Wow- what a beautiful couple!

Yesterday, Lydia Van Der Plaat and I had the priviledge of photographing the wedding of Beth Prosser and Chris Toynton. It was an amazing day, and you guys looked amazing!

A pretty nice view of Sydney Harbour, yes? I’m blown away by the panos taken on the DJI Osmo Pocket.
