Melissa and Michael's Elopement at Spicers Peak Lodges in Maryvale, QLD
What better place can you imagine to elope then on top of a mountain? While we weren't THAT far away from Brisbane, the stunning views of the mountains of the Great Dividing Range made it feel like we were on top of the world.
Melissa and Michael eloped in luxury at Spicers Peak Lodge in Maryvale, on top of a mountain surrounded by the mountains of the Great Dividing Range. It was my first time at this luxury lodge, and I was blown away by the setting and the resort. All inclusive, incredible views, what an amazing place to celebrate this couple!

As we dive into the wedding season of 2025, it's clear that couples are embracing unique, personalized celebrations. If you're planning a wedding in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, or the Scenic Rim in 2025, I can help! Here's the trends I'm predicting I'll capture this year:
As a wedding photographer based in South East Queensland, I've had the privilege of capturing weddings in some of the region's most stunning locations, from the lush hinterland to the beautiful beaches and vibrant city venues. One of my favourite things to photograph is the beautiful floral arrangements that couples select to complement their big day. Flowers add so much personality and charm to your wedding day, and when you choose blooms that are in season, they’ll not only look fresh but also help create a harmonious connection with the natural beauty of Queensland. Whether you're planning a beachside ceremony on the Gold Coast, a garden wedding in Brisbane, or a mountain retreat in the Scenic Rim, here’s your guide to choosing the right wedding flowers based on the season, and how to work with a florist to create the perfect arrangements within your budget.
Weddings are, without a doubt, one of the most exciting and joyful days of your life. But even the most organised and calm couples can feel a little bit of pre-wedding anxiety creeping in as the big day approaches. As a wedding photographer based in South East Queensland, I’ve seen firsthand how nerves can sometimes take over, even when everything is running smoothly. The key to enjoying your wedding day and staying calm in the midst of all the excitement is to have a plan for managing stress.
I’m sharing some simple, effective tips to help you handle wedding day nerves, stay grounded, and be fully present as you say "I do"—whether you're tying the knot in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, or the beautiful hinterland of the Scenic Rim.
