Anna & Michael St Peters Backyard Wedding

A wedding, at it’s best, is supposed to be a representation of who you are, your family & friends. But, what if it becomes something that isn’t you? There really seems to be so much pressure from so many different avenues these days on couples getting married, it’s really easy to get caught up with it all. And when I first met Michael & Anna, they had an idea of what they wanted for their backyard wedding, but were worried that it might end up becoming something that’s not representative of them.

Halfway through the process of organising everything they decided what actually was them wasn’t what they’d organised; they scrapped their original plans and decided to get married in their own backyard in their little house in St Peters.

These photos are a representation of who Michael & Anna really are, which is two people with an incredible story, a gorgeous daughter, loving family, and friends who flew from all over Australia and the world to attend their wedding day. The joy and intimacy of having their nearest and dearest not only strengthened the way their celebration unfolded, but also really is what a wedding should be, a celebration that suits who you and your family are.

  1. It’s pretty impossible to explain just what an amazing day this was for us, so meaningful and precious… But your photos do a pretty good job. I never tire of looking at them and am transported back to the happiest day of my life when I look at them. You and Nav are absolute superstars and we couldn’t have wished for more! Love this post and thank you for the kind words. Our wedding day was all we could have dreamed and more and every single photo is perfect. Thank you so much Jack x

  2. I love everything about this wedding: the details, how crazy in love the bride and groom clearly are, the warmth of the smiles and the warmth of the environment…you just did a perfect job. I want to be there.

  4. I loved every single bloody frame. Are those the most stylin people on earth, or what? Awesome job…I think that’s one of my favourite sets of wedding photos I’ve ever seen, seriously.
