met Katrina and Alec at the 2017 Tweed Coast wedding expo. We spent a while chatting about wedding photography and Katrina’s ideas for her day. I could tell immediately that Katrina and Alec were my kind of couple, see, they had been together since high school and were super sweet and in love. After the expo I was pleased to receive an enquiry from them, so we met at my favourite café’ on the mountain, “Spice of Life”. We chatted over coffee about their plans and we connected instantly.

I met with Celia at a cute little organic cafe in varsity lakes we chatted about her plans over ice coffee and smashed avo on toast (my type of meeting). As most brides do she wanted a fun relaxed day with images that reflected the love between herself and soon to be hubby Russell but being a beauty vlogger and working in the skincare industry it was extra important for Celia to make sure her skin looked as flawless in her images as it did in real life.
