JP Creative Photo and Film

About

Overview & Vibe

JP Creative Photo and Film is Jordy, a Hunter Valley wedding photographer and videographer who has photographed more than 300 couples. Her working line is don’t shoot what it looks like, shoot what it feels like, and the portfolio bears it out — confetti exits, champagne towers, dance floors at midnight, and a clifftop elopement in t-shirts with the dogs along.

Style & Approach

She describes her priority as capturing personalities and the unique ways people connect in the most candid way possible, whether that is two partners in their element or kids causing a ruckus in the background. The experience is personal and completely relaxed by her own account, and she builds a friendship with each couple before the wedding so she knows what matters to them on the day. Every image is delivered in both colour and black and white.

Ideal For

Couples marrying across the Hunter Valley, Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, the Central Coast and Sydney who want photography and film from one supplier without bundling being forced on them — photo only, video only and a combined collection are all separately priced. The one-hour elopement package suits couples who want the record without the production; the eleven-hour package covers preparation through to the dance floor.

The Need-to-Knows

Photography-only packages run $900 for a one-hour elopement, $3,700 for six hours, $4,300 for nine and $4,800 for eleven, with roughly 700 to 1,200 images depending on coverage. A combined Photo and Film Collection is $8,500. Every photography package includes five images edited on the night of the wedding, more than fifty sneak peeks within 72 hours, and the full gallery in colour and black and white within 10 to 14 weeks. A $1,200 non-refundable deposit secures the date and comes off the final balance, which is due no later than six weeks before the wedding.

Standout Feature

Five finished images arrive on the wedding night itself — usually during the main course — and more than fifty sneak peeks land within 72 hours, before most couples have left for their honeymoon.
