We’ve only really had a small handful of bright sunny weddings this year on the Central Coast NSW. And luckily for Katy and Ryan, they picked the perfect day at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW. Although Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW isn’t too far from us, it has surprisingly been a while since we last shot at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW so it was so refreshing to be back. We started the day with boys at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW which is usually the case. The boys were organised and chilled so literally got suited up right away so that we could spend a bit more shoot time with the girls at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW. This Northern Beaches crew were down to earth and just wanted to savour every moment of the day so the girls enjoyed some sparkling in the yard at their Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW AirBnB before getting dressed in their gowns for the celebrations to come. Soon enought, Katy was ready to put on her gown and we got some super cute shots of her ladies reactions once dressed, we just love capturing these candid moments at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW. The time had come to make our way over to the beachside Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW where Ryan, their adorable little son, and their guests awaited. Beach weddings are often really tricky with the wind, however amongst all this year’s rain, the sky was blue, the sun was shining and the wind was minimal – perfect conditions for a Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW wedding! It was not long until Ryan and Katy became husband and wife, guests cheered and greeted the newly weds at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW and after some group photos with family and friends at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW, the bridal party took a bit of time out for their Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW location shoot before partying the rest of the night away. Once we arrived at the reception location at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW, the guests welcomed the bride and groom and could not wait to get this night started at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW. Katy and Ryan, sat amongst the guests which really gave the night an intimate feel and once the formalities were complete, everyone was keen to hit the dance floor for a bit of the Nutbush and Macarena, the two songs that every age group knows the steps to! And after a fun day at Pearl Beach, Central Coast NSW, the short drive home was just icing on the cake for us! What an amazing day and hopefully the sun comes back soon for more of this!
Kantara House Central Coast NSW Wedding Photography – Wedding of Sally and Matais
We had a long haul of overcast and rainy days over the past month or so on the Central Coast NSW but we aren’t complaining. The even light an overcast day brings at Kantara House Central Coast NSW weddings is just as gorgeous as any other day, plus the gardens are looking so lush and green now! We met Sally and Matais last year at Bouddu National Park for their engagement shoot, just a little practice run before the big day. Super breezy shoot for us, so when Sally and Matais’ big day at Kantara House arrived, which is literally down the road for us so big plus, we were so excited to see them tie the knot. The forecast for the week of Sally and Matais wedding was rain, rain, and more rain at Kantara House Central Coast NSW. However, the weather gods heard our calls and although there were little moments of drizzle, for the most part, we enjoyed the gardens to their full capacity! We started off the morning in the gorgeous, country-white bridal suite at Kantara House Central Coast NSW with the girls. The girls were sipping on their sparkling and finishing up their hair and makeup in their gowns and fluffy slippers. Lots of fun and laughter with the girls before the father of the bride arrived for an emotional greeting at Kantara House Central Coast NSW, always such a beautiful moment and I’d be lying if I told you my eyes didn’t swell up a little during post-production! As always, time wasn’t on our side at Kantara House Central Coast NSW and the boys had arrived at Kantara House Central Coast NSW. Looking dapper in their navy suits, we took a few portraits on the boys outside the Charlotte Chapel Kantara House Central Coast NSW before they headed inside to wait for the bride, Sally. The ceremony in the Charlotte Chapel Kantara House Central Coast NSW was a beautiful service surrounded by their closest friends and family and once Sally and Matais exchanged vows, their guests enjoyed some sparkling and ice cream, care of Mr Goaty, at Kantara House Central Coast NSW whilst the bridal party took a stroll around the property of Kantara House Central Coast NSW. So many little hidden garden gems around Kantara House Central Coast NSW, we almost always feel like we could shoot all afternoon however it would be rude of us to keep the newlyweds from their guests eagerly waiting for the party to start at the reception at Kantara House Central Coast NSW. As always the staff at Kantara House Central Coast NSW put on amazing food and beverages (and as suppliers we always get fed well too so major bonus for us!), and once the formalities had been complete, everyone was ready to hit the dance floor at Kantara House Central Coast NSW, young and old didn’t hold back on the dance moves and even got some random pushups on the dance floor too! Good times at Kantara House Central Coast NSW, one that will stick around in the memory bank for quite some time.

