Our drone has received quite a workout this year at the weddings we’ve photographed across the Sunshine Coast - Noosa, Maleny, Montville, Mapleton, Caloundra, Nambour, Yandina, Valdora, Obi Obi, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba, Kawana, Point Cartwright, Point Arkwright, Coolum, Beerwah and more. But our trusty drone also travelled to Villa Botanica (Airlie Beach, The Whitsundays), Ireland, Portugal, London, Hong Kong and Melbourne.
We want to thank all the brides and grooms, bridesmaids, groomsmen, friends, family and randoms who trusted us as photographers and also who laid down on sand, grass, wood, rocks, pebbles, bridges, piers, boats, roads and dance floors to get THAT shot. We certainly have a lot of fun during the drone wedding and engagement photo sessions but also ironically our brides and grooms often comment that it was the most relaxing part of their wedding day.
Needless to say our trusty sidekick drone is taking some well earned R&R over the Christmas and New Year break.
Please enjoy some of our favourite drone moments captured at some stunning venues and locations around the world featuring some gorgeous newlyweds.
Merry Christmas and a super Happy New Year to you!
Big love,
Jesse & Mikala X

Thank you to all the awesome, now married couples we’ve worked with in 2018 and also a big thank you to the wedding ceremony and reception staff, owners, helpers and guests who have made our year rich in laughter, love and everything in between.

Flaxton Gardens - Sunshine Coast, Australian Wedding - Diana & Jason
Diana & Jason's wedding day was held at one of the Sunshine Coast's absolute best venues, Flaxton Gardens. The bride and groom both got ready on different floors of stunning Flaxton Manor - A luxurious way to start their day!
There was some lingering rain so the bride and groom along with the Flaxton Gardens Staff decide to hold their ceremony indoors. You really can't go wrong at Flaxton Gardens if you have your wedding ceremony inside or outside as they are both gorgeous options. The ceremony was so beautiful with watery eyes in their crowd of family and friends as well as tears filling the bride's eyes.
Diana and Jason were such a pleasure to photograph after the ceremony and family photos. This happy couple are so relaxed, good-humoured and always have an air of go-with-the-flow about them. They're a perfect match for eachother and this shone though during the entire wedding day and while we photographed their bridal party and couple portraits around the grounds of Flaxton Gardens.
We later migrated to the reception hall's epic ceilings filled with gourmet food and loads of laughter during the speeches. There were also a few moments to photograph a few extra special moments between the married couple amongst the rows of lights and a moody, magical fog.
This was one very enchanted day and we wish Diana and Jason all the love and happiness in the world!
Enjoy...

AnnaBella Chapel, One Tree Hill Maleny & Flaxton Gardens Wedding - Claire & Josh
This bride and groom held their wedding at gorgeous AnnaBella Chapel then portraits were taken at One Tree Hill in Maleny followed by an epic reception at Flaxton Gardens.
What a DAY!
Claire and Josh wanted the perfect wedding day and that is exactly what they got. Their wedding took place in one of the most beautiful chapels in Queensland. They were surrounded by the most loving family and friends. There were fluffy clouds in the sky all day making for the best photographic conditions. Sunset at One Tree Hill was breathtaking. And this wonderful couple rounded out their day at the one and only Flaxton Gardens.
The details that Claire and Josh planned for their big day were also absolutely stunning - the cars and motorbike, flowers, bridal party gifts, lanterns, signs, the list goes on. Everything was just... perfect.
What an extraordinary way to commemorate their married life together. Just spectacular.
Enjoy this visual feast...
