Angie + Dave | Wedding at the National Arboretum in Canberra

Angie + Dave | Wedding at the National Arboretum in Canberra

Angie and Dave married at National Arboretum on a sunny April afternoon… We felt truly honoured to be invited to photograph this wedding, especially returning to a city where Marty grew up and Dani spent years studying in. Despite both living in Canberra, We had never met until Angie introduced us in Melbourne… so this wedding was extra special for us because Folkstone would not exist if it weren’t for Angie! Congratulations to a super sweet couple, and thank you for trusting us to capture your love story.

Vivian + Mike | Wedding at Leonda By The Yarra

When it comes to weddings, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach – each couple has their own unique vision for their big day. For some, it’s all about the party and making sure their guests have a great time. For others, it’s a more intimate affair focused on family and close friends. And then there are couples like Vivian and Mike, who wanted their wedding to be a true reflection of who they are as a couple – modern, fun-loving and with a strong emphasis on family. Vivian and Mike had contacted us the month the pandemic hit us in 2020. Like many of our couples this year, their wedding was a long time coming!

Theresa + Tony | Wedding at Manor on High

Theresa + Tony | Wedding at Manor on High

Two years of pandemic and several wedding reschedules later, Theresa and Tony were finally able to say “I do”. The day started with a traditional tea ceremony, followed by a heart-warming church ceremony at St John Baptist Church in Clifton Hill. Celebrations continued into the night with a reception at Manor on High in Epping. Thank you, Theresa and Tony, for trusting us to capture your love story.

Inno + Evelyn | Harbour Room St Kilda

Inno + Evelyn | Harbour Room St Kilda

In our first wedding back since last year’s hiatus, we were honoured to capture Inno and Evelyn’s sweet celebration. After months of postponement and reorganising their wedding, it finally went ahead, with a tear-filled ceremony at Newman College Chapel followed by a reception at Harbour Room in St Kilda amid stunning ocean views.

Sam + Mikes | Summer Wedding at Lawson Lodge Macedon

Sam + Mikes | Summer Wedding at Lawson Lodge Macedon

One thing we’ve learned from photographing at Lawson Lodge over the last 3 years is that this venue is totally photogenic whether it’s sunny, overcast, or pouring rain. Sam’s native bouquet and floral arbor by The Floral Forager added just the right touch of Australiana to complement the rustic surrounds, fitting seamlessly alongside the personal touches (a custom-made neon light, a vintage velvet lounge suite, a copper-framed welcome sign).

Kira + James | City Wedding at the Grand Hyatt Melbourne

Kira + James | City Wedding at the Grand Hyatt Melbourne

We knew at our first meeting with Kira and James that their wedding was going to be a sweet one. From the way they talk about their family and friends, to the way they calmly navigated their wedding day. Kira and James, thank you for trusting Folkstone to capture your story! It was a joy to be there.

Trelawney + Kaden | Sunny Kombi Wedding in Mornington

Trelawney + Kaden | Sunny Kombi Wedding in Mornington

Trelawney and Kaden’s wedding day was dripping in sunshine. Our first self-confessed “Tinderella” love story was picture-perfect, complete with a Kombi named George, tear-jerking vows, a (perfectly Melbourne) post-ceremony coffee cart, a delicious tower of cupcakes and icecream cake to top it all off.

Vanja + Geoff | Sutherland Estate Wedding

Vanja + Geoff | Sutherland Estate Wedding

Vanja and Geoff share a thriving business, a decade-long romance, and a beautiful home together. What a special day spent with their closest loved ones. Vanja tells the crowd, "Talk to anyone here, and we’re certain you’ll get along with each other and meet someone interesting”.

Vania + Marvin's Royal Botanic Gardens Wedding

Vania + Marvin's Royal Botanic Gardens Wedding

It rained all through the mid-Summer day, with just a tiny 15 minute window of sunlight before the reception. (Just enough time to sneak in some dreamy couple portraits.) Shout out to Mae Mae who stole the show by being absolutely delighted by the torrential downpour during the ceremony.

We loved capturing this special day. Thank you for having us, Vania and Marvin!
