Botanic Park Family Shoot
Hitting up Botanic Park for a family photoshoot is like stumbling upon a hidden gem in Adelaide’s bustling city vibe. Right next to the Adelaide Zoo and those gorgeous Botanic Gardens, this spot was the dream scene for capturing Dahlia’s big first birthday! Being an Adelaide photographer, I live for these moments where nature and happy families come together. It’s like the universe conspires to make everything just perfect.
The early morning light played through the trees like something out of a movie, casting this beautiful, soft glow everywhere. Botanic Park’s got this laid-back, yet absolutely stunning vibe with its huge trees and wide-open spaces. It’s the kind of place that just makes you want to run around barefoot, laughing and making memories. And that’s exactly what we did, capturing those candid, melt-your-heart moments that family photos are all about.
Dahlia’s 1st Birthday and Botanic Park Family Shoot
Talk about birthday goals—Dahlia’s first was set to be epic with a capital E. Not only did she get her own personal photoshoot in one of the prettiest spots in Adelaide, but she was also zoo-bound later. That’s how you celebrate turning one in style! Dahlia, with her infectious smile and curious eyes, was living her best life, soaking in all the attention and love.
Her folks brought along this adorable collection of stuffed animals, thinking they’d be the perfect props. But Dahlia? She was all about those ibises wandering around, which was hilarious and so darn cute. It’s those unexpected moments that really make a photoshoot. And the teepee they set up? Absolute genius. It looked so cozy and cute sitting there among the trees, with Dahlia peeking out and the sunlight just pouring in. Talk about picture-perfect.

Whitehill Estate Wedding – Kimberley & Matthew
Nestled in the heart of McLaren Vale, Whitehill Estate proved to be the perfect backdrop for Kimberley and Matthew’s enchanting wedding day. As their chosen wedding photographer and videographer, I was thrilled to capture every moment of this joyous occasion. Arriving early at the venue is part of my routine, ensuring every camera angle is set to perfection.
However, the sight that greeted me was unexpected yet utterly delightful—Matthew and his groomsmen were already there, engaging in a playful photo session with another photographer. For a moment, confusion set in, making me wonder if I had arrived at the correct venue. But of course, I was exactly where I needed to be!
Whitehill Estate Wedding Ceremony
The ceremony itself was nothing short of heartwarming, with Kimberley and Matthew’s two little boys inevitably stealing the spotlight. Their desire to stay close to Kimberley was evident, showcasing the tight-knit bond of this beautiful family. From the outset, as they eagerly ran up to their dad, to gradually gravitating towards their mum, these adorable boys were the centre of attention throughout. Even as Kimberley and Matthew shared their first kiss as a married couple, their sons remained the stars of the show. In a humorous turn of events, Kimberley had to momentarily pause the proceedings to attend to one of their sons’ needs—a testament to the laid-back and joy-filled atmosphere of their wedding day.
The sprawling vineyards and lush landscapes of McLaren Vale provided a stunning backdrop as Kimberley and Matthew exchanged vows. The ambiance was filled with love and laughter, especially with their children’s adorable interruptions, adding a personal and unforgettable touch to the ceremony. It was these genuine moments that truly reflected the essence of their relationship, making it a privilege to document.

Following the ceremony and the charmingly chaotic group shots—where coaxing all the children to look at the camera was a delightful challenge—we ventured around the breathtaking Whitehill Estate for glamour shots. The aim wasn’t to spend hours away from the guests; instead, Kimberley and Matthew were keen to rejoin their loved ones, embodying their desire to cherish every moment with family and friends. Their wedding wasn’t just about the rituals and the photographs; it was about creating memories with those they held dear, underscored by casual games of cricket and laughter under the sun.
However, the allure of the McLaren Vale sunset was too enchanting to pass up. Stealing the couple away for a brief session, we captured some magical sunset photos. The golden hour light complimented the romantic and joyful spirit of the day, providing stunning visuals that highlighted the love and happiness shared between Kimberley and Matthew. These moments were brief yet profoundly beautiful, reflecting the essence of their relationship against the backdrop of one of Adelaide’s most picturesque locations.

Glamour Photos
After the ceremony, we took some time for family photos, capturing the joy and love shared by everyone present. The gardens of Partridge House, with their lush greenery and colorful blooms, provided a stunning backdrop for these cherished memories.
We then proceeded to take some glamour shots of the newlyweds. The contrast of the elegant bridal attire against the natural beauty of the gardens and the old-world charm of the historic house created some truly spectacular images. These moments, filled with laughter and love, were a testament to Bec and Matt’s wonderful chemistry.
We made a little time to stop by Bottega Geleteria on Jetty road, which was where ths lovely couple had one of their first dates – which I thought was rather special!
