Rachel + Xavier's Howqua Valley Views Wedding


Wow, what a way to finish the wedding season! On Saturday I made the trip over to Jamieson in North East Victoria to capture Rach + Xavier's wedding preparations. There were some beautiful touches to the details which caused a few laughs and plenty of watery eyes... or Hay Fever! From Jamieson, we headed back towards Mansfield and into Howqua Valley Views, looking up at Mt.Buller, for the ceremony and to party the night away! It was so good to be back shooting in this area and seeing some familiar faces, we worked out that it was 10 years since Bec (Celebrant) and I had last worked together. From the preparations to the stunning sunset, this was beautiful day and was a pleasure to capture and be part of! J
