I captured Ingrid & Grant become Mr & Mrs Mitchell at the North Queensland Rodeo grounds at Hervey Range last weekend and it was awesome!! It was touch and go with the weather with a couple of light showers in the afternoon but we were lucky to have an awesome sunset sky!! Ingrid looked stunning in her hand made dress by the ever talented Estelle the Dress Maker!! It was a unique dress with a detachable overskirt which really made the dress that extra special especially when Ingrid made her entrance to the reception and removed it with one hand while still making her entrance and tossed it to her mother to catch!! Nailed it!! The ceremony location was stunning infront of the large American style barn frontage of the reception venue. The clouds creeped over and it got quite muggy and a little hot under the collar epescially for one poor guest who passed out moments before the first kiss! He was in good hands though as the lovely bride is a nurse and there were 5 ICU nurses attending as guests. The afternoon was very chilled and relaxed with Pimms, Beer and Champange being served up with some amazing grazing platters! Got some awesome shots around the venue with only venturing 100m from the guests to access some great locations for photos. The reception venue was massive and setup was minimal but classy and with bench seating and finger food on the flow the guest were settled in for a great night! Ingrid’s father got very emotional when it came time to talk about his gorgeous daughter and I even started to feel the emotion thinking of when I do the same at our daughters wedding!! Awesome day, awesome couple, congrats Mr & Mrs Mitchell and it was an honour to capture your special day!!
