Nicole and Elliot, affectionately known as Nic and El, married each other in an intimate heart-string tugging wedding ceremony overlooking their beloved local, Moffat Beach (Caloundra, Sunshine Coast).
The bride and groom prepped and preened themselves in gorgeous Caloundra beach shacks super close to their impending wedding ceremony. El had loads of his family and friends fly over from the UK to join him while Nic was joined by all of her beloveds from Victoria, Australia. They all became one big family on this highly emotional wedding day.
Nic arrived at the ceremony car park in her super cute little mini van with her bouquet out the window! One second she was laughing and the next crying - the emotions were running high seeing all of her friends and family and of course her one and only, El. Finally this awesome bride and groom were together and ready to say their vows and become husband and wife. The first kiss was gorgeous and topped off this wedding ceremony so perfectly.
Everyone made their way across the Caloundra Gem, Moffat Beach after the wedding. Some guests even opted to carry a pram… across the beach. Complete troopers innit. We took a few candid photos of the wedding guests and the bride and groom as they journeyed across the epic beach location.
Nic and El met everyone at The Pocket Espresso Bar which is one of the Sunshine Coast’s absolute gems. The newly married couple hugged, kissed and high fived their guests for a while until we took them out for a few more special wedding photos at the point. Our trusty drone made an appearance and took some spectacular photographs of the bride and groom. Nic and El jumped up just in time from lying down on the rocks before a wave washed right over where they had been lying. Phewww!
The night kicked on at the reception with some stellar speeches, ridiculously delicious food, brilliant live tunes followed by the entire crowd of friends and family singing and dancing to said brilliant live tunes.
What an epic wedding!!!
We wish you all the love, happiness and laughter in the world Nic and El!
Big love,
Jesse & Mikala X
Best of 2019 Wedding Photos - Sunshine Coast, Australian Destination Photographers
2019 was an action packed year for us and our of wedding photography business. In October we photographed 9 weddings in 3 weeks during October. One of these weddings was in country Victoria and four of them were destination weddings on Fraser Island. The rest of them were on the beautiful Sunshine Coast. It was an absolutely bonkers busy time but we loved all of the awesome brides and grooms we worked and created with. Not only that we had a blast meeting all of the bridal parties, family and friends from each and every one of these weddings. We also travelled to New Zealand earlier in the year for a gorgeous destination wedding in Russell (Bay of Islands). We do love ourselves an international destination wedding!
We managed to finish the year by winning a couple of international wedding photography awards too. The first was a Fearless Award which is beyond an honour considering there were over ten thousand photos entered into the competition. The second and most recent was a third placing in the “From Above” category of (this one’s a mouthful) the International Wedding Photographer of the Year Awards. Both of these award winning images are pictured just below this text.
Oh and just before Christmas our main Instagram account @alltheloveintheworld_photos was hijacked and has been turned into a Turkish jewellery page. We had 39.1k followers, yep nearly 40, 000. So if you hapen to know how to get a completely hijacked Instagram account (they changed the email and password associated with the account) back we would LOVE to hear from you. Even better if you know someone that works for Instagram please hook us up!
It has been a brilliant year though and we’re so thankful to all the loved up newly married couples we have had the privilege of working with - THANK YOU!!! And to all the wedding vendors we have worked with on the Sunshine Coast and beyond, thank you for your friendship and laughs throughout the year - what a great bunch you all are.
We are so looking forward to photographing all of the couples who have already booked us to photograph their weddings and we can’t wait to meet loads more of you newly engaged couples in the upcoming months. We do love talking ceremonies, receptions, drones, sunset times (yep we’re nerdy like that), cakes, flowers and of course photography, with the newly engaged folk from around the world.
Big Love and a super happy new year to you all!

Best Drone Wedding Photos of 2018 - Sunshine Coast Destination Aerial Photographers
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

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!
