With an email that opened with “Hello there, we are planning a relaxed and intimate wedding in the Carlton gardens”, I knew this was my kind of wedding. A relaxed approach and the couple’s nearest and dearest (rather than 400 of their parent’s friends..!) are the key things I hope for in a day when…
Dee & Tim chose Melbourne for their elopement destination, leaving their kids, friends and family at home, with the promise of a party to follow at a later date. Their timing was perfect too, as Melbourne was just opening up again after Covid lockdown so Southbank and the Yarra riverside had a real buzz about…
In January, while Australia’s regional areas burned, Melbourne mostly carried on as usual; with the only clue to what was happening a few hundred kilometres away being the bushfire smoke which lingered on and off for a few weeks.

Combined with the fact that Lauren & Josh’s wedding was planned just a month in advance seemed to make their’s even more relaxed still! With an early afternoon ceremony at the Melbourne registry I wandered some…
As a rule, I’m not the best at multitasking so it was with slight trepidation that I agreed to be the photographer AND witness at Cathy & Mark’s recent elopement wedding at the Melbourne registry.
