About

Overview & Vibe

Kelsea Midson is a wedding and elopement photographer based at Sheffield in Tasmania’s north west, under Mount Roland and at the doorstep of Cradle Mountain. She has photographed milestone moments full time since 2010, and her published weddings run from the Cradle Mountain highlands through the Tamar Valley estates to the coast.

Style & Approach

She describes her work as candid documentary with editorial leanings — warmth, natural emotion, true colours and organic feeling, and narrative images meant to carry you back to how the moment felt. Her stated aim is to capture the day authentically, preserving its energy without intruding on it.

Ideal For

Couples who want a photographer who is also a planning ally — timeline help, vendor suggestions and national park permit assistance are written into her elopement packages. She works equally on a full wedding day, a guided adventure elopement with a roadtrip to a remote location, or a quiet ceremony with two witnesses.

The Need-to-Knows

Wedding coverage runs from three hours at $3,000 to nine hours at $6,000, inclusive of GST, and elopement packages start at $2,000. There is no travel fee within a two-hour radius of Sheffield, which reaches across the north west and into Launceston. A $1,000 deposit secures a wedding date and $500 secures an elopement, with the balance due four weeks beforehand.

Standout Feature

The elopement packages are a planning service as much as a photography one — unlimited consultations, help with national park permits, locations only a local would know, and the roadtrip between them counted inside the coverage time rather than billed on top.

Albums & Prints

  • Fine Art Books and Albums — Albums made with the elegance of luxury art and coffee table books in mind, with ten per cent off when one is added to a wedding package.
  • Wall Art and Print Range — Wall art and prints for the home, ordered through the couple's own online print store.
