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!

OUTRIGGER, FIJI TRASH THE DRESS - SUNSHINE COAST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
Emma and Dylan travelled all the way from the Sunshine Coast to Fiji for their spectacular wedding so we thought why not make the most of it and do a trash the dress session.
The morning after the bride and groom's wedding we headed out to the beautiful crystal clear beach water in front of the Fiji Outrigger Resort and trashed that dress and suit.
It. Was. Awesome.
Enjoy...

Fraser Island, Queensland, Australian Wedding - Linda & Andrew - Sunshine Coast Photographers
Linda and Andrew fell in love with Fraser Island as soon as they set foot on it and knew instantly Kingfisher Bay Resort would be the venue for their wedding.
After becoming friends many years ago they lost touch with each other. Finally years later, they rekindled their friendship which quickly became a love that rapidly blossomed. The connection between this awesome bride and groom is undeniable and absolutely meant to be. They laugh and joke together constantly and make the most of every single moment they have with each other.
Their wedding was not just a celebration of their epic love but also a uniting of their families and gorgeous children. Andrew's family flew all the way from Canada to witness this wonderful duo from Brisbane tie the knot on Sunset Beach at Fraser Island.
We explored the stunning, natural surroundings of Kingfisher Bay Resort for some couple portraits, finishing with drone shots of their beloved red Jag on the pier. We have just 5 words for Linda the gorgeous bride, "Easy, breezy, beautiful, cover girl."
The bride and groom's reception was marked by a heartfelt speech that could not be completed by Andrew as emotion overtook him while trying to thank his son AJ. Their first dance was surrounded by bubbles Linda's daughter was blowing onto the dance floor - so cute! This was followed by some energetic dance moves by all who joined the bride and groom on the dance floor.
Linda & Andrew's wedding really was a perfect reflection of themselves- fun, relaxed, a-laugh-a-minute and family focused.
We wish you all the happiness possible Andrew and Linda!

Little White Wedding Church, Maleny, Sunshine Coast Wedding - Tracey & Aaron (Brisbane)
The Little White Wedding Church in Maleny (Sunshine Coast) hosted the emotional ceremony on Tracey & Aaron's wedding day. One Tree Hill, just down the road in Maleny, then hosted this bride and groom's absolutely fun bridal party portrait session. This bunch knew how to celebrate and were non-stop laughing and joking with each other the entire time we were photographing them.
Tracey and Aaron's reception was held at the Maleny Community Centre which is one of the most spacious reception venue's on the Sunshine Coast. The night kicked on with a very emotional father-daughter dance and more belly laughs from the guests following some awesome speeches about this special pair.
Enjoy the joy...
