Across Australia, New Zealand, or wherever else you're being called.
Right... Where are we going?
[ where ]
and what Y.O.U. love
It's ok to make your wedding day all about you...
But when it comes to figuring out the where, when, and how of your elopement adventure, you need someone else on your team.
Maybe you’re just not keen on being in the spotlight all day, the thought of walking down an isle with all eyes on you is too much, or the price tag is daunting, or you’re just not into huge hotel ballrooms. Instead, you catch yourself dreaming about that place where you have already been together, something more relaxed and intimate, or somewhere new to explore or where you can connect with nature. Maybe you want to get married just the two of you, or maybe you want to gather a small group of your loved ones for a sunset ceremony with an alfresco dinner under the stars..
Somewhere in the planning, you noticed you weren't looking forward to it.
Once everything’s organised, we’ll hit the road to document it all—from the vast epic landscapes through to the very intimacy of your love. And along the way, we promise we’ll have a lot of fun doing it. This is a once in a life time event for you both so it's as special to me as it is you.
As your adventure elopement photographer, I am there to help you plan everything from start to finish, whether you’re a local like me or coming from another state or even internationally, like some of my couples do. We’ll create an adventure that feels like you, whether that’s summiting a mountain, canoeing across an alpine lake, snowboarding Thredbo or just quietly soaking in the views at your chosen spot with a casual stroll.
[ the planning ]
None of it is an add-on. Planning is included in every collection because it's most of the work — and it's what makes the day feel like yours rather than a schedule you're being marched through.
Sixteen years of it has taught me a few things.
01.
05.
All of it is yours before the day arrives — the whole thing on one page.
How much actually fits in a day
Enough that it doesn't feel rushed, and not so much that you spend it watching the clock. The gaps are the part you'll remember.

Headlands are breezy and a short hike is always longer than it looks in a dress. We go slower than you think we need to.
What a dress does in wind, and on the walk in
A weather plan made now, not at six in the morning
Somewhere covered, a second spot lower down, or an agreement that rain is allowed. Decided while it's still abstract.
02.
This coast faces east, so sunset sits behind the land on most beaches. Where you stand and when you stand there is one decision, not two.
What the light is doing at the hour you've picked
Which places need a permit, and who issues it
Councils, national parks and private owners all work differently, and a few places won't allow a ceremony at all. Easier to know now than a fortnight before.
Four hours to multiple days. Travel within South East Queensland included; anywhere further quoted before you commit to anything. Planning included.
