Katelyn and Sam’s Shambala Estate Wedding ~
What an honour to be Katelyn and Sam’s Shambala Estate Tamborine Wedding Photographer and capture the celebration of their 11 year journey together!
This day was full of so many memorable moments – from Sam losing it at the aisle, to their fur babies photobomb! Katelyn was simply breathtaking and we were so happy she chose industry legends, Blush’d Brides for her hair and make-up following our recommendation.
The gorgeous venue where the wedding was held, Shambala Estate is a favourite here, the lavender and fountain just bring that elegant touch. Katelyn and Sam had half their Wedding portraits here, before heading to the Tamborine Mountain lookout for the most *stunning* sunset 💖 The best of both worlds!
Congratulations Katelyn and Sam, we wish you all the happiness!

“Sam, from the moment we met, I knew it was you, always and forever. You have shown me what true love is, and have always made me feel so special. I truly appreciate you. My first promise, is that I will stand by you through thick and thin. No matter what life brings, I will be your biggest support. I cannot wait to celebrate all the special moments, to create more memories together and to share in our wins. My second promise to you is that you will always have my full attention, my unwavering loyalty and unconditional love. I will support your dreams and ambitions, encourage you when times are tough, and be always be your partner in crime, and in you life. I will always encourage you to dream big and walk with you every step of the way. I vow to always laugh with you, also sometimes at you. Sam, you light up my life with your silly sense of humour and bubbly personality, you bring so much joy to my heart and make me smile like no one else. So I promise to be patent, to listen, and to always be open and honest with you. Together, you, me, honey and Bella, will build a life full of adventure and happiness. I am so grateful for you and cannot wait for what the future holds. Sam, you have my hand, my heart, and my forever. My last promise to you today is that I will always love you. I loved you then, I love you now and I will love you for the rest of my life”
“Katelyn Louise Lockyer somehow I have known I would be with you for the rest of my days since the first day we met. I pictured it happening before my eyes just before we truly talked. And yes we met at a young age but I have never fallen in love with someone’s personality, beauty and spice that you bring to my life every day. We are the best of friends but fill each others hearts with the obsessive need for each other which I ABSOLUTELY can not live without. I vow to be that person that fills your heart with every ounce of love and loyalty I have every day. I vow to show you I am the man you have grown with to depend on and share all your worries and needs with. I vow to make our future together filled with excitement for the next steps we take together. I vow to be by your side in sickness and in health as we grow older together. Because there is no other person in this world I would be excited enough to do this with but you. I vow to do the same as you do for me every day. Katelyn you are my calming sea after a rocky hard day, you guide me to be the best of my self and you 100% believe in me even when I do not. You also deal with all my annoying, crazy, sarcastic quirks and you keep me level headed when needed. Katelyn You are my safe place. you. are. my. home. Lastly Katelyn you are the light in my darkness. Just like MY yin you are my yang, or simply we are the unity of opposites. But nevertheless we are so much alike it’s scary to see. Katelyn we are a one in a billion kind of connection that hardly ever happens. Katelyn Louise Lockyer I am never letting you go. I love you.“
