Vintage Garden Wedding Inspiration

26th June 2014

A perfect day. A perfect location. The perfect team of Sunshine Coast wedding professionals on hand to create something truly beautiful.  Romantic, pretty vintage with a Victorian-style double-ended couch in a toothsome blue-grey, an extension of the perfect clear blue sky.  //// This styled shoot has been lovingly photographed by someone who I would describe as a true artist and perfectionist. I am of course referring to Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, Matt Rowe Photography. And oh boy, did his eye go a-wandering over some spectacular sights at Maleny Botanic Gardens. The gardens themselves are meticulously maintained and delightfully designed, but…

Amanda and Trev were highschool sweethearts, who fell truly, madly, deeply and hopelessly in love over exchange of sweet childish love letters.

Engaged: Jonny & Liisa in Montville

22nd July 2013

After having had family photos taken with their two young children last year by Renee Towers Photography, upon getting engaged Jonny and Liisa thought of but one person to shoot their engagement shoot and wedding. As a family, they enjoy picnics in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, and so this was the obvious choice for setting for their shoot. As young parents, taking some time out for themselves with a photo shoot was a beautiful way to celebrate their love and engagement. They started at the park, then nearby they found some funky rustic sheds and got all funky about things…

Engaged in the Bush

3rd July 2013

Kylie and Darren commissioned their wedding photographer, Sunshine Coast fave, Alan Hughes Photography, to take some pre-wedding photos that reflected their personalities. Being country people through and through, it made perfect sense to have an engagement photo session out in the bush, where they would feel right at home.  This pair were more than happy trekking through long grass, sometimes way above their heads! Darren is in Land Management and Kylie is a Nutritionist, so they are at one with nature – not so much for our Alan, who was quite pleased the country folk were there to forge the…
