FAQ

As soon as you’ve locked in your date! I take on a limited number of weddings each year to keep things personal and intentional, so early booking (6–12 months out) is ideal.

Absolutely. I'm regularly captures love stories across Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, and beyond. Travel is included within 60km of Medowie, with a small fee for further adventures.

My style is soulful, documentary, and deeply connected. No stiff posing — just honest storytelling that captures real emotion, quiet glances, and wild dance floors alike. Of course, if there are particular people or moments you’d love captured, that becomes a priority on the day too. It’s your story — I'm just there to help you remember it all.

Every gallery is a little different, but you can expect 300–800 carefully curated, high-resolution images for full-day coverage. I focuse on quality, storytelling, and giving you every meaningful moment.

Sneak peeks arrive within 72 hours (because waiting is the worst), and your full gallery is delivered within 4–6 weeks via a private online link, ready to download, print, and relive.

Absolutely. I offer free connection calls to see if you vibe — because choosing your photographer should feel right in your heart, not just your inbox.

From the start of the day, to the end of the day, our photographers felt like friends we had invited; literally part of the occasion. They mingled in and it was stunning to looking back at the most precious moments through their lens’.
