• Sure do! I will be back in Italy and France from May - July 2027.

  • I’m based in Melbourne, Australia, but I adore travelling and will jump at any chance to go anywhere. Let me know your plans, and I’ll put together a custom quote for you! I’ll be back in Europe in May through to July 2027

  • I’ve been shooting weddings for over 10 years now. I’ve shot over 400 weddings both in Australia, New Zealand, Italy, France and the USA.

  • Yes of course. Meetings online and in person are available each week on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays.

  • Yes! I offer fine art albums-beautifully crafted, high-end books designed to show off your wedding photos in the most timeless way. They’re the perfect way to relive your day for years to come. More info to come - please ask if you would like more infomation

  • Yes! Every couple gets 1 roll of film included in their days coverage. I also offer full day film shooting too, which is usually 4-5 rolls.

  • I do offer a second photographer. Normally they can come along to help cover the ceremony through to the early parts of your reception (or longer if you wish). I often shoot alone, but it can be a great idea to have a second person roaming around if you are having a large wedding with over 120 people, that way more of your gorgeous guests will be photographed.

  • Pop all your info into my contact form and I’ll be back in touch with my pricing and availability within 2 days.

    I receive over 400 enquiries each year but only take on around 30 weddings. This means I can be fully present and involved before, during and after your day. The more detail you can share about your plans, the better I can get a sense of whether we’re the right fit from the start.

  • Absolutely. My list of faves are just here

ABOUT ME

I’ve been capturing weddings for over a decade now, drawn to documenting celebrations that blend style, connection, and a really good party. My couples tend to have a strong sense of style and an eye for details that make a day feel personal and intentional, but they also have a deep love for family and the people around them, which is exactly what I aim to reflect in every frame.

My approach to capturing your day is grounded in honesty and attention to detail. I want you to recognise yourselves in your images, nothing too posed or out of place, but always beautiful and considered. I take time to understand your style and what matters most to you, and I never overlook the importance of your guests. After all, the people you’ve chosen to share your day with are just as much a part of your story.

My goal is simple: to capture your day in a way that feels natural, stylish and true to you. The kind of photos that look beautiful today and still feel like you years from now.

Originally from New Zealand, I’ve called Australia home for the past 14 years. These days, I live in leafy Eltham, and when I’m not working, you can find me at the gym, endlessly scrolling anything design and interiors related, travelling back home to NZ, or simply out for a walk with a coffee in hand.