Whale Beach Wedding Photographer – Wedding of Stephanie & Tyrone
We love the Northern Beaches of Sydney and it’s not an area we often visit, so when we get the occasional wedding there, it’s always such a novelty going there. Reminds us of the Central Coast but just a little bit more fancy! And what a spot Whale Beach is – such a beautiful part of the world. We started off the day with the boys getting ready. And being Italian, of course Tyrone was surrounded by A LOT of family which of course added to the excitement of the day ahead. After a full family portrait sesson, we made our way over to girls who were having a great time getting ready for the day. Surrounded by her bridesmaids and mother, Stephanie looked stunning and we were ready to make our way over to the church in Avalon Beach. As Stephanie walked down the aisle with her mother, we could see Tyrone holding back the tears and it was just such a special service that was enjoyed by all of their most loved family and friends. After lots of hugs and kisses, we didn’t have a lot of time to stop for family photos and we drove over to Whale Beach to get in a few quick shots of the newly weds. We didn’t have long before we had to make our way back to Moby Dicks where guests were waiting for the party to start. And the party well and truly got underway with the arrivals of our bride and groom. Everyone was ready to hit the dance floor, luckily for us we caught a small break in between formalities and the dancefloor and snuck the couple out for a few quick snaps whilst we had some beautifully balanced light at Moby Dicks Whale Beach. However, it wasn’t long before guests noticed their absence and joined in the photos, which worked out well considering we bolted right after the ceremony before leaving for Whale Beach NSW. The rest of the night was enjoyed by all on the dance floor, enjoying great wine and company at Moby Dicks Whale Beach, and by night’s end, the sparklers created a beautiful send-off for Steph and Tyrone at Moby Dicks Whale Beach. What a perfect day!
Reception Venue: Moby Dicks Whale Beach
Avoca Beach House Wedding – Wedding of Maddie and Ethan
Lovely young couple Maddie and Ethan celebrated their wedding among family and friends recently on the Central Coast NSW at the Avoca Beach House. We started the day with Ethan at his house in Bensville, not far from home which is always handy. Ethan and his family were super relaxed getting ready for their Avoca Beach House Wedding at home and with a few minutes to spare we were able to get a couple of shots along the liquidambar trees in Bensville near the horse stables. We then made our way over to the girls a short ride down the road to Empire Bay where they were happily getting ready for the day ahead. Although Maddie and Ethan didn’t have a bridal party, their group of friends were there enjoying the morning with the newlyweds to be for their special day. Once the girls had finished getting their hair and makeup complete we took a few quick portraits of Maddie looking absolutely stunning in her gown before Maddie and her father made their way over to the ceremony before their Avoca Beach House Wedding. The ceremony took place at the Jehovah’s Witness Kingdom Hall in Bensville with immediate family only, however, the rest of their dearest friends and family did not miss out. Thanks to zoom, the ceremony was enjoyed by all and it was clear that Maddie and Ethan were not phased at all by this and looked as joyful as any bride and groom would be on their wedding day at Avoca Beach House Wedding. Once the ceremony was complete we headed back to the liquidambar lane and the happy couple were greeted (in person) with all their most loved family and friends and after some group photos, we took the newlyweds off to get some photos of their first moments as husband and wife before heading to Avoca Beach House Wedding. After a couple of garden shots (thanks wet Summer for the lush greens this time of year!), we made our way up to Bouddi National Park with some friends and enjoyed the beautiful scenery in between sips of sparkling and banter between great friends. Before too long we released we had to make our way back down to the Avoca Beach House Wedding where the rest of Maddie and Ethans guests were waiting. A few quick shots amongst the rocks is a must at Avoca Beach and then the couple were ready to celebrate the night away at the Avoca Beach House.

