An afternoon beach engagement session in Port Macquarie on the NSW Mid-North Coast.

Couples photoshoots are the perfect opportunity to slow down and spend time with your lover, creating lasting memories of moments built on love, connection and the goodness of relationships.

On a beautiful warm winter afternoon late in August, these two braved the ocean winds and let me in on the adventure to create some memories, capture some photos and document their love. We headed out to Milk Beach, a small beach – one of Sydney’s hidden gems! – in Vaucluse along the Hermitage Foreshore Walk. We found a little cove slightly away from the main beach – a perfect spot away from the crowds to relax and have some fun!

Where to begin with these two? Sarah’s the kind of gal who can always put a smile on your face. Whether it’s because she’s smiling and lighting up the room or through her kindness, thoughtfulness and dedication to serving others – she does all this with an air of ease whilst being the most organised person I have ever met. Way back in 2017 she made a decision to try something new and move away from Sydney for her medical term in rural NSW, the town of Wagga Wagga. Flash forward, these two lovebirds met and the rest is history!

These photos hold a very special place in my heart. Not only were these two the very first couple I photographed, but they are two of my dearest friends and it was such a blessing to get to capture the joy and closeness that epitomises their relationship!
