Kat & Thomas

Sonja C Photography knows what I mean when I say I love barefoot walks by the beach, and for today’s relaxed engagement by Sydney Harbour, she captured all of those weekend vibes through her beautiful photography.

Kat and Thomas wanted a vibe for their shoot that reflected their own relaxed style. With a wedding planned in San Francisco, Sydney Harbour and its iconic landmarks as their backdrop, a nod to their love of the sparkling city, one of this travelling couple’s many homes.

The groom, chose a sentimental place for the proposal, Kat explaining “Thomas proposed in the same place that my  parents were married at, a hotel resort in the Napa Valley called Auberge du Soleil.”

Kat and Thomas tell the tale of how they met. “We met nearly 10 years ago on an aeroplane! We casually struck up a conversation with each other, exchanged names, and haven’t stopped talking since. It started off as a long-distance, trans-continental relationship with bursts of togetherness across the world (first in London, then in San Francisco, and finally Sydney).”

Thomas says of his future wife “I love how caring and kind Katherine is and how she always looks out for me.”

On what she loves about her husband to be, Kat tells “I love how ambitious and driven Thomas is. He won’t let anyone tell him he can’t do something. And he always wants what’s best for the people he cares about.”
