About

Overview & Vibe

Fifteen years of weddings, run out of Edgeworth on the Newcastle side of Lake Macquarie. Jack and his wife Frankie moved up from Sydney in 2021, and he married her in the mountains of Slovenia in 2023 - which he says deepened his gratitude for the job rather than changing what he understood about it.

Style & Approach

Relaxed, modern and natural, with the day captured as it unfolds. He is clear that he is not a fly on the wall - he brings energy to the room and often finishes as a friend of the couple. The portfolio ranges from paddock ceremonies to two portraits shot under the Milky Way.

Ideal For

Couples anywhere in a wide arc around Newcastle - the Hunter Valley, Sydney, the Blue Mountains, the Southern Highlands and the Central Coast all fall inside his no-charge travel area. He photographs all couples, all families, all people, and says so plainly.

The Need-to-Knows

Wedding photography from $3,800; elopements and intimate weddings from $1,800.
All-day coverage starts at nine hours and more time can be added.
No travel charge for weddings within three hours’ drive of Newcastle.
Typically 800 to 1,200 or more edited images, with no cap, delivered without watermarks.
A $1,000 retainer and a signed contract secure the date; final images take up to twelve weeks.

Standout Feature

He publishes his backup policy in full, which almost nobody does: five copies of your photographs in multiple locations until final delivery, the original memory cards held offsite until then, and from late 2026 the RAW files kept for five years.
