Mark & Melissa

On Saturday I had a wonderful time taking Mark & Melissa's engagement photos.  Mark & Melissa were having a party to celebrate the announcement later that afternoon but we managed to sneak away from all the preparations to take a few photos.  The venue was Mark's parents property at Minden and there were some wonderful locations to choose from.

First we started with the old shed which was a wonderful backdrop -

Then we moved to the two large rubber trees that had obviously been there for a long time and were just perfect for a twosome...

Next we moved to take in the excellent views of the Minden range that can be seen from the property

Wallace has been part of Mark & Melissa's life for most of their time together so of course he had to be included and obliged by giving one of his best smiles [Wallace has his own Facebook page, you can find him on Wallace Feedmetwotimes]

 and finally we moved on to a special place for Mark & Melissa - the hill in the background of these photos is were Mark proposed and Melissa said "yes"  These photos were taken with my wonderful 100-400L series Canon lens.

I loved taking these photos of you both Mark & Melissa and can't wait to do the wedding next year!
