JAY & LEAH’S WEDDING

AT PINEY LAKES RESERVE AND ABOARD THE CLASSY LADY

***

It’s July, 2019. I receive an email from Leah. She has contacted me to ask if I’d be available for a wedding with a twist! It’s on both land and sea. Luckily, I do have my sea legs

and I also have my land legs.

So saying yes was easy. And after meeting the two for the first time, I couldn’t have been happier that these guys chose me to capture their day.

During my second meeting with Jay & Leah I was greeted by the entire immediate family, huddled around a scale model of the ceremony venue. Laughter filled the room as I walked in and they realised the madness this wedding planning had driven them too. But! If you need any advice on how to plan a perfect day, don’t laugh, because this day was spectacular.

We were fortunate enough to slip in just before the madness of Covid and celebrate the two young loves seal the deal on land and perform their first dance in front of one too many loose bucks parties on the Swan River.

 

Highlight reel over folks! Time to look through the whole day from the beginning.

MIA & LIAM’S WEDDING

A COSY BACKYARD HIDDEN IN FREMANTLE (P.S. IT’S A SURPRISE)

***

Oh the fun of being the only one in on a surprise wedding.

Chatting to family and friends between photos and laughing on the inside because unbeknownst to them, a very important event is about to take place. Right in the middle of this suburban backyard.

6:20pm. Everyone is oblivious the newly engaged couple have been MIA for the past 15 minutes.

The MC, good friend Mark (who is luckily an authorised marriage celebrant) wrangles the crowd together for a few ‘speeches’.

The rest is history.

 

That was just my favourites list, here we go from start to finish:
