About

Overview & Vibe

Eliza has been photographing weddings from Wollongong since 2010, across the Illawarra, the South Coast and the Southern Highlands. She works as a documentary photographer in the strict sense: she follows the day rather than staging it, and the gallery is what actually happened. Coverage runs from a two-hour elopement to eight hours.

Style & Approach

Natural, candid and timeless, with no stiff poses and no manufactured moments. She shoots digital and offers 35mm film as an add-on, which suits the Highlands light and the Illawarra coast particularly well. Fifteen years in these three regions means she knows where the afternoon light falls at Kiama and where the quiet portrait spots are along the escarpment.

Ideal For

Couples marrying between the escarpment and the sea, or up on the Highlands plateau, who want the quiet in-betweens rather than a set of poses. Her regular venues include Bendooley Estate, Montrose House, Mali Brae Farm, Fitzroy Inn, Ravensthorpe, Greyleigh at Kiama, The Lodge at Jamberoo, The Merribee and Terrara House.

The Need-to-Knows

Six hours seven and eight with an average spend. Elopements and small weddings for two hours, with two to four hours available and extra hours. A roll of 35mm film roughly twenty-four images. Fine art albums. She does not charge travel to the Southern Highlands, and she takes a limited number of weddings a year. The detailed inclusions come by email rather than being listed, so ask for them when you enquire.

Standout Feature

Three regions, properly. Most photographers claim a radius; she has written a page each on the Illawarra and the Southern Highlands naming the venues she shoots and the way the light works in both, and she charges the same either way.
