Daniel & Larissa were married in a beautiful ceremony at Woodlands on a sunny December Saturday.

We began the day with the boys shots - Larissa had left a gift for Daniel (a really cool piece of art) - and we got to see his face as he unwrapped it - awesome!

Then it was around to Larissa's place, where Susie Rutz was doing a gorgeous job (as always) with the makeup, and Karen from 'Wedding Flowers by Karen' arrived with the stunning bouquets.

Larissa's dress had fantastic black buttons, which not only gave a really nice contrast point to the dress, but made for plenty of "here's Mum's hands buttoning the dress" photos too!

Then it was off to Woodlands - where I caught one of my favourite ever walking up the aisle shots - I just love Larissa's face, it tells such a story.

Tears were widespread throughout the ceremony actually - Amber & I were struggling to hold them back when Larissa's brother read a beautiful poem at the conclusion of the ceremony.

Then we went off for some shots around the beautiful grounds - including a new spot we chanced upon, which had perfect soft, long grass - just what we look for!

I love the warmth of the photos - the sun was out, it was warm (but still not too hot) and we had a fantastic time.

It really was a beautiful wedding - thanks so much for having us along to share a part in it!
