Margaret River Elopement

I love the accommodation that Bradley & Kirsten booked for their elopement in Margaret River. It’s just a twenty minute drive to Boranup Forest and ten minutes to town.

Getting ready shots have many benefits, you get comfortable with the camera being around. I photograph lots of pretty detail photos. It’s a nice way to start your wedding story with some natural candid pics of what it was like before you got married.

The garden at this property is absolutely epic for photos. The forest is literally just outside and there are heaps of different spots for really nice photos in the gardens.

Light plays a major part in where I choose to photograph. I am always scanning a property, a landscape or a beachscape for exciting light.

In these portraits I have used the direction of the light to naturally retouch any dark shadows, blemishes or unwanted lines.

Boranup forest is a gorgeous place for your wedding, it has a special feeling and no matter whether it is in the morning or afternoon the light is epic there.

After the ceremony we literally go for a walk, have a chat and laugh a lot. It’s so easy and relaxing that everyone loves their experience in front of the camera. It’s a major skill that I have worked on for many years. I believe when people are relaxed and enjoying themselves, they look awesome in their photos.

I love dramatic coastlines, the rocks and bumps add that sense of adventure to your wedding story. I plan your schedule so that we arrive at the beach in time for the most flattering natural light and beautiful soft colours.
