About

Overview & Vibe

A one-photographer wedding studio based at Elanora, in the southern Gold Coast, shooting across the coast and into Byron Bay and Brisbane. Weddings are the whole business (there is no family, portrait or commercial line beside them) and the published work is almost entirely couples outdoors: headlands, rainforest, open paddocks and confetti at the end of a ceremony. The tone is warm and unfussy, and the studio is happy to say so.

Style & Approach

Relaxed and understated, aiming to be invisible to most guests, with a mix of directed portraits and unscripted moments. The editing leans fine art and natural light, and finished galleries come in colour with selected black and whites. The promise is no awkward posing, no props and no fake smiles; the portrait session is guided rather than staged, and the rest of the day is left to unfold.

Ideal For

Couples marrying anywhere between Byron Bay and Brisbane who want one photographer for the whole day rather than a team, and who like coastal and rainforest settings. The separate elopement package suits a small ceremony (up to ten guests, no bridal party). Destination couples are welcomed too.

The Need-to-Knows

  • Four packages: a three-hour elopement, up to four hours, eight hours, or a full day of up to ten.
  • Image counts rise with the package: four hundred or more, six hundred or more, eight hundred or more, all delivered at full resolution in a private online gallery with a download link.
  • A deposit confirms the date.
  • An initial meeting, over coffee or by video call, is included in every package.
  • Nothing extra is charged for Byron Bay or Brisbane.
  • A wedding album is sold separately: ten inches square, twenty spreads, archival ink on fine art paper, four cover materials, with the price given on enquiry.

Standout Feature

An elopement package that is a real product rather than a discount: three hours, one photographer, up to ten guests, listed alongside the full-day options. Plenty of photographers quote elopements privately; publishing the terms alongside everything else means a small wedding can be compared against a large one without an email.
