Dan + Kacey | Buckland Estate, Northam WA | 9 January 2021 {Perth, Avon Valley & Wheatbelt Wedding Photographer}

Dan and Kacey waited an additional nine months to tie the knot, after postponing their original plans for an Easter wedding when Covid hit early in 2020. And as Murphy’s Law would have it, their cool, Autumn wedding day was replaced with one of the hottest days we’ve had out here this Summer, at a cracking hot and slightly stormy 43 degrees!

High temps are tough enough for those of us who live in the Wheatbelt and are acclimatised to the conditions, so I can only imagine how this predominantly Perth based couple and their guests felt as the temperature soared on the 9th January! But being true legends, they forged ahead, without dropping any of our plans to march through paddocks or dance on sunset in the name of epic images. And it was totally worth it - after a relatively dark, overcast afternoon, the temperature dropped to a ‘mild’ 39 degrees, and the sun peeked through with just enough time left to nail the stunning images you see below!

Special mention to the following suppliers for battling through the heat and making Dan and Kacey’s day one to remember. Buckland Estate (venue), Three Seventy Hair Salon (hair & makeup), Lotus Floristry (flowers), Jonte Designs (gown), Totem Glamping (safari tents), and Base Woodfired Pizza (catering).

And of course, a huge thankyou to Dan and Kacey for entrusting their wedding day to me, and for the sweet little note of thanks I received below - you guys rock!

“We just got our prints! They are stunning! We are so happy with all the photos - they are perfect, and exactly what we had hoped for. Thankyou so much for nailing our vision Angie!”

 

Nic + Tenielle | Rustic Farm Wedding, Merredin | 16 December 2017 {Perth, Avon Valley & Wheatbelt Photographer}

It was a typically warm and windy summers day for Nic and Tenielle's rustic farm wedding, held on the family property in Korbel (between Kellerberrin and Merredin), in Western Australia, a week before Christmas. 

With the ceremony held in a paddock surrounding historic Massingham's Rock, and a machinery shed converted into a stunning reception venue, this wedding had all the elements one could hope for at a rural Australian wedding.

A host of gorgeous details, including eucalyptus table runners, blackboards, wine barrels, hay bales, packing crates, vintage suitcases and crockery, hessian bunting and festoon lights, all came together to create a rustic, DIY vibe, perfectly suited to Nic and Tenielle's big day.   Add to that a full selection of drinks from the bar in the corner of the shed, some amazing food by the clever folk at Supper Road (all the way from Margaret River in the southwest!), and a close circle of family and friends, and you have everything you need for a totally awesome day.

A huge thanks to vendors Leanne Meldrum (celebrant), Bloom Tribe (flowers), Tenielle's sister Emma Growden (cake), Lush Hair & Makeup (makeup), Nicola Richards Hair Studio (hair), Tuscany Bridal (gown), MJ Bale (suits), and Supper Road (catering), who all helped make the day so memorable. 

Congratulations Nic and Tenielle, and thankyou so much for choosing me to cover your beautiful wedding for you, it was such a fabulous way for me to end the year!
