Violet & Verdant

A beautiful day of colour, contrast and quiet elegance.

From the ceremony at North Ryde Uniting Church to bridal portraits immersed in nature at West Head Lookout in Ku-ring-gai Chase, then on to San Martin at Akuna Bay for a celebration by the water.

Purple bridesmaid dresses, beige suits, a groom in green and a bride in white; a palette that felt effortlessly modern, romantic and completely their own.

Love, In Low Gear.

A wedding with no need to follow the usual rules. Boots instead of heels, winter jackets instead of suits, no ties, and a bare wooden arch overlooking the farmland.

At Camden Valley Inn, everything felt relaxed, personal and unmistakably them. Their love of Subaru and cars brought them together, so each guest received a little personalised toy car as a keepsake.

There was plenty of laughter, a few games, a lot of dancing, and a sparkler send-off to finish the night.

Just good people, good times and love, in low gear.

A wedding with a little bit of everything. A grand bridal party, an Imperial March entrance, lightsabers on the dance floor, a singing chef, dry ice, fireworks, and a gelato cart to keep the sweet lovers happy.

From Our Lady of Victories to Novella on the Park, this was one celebration that definitely knew how to make an entrance.

Thinking of booking a family or couple photoshoot in the near future? Here’s a little bonus for you — Airbnb is currently offering a $150 discount on selected bookings!

I offer family portrait and couple photoshoot sessions through Airbnb, and I’ve just received this great offer from the Airbnb team that I thought I’d share with all our awesome Chalk & Cheese Photography supporters.

I was told by the Airbnb manager that the discount coupons were fully redeemed in less than one week last time, so if you’ve been thinking about booking a session, I’d recommend acting quickly.

The $150 discount should show up when you make your booking. If you don’t see the discount at checkout, it means all the available coupons have already been claimed.

Can’t find a time slot that works for you? No worries. Just pick any available time in September to lock in the discount, then send me a private message. I’m happy to honour the Airbnb discount for bookings outside the original booking period, right through to early December.

So, if you’ve been looking for an excuse to update your family photos, celebrate your relationship, or simply have some fun in front of the camera, this could be a good opportunity.

Two of us, doing it our way.

A simple ceremony at Pyrmont, a walk for portraits, then lunch with the people who matter most. No fuss, no big production — just two people, dressed up, deeply in love, and surrounded by their favourite people.

Some celebrations don’t need much. Just the right two, and the right people around them.

Par for love. ⛳️

A beautiful day at Twin Creeks, where white, burgundy, ivory and navy came together against the greens of the golf course.

From quiet moments between the fairways to portraits around the course, and finally fireworks lighting up the night, it was a pretty perfect round.

Here’s to finding your perfect partner and playing the long game together. ✨

Not every love story needs a grand ballroom to make a statement.

With their closest family by their side, they exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony at Pyrmont Wedding Registry before wandering the harbour, letting the city become part of their story. A sleek black suit, an elegant silk gown, and a waterfront boardwalk that became the most unexpected dance floor for their very first dance.

Proof that style isn’t measured by the size of the celebration. Sometimes it’s found in the quiet moments, the confident glances, and the freedom to celebrate your love your own way.

Some weddings whisper. This one did it with impeccable style.

There couldn't be a more fitting way to celebrate a little man turning one than with a carefree morning by the ocean, where every giggle, curious little step and salty breeze became part of his story.

A first birthday marks a year filled with firsts, tiny milestones, endless cuddles, sandy toes and memories to be treasured for a lifetime.

Happy 1st birthday to the sweetest little soul. Here's to a lifetime of adventures, sunshine and beautiful moments like these.

Some weddings have a colour palette. This one had a story.

From the bridesmaids in striking red to the groom’s textured black jacket, every detail was thoughtfully connected. Red roses filled the bouquet, framed the ceremony arch, lined the aisle, and showered the couple as they walked back down the aisle as newlyweds. Even the champagne tower was finished with delicate red ribbons, proving that no detail was too small.

As the sun disappeared, candlelight brought a different kind of warmth. The rich reds became softer, the atmosphere more intimate, and Kalinya Estate felt effortlessly romantic.

A wedding where every shade of red symbolised love, celebration, family, and the beginning of a beautiful new chapter.
