For the ones who want to feel it all
Beautiful wedding photos, without your day feeling like one long photoshoot.
This is for the couples who want relaxed, honest and nostalgic wedding photos that still feel like them.
The beautiful portraits, the real moments, the people you love, the feeling of the day, and everything in between.
The photos that you'll look back on in 20 years.
I’ll be back in Darwin for a small number of weddings in June and July 2027, with no travel fees for Darwin Weddings during those dates.
Hey, im shiv
I’m a wedding photographer who believes the best moments happen when you stop trying to be perfect and start being present.
I grew up in Victoria, spent years on the Sunshine Coast, and called Darwin home in 2026 after travelling through some of Australia’s most beautiful, rugged places.
Somewhere along the way, I realised the weddings I’m most drawn to are the ones that feel deeply personal and connected to nature— outdoors, on family properties, by the ocean, beside a river, under open skies, or somewhere that already means something to you.
From 2027, I’ll be based back in Victoria again, but we loved Darwin so much we're travelling up for the Dry Season. Plus this means we get to avoid another Victorian Winter.
This means no travel fees for June & July celebrations - how good!
Photos that let you stay in the moment

This might be for you if:
You want beautiful photos, but not at the cost of actually enjoying your day.
You’re more interested in the people, the place and the feeling than creating a perfect production.
You love the idea of relaxed direction, honest moments, a little nostalgia and portraits that feel natural rather than staged.

Testimonials
We can’t recommend Shiv enough! She captured our day perfectly and we couldn’t be more in love with the photos! She is such a lovely, easygoing person and felt like another guest in the best way possible.

Testimonials
Shiv shot our wedding at Kilcoy in early September. The lead up to the wedding was great. Shiv was in regular contact and easy to work with. On the day, Shiv blended in seamlessly and was fun to work with. She listed to what we wanted and made the day really enjoyable. Our photos were fantastic. We could not have been happier with Shiv’s project. She delivered 100's of edited photos within two weeks of the wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Shiv to anyone.

wedding day
It's finally here! On your wedding day, I’m there for it all — the nerves, the happy tears, the chaos, the hugs and the wild dance floor moments.
I work in a calm, confident way — keeping things running smoothly while making sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I’ll step in with clear, easy direction when it’s helpful and step back when the real moments unfold.
From emotional vows to wild dance floor energy, I’m there to document it all without it ever feeling forced.

I deliver sneak peeks to you within 24-48 hours of your wedding day so you can relive the most important moments all over again (and do the obligatory Instagram post of course!)

From there, you’ll have the option to order handcrafted wedding albums and professional-quality prints — so your favourite memories don’t just live on a screen, but in your hands and on your walls.
