Montville Lake Terrace Engagement Shoot

12th February 2013

Just engaged and celebrating their love are Dan and Melika. How sweet are these two, and how sweet is the location, Montville Lake Terrace! This place is quite magical, so we can see why Dan and Melika’s incredible Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Matt Rowe Photography, found so much inspiration when shooting here. Impeccable interior design is just the cherry on top of the icing that is the amazing Montville location the Lake Terrace cottage is located in. This place just screams romance and relaxation, which is why it’s a great spot to stay for your wedding night, and make a little…

One Tree Hill, as it is unofficially named, is iconic of Maleny, particularly in relation to wedding photography. Set atop a hilly knoll, with arguably the best view in Maleny, spanning the magestic Glass House Mountains. We have seen many a wedding day photograph of many a lucky couple wed in the Sunshine Coast hinterland region, however we are quite certain we have never seen one like this by Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Velocity Images. We love this unique perspective! If you love it too, you simply must make a point of visiting Ben at the Sunshine Coast Bridal Showcase…

Mixed Cultural Maleny Wedding

2nd December 2012

Tony and Vero met through a mutual friend, and after four and a half blissful years together as absolute best friends, they became engaged to be married. They then made it just one year shy of the five year engagement at just four years. Plenty of time to get the planning absolutely perfect!  Their Maleny wedding was all about family and culture, and the couple made sure they had equal part in the planning process to ensure the wedding was a true representation of them as a couple. One of the things most important to them was to make sure…
