We are Jesse and Mikala - Sunshine Coast based destination wedding photographers. We offer professional and highly creative wedding photography with a relaxed, natural, artistic and elegant photojournalistic style. The Sunshine Coast (Noosa Heads, Noosa Main Beach, Coolum, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba, Caloundra, Maleny, Montville, Flaxton, Yandina and The Sunshine Coast Hinterland), Brisbane, Gold Coast, Byron Bay and Fraser Island are where we generally photograph wedding ceremonies and receptions. But we love to travel throughout Queensland and Australia and welcome destination weddings around the world. We have recently photographed weddings in Fiji, Ireland, New Zealand and throughout the Sunshine Coast, Queensland and Australia. We're seasoned photographers and travellers. In fact we've travelled to and photographed over 50 countries around our beautiful globe. We also photograph elopements and small intimate weddings. Family, baby, newborn, birth and pet are areas of photography we absolutely love to shoot too!
There are so many beautiful wedding ceremony and reception venues to choose from across the Sunshine Coast, Queensland region. From Noosa to Caloundra to Mooloolaba to Maleny - We're spoilt for choice on the Sunshine Coast. You can enjoy a beach or hinterland wedding; rainforest or waterfall; mountain or stream. Some of our favourite venues are the majestic Maleny Manor, Uluramaya Retreat Cabins (with an amazing view of the Glasshouse Mountains), Spicers Clovelly Estate, Flaxton Gardens, Weddings at Tiffanys, Maleny Retreat, Noosa Blue Resort, Pelican Waters Golf Resort and Spa, Sails Restaurant Noosa, Twin Waters, The Buderim Tavern, Sea Life Mooloolaba, The Surf Club Mooloolaba, The Lakehouse Sunshine Coast, The Birdcage, The Prideaux Estate (a beautiful Sunshine Coast wedding chapel in Ilkley).
Our focus is always on capturing those special wedding moments - The secret smile between the bride and groom or the tears shed by a parent as the bride is walking down the isle.
When you choose two of us to photograph your wedding day, we photograph double the amount of these priceless moments for you. For most of your wedding day we will be in the background photographing and sometimes you may not even notice we are there. We do however give you some direction for family photos and couple portraits after your wedding ceremony. We like to let your day and story unfold naturally, without interference from your wedding photographers.
We also now offer one photographer wedding packages if you are inviting a relatively small number of family and friends to your wedding or if you would like to keep your photography budget down.
In the past few years our elopement packages have become very popular. Itβs a beautiful way to marry your favourite person in the world in a very private and intimate way. If you plan to elope, get in touch with us so we can discuss all the amazing possibilities of venues and vendors that you can find on the Sunshine Coast.
Our drone generally makes an appearance at each wedding that we photograph. Our drone service is free of charge with every full coverage wedding package that we offer. Photographs taken with a drone capture a wonderfully unique and creative aspect from your wedding day, particularly for couple and bridal party portraits. All the wedding guests LOVE it when our drone makes an appearance in the sky! Wedding drone photos take wedding photography to an entirely new level, in more ways than one.
