This wedding certainly will never be forgotten, the absolute epitome of relaxed chill wedding couple rolling through the experience with whatever the day presents you.
The amount of on the fly alterations are to long to list but include an impromptu first look, ceremony location change, high heels swapped for Dc Martins, daytime photo shoot and ceremony changed to night time, the rings were left in reception so they skipped that bit and before they joined guests for dinner they had a beautiful private moment by the window over looking the harbour swapping rings and more promised words.

Sometimes unexpected can create moments even more meaningful than planned.

The connection and joy between these 2 (.5) was beautiful to capture between the raindrops.

Congratulations Cata and Jacob.

I really love my album designing time... When we get the favourite images and collate them beautifully, they look so striking.

I have had a handful of wedding days I have been revisiting through the album design process this month and they are all looking stunning.

I can't wait to get these beautiful keepsakes in couples hands.

Email me if you're keen to know how you can get your images into a tangible printed keepsake and I can send various options to consider. I'd love to help you get your favourite frames in print too.

Fiona and Mitch's Winter wedding was celebrated at The Albert Mosman and Gunners Barracks
and captured by both Yas and myself. So much thought and often sentimentality had been put into the smaller details, and surprise gifts that we could just see what beautiful people these two and all their loved ones are.
It was a very very wet day, and The Albert being the stunning venue it is was used for the portraits rather than the headland, and Gunners Barracks created an undercover ceremony location last minute. Laughter, celebration and smooth sailing all round.

Congratulations Mitch and Fiona! I am looking forward to designing your beautiful album.

I was in the church, quickly zipping up my bag and about to dash off to The Rocks with the bridal party for our photo shoot, when Zoe and Pat's beautiful reflection in The Garrison church's antiquated door caught my eye.
Such a beautiful day this one.

This time yesterday- en route to capturing the wedding chapter of the Epic Zoe Pat love story.
What a day. The open mic speeches style meant I heard well over 20 toasts and learnt so much about their beautiful history and lives together. What a privilege this job is, after over 1000 weddings I still feel so lucky to be doing what I do.

When I chat to couples about how much reception they'd like covered I regularly get the comment "we don't need the bit where everyone's a bit wild and loose" and I think, but why not?
