Athol and Michaela's Elopement

In the quiet embrace of Guerilla Bay, Athol and Michaela started the next chapter of their love story on the sands of a private beach. With just four in attendance – the bride, the groom, the celebrant, and myself - it really was an intimate elopement.

Against the backdrop of the ocean, the couple exchanged vows and rings, and sealed their commitment with a unqiue tradition of sand-blending at the ceremony. The grains of sand mingled, symbolising the fusion of two lives becoming one.

Guerilla Bay's untamed beauty provided the perfect setting for a love story that favored simplicity over extravagance. As the waves crashed on the shore and the sun dipped below the horizon, Athol and Michaela's elopement became a testament to the idea that love is about two people choosing each other.

Being both witness and photographer to this intimate celebration was an honour, capturing the essence of a love story that unfolded on the secluded shores of Guerilla Bay. Congratulations Athol and Michaela.
