Rustic Wedding in the Northern Beaches Sydney

Emma & Adam’s Story

A Rustic Wedding in the Northern Beaches of Sydney


Emma & Adam’s Rustic Wedding in the Northern Beaches Sydney


Emma and Adam held their ceremony and reception in the garden of their property in the Northern Beaches of Sydney. The couple handcrafted a beautiful reception and ceremony space with a marquee and a table tennis table. They said their vows under a huge Paperbark Tree.

I met Emma and Adam at Rowland Reserve where we photographed their bridal portraits and family portraits with their two little girls.

We headed to their property and I took some time to capture all the wonderful decorations and details they’d created, each full of great meaning to their family and friends.

It was time for their wedding ceremony and the girls led the couple with ribbons twirling.

After a heartfelt and joyous ceremony it was time to kick off the reception with tons of fun, games, speeches and dancing.



We are so happy Brendan was our photographer for our wedding day! He sure does know how to take the best photos of you, choose the best location, get the light right and he made it so easy to relax and have fun in front of the camera, especially me as I am camera shy! He absolutely nailed our brief to him- we wanted more candid & natural shots of us and our guests at the ceremony & reception & some of these photos are my favourites.

He has a professional manner, which helped him get the job done in a timely manner when it came numerous group portraits we requested. He also has a great sense of humour & knows how to make it fun and engage with everyone, especially our 2 young daughters who he was so patient with when they would rather have been playing with the sticks they found!

I cannot speak highly enough of the vast collection & high quality of the photos we received, ahead of the scheduled delivery time, and I would 1000% recommend and hire him again in an instant. Cheers Brendan!
