About

Overview & Vibe

Susan Jacobs has photographed from Dalby since 2016, and 2026 is her tenth year. She grew up on her family’s farm just outside town and still lives on it, and that country Queensland setting runs through her work, she photographs weddings across the Western Downs and the Darling Downs, from Tara, Chinchilla and Miles through to Toowoomba and Kingaroy.

Style & Approach

She works two ways within the same day. Alongside that she directs a smaller set of creative portraits, because there the intention changes from recording the day to making a piece of art the couple can hang. Her advice to couples is not to be afraid to move while she works, the hair sweeps, the cuddles and the hand holding are what she is watching for.

Ideal For

Country weddings on the Downs, and couples who would rather be photographed by someone who lives there than by someone travelling out for the day. Because she takes very few bookings, she suits couples who plan a long way ahead.

The Need-to-Knows

  • 2026 is fully booked. She is taking enquiries for 2027 dates.
  • She offers a maximum of four sessions a month, and in busy planting and harvest months sometimes none at all.
  • Editing turnaround is longer than usual at present, while she supports her family’s farm.
  • A wedding is confirmed only once the deposit and contract are finalised, and she does not hold dates while an enquiry is open.
  • She sends a full investment list when you enquire.
  • She also photographs families, events, personal branding and commercial work, and shoots video.

Standout Feature

She is a working farmer as well as a photographer. Her family runs three certified organic properties totalling 11,500 acres, the home block near Dalby established in 1923. That is why she takes so few weddings a year, and it is also why she knows the country her couples marry in.
