Estelle and Freddie captured a moment to remember before the Matric Farewell at St John’s College.

It's not just the matriculants that steal the show...Estelle Emslie, Art Director at St John's, looked absolutely radiant in her flowing ball gown, exuding grace and confidence, while Freddie cut a dashing figure in his tailored suit.

Against the Gatsby’s romantic backdrop — with its vintage charm and golden evening light — the two shone with youthful excitement and sophistication. It was a picture-perfect prelude to a milestone night.
