It’s true. I don’t always remember what a couple looks like between the time of our first meeting and our second meeting which is often 12 months later, particularly when our first meeting is done over Skype. Such was the case with Olivia and Francis. For many months those names were staring down at me from […]

Earlier this year I had the honour of documenting Carly and Shae’s wedding. Shae was a bridesmaid in another wedding I had photographed and Carly did some videography work in yet another wedding so I kind of knew them a little bit before their big day, but it wasn’t until their wedding that I really got to see […]

Any business book will tell you that to stand out from the crowd you need to be doing something different. Zig when everyone else zags. To that end, when the rest of the world was busy putting together their summary of 2014 at the appropriate time (ie the last few days of the year) I […]

bird in hand wedding

Bird In Hand would have to be one of South Australia’s most beautiful wineries and a perfect place to tie the knot. Clare and Roland liked it so much they travelled down from Brisbane for their wedding! It was an awesome day for a wedding too, the sun was out, everyone was laid back, the […]

Barrister's Block Wedding

When I first met Leonie and Jarrod to talk about their wedding I got a really good vibe. They were super relaxed and when they told me about what they had in mind for their wedding it sounded like the exact type of wedding I love to shoot.

Silvestri Wedding, Adelaide Hills wedding

It’s been a really long time between drinks. And by drinks I mean blog posts. And by really long time I mean 26 whole weddings. As the wedding season slows down over the winter months rest assured I’ve got plenty of weddings on the back burner to breath some life back into the blog so […]
