Wedding Photography FAQ
What is your style of wedding photography?
My style is documentary wedding photography. Have a look of my wedding portfolio to see for yourself. This means I tend to be hands-off, being as unobtrusive as possible and photographing your wedding day as it happens.
I prefer to photograph this way as it give you more natural looking photos and captures the day as it unfolds. I will also cover group photos, bride & groom portraits and anything you consider important. Contact me to discuss your Wedding Day.

What is an engagement portrait session?
An Engagement Portrait Session is a causal portrait session of the bridal couple without the stress of the Wedding Day. It allows me to get to know you better while taking your portraits at a location of your choice. Photos from Engagement Session are often used in a Guest Signing Books, Wedding Invitations, save the date cards, framed wall prints and canvas Prints.
Do you offer wedding albums?
Absolutely! Most of my couples choose to add a Wedding Album to their wedding coverage. Printing your Wedding Photos in an album is an excellent way to display and preserve them.
My albums are printed on fine art paper and start with 30 pages giving you a good amount of space to display your photos without having to make compromises. For larger weddings, 90 page albums are also available.
What is fine art paper and why do you use that paper?
Fine Art Paper is made of cotton rag and has a long archival quality lasting up to 75 – 100 years. Another reason I use this type of paper is how the colours are reproduced when you print on that type of paper. Black & White photos are crisp and the blacks are deep. Colour photos are vivid and bright.
When I buy a wedding album, can I choose my photos?
You are more than welcome to choose the photos that go into your album. A 60 page album, depending on how we design it and the length of your wedding, will have about 80 – 100 photos.
Do you offer high resolution digital files?
Yes, I do offer the high resolution digital files with all my wedding packages. To give you the most flexibility, I include on your USB the full high resolution digital files ready for printing. You also get a web ready version of your files to make sharing your photos easier.
Do you edit the digital files?
Yes, every digital file I give to my couples has been edited in a clean natural way. This means the editing to your files will be timeless and not dated because of the post processing. Most of the photos will be in colour, and a portion of your photos will also be in black & white.
I see your coverage starts at 8 hours, what if we want more or less hours?
I can do more or even less if you prefer. But I have found that for most small to medium weddings, it is the ideal amount of coverage without you stressing over if you will have enough coverage.
Unless you have a big gap between the ceremony and reception or an extended reception, 8 hours will cover most weddings.
Do you do smaller weddings or elopements?
I enjoy photographing all types of ceremonies both religious and non religious, small interment weddings to very large weddings. please contact me for pricing.
What if we prefer to do our Engagement Session and / or Wedding somewhere other than Canberra?
Current prices include coverage within the Canberra region. I’m happy to travel to other locations for a small fee. Locations such as the South Coast of NSW and Sydney have been some of my favourites.
When will we see the photos from our Engagement Session and Wedding Day?
Your engagement photos will be available for download one week after your engagement session. Your Wedding Photos will be ready two weeks after your Wedding Day and delivered a few days later on USB.
A link will also be emailed to you with a link to a password protected online gallery of your engagement and wedding photos.
– If you purchased an album or guest signing book, you will need to select your photos. Once you have selected your photos and approved the album design, your album will be delivered in approximately ten days.
Can we share the photos you give us?
Of course! You can share and print your photos as you please. On your USB you will get the high resolution files, as well as a smaller version of your photos which is easier to share. I also include a password protected gallery of your Wedding Day & Engagement Session Photos, in case you wanted to show your whole Wedding to family and friends.
