Teagan & Aidan’s Playful Pre-Wedding Session at Merv Ewart Reserve, Petrie

19 May 2019 · Merv Ewart Reserve, Petrie

Merv Ewart Reserve in Petrie, tucked beside the Old Town, set the scene for Teagan & Aidan’s pre-wedding session. With open lawns, a winding creek and plenty of leafy green, it was just the spot for a relaxed afternoon,and their much-loved dog was right at the heart of it all.

The session was all about play. Teagan & Aidan explored the rocks by the water, shared a laugh under the trees and made the most of the golden sunlight. Their dog kept things lively, darting through the grass and taking the lead on adventures. Whether they were kneeling on the grass or perched on a rock, the three of them looked right at home together.

You can tell that these two don’t take themselves too seriously. With every glance and grin, there’s an ease between them that says a lot about how they connect. Including their dog in the session was a natural choice,it’s clear that family, fun and being outdoors matter to them.

A pre-wedding session like this is a great way to settle into the idea of being photographed, especially in a spot that feels familiar. By the time the wedding day rolls around, being in front of the camera won’t feel quite so new. For Teagan & Aidan, it was all about having a good time together,and that’s exactly what these photos show.
