Wedding at The Manor Basket Range – Ebonnie & Kade

What a day to remember! Ebonnie and Kade’s wedding at The Manor Basket Range was nothing short of a fairy tale. This Adelaide Hills venue, a charming faux castle, set the stage for an unforgettable experience. The sun shone brightly, casting a warm glow over the stone walls and lush gardens, creating a perfect backdrop for their special day. It was my pleasure as an Adelaide photographer to capture these moments, each one filled with joy and love.

Preparation

The morning bustled with excitement. As I arrived, Kade and his crew were rearranging cars, setting the scene for their grand preparation. The atmosphere was lively, with laughter echoing through the air. The little page boy, a delightful bundle of energy, stole the show. He darted around, basking in the attention of the groomsmen. Kade’s choice of matching Peaky Blinders caps for his friends was a stroke of genius, adding a dash of vintage flair to the day. As a fan of these hats myself, I couldn’t wait to capture this stylish detail in the photos.

Kade and his groomsmen shared jokes and last-minute advice. The camaraderie was palpable, a testament to the strong friendships that surrounded Kade on his big day. Each groomsman adjusted their Peaky Blinders cap, a symbol of unity and a nod to a shared love for classic style. These moments, filled with laughter and anticipation, were a joy to photograph.

Stamford Grand Wedding – Jess & Tim

Set against the picturesque backdrop of Moseley Square in Glenelg, Jess and Tim’s Stamford Grand Wedding was nothing short of magical. The sun-drenched balcony of the Stamford Grand offered a breathtaking view, setting a radiant stage for this lovely couple to exchange vows.

The charm of Glenelg, with its vibrant atmosphere and stunning beachfront, complemented the elegance of Stamford Grand perfectly. As a photographer, capturing the essence of this location, intertwined with Jess and Tim’s story, was an exhilarating experience. Their choice of venue reflected their love for Adelaide’s unique beauty, and as their wedding photographer, I aimed to encapsulate every moment with the same authenticity and love.

The day began with Tim and his groomsmen at the Grand’s Horizons Cocktail Lounge, a space that exuded a classic, antique charm. As Tim readied himself for the day ahead, the atmosphere was filled with anticipation and excitement.

We ventured outside, exploring the quaint streets of Glenelg. The blend of urban and seaside elements made for some stunning photographs. Capturing Tim and his groomsmen against diverse backdrops, from the bustling Moseley Square to the serene Glenelg Jetty, added a dynamic and vibrant touch to their photo session.

Botanic Gardens Palm House Wedding – Kelly & David

As an Adelaide photographer, I’ve had the joy of capturing many beautiful weddings, and Kelly and David’s Palm House wedding at the Adelaide Botanic Gardens was a dream come true. Nestled under a majestic gum tree in the northern part of the gardens, their ceremony space was nothing short of enchanting. The sun graced us with its presence, bathing the entire area in a warm, golden light. Thankfully, Kelly and David had thoughtfully arranged large umbrellas to shield their guests from the sun’s intensity, adding a touch of elegance and comfort to the setting.

David’s anticipation was almost palpable as he waited for Kelly, his eyes occasionally darting towards the white carpet (a color he was initially unsure of, but which turned out to be perfect!). When Kelly made her entrance to their Palm House Wedding, fashionably late, the atmosphere was electric. The ceremony was filled with laughter and heartfelt moments, especially during the humorous retelling of their initial Facebook exchanges. It was a privilege to witness and capture these moments, making sure each photograph reflected the joy and uniqueness of their special day.

Palm House Gardens Wedding – Ayla & Drew

Ayla and Drew’s intimate wedding was nestled in the heart of Adelaide’s enchanting Botanic Gardens, specifically at the Palm House Gardens. Amidst the natural beauty of this iconic Adelaide location, their wedding stood out for its unique gothic flair. The usual large-scale affair was gracefully scaled down due to unforeseen circumstances, yet the joy and love remained magnified.

