Ocean View Estates Winery Henzell Chapel

The charming Henzell Chapel and the stunning Ocean View Estates Winery were the perfect combination that made Nikki and Jared’s day one to remember.

Every wedding is important to me, it’s a reminder of how lucky I am to be doing something that I truly enjoy. But there is something extra special when it is the wedding of someone who I know well and admire.

Nikki used to be my little girl’s favourite daycare teacher. A few months ago I spotted her at a wedding that I was photographing, little did I know I was photographing the wedding of her future brother in-law.

A few months down the road it was her turn to walk down the aisle, to my delight I was the wedding photographer capturing Nikki’s big day. A really special wedding I must say!

The day started at the beautiful Cabins at The View where bridal preparations took place.
Nikki’s choice of flowers were divine! Fresh spring blooms added that extra pop of colour that I always loveeeeeee to photograph. The bouquet was a creation of Aspley Florist.

The ceremony at Henzell Chapel was shared with closest friends and family. Some beautiful, touching moments were witnessed by all.

The reception was at the stunning Ocean View Estates Winery. This venue is a dream! Friendly staff, gorgeous grounds with many photographic opportunities and delicious food to die for are the reasons why I love to photograph at Ocean View Estates Winery.

Well enough said now, it’s time to leave you with a few images. But not before saying a massive thanks to Nikki and Jared for sharing your special day with me. It was a honour and a privilege to document your day and to see some familiar faces again. I wish you a life time of happiness!

Nikki’s dream team:

Accommodation – Cabins at the view
Hair – Facial Beauty
Flowers – Aspley Florist
Ceremony – Henzell Chapel
Reception – Ocean View Winery Estates

We couldn’t be any happier with our choice to have Adriana capture our family’s photographs!! On the day, Adriana met us at the most beautiful location & made all of us feel completely comfortable which was evident in our images. Completely natural & candid , we will definitely treasure our precious photographs forever & cannot recommend Adriana highly enough.

I cannot express how much of a joy it has been to work with Adriana, from our first meeting up until our wedding day, she has been nothing but helpful and understanding through the whole process. She is the type of photographer that makes something as intimidating as a photo shoot into a fun yet intimate experience, and time just flies when she's around! She even gives you sneak peaks before she blows you away with the final results! The moments she is able to capture is something to be admired. Her work is absolutely flawless, we just couldn't be happier with the results. The only sad thing is not getting to speak with her on a regular basis now our wedding is over - although we know if there is ever the occasion in the future, who we will be contacting to capture more precious moments in our lives. Thank you so much again for everything Adriana!

If you're looking for an incredible photographer with heart, look no further than Adriana Watson! Adriana has been absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish! We met Adriana in person and immediately knew she was the right person to capture our engagement and wedding photos. She has been so helpful along the way, with quick communication and great suggestions and advice. Our photos have come back quicker than expected which was a pleasant surprise! We are absolutely in love with our images and the way she's immortalised our special occasions, our photos are natural (not forced) and show the true essence of "us" and as a couple. She definitely made us feel so comfortable and relaxed! You won't be disappointed if you choose Adriana :) Erin & Wes Linn

In a sea of photographers, Adriana really stood out. Her art, professionalism and beautiful personality could not be beat. Adriana took the time to get to know us on a personal level before coming to our wedding and taking pictures. She made us feel comfortable and at ease. She wanted to capture the essence that is us and not just take pictures. For that we are forever grateful. Adriana was able to capture wonderful moments without being intrusive and provided us with tangible memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you so, so much Adriana, we could not have had a better photographer!

Adriana is a great Sunshine Coast Wedding Photographer. My husband and I are so happy to find her for our wedding photos. She helped us feel relaxed during the photo shoots on our wedding day. We shared the photos with our families and friends, they are amazed with the quality of the photos. Highly recommended!

We live in Melbourne and were planning on getting married at Maroochydore so we needed to find a Sunshine Coast wedding photographer. After looking at the work of several photographers on line we decided that Adriana Watson's work was the best for the type of wedding we planned- casual, friendly, full of fun for family and friends, and a lasting memento that would make us look good! We both hate having our picture taken and didn't want posed photos- Adriana was brilliant- getting natural smiles and laughs and catching lots of beautiful family moments. All of our wedding suppliers knew Adriana and commented on how lucky we were to have her photograph our wedding- we couldn't agree more. Jeni and Kerry

As part of the Rainbowloveau idea, Adriana photographed my wife, our son and I shortly before having our second child. She was incredibly friendly and has an amazing talent and ability to put people at ease when photographing them. The shots she got were phenomenal.. I would strongly recommend her as a photographer to anyone looking for photos on the sunshine coast.Thank you so much Adriana for taking the time to photo our family.