Clareville Kiosk Wedding – Wedding of Abby & Jon
Its been a while since we had a shoot outside of the Central Coast and although we definitely are not complaining, it was such a treat venturing outside of the Central Coast to shoot Abby and Jon’s wedding at Clareville Kiosk on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The day began on Sydney’s Northern Beaches when we met up with Abby and some of her girlfriends and family on Sydney’s Northern Beaches before heading over to Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches. Although Abby and Jon didn’t have a bridal party for their Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches Wedding, it was a cruisey morning getting ready with girlfriends and champagne. When we were all ready for our Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches Wedding, the bride made her way over to Clareville Beach, Northern Beaches where Jon and their guests eagerly awaited her arrival at Clareville Beach, Northern Beaches. Accompanied by her father and flower girls, Abby, our elegant bride, met her groom at the waterfront alter at Clareville Beach, Northern Beaches. Once the intimate ceremony was complete at Clareville Beach, Northern Beaches, the newly weds went for a little stroll around this gorgeous part of Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Spoilt with lush Australian bush and waterfront, we definitely were not short of variety. Although it was not a typical Australian Summers day, the overcast day provided beautiful even light with a gentle cool breeze in between short moments of sprinkling clouds at Clareville Beach, Northern Beaches. As the afternoon came to an end, it was time for us to head back to the guests at Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches. Another first for us shooting at Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches, a quant and inviting space at Clareville Beach, Northern Beaches. The casual yet classy venue was the perfect spot for Abby and Jon who sat amongst guests and enjoyed the food and wine thoughtfully prepared by the staff at Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches. Though it was our first time shooting at Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches, we certainly hope that it is not our last! Thank you again for choosing us to shoot this most special day in your lives.
Venue: Clareville Kiosk, Northern Beaches
Bellbird Gardens Terrigal Wedding Photographer – Wedding of Paige and Joe
Another first for us and this time it was shooting at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal. As always we are always super excited to be shooting in new venues like Bellbird Gardens Terrigal but so exciting that Bellbird Gardens Terrigal is so close to home! We started the day off before heading to Bellbird Gardens Terrigal with Joe and the boys at Avoca Beach at the parent’s house. Of course, when we arrived and met this group of blokes, we knew that we would have a breezy shoot (if the rain held out) because these lads were ready to party. A few beers and photos later, we made our way over the to girl at Kincumber at the couple’s house. The girls were enjoying some sparkling, getting ready with their little sausage dog and just taking in the moments as they came before heading off to Bellbird Gardens Terrigal. We managed to get some photos outside before the rain and were crossing fingers and toes tightly that the outdoor ceremony at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal would go ahead. Well the weather Gods were on our side and aside from a bit of mud, the ceremony was enjoyed by friends and family at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal. It was a beautiful ceremony and from beginning to end Paige just had the biggest, most gorgeous smile and you could just feel the happy energy radiating. Joe certainly did well! After the ceremony at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal, we decided to stick around Bellbird Gardens Terrigal instead of venturing far just in case the rain came back and to be perfectly honest we really had no need to leave Bellbird Gardens Terrigal. With so many hidden gems and lush gardens, it really was a photographer’s dream and we actually count ourselves lucky for the overcast day which gave beautiful even light throughout the entire day at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal. When we headed back to the marquee at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal the party had well and truly begun. It was like this lot hadn’t partied in decades and everyone was just up for a good time at Bellbird Gardens Terrigal. Drinks free-flowing all night, there would have been a lot of sore heads the following morning but definitely well worth it! Thanks again for having us Paige and Joe!

Glenworth Valley Wedding Photographer – Wedding of Naomi & Younesse at Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW
Another Glenworth Valley Wedding, we never ever get over these though! November has been a very wet month so far however the rain held out for us for this amazing wedding at Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW. We started the day with the boys down at Ettalong Beach and managed to get in a quick beach stroll with the boys whilst cracking open a few beers before they made their way over to Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW. We then caught up with the girls to see what shenanigans they were getting up to before the wedding was to commence at Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW. As suspected, and rightfully so, the girls were enjoying some sparkling and grazing platters whilst getting ready for the celebrations that lay ahead at Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW. When the time drew near, a nervous Naomi and girl gang, headed over to the lookout at Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW for the ceremony where Younesse and their guests were waiting. It was clear from the get go that these two have a deep appreciation for motor vehicles so it was only fitting that Noami arrive in limo style to Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW. The overcast day, gave for some magic light that made our job a breeze, no harsh speckled light to have to worry about it always a photographers bonus! And after Naomi and Younesse’s family and friends gathered for hugs and photos, it was time for the bridal party to venue off for a little while for the couple’s shoot, of course travelling in style with Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW’s 4WD. The always magical running of the horses was not an event to miss, and the happy couple took the opportunity to take some photos with the horses, definitely one of the highlights of the day! As the saying goes, ‘time flies when you’re having fun’ and with that it was time to head up to the function room at Glenworth Valley Central Coast NSW for Naomi and Younesse’s reception. With amazing food and flowing wine, the newly weds and their guests enjoyed the evening in one another’s company and we are just so thankful to have been apart of it all!

