Augustine & Gek – Lancelin Sand Dunes Pre-Wedding

Gus and Gek travelled to Perth from Singapore especially to shoot their pre-wedding in the Lancelin Sand Dunes. They’re about 1 hour 45 mins drive north of Perth and we’ve been travelling to shoot our couples in Lancelin since 2013. It’s a friendly coastal town and the locals are warm and welcoming so if you haven’t been, I suggest you check it out!

Gus and Gek travelled to Perth from Singapore especially to shoot their pre-wedding in the Lancelin Sand Dunes. They’re about 1 hour 45 mins drive north of Perth and we’ve been travelling to shoot our couples in Lancelin since 2013. It’s a friendly coastal town and the locals are warm and welcoming so if you haven’t been, I suggest you check it out!

Lancelin has a reputation as a great place for sand boarding and 4WD fun. Many thousands of tourists world-wide travel there to hire a board and surf down the fine white sand or get into one of the dune buggys. As far as Lancelin pre-wedding shoots go, it started when a couple sent me a photo of a white sandy desert and asked:

“Can we shoot in the Australian desert?”

I don’t think they quite realised what the Australian desert really looks like. We do have dunes, but the sand is a deep red and the temperatures are scorching. Not to mention we have killer snakes and prickly spinifex grass. The photo they sent me was actually taken at the White Sands National Monument in New Mexico, USA. So the best alternative I could offer was a visit to Lancelin and it started a love affair with that place that has allowed me to win multiple Fearless Awards and Grand Prize runner up in the 2018 International Wedding Photographer Of The Year Awards.

Gek is a professional model and normally we’re specialists at making everyday people look amazing. In this case it felt like cheating as I was learning things from her by observing the way she contorts her body and plays it up for the camera. In our pine forest shoot she was adorned in a gown by Berta Bridal worth $15,000 and I was sending her back and forth through the scrub!  She challenged me to see if I could give her dunes, forests and Stars all in one day. Mission accomplished!

Here are some favourites from their day.

Curtis & Tamara – Aravina Estate Wedding

Tam and Curt’s big day was our first Aravina Estate Wedding down in Yallingup. Yallingup is a small coastal tourist town about 30mins North of Margaret River’s central township  and it was a major highlight of 2018 for us. We’ve shot at numerous wedding venues in the Southwest but I’d have to say that Aravina Estate is one of the very best. They have the best natural backdrop with the vines in the distance visible from the wedding arbour. The food is also incredible so all the guests were delighted…

They have the best natural backdrop with the vines in the distance visible from the wedding arbour. The food is also incredible so all the guests were delighted.

Their wedding was years in the making as I first met Tam and Curt 6 years ago at one of my earliest weddings. I photographed Tam’s older sister Natasha’s wedding in the beginning of 2013. That was back in the early days when were were trying to establish ourselves in the local wedding scene. It’s one of my most memorable weddings and the whole family has become near and dear to me. Tam was a bridesmaid back then. She and Curt were together even then and they danced like nobody was watching (I have proof!)

Not much has changed as you’re going to see but Oh how far we’ve come! Their relationship blossomed and we’ve moved up many many notches on the photography belt so I can’t wait to show you this entry!

You can’t have asked for a better setting than what we have in the Southwest. That amazing cliff-lined coast never gets old. Normally we’re trying to hide the outdoors when shooting inside but here, we’re letting in as much as possible!

Thomas & Anne – Barrett Lane Wedding

Tom’s a Guildford boy and so he and Anne were married at Guildford Grammar School Chapel with their reception at Barrett Lane Function Centre. We had the privilege of shooting photos AND video for their wedding so this post gives you a good idea of how we marry the two at a wedding…

I don’t need to tell you much about how Tom and Anne met, scroll down to the end and watch their wedding video. It’s underscored by Tom’s speech at the reception which tells you everything you need to know (and more).

