ASK A QUESTION

  • Popular dates can book out well in advance - often 12 to 18 months ahead, especially Fridays and Saturdays during peak wedding season.  If you already have your venue and date locked in, it's worth getting in touch early to check availability.  Your date is secured once your booking and retainer are completed.

  • It really depends on how much of the day you would like captured.  Six hours works well for smaller weddings, eight hours gives you great coverage from the key moments of the day into the reception and ten hours is ideal if you want the full story - with more time at both ends of the day and a little extra breathing room.

  • Completely. Most couples tell me this before their wedding. I’ll give you gentle direction when you need it, keep things moving and make sure nothing feels stiff or posed. 

  • My wedding photography collections start at $4,350 for six hours of coverage. I also offer eight and ten hour collections which are very popular.

  • Absolutely! Based in Melbourne, I’ve photographed destination weddings in Bali and Fiji alongside shoots in France, Italy and Croatia. I welcome weddings worldwide, with a particular passion for capturing celebrations across Europe.

  • The easiest way is to fill out the contact form and tell me a little about your wedding - your date, venue and what you're planning.  I'll check availability and send through everything you need to know about collections and booking.
