Shania + Brendan

Wedding, Cedar Creek Lodge.


I had the pleasure of capturing Shania and Brendan's most incredible wedding day at Cedar Creek Lodges, and it all started with a serendipitous twist. My lovely bride and groom, actually attended the same school back in the day, but can you believe it, they didn't know each other at all! Fate had a plan, though, 5 months after leaving school, they connected and have been inseparable ever since.

Cedar Creek Lodges, nestled deep within the enchanting Tamborine Mountain rainforest. It's one of my absolute favorite places to capture moments of love. This place is like a fairy tale come to life. Tucked away in the lush rainforest, it's a dreamy wonderland for any photographer. The wedding ceremony took place in the rainforest amphitheater, surrounded by towering trees and the soothing sounds of Cedar Creek gently trickling by. The ethereal vibe and intimate feel of a rainforest wedding – it's pure magic!


The photos we captured in the rainforest, with the misty surroundings (created by my smoke bomb!!), and the couple's infectious smiles and they amazing bridal party, was nothing short of spectacular. They encapsulated the essence of their love story – unique, unexpected, and utterly heartwarming.