Bells at Killcare Wedding Photographer – Wedding of Charlotte & Declan at Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW
High-school sweethearts, Charlotte and Declan celebrated their Spring wedding at the always beautiful Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW. Not only do we love Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW because its a 10-minute drive from home, or because the food is amazing (and us suppliers get always get fed so well!) but we love Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW because this boutique little venue is simply beautiful all year round and Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW is so close to the most breathtaking views.
We started the day with the boys in a house that Declan literally hand-built himself – impressive! The guys took their time getting ready, enjoying a few beers along the way whilst suiting up for the day ahead. We then made our way over to the girls still getting their hair and makeup done before making their way over to Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW. Charlotte arrived at Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW in a classic car with her pop, before walking down the garden aisle to Delcan with her parents. It was a fairly windy Spring day, that worked in our favor with Charlotte’s long white veil. After the couple said their “I do’s” we spent a bit of time in the gardens at Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW taking some happy snaps of the couple with their family and friends. It was at this point we thought we would venture off the grounds of Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW at head up to Bouddi National Park literally a five-minute drive from Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW. We had the stunning views and bush trails all to ourselves and spent the afternoon in the sunshine before making our way back to Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW to get the party started. After all the formalities and amazing meals, the bride and groom and their guests left no space on the dance floor at Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW to enjoy the rest of the night celebrating Charlotte and Declan
Here is a snapshot of their day at Bells at Killcare Central Coast NSW.
Killcare Beach Engagement Photographer – Sally & Matias
It was an overcast and windy Spring day at Killcare Beach, Central Coast NSW last weekend. Sally and Matius, however, decided to bite the bullet and make their way up from Sydney to Killcare Beach, Central Coast NSW for their long awaited engagement shoot thanks to lockdowns. We started the shoot at Killcare Beach and Putty Beach Central Coast NSW and tried to take refuge from the winds around the rocks. The overcast day at Killcare Beach Central Coast NSW made for some romantic moody shots though, so we definitely ain’t complaining! After our little beach stroll at Killcare Beach Central Coast NSW, we got back into our cars and went for a short five minute drive to another part of Bouddi National Park. One of our fav spots, as you would know if you have been following our work for some time, up near Box Head. With stunning views of Killcare Beach Central Coast NSW, and as far as Palm Beach, Sally and Matias were such good sports with untamed hair, their shots were so cute and you could see the fun and joy in these two at Killcare Beach Central Coast NSW. This very relaxed, down for anything couple, will be celebrating their wedding next year at Kantara House, Central Coast NSW and this is one wedding we are looking very forward to. More pics to come once these two tie the knot!

Toowoon Bay Wedding Photographer – Wedding of Logan & Dayne
Finally, have a wedding to blog – after months of lockdown, micro weddings are now allowed to take place. Although pretty much all of our couples for September, October and November have moved their wedding days to next year, Logan and Dayne decided to just go ahead with a micro wedding at Toowoon Bay Wedding and we are so happy they did! We started this Toowoon Bay Wedding off at Logan’s parent’s property at Wamberal. Open plan living gave for amazing natural light to filter through. Having the girls and the boys both at the same location whilst getting ready made is super easy to breeze back and forth between them. Not long after, the groom and family members went for a short drive to Toowoon Bay to await the bride’s arrival for this Toowoon Bay Wedding. It’s been a while since we had shot a morning wedding (and a wedding in general!) so we got lucky with the overcast day for this Toowoon Bay Wedding and avoided harsh light and strong shadows for softer tones. The ceremony was joined by immediate family only and some of the public were treated to a beautiful ceremony whilst on their morning walks at Toowoon Bay. After Logan and Dayne exchanged wedding vows at Toowoon Bay Wedding, the newlyweds and their families headed back to Wamberal to enjoy some food, drinks, and some much needed family time after months of lockdown. Though a small group, Logan and Dayne didn’t skimp out on some fun wedding traditions like dancing, the flower and garter toss and cutting their cake for this Toowoon Bay Wedding. Thanks for having us Logan and Dayne, such a honour to be a part of your special day.
