Tina and Bobby came all the way from Las Vegas to be married on a sand cay on the World heritage listed Great Barrier Reef. The weather for this once in a life time day was perfect, with a slight breeze and clear skies.
Skysafari Helicopters pilot Jacinta transferred Bobby, Vivian Reid, the celebrant and Colin from MOD Videos, to Undine Cay in one of their bright yellow R44 choppers to await the arrival of Tina.
Tina, Angie from Dynamic Weddings and I were flown to the Cay by Bradley, in another yellow chopper to rendezvous with the others.
Vivian performed a lovely ceremony which included Tina and Bobby reading really romantic vows to each that that they had written themselves.
After the ceremony I took some photos of Bobby and Tina enjoying this stunning location. In the meantime, Bradley and Jacinta set up a delicious lunch on picnic blankets under some brightly coloured umbrellas.
All too soon it was time to leave. Jacinta returned to Port Douglas with Colin, Vivian and Angie on board. Bradley flew Tina, Bobby and myself back to the coast for a taste of the outback. We flew directly west to the coast, past Cow Bay and up over the Daintree River, spotting crocodiles along the way.
Bradley skillfully landed the chopper on a big granite rock next to a fast flowing, clear water river surrounded by tall eucalyptus and paper bark trees.
Another photo shoot on the rocks and surrounding area then it was time to head back to base where I left Tina and Bobby to be delivered to a Port Douglas restaurant for their wedding dinner.
Thank you to Tina and Bobby for asking me to share in your special day. I really enjoyed capturing every moment of it. I’m sure you will have a long and happy future together.
Below are some of my favorite images from the day. Actually, there are lots of favorites but I had to choose just a few! You can view more images at their on-line album and MOD video have kindly sent me a link to the Highlights from the day video…check it out, it’s very cool!
A stunning location!
