Sandra & Jaydem were such a wonderful couple and I had such a fun time capturing one of the most important days in their lives. It all started out early with the girls as they made the preparations at a unit in Southport while the boys did what they do best by sitting around, watching footy and having a cold one at the couples’ place in Oxenford. As soon as I walked in I noticed Sabre, their pet Bull Mastiff and I couldn’t leave without getting some playful shots of him.

The ceremony and reception was on South Stradbroke Island hosted by An Island Hideaway. Where owners Bennie & Michelle always host a great wedding event. Photographers Grant and Kathy from Ashford Studio flew up from Sydney to take the snaps and despite the fact this was our first time working together we gelled perfectly. The sunset provided a sensational backdrop for the last few minutes with the bridal party before dark and I was able to film a few amazing moments on the beach.

Filmed mostly with a Canon 5d Mark II with some hand held shots and some on a monopod. Lenses used were:

f4, 24-105 mm
f2.8, 70 - 200mm
f1.8, 50mm (not so much)
