Amanda & Tom - Customs House Wedding

Amanda & Tom - Customs House Wedding

Amanda & Tom planned their December wedding all the way from London. They wanted it to be a proper celebration that showed off Australia, and Amanda’s hometown, Brisbane. Planning a wedding from the other side of the world can’t be the easiest of jobs, but I can safely say that these two nailed it!

So how do you go about showcasing a beautiful city like Brisbane? Well, for the ceremony they chose St Mary’s Church in Kangaroo Point, overlooking the winding Brisbane River. For the location photography it was an easy stroll down to the Kangaroo Point Cliffs to capture some beautiful late afternoon sunlight on the city skyline. Then where better to hold the reception than the historic Customs House overlooking the Story Bridge. 

And when would be the best time to hold such a celebration? Why, New Years Eve of course! Basically these two were married in front of their closest friends and family, partied like it was 2016 and made-out under the glow of fireworks at midnight. Perfect. Thanks for choosing me as your Brisbane wedding photographer Amanda & Tom.

Jane & Michael - Brisbane Engagement Shoot

Jane & Michael - Brisbane Engagement Shoot

I love modern architecture. Glass, steel, concrete, straight lines, reflections and symmetry; all things that make the photographer in me go crazy. So when Jane & Michael suggested we get some photos at the Brisbane Supreme Court as part of their engagement session I knew it would be a good one! Law has played a big part in the lives of this couple so it really made sense to use it as a backdrop for their engagement photography. After doing a few laps of court buildings we then headed over to the Roma Street Parklands to mix it up with some lush greenery and flowering trees. Definitely a good combination. Jane & Michael are planning their Brisbane city wedding at Restaurant Two later this year. I just know its going to be really special and I can’t wait to photograph it!

Andrea & Justin - Royal Pines Wedding

Andrea & Justin - Royal Pines Wedding

On a perfect Gold Coast afternoon Andrea & Justin got married. They held an emotional ceremony in the Chapel of RACV Royal Pines on the the Gold Coast. Surrounded by their closest friends and family they cried, laughed and tied the knot. The venue was stunning with lots of water, giant fig trees and gorgeous flowering bushes. It was so nice to witness their wedding and of course be the photographer. Congratulations Andrea & Justin!

After the wedding Andrea & Justing sent me the loveliest testimonial. Thank you guys, it was my pleasure  – “We were lucky to stumble across Gabe who was recommended to us by a friend. We loved his portfolio and his relaxed yet professional approach to what he does. Gabe always made himself available before the day to discuss any ideas or concerns. He was calm (which helped us) and professional, yet fun and casual at the same time. The service he provided was fantastic value for money and the turn around for receiving the photos was equally impressive. Gabe followed our request to capture action shots from the day and night which we couldn’t be happier with. The photos tell a story from the beginning to the end and we still don’t regret not having a videographer. We could not recommend Gabe enough.”
