Kirsty and Daniel are welcoming this little baby girl in less than a month and I cant wait to meet this little munchkin! I photographed this lovely couple (aka. my besties) at Trigg beach in Perth’s northern suburbs, choosing the beach because they love the ocean. I have know Kirsty since we were teens and beach trips were a regular occurrence, I cant wait to meet this little babe and introduce her to the sun and surf!
There are so many different wedding invitation styles and designers its a little hard to know where to start- am I right? Here’s a few from some recent brides that I loved-

Danielle shared “I’ve enjoyed carrying this sweet boy for the past nine months and will miss feeling him this close to me, but we are so ready to meet our little man. So, for now I will enjoy every little kick and move as we count down the days before his arrival as that can be any day now! I am in love with our maternity photos! Thank you @portraits.with.amelia for capturing this special time in our lives. These are photos we’ll cherish forever”