When I was looking for a photographer for my wedding in the Sunshine Coast, at Weddings at Tiffanys in Maleny, it was really important for me to find someone who could capture all of the moments that would evidently go by so quickly on the day so that when i could look back i would relive the day over again! Adriana achieved exactly that. She is such an incredible photographer and my Husband and I are beyond happy with our photos. Adriana is so lovely and she will make you feel at ease and comfortable as well. We couldn't have chosen anyone better :)

Adriana is just amazing! We loved the experience, we were a little anxious first, as we thought it could be a disaster having the family photos done with our crazy three kids. But Adriana made us feel so comfortable and capture all the very spontaneous moments, so we can treasure forever. Thank you Adriana x

Adriana photographed my daughters most precious day so far.. her Graduation. She took time to make sure my daughter was comfortable, happy and relaxed and she took her on a photo shoot at two locations. The photos are amazing. I love them so much and highly recommend Adriana for your special occasion. She is lovely.

An Absolute master of her trade!! For our wedding we were after a photographer who could capture the chilled vibe of our day and the true spirit of 'Us' as a couple, Someone to capture those moments no one sees and whom thinks outside the box with funky and creative shots. This Incredibly talented lady did not disappoint!! Even coming to the destination days early to scout out the best photo shoot locations. We had so many comments from our guests on how awesome our photographer was, "made everyone feel so relaxed and just had fun!!" Adriana's beautiful and cheeky personality will make you feel so at ease, even if your not a fan of being in front of the camera- like me!If you are after a passionate, artistic and soulful Sunshine Coast Wedding Photographer Adriana is the BEST hands down. We are beyond thrilled with the lasting images we have of the most Epic day!! Incredibly grateful!! xx

Sunshine Coast Wedding Photograper Adriana did an amaing job helping us memorizing our wedding day! As we were planning the wedding from Sweden we only had mail contact with Adriana from the start, from the first email she made us feel so excited about the day! Once meeting her at her studio we felt even more she was the right pick of photographer! Such a relaxed and outgoing person, who wanted nothing but us to have the perfect day. During the portrait and location photos she did an amizing job making us feel relaxed and natural. And during the ceremony we didn't even notice her - afterhand, while looking at the photos, we realized she had been all over the place!The photos turned out AMAZING and we are so happy with every single one of them. We could do nothing but reccomend Adriana for your special day - you won't be dissapointed!

When me and my now wife Cassi looked for a Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, we were recommended Adriana Watson by several friends. We really didn’t know what to expect but it soon became apparent that we made a very good decision. Right from the first day we met Adriana we were put at complete ease and made to feel extremely comfortable with her warm and welcoming nature, and obvious professionalism.We were totally blown away by the photographs that were taken both during our engagement shoot, and on the big day. We honestly couldn’t have dreamt for a better album than what she managed to capture; she really did catch the best moments of our day and has enabled us to cherish these incredible memories forever!Adriana has an incredible talent in this field. With her incredible photography skills combined with such a fantastic friendly personality, we couldn’t recommend her enough!

It was really important to us to use a local Sunshine Coast Wedding Photographer, not only to support small local business, but to make sure we had someone who knew the area and best spots for our shots. Adriana's photos speak for themselves. Her work is stunning, but it's all the little extras that meant we are truly grateful to have had her capture our wedding. She is a lovely person, who made us feel well looked after. It was clear that she had taken the time to get to know us as a couple and what was important to us, and she helped us establish our timeline for the day etc. Her turn around time for our photos was fabulous, well within the 6 weeks promised, and she gave us plenty of sneak peek photos in the meantime. We will definitely be giving her a call when we have our next big life event. Very, very happy couple!

No words can describe how much I highly recommend Adriana & her services - she is a one of a kind Sunshine Coast Wedding Photographer! Right from the beginning of the process, she puts you at ease and makes the day as fun and joyful as possible! Her talent is remarkable and I could not be happier with the results! Her photography is incredible, and she takes into account all your desires and opinions too. Would 110% book her again if I could, and encourage anyone looking for a photographer to have a chat to her, she will make your wedding day even more special!
