About the day
Rainbow at Lovers Rock 🌈
Shylie mentioned her Mother’s ashes were at Lovers Rock – it was a sign!
It poured rain all day which is SO unusual for May (typically May + Aug are the driest months of the year).
We were setup for Plan B – ceremony in their gorgeous room at The Pink Hotel, Coolangatta. White piano, velvet couches, neon lights and plenty of natural light – it was going to be equally breathtaking!
Like most rainy days it went out to sea, quick judgement call… yep… let’s jump in the cars and head to Lovers Rock!
We ended up with a rainbow and an hour of insane light for portraits!
Bright turquoise ocean against the black rocks…. golden sun drenched boardwalk…. pink clouds creating soft and flattering light…. a photographers dream!
Love story
“They were partnered up at mutual friend’s wedding party and she quickly adopted the attitude of having zero time for the sexy single party guy, but Jeremy was entranced by the beautiful Shylie and worked hard to show her that he was much more than that.
A perfect afternoon of drinking and watching the football at Shylie’s house (even though she hates football), confirmed what they had both began to suspect – they had found their forever person.
On Wednesday, we dodged the weather to get them hitched at Lovers Rock Park in Tweed Heads and it was perfection.”
