Discovering the Margaret River Region

Margaret River region is a popular place to escape for the weekend. For those who know how large the state of Western Australia is, you’ll understanding that the 3 hour drop down south is a short trip! A weekend away in the region usually consist of good food and wine, and hiking or beaching. You really feel like you’ve left the hustle and bustle of the city behind.

We hopped into a car straight after work on Friday afternoon and made it into Margaret River town just in time for a quick dinner. After dinner we settled in for the night at a bed and breakfast 5 minutes away from the town centre.

Open House Perth 2017, Part III

After lunch at Satchmo, we continued on checking out some residentials. First up was the Triangle House in Mt Lawley.

Open House Perth 2017, Part II

We started day 2 of Open House with putting our names down for the Central Park rooftop tours, then slowly meandered our way to Northbridge for the tour of Alex Hotel.

I’m looking forward to a close friend’s wedding here in a week’s time!

Queena’s Hens, a beautiful indoor picnic & grazing table

I had the pleasure of joining a lovely bunch of girls for an afternoon of gourmet food and drinks to celebrate a dear friend’s upcoming wedding. The bridesmaids did an amazing job of setting up the indoor picnic area and organised a beautiful grazing table. It made taking photos that much easier! The afternoon was classy, relaxing and low key. It’s not often that I would get onto editing photos from a shoot so quickly, but I was excited to go through the photos and share the day with everyone who attended.
