Melanie & Rhys Wedding - 13 August 2011

First it was the engagement, now the BIG day!

Leading up to this day, Mel & Rhys were nervous about the wet weather plan and like most couples I'm sure they had her fingers crossed hoping for fine weather...well it certainly payed off and they sure were blessed with a gorgeous day!

First stop was the Sebel Hotel where the boys were staying...
The cold refreshments were flowing...trying to ease the nerves perhaps??
Nerves? What nerves?
We then headed over the bridal suite at the Reef Sofitel Casino where the girls were busily getting ready...
Simply Stunning...
The Ceremony was over at the Cairns Botanical Gardens so this was the next stop...
We then headed off around Cairns and Stratford for some fun with the Bridal Party....
HUGE thanks to you both for choosing me as your wedding photographer! Have an awesome time on your honeymoon to USA & Europe...look forward to seeing you both when you get back.

Melanie & Rhys Engagement Shoot - 26 June 2011

Melanie & Rhys had asked me to photograph their wedding in August this year....and they also chose to catch up for an engagement shoot prior to their big day. Some couples choose to book an engagement shoot for many reasons...Mel & Rhys chose to use an image that we took on the day as part of a gift to their guests at their wedding.

We headed down to Paronella Park, just past Innisfail....I had never been there before but I must say, what a great location for some beautiful photos.
From only having met Mel & Rhys a couple of times, it was obvious to me how in love they both were...and how much fun they have together. So it only seems natural for Rhys to get down on one knee and pop the question.....Will you be my wife?Obviously the answer was YES! All the best for the big day guys, I know it will be just amazing!
