About
Overview & Vibe
A Newcastle wedding photography and film studio covering Newcastle, the Hunter Valley and the Central Coast, run by a two-person team who shoot photo and video together.
Style & Approach
Authentic and natural, aimed at the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments rather than a directed run of set pieces — and openly informal about the support offered in the lead-up.
Ideal For
Couples who want photography and film from one team without coordinating two suppliers, and who like knowing every cost up front.
The Need-to-Knows
- Photography from $2,950; film from $3,900; combined from $6,950.
- Sneak-peek photographs land within forty-eight hours of the wedding.
- Travel is free within an hour of Newcastle, then $55 an hour.
- Every add-on is individually priced, from albums to a second shooter.
Standout Feature
An unusually complete published price list — albums, second shooter, extra hours, raw files, ceremony and speech recordings and travel are all costed, so a couple can build the total themselves.
Albums & Prints
- Fine Art Wedding Album — From $1,800. A handmade forty-page album.
Appointment Policy
- Check the date through the website, then a pre-wedding chat is included with the booking.
