Congratulations to Jennine, Andrew and beautiful baby girl Sassy on your wedding in Byron Bay this weekend. Thank-you for allowing me to play a part in the big day by photographing it for you.
Despite the best efforts of the airline who delayed my plane for over 4 hours, I managed to arrive on the Gold Coast Thursday night and headed down to the beautiful Mantra at Salt Village which i made my base for the trip. I will definitely be returning there sometime with the whole family, such a stunning resort and the beach it looks over is unbelievably beautiful.
Friday morning I met up with Andrea, Matt and Hunter for a photo shoot followed by a delicious lunch.


Friday afternoon i drove down to Byron Bay where we headed off for a pre wedding shoot at the beach. Byron Bay is a goregous place, just so beautiful. And what a pleasure it was to photograph Jennine, Andrew and Sassy who are all so natural in front of the camera, and loads of fun. We managed to catch a beautiful sunset though the almost gale force winds nearly blew us off the beach!


Saturday morning I arrived at the Byron at Byron resort bright and early. This is another place on my list to travel to with the family! It is spectacular! Jennine and Saskia also looked spectacular as they got ready for the big day. Unfortunately due to the extremely windy conditions the ceremony had to be moved from the beach to the garden.
The whole day was lovely, from the ceremony, to the music and the catering, all superb. Thanks again for allowing me to photograph it for you!
Here are just a few photos from the day. There are many, many more to come.




Enjoy your trip guys, I will look forward to sharing the rest of the images with you when you get back.
If you are getting married and would like to discuss dates and photography packages with me, please feel free to email or phone for more information. I am available to travel interstate or overseas for your special day. Contact me for further details.
