Weddings, elopements and engagements across Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, Port Stephens and the Central Coast, from a studio in Cooks Hill. Every frame stays black and white until you choose it.



The whole day, from getting ready to the last song. Two of us shoot it, one on the two of you and one on the room, so nothing is missed while you are busy being married.
Just the two of you and a celebrant, or a handful of people on a headland. Short and quiet, and photographed with the same care as a day for two hundred.
An hour somewhere that is yours, a few months before the wedding. You get used to the camera and to us, so on the day you forget we are there.
Four weddings, three frames each, the way they come off the roll. The one circled in red is the frame the couple picked first. Hover a frame to bring it up in colour.













We circled forty of them and couldn't pick a favourite. She caught Dad crying before he'd even walked me in.

Rain all morning, and somehow every photo looks like it was planned that way. We stopped worrying by ten.

Eight of us and a celebrant on a headland. The gallery came back in three weeks and it reads like a story, start to finish.
It depends on the hours, whether you want a second photographer, and whether you want an album. A two-hour elopement and a ten-hour day with two of us are very different jobs, so we quote for your day rather than print a list. Send us the date, the place and roughly how long you'd like us there, and we'll send the collections that fit, with everything they include.
Yes. Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, Port Stephens and the Central Coast are all home ground, so there's no travel fee anywhere from Terrigal up to Nelson Bay and out to Pokolbin. Further afield, we charge travel at cost and tell you the figure before you book.
Only the ones that suit it. Your gallery comes in colour, with black and white versions of the frames that work better that way. This site stays black and white until you choose a frame because that's how a contact sheet looks before the picks are made; your gallery doesn't.
An elopement is the two of you, a celebrant and two witnesses, sometimes a handful of family, with two to four hours of photography somewhere that means something to you. A small wedding usually has a reception. Either way it's a legal marriage in NSW, so the Notice of Intended Marriage still has to reach your celebrant at least one month before the day.
For most couples, yes. It's an hour somewhere you like, a few months before the wedding, and it's where you find out that being photographed isn't as awkward as you expect. On the day you've done it before, and it shows. It's included in our full-day collections, or can be booked on its own.
You'll get a preview of around thirty frames within a week. The full gallery takes about six weeks for a wedding and three for an elopement, because every frame is edited by hand, not run through a preset.
Saturdays from September to April usually go 12 to 18 months ahead. Weekdays, winter and elopements are easier, sometimes only a few weeks out. Send us your date and we'll tell you straight away if it's free; a deposit holds it.
Tell us the date and where it is. We'll tell you straight away if we're free, and what the day would look like with us there.
