MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

I dance like no one’s watching (even when everyone really, really is). I have cuddle-control issues around dogs. And I commit 10000% to making every couple’s wedding that I photograph the most joyous, beautiful and often hilarious experience possible.

And guess what, we could be the next best thing, a killer trio.  You’re a couple, and I’m a third wheeling picture taker who happens to like dogs possibly too much. Nothing weird about that at all.

But you gotta feel that this is going to affable. Take a look around, and if you're feelin' it, get in contact. I can't wait to talk sh*t over Zoom (because, you know, iso life).

THAT CRAZY DOG LADY WHO HAPPENS TO BE A PHOTOGRAPHER

You can usually find me hanging in the dog park with my fur children, Ollie and Oscar. I guarantee that I’m the most dog-loving wedding photographer in Yarra Valley, bar none. I’m an outdoors type of girl; I love taking a stroll around gorgeous gardens and pretty parks. When I’m not outside, I’m probably checking out the latest flicks in the cinema or gorging on pasta. I looooooove pasta. I’m also partial to a lil’ daydream about jet-setting across the globe - Europe, America, New Zealand and anywhere in between!

I spend a lot of time with my boyfriend, Joel (when he’s lucky enough to have me). Joel is actually the main reason why I decided to specialise in wedding photography. I never believed that such a natural connection could exist between people before Joel came into my life (I know, what a cynic!). With him, I’ve discovered an endless source of happiness and pure joy; my goal is to capture that same connection in other couples!

I’m all about capturing authentic snapshots of life in an organic and natural way. I’m forever chasing the real moments, not awkwardly-posed portraits that make you feel uncomfortable and look, uh, constipated. My approach to shooting is like a documentary; I want to get to know you in the lead up to The Big Day, so I can capture the real people behind the formalities. We’ll link up on the socials and get chatting right from the beginning of the process; by the end of it, I’ll be waaaay more than just your photographer!

All this groundwork creates a perfect space for pure photographic magic to occur. I take an ‘observer’ role on the day, shooting all the little details and the subtle moments between people that are worth remembering.

OUTSIDE OF PHOTOGRAPHY?

WHAT ABOUT MY PHOTOGRAPHY?

FAIR WARNING:
When the camera’s safely back in the bag, I’ll shred that dancefloor like grated cheese.
