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!

Our Favourite Wedding Photos of 2016 - The Sunshine Coast & Beyond!
2016 has been a HUGE year of wedding photography for us! We've explored some gorgeous cities, venues and properties for the weddings we photographed from Fraser Island & Stradbroke Island to The Sunshine Coast to Brisbane, Toowoomba, The Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Bangalow and beyond.
The love stories we have witnessed between the couples we've worked with have been nothing short of uplifting, moving, gut-wrenching and inspiring.
Mikala and I often say to each other after finishing a wedding that we feel like part of the bride's and groom's families - creepy but true :) We always get swept up in the relationships and emotions of what is one of the absolute most important days of their lives.
We really have met, worked and bonded with some extraordinarily loving souls this year. If we happen to bump into any of you (brides and grooms) post wedding, we're not stalking you just because we miss you and want to hang out with you some more - promise :)
The happiest of new years and a prosperous 2017 to all of you and to the amazing duo's we framed throughout 2016 in our camera lenses. Keep on loving each other just like the day you were married and we'll see some of you when we're the photographers at your friend's weddings soon!
Enjoy the year that was...

Gabbinbar Homestead Estate, Toowoomba Destination Wedding - Cat & Sean
Cat and Sean tied the knot at Gabbinbar Homestead Estate in Toowoomba. This is one of Queensland's top wedding venues and there is no question as to why. Gabbinbar is both historical and prestigious and the absolute perfect venue to host this rad bride and groom's wedding. (The owner and staff at Gabbinbar Homestead make the most helpful and professional wedding team you could hope for).
This warm and fun-loving couple are full of adventure, playfullness and style so Gabbinbar Homestead was a giant and glamorous, theatrical playground for them. Sean is Mr. Smooth Operator and Cat is Mrs. Dance-the-night-away and together they are a bundle of relaxed excitement. They balance each other perfectly.
The delightful bride and groom's family and friends gathered from many corners of the globe to witness and revel in the love they share so generously. One of Cat's 5 brothers unfortunately couldn't make it to the wedding in person but his wife held up her phone so he could watch the entire ceremony on Skype. +100 points for technology!
The rollercoaster of emotions did not stop throughout the entire wedding starting with a tear in Sean's eye when he saw Cat walking down their gorgeous outdoor isle. The laughter really marked their day though. The bride and groom, the bridesmaids, groomsmen, family, friends - everyone smiled and laughed the day away making for the absolute happiest day of Cat & Sean's lives.
Enjoy this natural yet theatrical feast of wedding grandeur at its best.
