This was not our first wedding here in Illawarra Rhododendron Gardens but we still took a few minutes before the start to have a look around the gardens.
Gardens are managed by volunteers and it was really nice to meet a group of them and see their involvement in helping recommend the best spots for wedding photography. All I want to say is that the people we met here really cared about our experience and it felt special and rare.
It was a rainy Saturday, but the weather miraculously showed a nice face during the ceremony & bridal shoot. We as photographers don’t mind photographing in the rain and capturing some romantic under the umbrella photos however wedding couples usually pray for the wedding without rain. And on this occasion, somebody did listen to those prayers.
There are not only rhododendrons creating a natural background for photographs but also azaleas or camellias and other plants and trees. Of course, it all depends on the time of the year you are here.
