OVERVIEW
I will be a part of your wedding planning team from day one. I will help you to organise your special day and make sure we capture every wonderful moment to tell your wedding story.
Why couples choose me?
PROFESSIONAL
I am a full-time photographer, who specialises in photographing weddings and family portraits, in Canberra and the surrounds. I have been offering my services since 2017 and photographed hundreds of families and events including weddings. I've also received multiple awards and am recognised as a Professional Photographer by AIPP.
STYLE
My very own style has been developed over years is a mix of relaxed, romantic and creative shots. I capture the joyous candid moments along with some traditional photos for your family archives. I also love creating art, so let's do it together! I see your photos printed in large frames hanging in your home that will impress all your guests! I expect a "WOW!!" and nothing less than that when they see them.
CARING
I care deeply about my craft but even more so I care about the connections I make with the amazing people I get to work with. I will make your day run smooth and easy, as we discuss all the details in advance, having ideas for plans A to Z. I am available at any time whether you should need some advice or if you have any questions. You will have as many consultations as you need. We will organise a mini rehearsal of the day and we will discuss everything in great detail.
FRIENDLY
People also say I am a friendly, fun and an easy going person. Who knows whether it is true or not? There is only one way to find out - shoot me a message!
AND I LOVE COFFEE!

Hi Michael, thank you so much for your warm words! It was my pleasure working on your big day! And thank you for looking after me as it's truly my weakness, that I can get too focused on capturing moments that I sometimes forget to look after myself. Haha. Your happiness and memories is the most important thing for me on the day!
