Stacey and Justin: Engagement Session

Well these two are just so sweet and gorgeous! I seriously cannot wait for their wedding. Stacey has assured me she is having a big train and veil so I’ll be working those on the beach for their location portraits!

This was an eventful session! Just a couple of hours before, my stepdaughter fell off her bike and managed to cut the back of her head. I took her to the hospital just in case, as it was bleeding a lot, but she was fine - just a little egg under all that blood! Better to be safe than sorry though I say.

Then Stacey and I couldn’t find each other for a while, and when she rang to find me near the Round House in Freo, I accidentally locked the keys in my car. Great!

Rang the RAC, went off to do the shoot, came back to get the keys from the lovely RAC man. Do you know they use a blood pressure pump! Stacey joked she could have done it if she had one in the car (she’s a nurse!). Off we went for part 2 of Engagement session…and caught the beautiful golden sunlight.

Here are some of my faves:


Flare, just for you Michelle…

I love how Stacey looks at her man…wow

What a handsome fella! Check out the eyes!

Loved this one as soon as I took it. This is straight out of camera. The 135L strikes again.

Awww so cute! Love this moment


I love Stacey’s expression in this - so dramatic!



And ‘arty-farty’ shot of the day. Just love this - the windswept hair is gorgeous.

Next three with the help of my available ‘video light’ aka the streetlamp!

So dramatic. Contrasty black and whites just do it for me and with such a gorgeous couple!


Shot from the top of the steps at the Round House looking back towards Freo. I love this. Really have to do some more night shooting. Techie notes: 800 ISO, 135L (again), 1/250s at f/2

Oh and I just wanted to say a big thank you to Stacey and her fellow nurses. You all do such a wonderful job and after spending an hour at the hospital with Amber, I appreciate it even more. xox
