About

Overview & Vibe

A Melbourne wedding photographer working in both digital and film, from a studio in Brunswick East. Two collections cover the range — six to ten hours for a full wedding day from $5,000, or two hours for an elopement or micro-wedding from $3,000, both inclusive of GST. Only a limited number of weddings are taken each year, and the work has been published in Harper’s Bazaar Bride, Hello May, The Lane and Ivory Tribe.

Style & Approach

Candid, documentary and elegant, with a fine art and editorial background behind it. The stated approach is calm and fly-on-the-wall: observe the day as it unfolds, step in gently only when guidance helps, and let couples settle into themselves rather than perform for a camera. Frames may be digital, 35mm or 120 medium-format film.

Ideal For

Couples who want an unobtrusive record of the day rather than a directed shoot, and who like the idea of film alongside digital. The two-hour elopement collection suits a small ceremony; the six-to-ten-hour collection covers a full day. Weddings are photographed across Australia and abroad — Italy, France, Norway, Malta, Spain, Bali and New Zealand among them.

The Need-to-Knows

A $1,500 non-refundable booking fee and a signed contract hold the date, with the balance due four weeks before. Extra hours are $500 each. Expect roughly 300 to 1,200 edited images in a private gallery, sneak peeks within a week and the full gallery in six to eight weeks. Film is an add-on from $250 a roll with minimum roll counts, and a second photographer can be added at $165 an hour.

Standout Feature

The custom fine art book, at $1,990 if you pre-order it and $2,200 afterwards — 30 spreads over 60 pages, around 100 photographs, lay-flat binding with no visible seams, and a choice of more than 70 cover materials from Japanese linen to velvet.
