Bec and Dave’s first-look and wedding at Forest Edge, Gembrook

December 11, 2018 by Jon Tinkler

On the last day of Spring, Bec and Dave tied the knot at Forest Edge in Gembrook. With the stunning view of the mountains behind them, they exchanged rings, vows and kiss with friends, family and kids looking on. As Bec and Dave wanted to get together pre-wedding to capture some shots and portraits with family before the ceremony, so we met up at the Puffing Billy station, not knowing that the train would be there as an extra bonues (I think I was more happy to see it than the kids, if the truth be told).

Then we headed up to beautiful Forest Edge, where I said hi to Celebrant Kate before she got down to marrying these lovebirds 🙂

You might find a few shots in there of ring-bearer Tyler pulling the old “best-man-pats-his-pocket-and-pretends-to-forget-the-rings” routine …. except he wasn’t pulling a stunt, he genuinely didn’t have them! After the search party returned (with success), Bec and Dave were married and it was time for a cold drink, some shade, some portraits on the property, and a fun and happy reception.

Congratulations again Bec and Dave, it was great working with you and I hope you love this sneak peek!

I really, honestly thought Tyler was having a lend of me …

… turned out, he really wasn’t! The rings were located by a search party, safe and sound, and in their box – well done Tyler on providing a unique moment for most people at the wedding! 🙂

In between courses I “borrowed” Bec and Dave for some golden-hour shots. They were super keen to get these, and the light was just so beautiful in the mountains between about 7pm and 8ish.

These later few are taken after the sun has actually gone down, you can see there’s no light on the hills in the background. It’s a great time to get out for a few shots – assuming your reception and timings allow for it to happen. If sunset is in the middle of speeches – well …..
