Set against lush vineyards and coastal Bellarine views,
Jack Rabbit in Geelong delivered plenty of summer sun for Chris and Kate&rsquo;s incredible wedding day.

The morning started in Port Arlington, with soft light and a quiet build alongside friends and family, excited smiles and giddy nervousness already in full swing.

Before heading to the venue, Chris and Kate decided to share an intimate first look at the boutique Port Arlington Hotel. The photos ended up being a very real and perfect reflection of a genuinely special moment.

By the time everyone arrived at Jack Rabbit, blue skies were well and truly out. The ceremony took place framed by vineyard rows and long views across the Bellarine Peninsula. It was beautifully sweet and struck the perfect balance of easy-going, humorous, and emotionally real. <a href="https://www.kahanicelebrant.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celebrant Kahani</a> absolutely nailed the vibe.
&nbsp;

Following a whole heap of celebratory hugs and kisses and some roaming canapees, we captured some sunny bridal party and couples portraits amongst the vines.

When the sun began to dip, we went exploring out into the open fields for some glowing sunset portraits, making the most of the golden light as it rolled across the landscape. It was one of those evenings where every turn offered something new to photograph with each passing minute.

The celebrations carried on into the night, with music, laughter, and a full dance floor rounding out the day. Looking back, this wedding brought together all the things that make a great day to photograph: a beautiful location, great light, and a couple who made the most of every moment.

Congratulations again, Chris and Kate!

Some wedding days feel big, others feel quiet and intentional.
Tuey and Romain&rsquo;s wedding managed to be both.
All set against the tropical backdrop of Phu Quoc Island, Vietnam.

From the start of the day, everything felt relaxed and unforced. Getting ready was calm, full of laughter, and completely free of any rush. It was one of those mornings where everyone knew exactly what kind of day it was going to be. Easy, meaningful and one big celebration.

&nbsp;
The ceremony took place beneath tall palm trees, with the ocean stretching out behind them. Nothing felt overdone or staged. Just two people, surrounded by their closest friends and family, exchanging vows in a place that felt deeply personal to them and their relationship. Tuey wore a stunning Hacchic Couture dress, Romain looked effortlessly sharp, and together they set the tone for the entire day. Intimate, joyful, and full of warmth.

As the sun dropped and the light softened, we slipped away for a few quiet moments together. The sunset gave us one of those rare windows where everything slows down, and it was the perfect way to transition from ceremony into celebration.

Once night fell, the energy shifted. Music filled the space, guests spilled onto the dance floor, and the celebration took on a life of its own. With DJ Hairne behind the decks, the party rolled late into the night, exactly the way a day like this should end (and yes, we of course returned for the after party afterwards!).

Looking back, this wedding wasn&rsquo;t about ticking boxes or following traditions for the sake of it. It was about choosing a place that mattered, surrounding themselves with the right people, and creating a celebration that felt true to who they are.
&nbsp;
Tuey and Romain, thank you for trusting me to be part of it. Your wedding was thoughtful, fun, and genuinely unforgettable, and I couldn&rsquo;t have asked for a better way to experience Vietnam and Phu Quoc for the first time.

"One of the greatest decisions we made for our destination wedding in Phu Quoc, Vietnam was to have Nick as our photographer. We are incredibly grateful that he was available and accepted to join us on our crazy adventure."

A Dream Destination Wedding in Phu Quoc, Vietnam - Tuey & Romain

What an extraordinary day! The air was filled with the scent of sweet ice cream and salty hot chips, the sound of laughter, and the unmistakable buzz of an engagement party. The day was all about Daniel and Janay, who had invited their nearest and dearest to celebrate their engagement. Little did the guests know, they were in for a surprise of a lifetime.
&nbsp;
As the guests settled, enjoying the ice cream and popping prosecco, wedding celebrant Pip from GetMarriedwithPip, pulled back the curtain to reveal the truth. This wasn&rsquo;t just an engagement party, it was a wedding! Daniel and Janay were about to become husband and wife.
&nbsp;
The surprise was delivered in the outrageously vibey Kennylover Icecream Parlor. The couple entered to shocked expressions, instantly replaced with joy and tears of happiness. The atmosphere was electric with excitement as the couple said their 'I do's,' marking the start of their journey as a married couple.
&nbsp;
The celebrations didn&rsquo;t stop there though. The newlyweds and their guests moved to the reception venue, Welcome to Thornbury, where the energy levels remained high as they suprised the rest of their family and friends and danced the night away.
&nbsp;
This was a wedding that broke the conventional norms, and that's part of what made it so special. It was unique, personal, and full of surprises, a perfect reflection of Daniel and Janay's relationship. It was an absolute honor to be part of this wedding, to see the surprise unfold and to capture these beautiful moments.
&nbsp;
This experience was a reminder of the magic that happens when love, creativity, and a sense of adventure come together. It's weddings like these that make my work feel special.
&nbsp;
Here's to endless days of ice cream and hot chips, Daniel and Janay. You truly deserve it!

