2018 has been a MASSIVE year of wedding photography for Mikala and I. We have photographed loads of beautiful weddings around our hood on the Sunshine Coast, from Noosa to Maleny, Montville to Caloundra, Obi Obi to Coolum, Maroochydore to Beerwah, Mooloolaba to Sunshine Beach. We’ve also travelled to Melbourne, Ireland, Portugal, Hong Kong, London, Fraser Island, The Whitsundays (Airlie Beach) photographing destination weddings along the way while exploring the extraordinary globe we live on.
We feel so privileged to have worked with so many gorgeous couples at some absolutely stunning wedding venues including Gabbinbar Homestead (Toowoomba), Villa Botanica (Airlie Beach), Kingfisher Bay Resort (Fraser Island), Noosa Riverdeck (Sunshine Coast), House of Laurels (Maleny), Montville Chapel & Poet’s Gallery and the list goes on and on.
We have an enormous amount of gratitude for the couples who have chosen us to photograph their wedding day and capture those one off moments, never to be repeated, so they can enjoy them for the rest of their lives.
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.
Big Love and we look forward to another wonderful year of wedding photography in 2019!
All the love and happiness in the world to you!

Fraser Island Destination Wedding - Sunshine Coast Photographers - Cherie & Marty
Cherie and Marty chose the one and only Kingfisher Bay Resort (Fraser Island) as the destination for their wedding. This was such a great choice on their part and an absolute pleasure to photograph.
This bride and groom hail from Sydney so they travelled a long way, as did their guests (and us from the Sunshine Coast!) to marry each other on Australia’s and the world’s largest sand island.
In all honesty, Kingfisher Bay Resort on Fraser Island is the venue we have photographed more wedding ceremonies at than any other venue in Australia and we absolutely love it!
This was one very special wedding with loads of tears including one from the groom which we have photographic evidence of (a little hint: it was when his bride was walking down the isle)! We can understand why as Cherie looked absolutely STUNNING!
The ceremony was super lovely and concluded with a sand ceremony. Then we (the bridal party and us photographer folk along with the boys from Trending Media Australia) all explored sunset beach and the surrounding areas taking some gorgeous photos along the way.
This awesome bride and groom chose the “dingo den” to host their reception. This
is a fantastic outdoor venue that is both private, spacious and features a fire pit for toasting those marshmallows. Cherie and Marty supplied all the necessary ingredients for S’mores which caused some very big grins from their guests - great idea! Oh and have a look at the knife they used to cut their cake, or should we say machete? FYI no one was harmed during the cutting of the cake.
The bride and groom’s first dance was quite possibly one of the best ever… in the world. Seriously. This dance was phenomenal and it was a privilege to watch let along photograph. EPIC beyond words.
We wish you all the love and happiness in the world Cherie and Marty!
Enjoy!

BEST OF WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY 2017 - SUNSHINE COAST PHOTOGRAPHERS - AUSTRALIA & WORLDWIDE
What an amazing year of weddings it has been for us here on The Sunshine Coast and worldwide! We've photographed weddings of brides and grooms not just from The Sunshine Coast but also New Zealand, Asia, The UK, Europe, North America and Australia wide.
We had the privilege to photograph a wedding at the Fiji Outrigger this year as well as some of our favourite venues including Yandina Station, The Rocks Yandina, Casuarina Gardens in Noosa, Noosa Riverdeck, Yabbaloumba Retreat in Kenilworth, Maroochy Twin Waters Resort, Evans Farm Maleny, Caloundra Sebel, AnnaBella Chapel in Ilkley, Ocean View Estates just outside of Brisbane, Spicers Peak Lodge in the Gold Coast Hinterland, numerous weddings at Kingfisher Bay Resort on Fraser Island and many more gorgeous venues.
We also won 2 Fearless Awards in 2017 which we are over the moon about!
Being wedding photographers means the world to us and we believe it to be an absolute honour when chosen to document a couple's wedding in our own unique way.
Our trusty drone has played a very important part in how we capture weddings and will only continue to grow as being an integral part of our photography in 2018. The great thing about our drone service is that it's free with every wedding package we offer - YAY!
We want to say a massive thank you to all of the wonderful couples we have created with this year - it's been a complete honour to be your wedding photographers.
We're already looking forward to photographing weddings on the Sunshine Coast, throughout Queensland, The Whitsundays, Melbourne, Ireland and beyond in 2018.
We wish you all the love and happiness possible for next year and many years to come!
Please enjoy our 2017 Best of Gallery and we look forward to seeing you in 2018!

Fraser Island, Queensland Wedding - Tennille & Trent - Sunshine Coast Destination Photographers
Fraser Island put on a beautiful morning for Trent and Tennille's wedding day - until it poured with rain. Then it stopped. Then it rained a little more. Thankfully the rain then stopped for the bride and groom's stunning wedding ceremony on Sunset Beach.
The ceremony arbour was so beautiful with a touch of extravagence and framed their wedding perfectly.
After the ceremony, the congratulations were cut short when we were told more rain was going to arrive in 30 minutes. So we whisked the bridal party away for some photos and managed to capture some couple portraits then ran for cover when the rain fell once again.
We then were treated to a rain-free period at sunset for more bridal party and couple portraits on the Kingfisher Bay Resort Pier and again on Sunset Beach. Thank you Fraser Island for keeping those rain clouds away for this time.
The celebrations kicked on with an epicly stunning and sparkly reception. Tennille was in her absolute element amongst all the shimmer, shine and sparkle which represented her so perfectly.
The bride and groom were surrounded by an amazing bunch of their family and friends. One of the highlights was definitely Trent's grandpa who got the entire room laughing during his speech. And also THAT dress Tennille wore was so spectacular during their first dance.
We wish you all the happiness in the world Tennille and trent!
Enjoy...
