Georgie and Campbell's Frogmore Creek Winery Wedding

Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of capturing Georgie & Campbell's Vineyard wedding, hosted at the stunning Frogmore Creek. We were in for a treat. Frogmore is one of my fave places to shoot, offering both incredibly spacious indoor and outdoor options—perfect for those unexpected Tassie rain showers (because, let's be real, they happen.. All the bloody time). Also, the food and wine is drool worthy, so there’s that 🤤.

I don’t say this lightly - The Point is a really great spot to get ready!
The house has massive polished concrete floors and walls and giant windows that reveal panoramic views of the wild Tasmanian cliffs below. My jaw? on the floor. It is a sophisticated haven in the midst of Tassie’s rugged beauty.

While I specialise in elopements and intimate weddings, Georgie & Campbells big day stole a piece of my heart. It was epic in all the right ways—definitely a highlight of my year.

Here’s what they have to say - 

When and how did you meet?

We met while Georgie was in Canberra doing her Masters, we met on a night out through mutual friends.

Why did you get married at your wedding venue?

After looking at a few different venues, we ended up at Frogmore Creek and instantly fell in love with the vineyard, the building and the location. It ticked all the boxes.

What was the the best part of your day?

We both had lots of favourite parts during the day and it’s really hard to pick one so we’ll go with what first came to mind.

Campbell - it would have to be when I found out that all of Georgie’s siblings had arranged a surprise helicopter arrival for her. I was so excited for her!

Georgie - I have two favourite moments. Firstly, exchanging our vowels in private after our “first look”. Secondly, walking down the aisle and seeing all of our favourite people in one place and Campbell standing at the end.

Funniest or most iconic moment at your wedding?

Probably the helicopter arrival. The shock and surprise that swept through our guests was both hilarious and iconic.

Any advice for engaged couples?

Spend as much time together as you can on the day. Our ceremony was at 5:30pm so we made the decision early on to do a “first look” so we could spend more time together. Don’t compromise what you want for others. This day is about the two of you.

Jess & Will's East Coast Tasmanian Elopement

This little destination elopement has been a long time coming on the blog and one of my all time favourites from early on this year. Jess & Will are two of the kindest I’ve met on this journey and I’m so keen to share a bit of their story from their perspective. 

Meet Jess and Will, two Sydney-siders who decided they wanted to get hitched in Tassie with just 11 guests and their 4WD.  Here’s what the two legends have to say about their day!

When and how did you meet? 

We met in 2015 at a friend’s 21st with a very classy theme - CEOs and office hoes. We bantered from the beginning about who was the CEO in the relationship, and it’s still a point of discussion (it’s definitely Jess).

Why did you decide to get married at Freycinet Lodge? 

We considered so many different options for our wedding and were becoming quite overwhelmed at the idea of a huge wedding, both coming from big families. We found Freycinet Lodge in a 4am panic google of elopement packages and it ticked so many boxes. Neither of us had ever been to Freycinet before, but it was an absolutely stunning location we couldn’t say no to.

What was the the best part of your day? 

We’re not just saying this because it’s Ed’s blog - but whenever anyone asks this question, we always say the best part of the day was getting our photos taken after the ceremony. The whole day was wonderful, we adored spending so much time celebrating with our families, but having that time to ourselves feeling so in love was definitely the highlight.

Funniest or most iconic moment at your elopement?  

One of the most iconic parts of our elopement was how heavily Will’s 4WD was featured. Never thought there’d be so much car content in our wedding photos, but Ed ticked all our boxes of including a few photos featuring Will’s car (balanced with plenty of stunning non-car related content!). The stunning location of Freycinet will also be another iconic feature of any wedding in the area.

Any advice for engaged couples / any regrets or things you would do differently? 

For us, those months before we decided on a location and style of wedding (big vs elopement) was the most stressful period. Once we made that decision, the rest of the wedding planning process was so enjoyable, so we wish we just made a decision sooner and followed our instincts, as the elopement ended up being so perfectly “us”. Trust your gut with every step of the way, and if you’re a people pleaser (like Jess) try to push past that and do what you want for your wedding - you’re the ones who will remember it for the rest of your lives (and look at the photos daily, still 8 months on!!)

Claire -

“We reached out to Ed for a couple shoot, and we could not have found a more perfect photographer. Ed is a legend and made the whole process so easy and straight forward. He is so warm, down to earth and professional.

Ed made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and we had a really great time. Ed has such a gift and managed to capture so much fun and love in the photos. We could not be happier!

I haven’t stopped looking at the photos since receiving them! Thanks again Ed, we’ll really treasure these photos for a long time to come!”

Josh -

“Absolutely reccomend Ed as a brilliant couple's photographer. Ed is friendly, full of great ideas and excited to run with suggestions. Had a wonderful shoot with my partner, entire experience was laid-back, fun, and resulted in great photos. Apologies for the pun, but he was incr-Ed-ible.
Thanks Ed.”
