Jarrod and Dayna's Wedding

We’re obsessed with the colourful and fun vibe of Jarrod and Dayna’s vibrant Jervis Bay wedding! The couple hired the exclusive use of The Cove, a waterfront resort that allowed them to have friends glamp and stay in cabins for a multi-day celebration. Dayna was a no-stress bride who completely trusted her team of vendors to bring her vision to life. The result - a beautiful coastal wedding with pops of bright colour.

The morning started with Jarrod and Dayna getting ready with the bridal party. Dayna surprised her bridesmaids with a first look which made for an unforgettable moment. The couple tied the knot overlooking the beach in an afternoon ceremony. Once married, they set off into the national park surrounding the venue for portraits as the sun began to set. They entered the reception through sparkler tunnel formed by their guests. Throughout the reception, there were heartfelt speeches, delicious food and drinks, a hilarious shoe game and a jam backed dance floor.

We had so much fun capturing this gorgeous celebration and we cannot wait to show you the video!

Lachlan and Emma's Engagement Session

Earlier this week I was chatting to my wedding clients Lachlan and Emma about potentially postponing their engagement session. We had planned for sunset portraits on the beach in Jervis Bay and the rain was getting pretty hard. These two had the best attitude and said let’s do it anyway and I am so glad they did. We met up at Greenfield’s Beach and we had clear skies for long enough to capture some gorgeous moments. Here are a few of my favourite shots from a perfect afternoon! See you at the wedding guys.

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.
