This was a real beach wedding set at Marcoola. The day was glorious, the couple delightful. Everything was just right…

“Thank you so so very much Penny!
They are amazing!!!! Now the problem is which to choose!
Thank you so very much for everything, we both really appreciate it! Thanks again for beautiful shots!”

Tom and Marnie exchanged their vows on Marnie’s beautiful private property. Hay bales, parasols and horses lent a relaxed rural feeling. The delicious food was prepared by a local restaurant, Pomodoras on Coral.

“Just wanted to email and say a huge thank-you for all your effort and enthusiasm on the wedding day.  We are only just back and so I have only had a quick look at the website, but the photos look just gorgeous. And I am so pleased that there are photos of all our guests! Great memories.

I just wanted to let you know that the photos arrived safe and sound.  They are so gorgeously presented and packaged – thank you!  I also wanted to tell you again what a fantastic job you did and how much we appreciated you just going with the flow and fitting in seamlessly.  The end results are just gorgeous!
 
Thanks again for all your help on (and before!) our big day”.

Greg and laura are amongst the first couples to  marry in the Little White Wedding Church, Maleny. It is bound to become one of the leading wedding venues here in Maleny, as well it should.

Tim and Kate chose Michel Chalets, Maleny for their wedding venue. A beautiful, peaceful place to have your wedding. We had some very interesting photo opportunities, many centered around the attire of the Groom and his Groomsman!

“We have just been having a very very big laugh at the photos. I think you have captured us amazingly…given what you had to work with!You have done a great job on the photos, thank you very much for that. It was nice to come back from our first day of work to find them. It really put a smile on our faces. We both want to say we really enjoyed the photoshoot and the effort you put in going along with the madness”.

“Thank you for being our photographer at our wedding.  You were great and we felt so relaxed.  I didn’t even remember seeing you in some of those photos you took of us.  Thank you for uploading the photos so soon.  They are great.  We have received a lot of compliments about the wedding photos! We’re so happy with them”.

A wonderful wedding, even though we had to put up with the dust clouds obscuring the normal fabulous view of the Glasshouse Mountains.

What a wonderful venue! Albertus Chapel,  Maleny is a gem – a photographer’s dream, with its pretty swiss style chapel and winding track with overhanging trees. Chris and Kimberley had a relaxed ceremony and reception at the chapel, before heading off to a photo shoot overlooking the Glasshouse Mountains.  

Lisa was surrounded by a sea of pink - all her bridesmaids dressed in this subtle colour. Stephen and Lisa’s daughteralmost stole the show, with her fairy outfit, including  a wand. Landsborough Church was the venue for their wedding, a stunning setting. Then it was up the Range to capture the sun setting over the Glasshouse Mountains.

Tim and Amanda chose to be married at Tranquil Park, Maleny. They had a wonderful day and everyone obviously enjoyed the day. Our first location for the bridal party photos was at a private home, that has a wonderful winding drive overhung with towering trees. Impressive even though the trees were still in their winter foliage. We went off to a favourite location with views overlooking the Glasshouse Mountains for photographs – and fun with the resident cattle!

Andrew and Jamie’s wedding was great fun and very relaxed – just the best type of wedding. They were not about to take anything too seriously – apart from their vows – and  the piggy back race was just another part of their wonderful day.

I have been fortunate to photograph some wonderful couples recently. The Sunshine Coast Hinterland is a stunning place to choose for a wedding day, with a huge range of venues. Living in Maleny I have a wealth of  knowledge of wedding venues as well as beautiful locations for the bridal party photo shoots.  Brides can get confused in choosing  wedding suppliers, and I am more than happy give recommendations on those suppliers with whom I have full confidence.  I have chosen three very different weddings to showcase this month – from a quiet  discreet wedding in the rainforest, to the award winning Maleny Manor and finally to the excitement of the coast – enjoy.
