Wedding Photographers · Snowy Mountains / Jindabyne, New South Wales
Mandy Lamont came to the Snowy Mountains the long way round: she lost her job in Melbourne in the GFC, took a winter season at Thredbo shooting on the mountain, and stayed. She now works out of Jindabyne, and her wedding portfolio is the deepest in the region — fifty couples published by name, from 2013 through to a Jindabyne ceremony in May 2023, at Thredbo Alpine Resort, Perisher, Lake Crackenback and Dead Horse Gap.
She writes about the weddings themselves rather than about her photography, and what the galleries show is a photographer at ease in the cold and comfortable with a small guest list: vows in snow with a celebrant and six people, portraits up the chairlift, a bride on a snowmobile in her gown. Her other work is ski, snowboard and mountain bike action, which is the same skill applied to a faster subject.
Couples marrying in the alpine country who want someone who lives there. Winter and shoulder-season weddings are her home ground, and several of the published days are small — a handful of family members on a ridge in the snow — alongside full resort weddings with a reception to follow.
Enquiries go directly to her, by phone on 0408 360 466 or by email. She works across the Snowy Mountains from Jindabyne, and the published weddings cluster around Thredbo, Perisher and Lake Crackenback, all within about half an hour of home.
The snow is not a backdrop she borrows for one shot a year. Ebonie and Adam married at Perisher in June, Amy and Shane at Thredbo in June, Ghilaine and Jackson in early season snow, Amanda and Jamie at Dead Horse Gap in July — and one couple signed a snowboard instead of a guest book.
