About

Overview & Vibe

Peter Bush works from Coffs Harbour, and his wedding pictures are of that stretch of the Mid North Coast: couples barefoot on the red-rock headlands, a ceremony on a clifftop above the surf, portraits walking the long shaded rows of a macadamia orchard, and river flats with the ranges standing behind them. He shoots big church weddings and quiet two-person elopements with the same easy attention, and clear plastic umbrellas turn up often enough to suggest he is unbothered by coastal rain.

Style & Approach

He describes his style as natural and relaxed, capturing candid moments with beautiful lighting, and says timeless photography comes from a relaxed and natural experience. In practice that means an unposed approach and a photographer who makes a point of getting to know his couples before the day, which the couples themselves pick up on: one describes being helped with the timeline, having the location looked over beforehand, and feeling comfortable in front of the camera.

Ideal For

Couples marrying around Coffs Harbour and along the North Coast who want full-day coverage from the morning preparations through to the late-night celebrations, and equally for two people eloping somewhere quiet. He is openly keen on remote and adventurous locations, and an engagement session can be added to a wedding booking or comes included with some of them. Couples who like knowing the practical side is handled will find a photographer who writes at length about ceremony timing, getting-ready rooms and family group shots.

The Need-to-Knows

Coverage runs from six hours up to twelve. Every package carries pre-wedding consultations, edited high-resolution images and a USB of all the final files in both colour and black and white, and he commits to a minimum of fifty edited images for every hour he is there. Full galleries are typically ready in six to fourteen weeks. A signed contract and a twenty per cent non-refundable booking fee secure the date, with the balance due four weeks beforehand. Prices are quoted on enquiry rather than published, and travel fees may apply for distant locations.

Standout Feature

The fifty-images-per-hour commitment, which is an unusually concrete promise in a field that mostly speaks in ranges. On a ten-hour day that is a floor of five hundred edited photographs, delivered in colour and black and white on a USB you keep.
