Every wedding, without fail..

The celebrant asks everyone to put their phones away. Then the phones come straight out.

I get it, everyone wants to remember the moment. But couples usually ask for an unplugged ceremony for a reason. They want to look down the aisle and see their family’s faces.

And if you’re worried about missing the shot, don’t be. That’s what I’m there for!!

If you’re planning a wedding, let your celebrant know you’d like an unplugged ceremony and they’ll make the announcement for you. Whether Aunty listens is another story..

Tag someone who needs to see this :-)

Here's what couples tell me after the wedding.

They forget I was even there.

That's honestly the best compliment I can get. It means you were busy laughing at the ring exchange, catching up with your friends and getting silly in the photo booth, not standing around posing for photos.

My job is to make sure all of it gets captured while you just enjoy your day with your people.

Getting married in South Australia?? Send me through your date through the link in my bio and I'll let you know if I'm free.

What a day on Saturday with Anabel and Alexander!!

With rain forecast we had to move everything from the Rose Garden at Veale Gardens to the at the last minute. You two took it all in your stride and the day came together beautifully.

We still managed to sneak out to a park nearby for a few photos.

Here’s a couple of sneak peeks while I get started on the rest. Can’t wait for you to see the full gallery :-)

Congratulations again guys!!

Thanks to the team at Hotel for making the last-minute change so easy.

A quick shout out to a couple of great vendors from a recent wedding!!

Daisy Bar had the drinks covered from their little vintage caravan. It looked fantastic set up on the day and the team were lovely to work with.

Paella SA cooked up huge pans of paella on site. Always a good sign when the guests start hanging around the food station before it’s even ready :-)

If you’re planning a wedding or event and looking for something a bit different for food and drinks, I’d definitely recommend checking these guys out.

Hi everyone :-)

A bit of news for anyone planning a wedding.

I have kept my prices lower this year while I build up my wedding photography business. It's been a big year, and from 1 January I am putting my prices up.

I didn't want that to catch anyone out though. So if you book with me before 31 December, you keep my 2026 prices. It doesn't matter if your wedding is next year or the year after.

If you're engaged and haven't sorted a photographer yet, or you know someone who is, send me a message. I'm happy to check your date and have a quick chat, no pressure at all.

Thanks for reading, and feel free to share with any engaged friends!!

None of these were posed.

Most couples tell me they're awkward in front of the camera. That's totally fine, you don't need to know how to pose. That's my job.

I just keep things relaxed and make sure I'm there when the real moments happen. The nervous laugh while getting ready, the happy tears at the ceremony, family cracking up on the beach.

If you're getting married anywhere from the Barossa to Victor Harbor, I'd love to hear about your day. Check availability...

Trish and Brad’s backyard country wedding was all about family, good food and a relaxed day with the people they love.

No fancy venue needed. Just a big backyard, handmade pallet signs, a horse watching on from behind the fence, and a dog running around being chased by the kids all day!!

My favourite part of the run sheet sign? “People Talking & Stuff” at 7:00. Best name for the speeches I have ever seen :-)

They also skipped the confetti and handed out bubble sticks instead, and told everyone to sit wherever they liked as they were all family anyway. Little touches like that set the tone for the whole day.

If you’re planning a backyard or country wedding, I’d love to hear about it. These are some of my favourite weddings to photograph.

Having younger family members in the bridal party brings a whole different vibe to the day.

At Trish and Brad’s wedding, their nieces and nephews stood beside them as bridesmaids and junior groomsmen, and it made the morning so relaxed. Less nerves, more laughs, and plenty of fun along the way!!

The gifts were spot on too. The girls got personalised pink velvet jewellery rolls with their names on them in gold. Some of the boys got engraved wooden portable speakers, and others got personalised sunglasses in their own engraved box. How cool is that? Gifts they will actually use long after the wedding.

If you’re thinking about including your nieces and nephews in your bridal party, I say go for it. Some of my favourite photos from the day are the ones nobody planned :-)
