Beth and Nick’s NYE Celebration

On New Year’s Eve in 2021, Beth and Nick tied the knot and celebrated with around 100 friends at family at the gorgeous Acacia Ridge Wedding venue. With the famous vines and mountains in the distance, the ceremony was held under bright blue skies and a hot Melbourne Summer sun. I’m not afraid to say that by the time the ceremony ended I was looking for the shade – and with black suits on, I know Nick and the groomsmen […]

Mark I have known for a long time – we went to school together (although a few years apart, and too many years ago!). When he contacted me to have a chat about the possibility of me covering his wedding to the lovely […]

Kaitlin and Adam’s sunny Spring wedding at the Eastern Golf Club

Mid-November 2017 saw Kaitlin and Adam tie the knot under sunny skies at the Eastern Golf Club, one of the most stunning Yarra Valley golf courses for a wedding. It was just such a pleasure being able to work with this lovely couple, and I think you can tell from the shots that they had a lot of fun both during the ceremony and in the photo shoot afterwards – at least I hope they did, I know I did […]

Jaida and Paul’s Ballara Receptions Chapel Celebration

Very lovely couple Jaida and Paul got married in October 2018 at one of our favourite spots for Yarra Valley Weddings, beautiful Ballara Receptions. They tied the knot in the Chapel, and Jaida was able to time her arrival absolutely perfectly. As I write this post, there’s heavy rain falling just outside my window – just as it was literally minutes before Jaida arrived at Ballara, and literally minutes after she entered the chapel! With Celebrant Erin Rollason conductin a […]

Kim and Harry’s Alowyn Gardens Wedding

Kim and Harry’s Alowyn Gardens Wedding was our first of 2018, and after lots of Skype chats, emails and a great meeting in person at Alowyn Gardens in late December, it was amazing to have Kim and Harry fly in from their adopted home in Sydney to celebrate with their family and friends. As they were in from out of town, everyone had gathered at local accommodation, and it was there we started with preparations for both Harry and Kim, […]

Our photos afterwards were shot down by the river, as well as with the bridal party in the grounds […]

On Saturday I was lucky enough to be asked to photograph Lydia and Kris celebrating their marriage with a Warburton Golf Club wedding. Having grown up in “the Valley”, there were lots of friends (old and new), and family around to celebrate this wedding of two genuine high-school sweethearts.
