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.

Wedding coverage from $4500

Most couples invest ~$5500

Super 8 & Wedding highlight films

For couples who love the idea of having movement from their wedding day, but don’t necessarily need a full videography team or long-form wedding film. Available in either Super8 or digital formats.

Captured alongside photography, these highlight films focus on atmosphere, movement, details and the little in-between moments that bring the day back to life.

They’re short, music-led, colour graded and delivered in a vertical, phone-friendly format — made to be watched, shared, saved, and come back to when you want to remember how it all felt.

From $1500

Do you travel for weddings?

Yes! I'll travel anywhere in Australia to capture your special day and absolutely love getting to shoot in different locations. I have a flat rate travel fee if extra travel is required.

How long until we receive our photos?

You’ll receive a sneak peek gallery within 24-48 hours of your wedding. Depending on your package, you'll receive the rest of your photos within 7. 14 or 28 days after your wedding.

How many photos will we receive?

Every wedding is unique, but most couples receive 500+ edited images for full-day coverage. Engagement sessions usually include 50–80 images. All photos are delivered in high resolution via an online gallery.

Do you offer digital files, prints, or albums?

Yes! Once you've received your curated online gallery it's easy to purchase prints and albums. You can either design them yourselves or I can do it for you.

We’re awkward in front of the camera. Can you help?

Absolutely. Most of my couples say this! I give natural direction that feels easy and comfortable, while also capturing candid moments as they unfold. I also love a bit of a laugh or a lame joke, so you’ll never feel stiff or overly posed.

Can I request specific poses or shots?

Of course! My job is to make sure your photos are exactly what you want, so the more information you can give me the better. I absolutely love a Pinterest board, we can even use this as inspiration during your portrait session. Or if you'd rather just let it flow we can do that too. Completely up to you

How do we book you?

Send an enquiry through my contact form with your date and details. I’ll confirm availability, send my pricing guide, and organise a quick chat to see if we’re the perfect fit. A signed contract and retainer secure your date.

What happens if the weather changes?

Weather can be unpredictable, but some of the best photos happen in moody skies or rain. In fact, one of my favourite weddings I've ever shot was in the pouring rain! The key is to not let the weather affect your mood, just have fun and the photos will be perfect. For engagement shoots, it is possible to reschedule.

wedding albums

Your wedding photos deserve more than a screen.

Fine art albums turn your favourite candid moments and portraits into a timeless keepsake you can hold, share and treasure for years to come.

Each album features premium materials, lay-flat pages and a classic, elegant design that showcases your day beautifully. Custom cover options, additional pages and parent albums are also available.
