Nicole and Luc brought their whole family to have portraits at Port Willunga Beach early in the year, just before jetting back across the ocean home. With their 4 gorgeous kids and their parents we took a few nice family photos, and a few photos letting the kids run free! A beautiful Summer day in the sunshine overlooking the ruined jetty, cool blue water, and unique sandy beach caves. Thanks for having me! :)
Read MoreNew Year’s Eve is a time to celebrate the passing of one year and the beginning of another, and what a beautifully symbolic time to celebrate a wedding! The celebration of a relationship transitioning from having not just a partner, but also a husband or a wife. Plus, it’s a big party to boot! Matt and Sam’s wedding was a beautiful celebration right from the start through to the New Years Eve countdown, complete with sparklers and flower petal cannons.
Read MoreWe all remember that record breaking hot day last week, nearly 47 degrees in Adelaide, the hottest day on record since the 30s! Kate and I (the celebrant I work with at Our Wild Love Elopements) decided to keep the record breaking heat going with a road trip to Broken Hill to capture Claudia and Nug’s beautiful wedding day. Prior to this though, we decided to do a a simple little engagement shoot with their beautiful daughter Livy. To keep our energy up for the big day, we decided to keep the session short and indoors.
Read MoreI love warm Summer weddings, where the light stays long into the evening. Gracie and Gerald had a beautiful Summer wedding at Al Ru Farm, a combination of rustic and modern. Taking advantaged of the beautiful gardens and rustic farmland. With their reception out under the stars and festoon lighting. Surrounded by beautiful tunes and lots of love.
Read MoreAfter capturing Erin and Dave’s engagement portraits and wedding, I was thrilled to capture some natural memories for them as a family with 2 new members. Their sausage dog kransky came along when they collected their wedding USB, a little more grown up for this session he accompanied their newest family member baby Isla. Who is so adorably cute that even when she was grumbling and teary she looked sweet as a button. We started their family session in their family home, before heading to a nearby park for the perfect combination of indoor and outdoor portraits. Congrats on your beautiful baby girl guys! x
Read MoreJen and Dan’s wedding was beautifully classic but oh so much fun! With their gorgeous fur friend Roxy the flower dog (who ran down the aisle to Roxanne), the beautiful grounds of Maximillians (with vineyards, golf, and views of rolling Adelaide Hills), and a party that knew what to do when Eagle Rock came on. (Plus who could forget all those delicious shots of tequila!) It wasn’t just the amazing company and beautiful look of the wedding that made this day special. It was the loving company, the family and friends that Jen and Dan surrounded themselves with. Along with their beautiful, down to earth and genuinely kind souls.
Read MoreWith their wedding coming up early this year, we thought it would be a great time to capture some engagement portraits for Jess and Jaiden at the gorgeous Adelaide Himeji Gardens at the end of last year. The Himeji Gardens really is a hidden gem of Adelaide, if you don’t know it’s there you could just walk straight past it. With a gorgeous little rock garden and calming pool. A lovely place for natural portraits.
Read MoreI don’t normally write personal/inspirational posts on this blog. (But maybe that should change?) Taking photographs for a living is an interesting thing to do, especially in the wedding industry which can often be vain and have a focus on the details rather than the meaning. Most of my clients and I are on the same page though. Marriage and weddings are beautiful, because of the true meaning behind the celebration; the love and the promise. When I take photographs, I want to capture the meaning, the emotion, the love, the personality, the natural and the real moments shared between people who love each other.
Read MoreThe Summer skies so far have been breathtakingly beautiful as stormy overcast days meet the warmth of a building summer. Nikki and Mike’s wedding day was blessed with one of these beautiful skies, the rain managing to hold back and ensure a perfect day. A day that was fun, casual, beachy and relaxed. Mixed with classy and timeless styling, trendy portrait locations around Port Adelaide and lovely people. From getting ready, to walking down the aisle, saying their vows, taking portraits and partying the night away. The entire day was both elegant and fun.
Read MoreOne of my favourite parts of this gorgeous job of mine is travelling our beautiful country and state to capture meaningful and natural portraits and stories. Recently I had a lovely drive to Port Julia on the Yorke Peninsula to capture some natural family portraits on Lauran, Kaleb and baby Rafferty’s rustic family farm.