Ayla and Drew’s choice to celebrate at the Palm House Gardens, a gem in the northern section of the Botanic Gardens, couldn’t have been more perfect. The contrast between the gothic elements of their decor, featuring intriguing skulls and stunning black dresses, against the lush, green backdrop of the gardens, created a visually striking palette. Despite the overcast weather, the couple’s radiant smiles and evident affection for each other brightened every moment, making my job as an Adelaide photographer a delightful experience.

The ceremony was nothing short of magical. Set against the whimsical backdrop of Palm House Gardens, Ayla and Drew exchanged vows that were heartfelt and deeply personal. The intimate setting of the ceremony, surrounded by the natural splendor of the Adelaide Botanic Gardens, added a layer of serenity and romance to their exchange. Each word of their vows resonated with the sincerity and depth of their commitment, making it a truly memorable moment for everyone present.

As they promised each other a lifetime of love and support, the cloudy skies seemed to echo the solemnity and depth of the occasion. The gothic theme, with its elegant dark tones, creating a unique and captivating ambiance. Their ceremony, a beautiful blend of traditional romance and contemporary style, perfectly encapsulated the essence of a modern fairy tale wedding in Adelaide.

Following the ceremony, we embarked on what I like to call a ‘whirlwind photography tour’ around the Botanic Gardens. With only two hours to capture the essence of Ayla and Drew’s wedding day, we strolled through the verdant landscapes, finding picture-perfect spots at every turn. The gardens, with their diverse flora and beautifully landscaped areas, provided a stunning backdrop for our glamour photoshoot.

The challenge of the day was working around the ongoing Illuminate Adelaide festival. The presence of black boxes scattered throughout the gardens required a bit of creative photography and some post-production magic. However, this didn’t deter us from capturing the beauty and romance of the day. The photos turned out spectacular, each one telling a story of love, joy, and the enchanting setting of the Botanic Gardens.

Templewood House Wedding – Michelle & Andrew

The illustrious Templewood House made for a stunning backdrop to Michelle and Andrew’s wedding at the beginning of October! Nestled in the heart of the Adelaide Hills, this turn of the century country lodge was the perfect canvas for Michelle and Andrew’s love story. Imagine a place where every corner whispers tales of bygone eras, and each step takes you closer to natural serenity.

This wedding venue isn’t just a backdrop; it’s a character in this love story. With its manicured gardens and the ability to personalise every moment, it’s as if Templewood House was waiting patiently for Michelle and Andrew’s day to shine​​. This Federation country house, dating back to 1901, stands proud on a 200-acre property with unspoilt views that are a photographer’s dream​​.

Prior to the ceremony

Arriving at Templewood House, you’re greeted by the stately driveway and ancient gums, a prelude to the beauty within​​. As I made my way up to the house, camera in hand, the excitement was palpable. Inside, Michelle was a vision of grace, surrounded by the warmth of heritage walls as she was being prepared. The soft clicks of my camera captured the laughter, the anticipation, and the gentle light spilling through the windows.

Meanwhile, Andrew, with a twinkle in his eye, was the picture of charm on the lawns. Greeting guests with a warmth that matched the sunny Adelaide hills, he was a host through and through. This is the magic hour for a photographer, those candid moments that speak volumes of the day ahead.

Their laughter and camaraderie made each click of the shutter a joy. You see, it’s not just about the photos; it’s the experience, the shared moments among the natural splendour of this equestrian property​​.

With sunlight casting a golden glow over the hills, we seized the moment, capturing love and laughter among the backdrop of Millbrook Reservoir Reserve’s finest vistas. And yes, the horse that joined us? Well, it seemed to approve, adding a touch of whimsical charm to our session.

A homemade cake, the centrepiece of this culinary celebration, was a marvel of sweetness and style.

Dancing under the stars, the chilly Adelaide Hills night was no match for the heat of the dance floor. The joy was infectious, and as their wedding photographer, I swirled around them, capturing every twirl, every smile, and the undeniable magic of the night.
