I’ll help to plan your adventure elopement in Margaret River

Originally Aaron & Amalia were planning to elope overseas but they had to change their plans. They were then considering Exmouth but I chatted to them about the insane amount of flies and hot winds at this time of year up there and Margaret River became their preferred location.

Boranup Forest is an incredibly beautiful place with some fantastic clearings for a small or large wedding.

Emu’s walked past during their ceremony

An Emu dropped in to check out what all the fuss was about.

Video of your elopement ceremony in the forest

Amalia’s family couldn’t travel over from Queensland so Aaron & Amalia organised a video camera on a tripod with an external microphone to capture all the atmosphere.

I love looking out for moments of emotion. A wedding is a significant highlight in our life story and I love to give my clients photos that will remind them of how amazing they felt and how special their day was together.

Aaron & Amalia love adventures in the outdoors

Aaron & Amalia love adventures together outdoors in nature, camping in their swag and finding hidden away camping spots to enjoy together.

Beautiful natural portraits

There is some beautiful natural light to find in the forest, the really flattering light that takes away any skin blemishes or wrinkles. It’s how professional photographers photographed people before there was photoshop retouching. I use these traditional skills in camera all the time, it gives a really beautiful natural look.

I love this curvy section of Caves Road running through the forest.

Boranup Forest has an abundance of amazing scenes for photos

Finding locations that have heaps of variety for photos in a close area really improves my clients experience. They want amazing photos but I feel that making the experience easy for them, so we have fun together and it’s relaxing is the so important. It does reflect in their photos.

We love beer!!

Beer is one of many passions in Aaron & Amalia’s life, they love sampling and discovering new craft beers together.

After an adventure in the forest we headed to the beach for a champagne spray and watch the sunset.

Aaron & Amalia texted me after receiving their link to their personal wedding webpage.

“OMG John, the photos are absolutely AMAZING. We’re on our drive home at the moment and Amalia’s sitting in the passengers seat smiling from ear to ear and crying at how beautiful the photos are – thank you so much. Super keen to have a proper look on the computer when we get home later today, thanks again!”
