Rogue Weddings
About
Overview & Vibe
Rogue Weddings is a Newcastle wedding photographer who shoots digital alongside 35mm analogue film. She describes her couples as edgy romantics and is openly uninterested in the perfectly lined-up bridal party, aiming instead for pictures that could not belong to anyone else’s wedding.
Style & Approach
Documentary and candid, with a taste for unusual light and ideas that shouldn’t work but do. She works to get things right in camera so there is as little editing as possible afterwards, and the film frames carry a softer, grainier look alongside the digital gallery.
Ideal For
Couples marrying around Newcastle, the Hunter Valley and as far as three hours out, who want something other than a standard wedding album of photographs, and who like the idea of a few frames shot on real film. It suits eloping couples too — there is a separate, lower entry price for them.
The Need-to-Knows
Wedding packages start from $4,500 and elopements from $1,800. A 20% booking fee secures your date, with the balance due no later than a month before the wedding. Travel within three hours of Newcastle is included at no charge, and a pre-wedding couples session comes with every package at no extra cost.
Standout Feature
The delivery is quick at both ends: highlight images land within 48 hours so you have something to post immediately, and the full gallery follows within nine weeks. Albums are priced separately from $800 for the smaller size, though her largest package already includes one.
Albums & Prints
- Wedding Album, 12x12 — $1,300. A lay-flat album of 20 pages, professionally designed, with extra pages available for a fee.
- Smaller Album, 8x8 — $800. The same album in a more compact size, also offered as a companion copy to the full-size one.
Appointment Policy
- Enquire through the online form and she aims to reply within 48 hours.
- A 20% booking fee and a signed contract secure your date, and booking is done online.
- The balance is due no later than one month before the wedding.

Price Notes
- Wedding packages start at $4,500 while elopements start at $1,800 — the lower figure is the elopement entry point, not a full-day price.
- She states her pricing is complete and that the packages include what you would want, so extras are optional rather than expected.
- Albums are priced separately at $800 for the 8x8 and $1,300 for the 12x12, though her largest package already includes one.
- Travel within three hours of Newcastle is included; a couples session more than an hour away attracts a fee unless she is already working in the area.

Travel & Destination
- Travel within three hours of Newcastle is included at no charge, and there is no fee at all if she is already working in the area. Couples sessions more than an hour out are the exception and do attract a fee.

- Highlight images within 48 hours, and the full gallery within nine weeks — she also puts it as about two months, depending on the time of year. An album takes roughly four more weeks once you have chosen the photographs.