Hear what the couple had to say!

<h3 style="text-align: center;">"How does he do it?!?!?! Words cannot describe Nick&rsquo;s talent for all stages of the wedding photography process. From initial contact we had a strong feeling he&rsquo;d be our guy. Friendly, professional, beyond creative, and able to answer all questions big and small. His expertise meant it get seamless to coordinate how the day would be captured. We had a surprise wedding so the planning was even more complicated, but he made it work! All emails and communications were so clear! He also chose a videographer to work along side him and he was incredible too!!! On the day Nick seamlessly fit into the ceremony and party. Every single guest has complimented how amazing Nick was at capturing each moment and had everyone feel so comfortable. And then&hellip; the photos and videos&hellip; WE CRIED ALL THE HAPPY TEARS!!!!! We will never recover from how amazed and emotional we felt when we saw the sneak peak and then the whole gallery. All photos immediately became our phone backgrounds and printed for the house. We smile so much when we get to see them and share with friends and family. The way the gallery captured every emotion and moment on the day in such crisp quality from the perfect angles&hellip; just wowwww! We are beyond grateful to have Nick capture the most important day of our lives so far. Thank you Nick!!!!!!!!"</h3>

A Surprise Wedding - The Love Story of Daniel and Janay

A supposed engagement party turned surprise wedding with Janay & Daniel leaving all their partygoers smiling ear to ear and happily teary eyed as they said their "I Do's" at the vibrant Kenny Lover in Thornbury. With Ice Cream, Hot Chips and Prosecco by the bottle, this day was incredible and not one anyone will forget anytime soon. I could write on and on but I'll let their film and photographs do the heavy lifting, click the link through to watch their incredible day unfold and I hope you love it as much as we do!

Janay & Daniel's Surprise Wedding

"We were beyond thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Nick! From the moment we first met, his professionalism and passion for his craft shone through, and it only got better from there.
On our special day, Nick brought an incredible energy that added to the joyous atmosphere. He effortlessly captured every precious moment, from the heartfelt exchanges of vows to the exuberant celebrations on the dance floor. His ability to blend into the background while still managing to capture the essence of the day was truly remarkable. Working with Nick was an absolute pleasure, and we cannot recommend him highly enough."

Sherridan & Jordan

"We had the most wonderful experience with Nick as our wedding photographer and would strongly recommend him to anyone considering him for their special day. We found Nick to be very reasonably priced and extremely clear on the process. He is also friendly, very easy to work with and a lot of fun. Above all, the quality of Nick's work is outstanding. You only have to check out his insta page to see this. We appreciated that Nick took some time to get to know us as a couple before the wedding day and we think this gave him a sense of what we wanted to get out of the photos."

Cameron & Nick

"Nick has been super easygoing since the moment I reached out to him. He took the time to set up a Zoom meeting so he could learn more about our wedding and the styles we are looking for. He was super organised, and he even offered suggestions for our run sheet! On the day. I liked how he gave us cues during the photoshoot so we felt less awkward (lol). We received lots of compliments about how stunning the photos were. He also took lots of photos of our guests, so we had something to share with them after the wedding. Nick's photos are exactly the styles that we like, not to mention the wedding film that we received makes us feel like superstars! If anyone is looking for a wedding photographer, I would highly recommend Nick!🧡"

Cher & Evan

"Where do we begin!

Nick and his amazing crew went beyond our expectations (the photos are only the beginning) genuinely making our special day everything we could of asked for and more.

Nick was incredibly hands on, especially throughout the build up to our wedding day.

Frequently in communication, visiting the site, planning where moments would be captured.

Nick literally wrote our entire wedding schedule out for us that went to plan as smooth as ever!

Even sneaking in some sunset photos which are some of my favourites.

One of our friends in the bridal party was so impressed by the way nick and his crew were on the day, chilled, calm, easy going,  that after she booked them for her wedding too! The proof is in the pudding!"
