About

My Wife and I have been photographers for over a decade and have used our beautiful property for many shoots. After many people asked us to host their wedding we decided to transform our property into a wedding venue that's ideal for wedding photography, wedding ceremony and receptions. We realised that many people lose precious hours from their wedding party on the day. Our venue is perfect for the ultimate place to get married and have stunning photos taken on your special day.
