A wild day on Rottnest


Karl and Lindsay wanted an intimate wedding on an island with beautiful beaches. So they flew in from Darwin to celebrate with their close family members on our local favourite, Rottnest Island.


The weather missed the memo for idyllic sunny skies and still water, so the ceremony was moved into the beautiful character filled function area at Samphire Resort, where an inquisitive quokka could have signed off as a main witness.


We did get the chance to get out for some amazing beach photos, thank you Karl and Lindsay for being keen to get out there and make the most of the stormy weather, it's certainly made for stunning images.
