Viv + Dong … •☾• … Emu Mountain Engagement

Emu Mountain Engagement, Sunshine Coast

Emu Mountain Engagement, Sunshine Coast

Back in my days as a Language Neuroscientist in Brisbane, I used to meet new people in hospitals, at conferences and in meeting rooms. Now I meet new people up mountain tops, so that’s definitely a step up {pun 100% intended}.

We met Viv & Dong at Emu Mountain for their engagement session to get to know each other and to create something beautiful to remember this time in their lives. Their wedding is coming up next May and the engagement session is part of their Ruby package for full-day photo + film coverage by us and our mates from White Lace Films. We timed everything for this shoot to catch sunset and the sky put on quite the show for us. Viv absolutely nailed her engagement outfit with her flowy blush gown that had the slightest sparkle to it.

Here are some beautiful words that made our day:
”Hi Tina & Doruk,
Best start to the weekend! Thank you!! The photos are amazing, as expected. I've just shown my best mate and she's just squealing away at how great they are. We have had sooo many compliments! They make our hearts feel so warm. We weren't planning to but are now definitely going to use them for our 'Save The Date' invites. Thank you both so much! We are soo excited for the wedding photos already! We often get carried away with regular life until things like these photos remind us of the greatness within it.”

Samford Engagement … •☾• … feat. Frankie the Aussie Shepherd
Samford Engagement … •☾• … feat. Frankie the Aussie Shepherd

What rain? Nothing phases this beautiful family of three. We had a weather forecast of scattered thunderstorms ahead of our engagement shoot out at Samford, but decided to go for it regardless. We were rewarded with a gorgeous moody sky and an extra charming session with Mich, Charles and their Australian Shepherd baby Frankie. I had spent the previous evening making some blush pink florals for Mich’s hat and for Frankie. They decided to use my wreath for Frankie at their wedding when she will be the ring bearer - so looking forward for all of that to go down this June.

CEDAR CREEK ENGAGEMENT … •☾• … GEORGIA + DEVON
CEDAR CREEK ENGAGEMENT … •☾• … GEORGIA + DEVON

“When I hired Tina, Doruk and the Lovelenscapes team, I didn't know that I would also be making lifelong friends.
Their photography is perfection. They worked with me to sort out a vision and theme for my engagement photoshoot and produced something beyond my wildest imaginations. They instantly made myself and my fiancé feel so comfortable. Everything felt natural and it was such a beautiful and romantic moment and the photos they captured really show that. Their style is so artistic and unique I truly haven't seen anything like it. I knew that any photos they took would be reflective of our relationship and be rare. They really are works of art.”

SAMFORD ENGAGEMENT … •☾• … Ai-Vi + Matt
SAMFORD ENGAGEMENT … •☾• … Ai-Vi + Matt

Stormy skies and the mountains. When in Meteorological doubt, we always decide to make a run for it, and we’re so glad we did for Ai-Vi & Matt’s beautiful engagement photos. Their photos turned out quite painterly, romantic and intimate and we used a fine art editing technique to bring exactly that mood to the forefront. This shoot got under my skin and kept me up at night for its beauty and its portrait of two sweet souls in love. We hope you can feel it all with us.

EMU MOUNTAIN ENGAGEMENT … •☾• … NISA + KEVIN
EMU MOUNTAIN ENGAGEMENT … •☾• … NISA + KEVIN

It’s as majestic and picturesque as Mount Coolum, but nowhere near as tough to climb. Needless to say Emu Mountain is an absolute gem for engagement sessions if you love mountains, perfect sunset views and a hint of ocean in the background. It’s wild and beautiful up there and it only takes 10 minutes to walk up. Nisa did it in heels. It’s easy.

We shot and produced one of our Signature Portrait Sessions for Nisa & Kevin, which meant they got the digital images, plus our Italian-made magazines and more in the mail to enjoy over the years.

We will let the photos speak for themselves. Congratulations, Nisa & Kevin. We can’t wait for your wedding later this year.

WHISKEY BAR KISSES … •☾• … ENGAGEMENT
WHISKEY BAR KISSES … •☾• … ENGAGEMENT

Maddie & Alex met many years ago, working behind the Whiskey Bar at The Regatta Hotel before pursuing their current careers as a Paramedic and Nurse {what a match!}. I looked up the colours of the place before the shoot, noticed the chocolate browns and asked Maddie about golden, sparkly outfit options. Turns out Alex had already gifted her the perfect golden dress for this shoot. Done. The End. Two emails into this and the entire thing was organised.

Maddie had a glass of Moët waiting for me. Alex swung around the ladder to find a whiskey for Doruk. We had to get with the program.

Mackenzie, Tim + Harper … •☾• … Sunrise Engagement Photos Brisbane

Moon and Venus were still up in the sky when we met with Mackenzie, Tim & furbaby Harper for our sunrise engagement photo session at Queens Beach in Redcliffe. Not all couples would be up to splashing around in the ocean at 13 degrees with their bare feet. We welcomed the day with a beautiful golden sunrise, smokebombs and florals that I made for Mackenzie, inspired by her auburn locks. We can’t wait for their wedding at The Hideaway at the Sunshine Coast in October. Enjoy looking through this little piece of sunrise magic. We’re up for shoots like these, always, always.

Lisa + David … •☾• … Mount Tamborine Autumn Engagement

We escaped Brisbane on Mother’s Day to get a glimpse of autumn at Mount Tamborine for Lisa & David’s sunset engagement photos. Our shoot took us from the Tamborine Botanic Gardens to Robert Sowter lookout and there were glorious autumn trees, a golden sunset and champagne to celebrate, so needless to say it was perfect.

Hannah + Andrew … •☾• … Mount Glorious Engagement

Hannah is a brewer and Andrew is a winemaker and they are both working at one of our favourite wedding venues, Ocean View Estates, one hour out of Brisbane. They greeted us with a bottle of delicious Ocean View Sparkling in hand, which we drank later on while we edited their photos. Needless to say we instantly felt wonderful around these two and we can’t wait for their wedding coming up this May {super soon!!}.
