Weddings on private properties are always awesome. Weddings on private properties on tops of hills in Gippsland are even more awesome than that! Not only did Hayley and Andrew have the stunning backdrop you can see in the photos below (and that seem to be everywhere you look in Gippsland) but since the wedding was…
When I scout out a wedding venue for photography locations to use with the couple during their portrait session, I always keep the weather in mind. I usually have a plan for good weather and then formulate a Plan B with undercover options or umbrellas should there be any rain or high winds. I was…
Flinders Yacht Club on the Mornington Peninsula was the beautiful location that Kirsten & Shane and chose for their marriage ceremony and reception. Kirsten readied herself along with her best friend and children at a nearby cottage in Flinders village before arriving at the venue in a sky blue VW Kombi from Peninsula Kombi Bus…
The last wedding I photographed this year was on a private property in a beautiful hilltop location in Gippsland with views out to the ocean.

As regular visitors would know, I’m not afraid of a smelly cheese! When I lived in London my French neighbours owned (the now legendary) Tupperware container (the size of which could house a small child) that was always brought out after dinner. The pungent waft from this plastic warehouse was like nothing London had ever…
For perhaps the biggest day of your life, it is totally understandable that you’d want to have it held in an equally special venue. While there are many other wedding venues on the Mornington Peninsula that would be suitable for your wedding ceremony and reception, the Cups Estate Winery is one of the best venues in the…
