Sunlit Studios

About

Overview & Vibe

Sunlit Studios is a Gold Coast team of wedding photographers and filmmakers working from a studio at Pimpama, midway between Brisbane and the coast. They have been photographing weddings since 2010 and describe themselves as a close-knit group who work shoulder to shoulder through the day, with every photographer and filmmaker carrying more than ten years behind the camera.

Style & Approach

In their own words, a blend of candid, documentary and traditional. They will have you moving, dancing and laughing rather than posed, they shoot with the finished album in mind, and they mix natural light with a little of their own to get a soft, warm look. They are also firm that nothing is culled or edited by AI.

Ideal For

Couples marrying between Brisbane and the Gold Coast who want photography and film from one team rather than two suppliers, and couples eloping who still want the full studio treatment. They photograph at Tamborine Mountain, Maleny and the Sunshine Coast most weekends and have travelled for weddings as far as Canada, Fiji, Japan, Thailand and Bali.

The Need-to-Knows

Elopement collections start at $2,990, photography with a fine art album at $4,800, and photography and film together at $8,600. A $1,000 deposit secures the date, the balance can be spread over a fee-free payment plan, and the studio is open by appointment only.

Standout Feature

They keep a reserve photographer on hand for every booking, so illness cannot leave you without one, and they promise sneak peeks within five business days and the full set within six weeks.

Albums & Prints

Fine art album — included from $4,800. It comes with the photography collections rather than as a separate purchase, and they say they shoot with the finished album in mind.

Appointment Policy

Most couples book at an obligation-free wedding consultation, and the studio at Pimpama is open by appointment only.
You meet the photographer who will shoot your day before it arrives, usually at the consultation or an engagement shoot.
