“We looked at your page and loved the style that Mark Jay pictures tell a story and look authentic and not staged.”

When Robert + Jessica locked eyes across a crowded nightclub, they didn’t know their chance meeting would years later lead to the most unforgettable day of their lives.

Robert + Jessica went on their first overseas holiday to Queenstown, New Zealand to relax and spend quality time with one another. The couple had booked the Onsen hot pools and spa retreat whilst on their stay. “At the spa we were taking photos and he tried setting up the stand on the tripod to take a full body picture.. little did I know he was doing this to record the proposal”.

In the lead up to the day, Jessica said, “I am looking forward to going to the church and walking down the aisle and making eye contact with Robby”. This moment was definitely a highlight for the both of them, with Robby moved to tears. They said their vows in front of their friends and family at St Nikola Tavelic Croatian Catholic Church in St Johns Park.

Following the beautiful ceremony, we headed to the picturesque grounds of Parramatta Park for the bridal portraits. Surrounded by lush greenery, historic landmarks, and soft, natural light, the park provided the perfect backdrop to capture our couple’s love and joy. 

R0bert + Jessica said in the lead up to the big day that they were both excited to celebrate their love with all of their nearest and dearest and this was evident at their wedding reception at Novella on the Park – they did not leave the dance floor and better yet, insisted Mark join in!

Jessica kindly says:

“If your photographer doesn’t dance with you then you’ve hired the wrong photographer! You and your team are amazing! Robby and I are incredibly lucky to have you and your team a part of our special day! Thank you got all your efforts and making us feel super comfortable. You made the day run smoothly and we are very excited to see the photos. Last night was spectacular and you really are the best!”
