About

Overview & Vibe

An Adelaide-based destination wedding photographer, originally from the UK, who photographs weddings across Australia and Europe on both digital and 35mm film. The published work runs from Adelaide Hills vineyards and Barossa estates to Tuscan castles, English cathedrals and a Lake Como elopement. She takes a small number of weddings a year and quotes each one individually.

Style & Approach

Documentary and unhurried; the day is photographed as it unfolds, with gentle direction only where it helps. The stated aim is to capture not just how the day looked but how it felt, including the people around the couple. Images are hand-edited and lean natural and timeless rather than heavily styled, and 35mm film can be shot alongside digital.

Ideal For

Couples marrying overseas or interstate who want one photographer to travel with them, and Adelaide couples who want a considered, low-key presence rather than a directed one. Equally suited to a cliffside elopement and a multi-day celebration. Destination books open more than a year ahead, so it suits couples planning early.

The Need-to-Knows

  • Pricing with each celebration quoted individually rather than sold as a fixed package.
  • Coverage can be personalised with an engagement session, 35mm film, a second photographer, extra hours or a handcrafted album.
  • Images are hand-edited and delivered through an online gallery; albums and prints are available on request.
  • Available in Adelaide, Sydney, Melbourne, Queensland, New Zealand and across Europe, and for travel worldwide.
  • Ask about any travel surcharge, including for overseas weddings.
  • Ask about delivery times and hours of coverage when you enquire.

Standout Feature

A published travel diary. She lists where she will already be in the coming year (the UK, Portugal, Spain, Sydney) and opens destination books a year ahead, which lets a couple marrying near one of those dates plan around a photographer who is going to be in the country anyway. Very few photographers publish their movements at all.
