Melanie and Mark

 ”Rain, Rain GO AWAY!” was the wish of the day for Mel and Mark’s wedding.  The sun kept trying to break through but then it would be covered again and the rain would come down once more. For a wedding planned at, An Island Hideaway on South Stradbroke Island, rainy weather isn’t really something you want to think about.

We photographed the boys with a bit of thunder rumbling in the distance.

We then photographed the girls and dodged intermittent showers whilst getting some shots outdoors.

However Alex and I kept on assuring Mel that the weather would clear in time for her day and she would end up with an amazing sunset. Everyone was staying as positive as they could as they headed to the boats to make their way to the island. And wouldn’t you know it? The day ended up perfect. Family and friends were gathered round enjoying a wonderful afternoon and Mel and Mark had a spectacular sunset on the day of their marriage.

Mel and Mark and all the attendants were just amazing and loads of laughs. It was clear that this was such a friendly and loving group of people who had come together to celebrate the day and enjoy themselves and it was an added bonus that the weather was perfect.

Congratulations on your marriage Mel and Mark.:)

That silhouette shot freaking ROCKS MY WORLD.

Aaaand I also love the groomsmen on the different balconies. great idea to have them run. You’re so creative Alicia!

(Added by Alicia: I’d love to take credit for the groomsmen shots but they were Alex’s. He goes alright.)

First of all, the bride is very beautiful. She looks like a beautiful elven princess in a fantasy story. And then, I am blown away by your photography! I love the creativity in your portraits. I have so much to say but sum it up as AWESOME.

Oh my goodness this wedding is super fun! The humor and joy is so present in the whole set of photos! It seems like everyone got quite comfortable with having you two there, snapping photos. Also she is so lovely and he is handsome, and how adorable is this couple!!!!!
