Southern Adelaide was showing off with perfect weather—sunny skies and just a hint of a breeze, ideal for capturing Mellora and Dan’s magnificent wedding day. Held at the iconic St Francis Winery, the setting couldn’t have been more picturesque for this joyful occasion.

The ceremony itself was a blend of elegance and quirky moments. Set against the backdrop of the winery’s old stone buildings, the scene was picturesque.

Sunnybrae’s The Landing Wedding – Serena & Seamus

Capturing Serena and Seamus’s wedding at the picturesque Sunnybrae Estate was a privilege that comes with the joy of being an Adelaide Wedding Photographer. Set against the charming backdrop of The Landing, their day unfolded under the brilliant March sun, a perfect setting for such a splendid occasion. From the light filtering through the leaves to the smiles of the guests, every detail at Sunnybrae was a photographer’s dream.

Serena, in her stunning gown, and Seamus, dapper in his suit, radiated happiness. The warmth of the day was matched only by the warmth in their eyes. As an observer and documenter, I marveled at the seamless blend of elegance and emotion that The Landing Wedding offered—a dream venue for any couple, but especially magical for these two lovebirds.

Preparation

The day began in a bustling household, buzzing with the excitement of Serena and her bridal party getting ready. The air was filled with laughter and chatter, punctuated by the occasional bark from their adorable little dog, who seemed to believe he was the star of the show. As I clicked away, capturing candid moments, it was clear that the bond between Serena and her bridesmaids was something truly special. Their interactions were filled with genuine affection and a touch of playful mischief.

Meanwhile, Seamus and his groomsmen were not far behind in spirits. I managed to snap some striking photos of them looking sharp and relaxed, their camaraderie palpable in the air. The anticipation was building, everyone eagerly waiting to head to the stunning Sunnybrae Estate, where the couple would exchange their vows.

Sunnybrae’s The Landing Wedding Ceremony

Serena and Seamus’ the Landing wedding ceremony was nothing short of breathtaking. Serena and Seamus stood under a beautifully crafted wooden arbour, which framed them perfectly as they began their new life together. The expansive grassy area was filled with guests who, despite the heat and sun, were fixated on the couple. Umbrellas dotted the scene, providing some respite from the sun, creating a colorful canopy over the assembled friends and family.

The emotional weight of the ceremony was palpable as Serena and Seamus exchanged vows that were heartfelt and stirring. The signing of the marriage certificate under the clear blue sky was a symbol of their unbreakable bond. Post-vows, the couple and their guests retreated to a shaded area, where I captured family photos—a beautiful testament to the families joining as one.

Glamour photos around The Landing

After the ceremony, we took advantage of The Landing’s stunning vistas for some glamour shots. The natural light was perfect, enhancing the romantic atmosphere of the day. The couple’s easygoing nature made the photo session a breeze, with laughter serving as the soundtrack. Even a playful smoke bomb photo with the bridal party added a whimsical touch to the collection, leaving everyone in high spirits.

The backdrop of The Landing with its rustic charm and serene landscapes provided endless opportunities for gorgeous photos. The light, the setting, and the couple were in perfect harmony, creating moments that they, and their families, will cherish forever.

Crozier Street Glamour Photos

Our next stop was Crozier Street, a locale with a completely different vibe. Known for its old industrial charm, it offered a striking contrast to the sunny landscapes of Sunnybrae. Seamus and Serena, desiring a slightly darker aesthetic for some of their wedding photos, found Crozier Street to be the perfect setting. The gritty textures and moody backdrops lent an edgy romance to the photos, capturing the couple’s unique style and the depth of their bond.

Navigating through the historic architecture, every turn and corner presented a new opportunity for a stunning shot. This part of Port Adelaide, with its rich history and distinctive character, added a layer of intrigue and sophistication to their wedding album.

The celebration continued at Harry’s Bar, where the balcony offered the perfect spot for a lunchtime reception. The casual setting was a reflection of Rachele and Jacob’s easygoing nature, preferring laughter and good company over formality. The afternoon was spent indulging in delicious food, clinking glasses to the future, and sharing stories. The balcony, with its view of Adelaide, felt like a private sanctuary where memories were being woven into the fabric of the city.

As the wedding photographer privileged to capture these moments, I was reminded of the beauty that comes from simplicity. The joy of Rachele and Jacob’s wedding day, set against the backdrop of Adelaide’s diverse landscapes, from the Botanic Gardens to the architectural wonders along North Terrace, and culminating in the relaxed atmosphere of Harry’s Bar, was a celebration of love in its most genuine form.
