Lisa & Maria's Pre-Wedding Session at Hillstone St Lucia

Hillstone St Lucia sits right in the heart of Brisbane, with gardens and lawns that seem made for wandering. Lisa & Maria brought their little dog along for their pre-wedding session, making the most of the venue where they’d soon be celebrating their big day. With the sun slipping through the trees and the fairy lights twinkling at dusk, the place felt both relaxed and full of promise.

The session was all about exploring and testing out spots for their wedding. We wandered from the lawns to the gardens, stopping at benches and bridges, letting the girls and their pup simply enjoy the space. Maria was a bit rough with posing at first, but she was ready to listen and adapt, making sure Lisa would be happy with their photos. There was a gentle give-and-take between them, and it was clear they were both willing to do whatever it took for each other.

Lisa & Maria are the type who bring warmth with them, and their puppy added a playful spark to the day. Whether they were laughing together, sharing quiet moments, or just walking hand in hand with their dog, you could see how much they cared for each other. Their willingness to try new things and learn from the session really set the tone.

A pre-wedding shoot like this is more than just a warm-up for the camera,it’s a chance to slow down and get comfortable before the big day. By the end, Lisa & Maria knew the best spots at Hillstone St Lucia, and they’d had a chance to focus on each other away from the wedding day rush.

With their wedding later featured in a magazine, it’s safe to say all that preparation paid off. We’re looking forward to seeing what’s next for these two.
