King Valley Wedding // Bianca + Nic

King Valley Wedding // Bianca + Nic

After a postponement in December 2020 due to a rough run with Covid and lockdowns, Bianca and Nic were finally able to say ‘I do’ in April at St Mary’s Catholic Church in Myrtleford. Their ceremony was followed by a reception at the fabulous Chrismont Wines.

They wanted their wedding day to be full of fun with all their closest family and friends. Although they wanted a formal look, they still wanted the atmosphere to be nice and relaxed. This made the wedding brief of natural, outdoors, surrounded by their family and friends, simple.

How gorgeous is the late afternoon autumn light on these two beauties?!

Still riding the high from Amber + Richard’s wed

Still riding the high from Amber + Richard’s wedding in Mansfield! Yeehah 🐎
Bluegrass tunes, big hats, golden light, Amber’s gorgeous wedding gown, colour for days, and a whole lot of love. From their vows under big skies to the tattoo station for guests, the sensational sunset location and the wild, barefoot dancefloor moments, this day had heart and soul in every frame.
They celebrated with their amazing tribe, their darling girl Dixie (truly the smiliest, most doted-on babe ever 🥹), and made the kind of magic that reminds me exactly why I do this work: So you don’t just see your wedding day—you feel it.
Amber + Richard’s day was relaxed, colourful, and full of intention. “Your day, your way” has never felt more fitting.
And personally? This one marked something big for me too—coming up to 11 years of photographing weddings. I got my first tattoo to celebrate: a flaming heart, channelling love, beauty, spiritual energy, and intention. Grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it 🙌
Huge love to these two absolute legends for trusting me with your story.
If you want wedding photos full of detail, connection, and feeling—then we should definitely talk.

The Experience, Not Just the Photos

Wedding photography isn’t just about pretty pictures—it’s about capturing your energy, your people, and your story. 💛

My job? To blend in like a guest, keep things light, and document all the real moments—the big ones, the in-between ones, and the ones you didn’t even realise were happening.

If you’re after stiff, posed photos, I might not be your person. But if you want a photographer who’ll laugh with you, calm your nerves, and capture the actual joy of your day—let’s talk.

Some weddings just hit different—Amber + Richard

Some weddings just hit different—Amber + Richard’s was one of them. Full of heart, soul, colour, and the best kind of chaos. These two did their day their way, no rulebook, no Pinterest board—just love, laughter, and a damn good party.
I’m beyond grateful for couples like them who trust me to do what I do so they not only see their day through photography but feel it. Without them, I don’t have a business. I don’t get to do what I love. And that? That means everything.

The Little Moments Matter The first look? Gorgeo

The Little Moments Matter

The first look? Gorgeous. The big kiss? Epic. But the in-between moments? That’s where the magic lives. ✨

The way he looks at you
Kids being kids in family photos
Your friends shaking up just married cocktails
Post ceremony cork popping with your crew
Your best friend there with you as you get ready

These are the moments you’ll want to remember forever. And that’s exactly why I capture them.

A whole decade of love, laughter, and a life built together – and what a bloody magic pair these two are!

“We’re so awkward in front of the camera!” — Every couple ever (before they realise I’ve got them covered 😉).

Here’s the secret: You don’t need to pose to get amazing wedding photos. You just need to be you.

I’ll guide you through small prompts that feel natural, keep things lighthearted, and make sure you actually enjoy the process (yes, even if you hate having your photo taken!).

By the end of the day, you’ll forget the camera’s even there—promise.

How this detail tied the entire wedding together…

The weddings that feel the best and are the most memorable are the ones where the couple have put in a lot of thought about not only what they want but also, how their guests will experience their day.

K+J absolutely nailed this xxx From the florals to the invitation suite, to the ceremony and tables in the hall of the winery every detail at K&J's wedding complemented the other—but it was THIS (swipe to see) that made their wedding shine.

Attention to detail = magic.
Attention to detail around their guests experience = double magic
SURPRISE BRIDE & GROOM KARAOKE PERFORMANCE AFTER THEIR FIRST DANCE TO OPEN THE D-FLOOR = EPIC

What’s one unique touch you’re planning for your day?

Rain on your wedding day? We always have a Plan B.

Rain on your wedding day? We always have a Plan B.

The rain came down as J&B exchanged their vows in Victoria's High Country, and it created a magical backdrop for this relaxed couple and some of the dreamiest photos I’ve ever been lucky enough to take. Dederang in the Kiewa Valley near Albury/Wodonga is some of the prettiest country you can imagine - those hills roll gently down the valley towards Mt Bogong.

The weather might not go as planned (and you can't do a thing about the weather!), but trust me, we will have a seamless Plan B in place, your day will still be amazing—and your photography will be stunningly unique. So, the rain came down and there wasn't a thing we could do about it so beautiful bride (and gal!) J. just kicked off her shoes and B. grabbed an umbrella, the guests stayed under the verandah of the family home and this magical day rolled on.

Personal share post 😎 When I say do your day your way - I am fair dinkum about it! This is our wedding story - 19 years ago, chapel of love aka Albury Courthouse and then dinner with our fave peeps afterwards. It was about 4 weeks from our son Charlie arriving and I was stepping into being a step parent to the cute lil’ pink flower girl. This is how we did it. It was what worked for us. It was our day and it was perfect.

Why Do Weddings Feel Expensive? Let’s Break It D

Why Do Weddings Feel Expensive? Let’s Break It Down!

Planning a wedding isn’t just about throwing a party (OK well it is the party of a lifetime!!!) —it’s about crafting an unforgettable experience for you and your guests. Here’s where your budget typically goes:

Food & Drinks: Think of it as hosting a fancy dinner party for everyone you love.
Florals: Bouquets, centrepieces, and decor to create that picture-perfect vibe.
Venue & Styling: The backdrop of your big day, tailored to your vision.
Outfits & Styling: Making sure everyone looks and feels amazing.
…and the list goes on.....see, it adds up.....!!!!!

Behind every detail is a team of vendors working hard to bring your dream day to life, not just charging for the sake of it. I read a lot of posts on socials from couples planning a wedding and talking about an 'arm and a leg' and 'wedding tax' and to that I say - if you are planning a big event like a wedding it is time to get real. Wedding costs reflect the expertise, labour, and creativity that make the magic happen on the list of must haves.

If you don't have a big budget (aaaaaand you don't have to have a big budget for a fabulous celebration!!!) - you have to cut somewhere and a good place to begin could be the guest list. Just sayin' the less people at your 'dinner party'...the more dollary doos you can have to play with in other areas.... And, even if you do have a generous wedding budget - you still have to be wise about how you spend it! Budget is different for everyone and it is relative.

So, let's get real;

Vision be real with each other about what you want.
Be real with your budget.
Vendors be real about what you want and then find the best fit.

You see where I am going with this....???? Weddings can be an expensive exercise. Budget can be a touchy area. It is all relative. What do you think? Have I missed anything?

**POV: Your wedding photographer is your biggest hype queen.**

Here's a little selfie I took, during a recent wedding day at All Saints Estate, in the midst of bringing effortless, editorial-style wedding shots to life! I’ll take your photos and also I will fluff your dress, fix your veil, help pin on buttonholes, keep the groomsmen on track, look for the moments, find the light, talk to your guests, keep the positive energy coming and the timeline rolling—all while making sure you feel calm, cool, and totally camera-ready.

Fun fact: I often work solo and, in the midst of the hustle, totally forget to take behind-the-scenes photos. But trust me—my focus is always 100% on you and capturing every beautiful moment of your day.
