Bellingen Engagement Session

I was super excited to hear from Nikki and Ben for two reasons. Firstly, because I instantly clicked with them and their wedding sounded right up my alley – and secondly, because they were from Bellingen, the gorgeous little town that I am very soon to call home!

I met up with them in Bello on a sleepy Saturday afternoon. We sipped chai at the Black Bear Cafe, and wandered past Cedar Bar – their reception venue – to have a sneaky peek at another wedding in progress. We then jumped in the car and drove down the winding tree-lined streets out to Brierfield and Kalang, and then back down to the banks of the Bellinger River. Ben didn’t push Nikki in the river.. but he tried.

I will officially be based out of Bellingen, NSW as of January 2018, so if you’re a couple crazy in love based on the North Coast – get in touch! I’d love to capture your rad love for you. Can’t wait to be there when these two get hitched in April!
