Justin and Emily's Jervis Bay Wedding

A shared love for the beautiful beaches on the south coast led Justin and Emily to have a Greenfield’s Beach wedding. Since they live in the area, it made sense to have their celebration in Jervis Bay. It rained during their ceremony, which forced the couple to move into the protected area, which was a really romantic space surrounded by the National Park. Once married, the rain cleared and we set off for portraits on the sand with the bridal party. It was a wonderful day to capture!
