Six years ago, I made a bet with my oldest brother that our little brother, Scotty, and his then-girlfriend, Holly, would go the distance. These two kids are childhood sweethearts, and although there’s been a little bit of debate around exactly when they became friends, they’ve known each other since they were 9-years old.

In two weeks, these two rad people (Jane & Danny!) will be newly married, and to celebrate, I thought I’d share their gorgeous engagement mini session down by the beach (and maybe also because wouldn’t it be nice if it was summer again!).

One roll of 36-exposure film, however long it takes us to get through it, and some character-filled photos of your beautiful self/selves (or your business or your product or your animal friend or whatever else you can possibly dream of!).

A few photos of Gemma & Ben by the Mindarie Marina, for no other reason than to remember these moments together.
