We love that these wedding photos are all about simplicity and an intimate affair.

Maxine and Shaun held their FIRST wedding in gorgeous Chambers Island, Maroochydore, Queensland. Their photographer was Julian Beattie from Kariz-Matik Photography, who magically captured their wedding.

Maxine and Shaun are having two weddings, one in Australia with their parents and close friends and then one in Canada with their Canadian friends.

Maxine getting ready, with the help of her Mother. She did her own make-up and shows that professional bridal make-up is certainly not compulsory. She looked absolutely breathtaking.

Maxine’s attitude on the day, was all about being happy regardless of any hiccups. She specifically commented to photographer Julian that she “didn’t care what happened – if it rained, if someone didn’t turn up, whatever. So long as she ended up married she would be happy.”

Congratulations Maxine and Shaun and good luck with the second wedding.
