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!

Gympie, Queensland, Australian Private Property Wedding - Megan & Rob
Megan & Rob decided to get married on their private property in Kia Ora (Gympie) and what a spectacular wedding it was! From the moment I laid eyes on the mountain where they were going to hold their ceremony I knew this was going to be one extraordinarily beautiful wedding.
A convoy of 4-wheel drives helped all the friends and family of the bride and groom up the hill to the picturesque ceremony location. We won't mention the trouble the groom had with his vehicle as that would be a little embarassing and one thing from his wedding day he would rather forget - sorry Rob!
Once everyone had gathered at the cinematic ceremony location, they were able to really savour the special moment of the bride and her Dad walking down the long, steep mountain aisle. Seeing the bride and groom standing next to each other and saying their vows on this hill really was out of this world. No matter where you looked there was an epic sweeping landscape - eye candy for the soul.
Many of Megan and Rob's family live on the properties surrounding theirs which gave the wedding a very warm and comforting feeling. There really was no better place for this great couple to marry at.
The bride and groom planted a tree after their stunning wedding ceremony where they can watch it grow, just like their love in the years to come. Then the bridal party and I explored the property for some portraits. There's a raw and beautiful rustic country feeling about these two and their surroundings - simply gorgeous.
The party kicked on at the Kia Ora Memorial Hall where the reception was held. There were some very funny speeches, absolutely beautiful food provided by Penfold's Catering of Noosa and plenty of twirls on the dance floor. Memories were made that will never be forgotton.
Well done Rob and Megan on hosting an outstanding wedding!
We wish you all the very best for your lives together as a married couple.
Enjoy...
