Choosing a wedding venue is the first chapter in your forever story, and few places offer a backdrop as spectacular and intimate as an island escape. As a Yeppoon Wedding Photographer, I had the privileged to photograph Brent and Tysha’s beautiful wedding at the Great Keppel Island Hideaway. The azure water and white sand became the canvas for a love story.
When Tysha first chatted to me about her wedding, I knew I was going to love every moment spent with the couple on their wedding day. Brent and Tysha were super laid back which makes for great photos! Their ceremony was beautiful (both heartfelt and to look at!). They wanted a ceremony that glorified God and was simple, casual, yet elegant.
I got to know Brent and Tysha during their engagement session. I was able to get them comfortable and ready for the big day plus it’s a great opportunity to break the ice and become friends with the person who will capture your biggest day of you life!
Why Great Keppel Island Hideaway is the Ultimate Destination Venue
When a couple selects an island location like this, they’re choosing an experience that extends beyond the single day. They are inviting their guests to press pause on everyday life and immerse themselves in a tropical holiday. The Great Keppel Island Hideaway offers the perfect balance of untouched natural beauty and relaxed, functional facilities, making logistics effortless while maintaining an atmosphere of secluded romance.

Barefoot Wedding Vows on the Beach
The ceremony location for Tysha and Brent was simply breathtaking. The couple exchanged vows right on the pristine sand, with the gentle waves of the Coral Sea providing the only music. The simplicity of the setting. No elaborate décor needed when Mother Nature provides such vibrant colors. It meant the focus remained entirely on their love and commitment. As a photographer, capturing that genuine, raw emotion against such a stunning backdrop is an amazing experience!
Capturing the Vibe of A Great Keppel Island Hideaway Celebration
The photography opportunities here are unparalleled. After the ceremony, the entire island becomes your backdrop, offering a diverse range of scenery, from lush greenery to secluded coves. This means every photograph is imbued with the unique, adventurous spirit of the location.
