FAQs
What is your photography style?
Your wedding day is photographed naturally and unobtrusively, just as it unfolds. The focus is on real emotion, connection, and the quiet in-between moments that tell your story. Instead of setting up staged shots, I quietly observe and photograph as the day flows, stepping in only when guidance is genuinely helpful, such as during a short relaxed portrait session or family photos.
When will we receive our wedding photos?
Your full gallery will be delivered within 2–6 weeks of your wedding day, with a handful of preview images shared within the first few days so you have something special to enjoy and share right away.
How do we book you?
Do you still take family and couple portraits?
Yes. While most of the day is documentary in style, I do include a relaxed couples portrait session, I love to document your connection as a couple away from the hustle and bustle of your wedding. I also include group shots for whoever you require. This will be discussed in our consultations and leading up to the wedding day.
Just get in touch by email or phone with any questions. Once we've confirmed your date is available and you're feeling happy to proceed we'll arrange a face to face meeting to discuss your requirements and to see how we'll work together. If you'd like to book a 30% deposit secures your booking and the balance is due when your images are ready for delivery. I only accept one wedding booking per month, so early bookings are highly recommended.
Do you work with a second photographer?
Where do you photograph weddings?
I cover Greater Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula. I’m also available for regional Victorian, interstate and overseas weddings. Travel and overnight fees may apply.
How much coverage do we need?
That depends on your plans for the day. Short and sweet celebrations might need 2-3 hours; most intimate weddings fit comfortably into 3–5 hours. Full-day coverage for getting ready through to dancing usually sits between 6–9+ hours.
Pricing:
1–2 hours $650/hr 3–5 hours $600/hr 6–8 hours $550/hr 9+ hours $500/hr
How many photos will we receive?
You’ll receive around 80 fully edited images per hour of coverage, presented in a private online gallery. Every photo is carefully edited in my signature natural style, no heavy filters, no over-editing, just a beautiful edit, reflective to the aesthetics of your day.
I generally photograph solo, but a second photographer can be added if your schedule or guest list would benefit from additional coverage. This is quoted upon request. For long weddings, I will bring in my highly experienced photographer to cover the last few hours. This will be discussed before you book and ensures fresh eyes and optimum photography throughout your day.
What if we’re awkward in front of the camera?
I would say that all of my couples feel this way to some extent. My approach is gentle and relaxed, no rigid posing. My relaxed friendly demeanour will ensure that you’re feeling relaxed and happy in my presence and infant of my camera.
What happens if you’re unwell or there’s an emergency?
In the unlikely event that I am unable to attend due to illness or emergency, I have a trusted professional photographer network I can call upon. You’ll never be left without coverage.
Do you photograph same-sex or non-traditional weddings?
Of course. I’m absolutely honoured to be a part of capturing your celebration of love, however that looks for you.
What if it rains on our wedding day?
Rainy days can be incredibly beautiful. I’ll help you find gorgeous light and natural spaces for photos no matter the weather. Having a few clear or indoor options ready always helps, but rain often creates some of the most memorable, heartfelt images.
