South Australia decided to deliver a proper wet wedding for Amber and Sam’s big day. It didn’t end up being as much as it could have been, but the non-stop drizzle across basically the entire day provided a beautiful, moody backdrop to the proceedings. Amber (and to a much lesser extent, Sam) were all over […]

Their big wedding party was bursting at the seams with laid back peeps who were quick to laugh, it was like shooting fish in a barrel for me! I was shooting next to Good Day Dwyer on the film […]

Adelaide Hills elopement days are always pretty special, and Kristie and Zurick’s celebration at Templewood House was no different. Nestled in Inglewood SA, this magical venue was the perfect intimate backdrop for their small wedding.
