Andreea & Marco

I first met Andreea and Marco in June. They flew over from Canberra to plan their wedding. I loved getting to know them – from that first meeting over milkshakes, to our engagement session in September, and our final pre-wedding catch-up in the week before the wedding. They have quite the story behind them: Andreea and her family, originally from Romania, moved to Australia some years ago. Meanwhile, Marco and his family grew up in Germany and settled in France. He returned to Germany to study, where he met the gorgeous Andreea while she was over studying from Australia. Eventually, Marco followed Andreea back to Australia to be with her, and they haven’t looked back since! As he said to his new bride during the speeches: “I would go anywhere in the world, as long as I’m with you.” (That little moment made my heart stop, and I think it probably made everyone else’s heart stop too!)

Watching how special this wedding was, not just to Andreea and Marco but also to their friends and family (many of whom had flown long distances to be there) was a real joy. We had some beautiful weather on our side – not too hot, not too cold.  The ceremony was held at Carrick Hill (my first wedding there!) and the reception was held in the beautiful Crystal Room at the Stamford Plaza in Adelaide.

Thank you, Andreea and Marco, for allowing me to capture this very special day for you – I loved every second!

I spent a little while trying to figure out how to smuggle this cute little thing out in my camera bag…

Trying to set up a Skype link for family in Romania…unfortunately it didn’t quite work out…
