Jovana and Davor hired the estate for their wedding so as they could have a truly relaxed ceremony and a great big party which could run as late and as loudly as they so desired!
More from this beautifully relaxed and personal wedding soon.

The Bride
Monday, November 23rd, 2009
Just thought I’d share this photograph of a bride I photographed at a recent wedding. It was taken just before the ceremony, on the top level of this beautiful private house they’d hired in the Yarra Valley. The estate is set on lush green gardens overlooking it’s own private lake.
Yarra Valley Weekend | Melbourne Photographer
Monday, July 6th, 2009
Last weekend I managed to escape the city streets for a weekend at the Yarra Valley. I find myself working most weekends so it is a very rare and very exciting opportunity. But having friends visiting from Queensland seemed like as good a reason as any to take a long weekend. And the fact that I love taking a holiday.
The Yarra Valley is absolutely stunning and it is obvious why it is a popular wedding destination. Landscape photography is something I’ve never really gotten into but when presented with a stunning location it is hard not to be inspired. The rugged weather does fantastic things with lighting and I braved the cold to do a few shots. But don’t be put off by the cold as wine, cheese and beautiful views are best enjoyed in front of a roaring fire.
For the second photo in this series we were driving along between wineries and I noticed the sun streaming through the clouds. I exclaimed for Dave to “STOP”, jumped out and managed to get three shots before the sun disappeared again. The portrait is of Graham, a friend of mine who waited patiently in the cold while I clambered around in the mud on the side of the hill.
