allowing us to frolick through town. So blessed to be able to share this day with you. A romantic day that was very much longed for.
