Elopement Wedding Photography in Yallingup

Yallingup is a fantastic location for elopement photography. 

Elopement ceremony at Caves House and Yallingup Beach after for photos I was feeling like the luckiest elopement photographer down south.

First up I photographed Marc & Kate’s getting ready shots at The Regency Beach Club In Dunsborough. 

Located conveniently close to numerous venues and ceremony locations I photograph a lot of weddings and elopements here.

Elopement Photography is still about building a story of your day. My photographs will remind you of the moments that happen and also the details of your dress, flowers etc.

detail photos are important memory triggers for my clients.jpg

The beautiful flowers here were created by the wonderfull talented crew at Zest Flowers in Dunsborough.

It’s so valuable to have photos that will remind you of the thought and care that went into planning your elopement.

Photographing the getting ready stage is partly about building trust and a relationship with your subjects. 

Once people are relaxed and at ease they enjoy their experience and they look great in their photos.

Marc is a mechanic and a farmer. This was the first time he has ever worn formal pants, dress shoes and shirt like this before.

You can imagine that Marc hasn’t been in front of the camera very often either. I have a great knack of relaxing people who are not overly keen on having their photo taken.

Caves House in Yallingup is a perfect location for elopements weddings. The lower gardens are super private and sheltered from the sun, wind or whatever the weather gods decide.

The amazing celebrant Caz Copeman will not only be your celebrant but she will also organise your entire elopement experience.

The cool thing about photographing an elopement at Caves House is you have your first photo location right there in the beautiful tiered gardens.

Caves House in Yallingup has an abundance of fantastic scenes like this that offers you variety in your elopement photographs. I have a keen eye for great landscape scenes and being a great wedding photographer is about seeing.
