About

Overview & Vibe

A Newcastle wedding and elopement photographer working across the Hunter Valley and well beyond it, with a voice that is cheerfully informal and entirely his own. The promise is no cringe poses and no say-cheese smiles: couples are photographed doing what they would be doing anyway, whether that is a full day with everyone they know or an hour and a half on a mountainside.

Style & Approach

He has a declared soft spot for film photography, and edits his digital work to emulate it — his words are that film carries an immeasurable, perfectly imperfect quality a digital camera cannot quite replicate. Actual film coverage is offered as an add-on alongside the digital package rather than instead of it, so a couple can have both looks from the same day.

Ideal For

Couples who want an adventure rather than a schedule, and who would rather be led by someone relaxed than choreographed by someone formal. Elopements are a first-class line here, not an afterthought — coverage starts at an hour and a half and runs as long as the day does — and he travels: a European season ran in 2025 and another is planned for 2027.

The Need-to-Knows

Packages are described as fully customisable, with the average wedding investment given as $4,800 and the average elopement as $1,100 — averages rather than floors, so the figure a given couple pays will vary. Galleries arrive within four to six weeks, with seven-day delivery available as an add-on, alongside an engagement shoot, film coverage, a second shooter, extra hourly coverage, an heirloom album and fine art prints.

Standout Feature

Unlimited pre-wedding meetings, and a published argument for why couples should meet a photographer in person before signing anything. He treats the lead-up as part of the service rather than admin — eighteen months of cloud storage, a comprehensive wedding guide and print shop access all sit inside the standard package.

Albums & Prints

  • Heirloom wedding album — price on request. Offered as an add-on to the standard package rather than as a priced product.
  • Fine art prints — price on request. Offered as an add-on alongside the album.

Appointment Policy

  • Unlimited pre-wedding meetings are included in the package.
  • He encourages couples to meet their photographer in person before booking, rather than committing on a website alone.
  • Enquiries are made by email or a call.

Areas Serviced

  • Newcastle - his own stated base.
  • Hunter Valley - named in his own service-page headings as a region he photographs weddings and elopements in.
  • New South Wales and beyond - travel is offered without a published surcharge.
  • Europe - a European season ran in 2025 and another is planned for 2027.