The floral arrangements hung on the ceiling beams are some of the most amazing I’ve ever seen. It really gives you an idea of how you can dress up the room. Here are the dream team of vendors involved on the day:

WEDDING VIDEO – Highlight Film

Wedding Films were a new offering for us in 2018 and we’ve added some of the best filmmakers to our team so if you want a studio to handle all the memories on your wedding day I’m proud to say “we’d love to serve you!”. Enjoy Tom and Anne’s Wedding film below.

Barrett Lane Function Centre Weddings

Barrett Lane Function centre is one of my favourite venues for weddings in Swan Valley. It’s tucked away down Lennard St in Herne Hill so you wouldn’t automatically know it was in Swan Valley unless you were specifically looking for it.

We’ve photographed weddings there numerous times through different seasons and it is one of the few venues that provides an intimate backyard setting. Probably because it is literally in the host’s backyard. Barrett Lane is situated in the North-east part of Swan Valley which gives us a lot of photo location opportunities throughout the year. We can easily duck out (ten minutes drive) with your bridal party to some spectacular spots if a change in scenery is required…

We’ve photographed weddings there numerous times through different seasons and it is one of the few venues that provides an intimate backyard setting. Probably because it is literally in the host’s backyard. Barrett Lane is situated in the North-east part of Swan Valley which gives us a lot of photo location opportunities throughout the year. We can easily duck out (ten minutes drive) with your bridal party to some spectacular spots if a change in scenery is required. Daniel from Showcase Catering is the exclusive caterer for the venue and they always provide the bridal party with an assortment of takeaway canapes. That way your bridal party has plenty to munch on whilst we’re shooting away. We’ve photographed at nearly all the venues in WA and I’d have to say the food Danny put’s out is up there with the very best in Perth. Your guests will not be disappointed.

One thing you’d probably never think of when choosing a venue is the orientation of the property. Barrett Lane’s ceremony space and function building faces west. As we know the sun sets in the west and most receptions start their pre-dinner drinks and canapes just before sunset. That means your guests and family members get an unobstructed view of the sunset overlooking the vines. Photographically speaking, you could not ask for anything better!

Barrett Lane Function Centre Wedding

Here are a few image sets from past weddings at Barrett Lane. I’ve selected a few images from each wedding to give you a feel of how we capture the day as well as how the venue can look once it is set out for your guests. Most importantly, we want to show you how it feels after the sun has set, the lights dim and you’re sharing the best night of your life with the people you love.

Tom & Anne

Tom and Anne were married at Guildford Grammar School Chapel with their reception at Barrett Lane. Anne had one of the most amazing floral arrangements I’ve ever seen hung on the ceiling beams inside the function room. It really gives you an idea of how you can really dress up the room. The beauty of Barrett Lane is that having a rustic venue you have the freedom to add personal touches and whether simple or elaborate, the result is guaranteed to be beautiful and personal.

Hoang & Amanda

Here is an early winter wedding at Barrett Lane in June (before the vines shed their leaves). Most Perth couples are worried about planning winter weddings so they often avoid bookings in June through August. However what most people don’t realise is that Winter doesn’t usually hit hard until July so we often get sunny warm days in June that make weddings very comfortable. In fact most of the rainy weddings I’ve photographed tend to occur in September and October, right in the early spring months when Winter sticks around a little too long.

Amanda and Hoang’s outfits were also a little different to the norm where they swapped traditional outfit colours, something you rarely see at weddings!

Quinn & Connie

Quinn and Connie chose Barrett Lane on our recommendation to finish off a whirlwind series of wedding events. They spent two days with us in Perth for one of our most elaborate pre-wedding shoots, followed by a wedding ceremony and banquet in Hong Kong with over 300 guests. Many of their Perth friends couldn’t make their wedding so they decided to hold a party for about 60 friends at Barrett Lane, complete with freshly shucked oysters and a three course meal. Here is a little snippet of their day followed by a few frames from their pre-wedding shoot!
