IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

I have ever since I started photography - back when I shot weddings with minimal gear, and even less experience.

These days my gear bag is full, maybe more than it needs to be. And I've been so lucky to be a part of just about every type of wedding day - from courthouse ceremonies, to waterfront receptions. And I love them just as much as when I started.

I will still be the one crying during your vows, offering to pick up your train, and encouraging your guests to get on the dancefloor at the end of the night.

But as beautiful as weddings are, I also understand that wedding planning can be stressful. And what your after are vendors who will keep the stress low, and leave you to enjoy your day.
So that's what I'm here to do!

a bit soppy, but true.

i love weddings

AND BASICALLY

Shooting style -

I used a hybrid approach to capturing your day. There are moments where I will be a fly on the wall, using a more documentary style to capture moments as they happen. But when needed Ill jump in to make sure you are in the best possible light, are facing the camera, and looking your best. If I'm posing you, then know that ill give you guidance to feel comfortable and look your best - because who really feels comfortable in front of a camera?

Organized, but flexible -

Family photo list? In my pocket. Timeline? On my phone.
I turn up to your day with all the information I need, so I can capture it without asking you a million and one questions. Ill try to keep us on time, and where we need to be.
But I also understand that its your day, and I want you to enjoy it. If you decide you don't want to leave for photos, that's totally fine. Again - your day!

Fun loving - down to earth -

I will tell bad jokes (that's what she said) and pull some bad dance moves. Ill hand my camera to your drunk cousin so they can take a photo of me - because they REALLY want to. I get to know your families, and enjoy the day as much as you do. Ill do my job, don't you worry. But I'm not a robot, and wont pretend to be.

All about you -

I make my plan for the day around you, and what you care about. Ill take the shots you want, in the places that have meaning to you. I say again this is YOUR day, and I'm just along for the ride.

Did i mention its your day? Yeah I think you got that!

things you should know

I have a handful of packages that fit 95% of days.
My packages fall into two categories - 'traditional' full day coverage, and micro-wedding packages.
I believe every size of celebration deserves coverage, so if you need 2 or 10 hours I should have you covered.
Micro wedding packages start at $1,300.

Full package details are in my price guide - available here

First step - have a look at my Wedding pricing guide HERE
I offer both Micro wedding, and 'traditional' wedding day coverage - so no matter what your day looks like I have you covered!

Once you've gone over the price guide, and are ready to chat, work out some logistics, and see if we are a fit you just pop an enquiry through on the form.

You'll get an email back right away to confirm I've heard from you (if you don't see this, check your spam, and then double check you typed your email correctly)
Then Ill come back you within 24 hours, and we take it from there.
Normally the next step is finding a time to either grab a coffee (or wine), or jump on zoom to talk, and make sure we get along.

SO - HOW DOES IT ALL WORK?

EASY RIGHT?

After that we get you booked in, and you get to sit tight until your wedding! (Or engagement session. Because those happen too).
