AN ADELAIDE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

          Poppy and Shaun have all kinds of things in common. They’re both super laid back, sporty, and tall –  she’s literally a tall Poppy. They also have this beautiful connection and comfort level around one another, it’s super cheesy but when you spend a bit of time with them legitimately feels […]

For whatever reason, it hardly ever rains at the wrong time on a wedding day. Maybe it’s because 95% of my weddings are in the driest state of the driest continent on earth, actually, that’s almost certainly the reason, but even when rain is forecast it always seems to dodge my weddings when it needs to. […]

To be honest, before heading up to Longview for this wedding my experience of the haka had been limited to watching the All Blacks intimidate the hell out of whoever they were about to destroy (actually, not entirely true, I saw the Tall Blacks play Team USA at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 and they […]

  With nearly 200 weddings under my belt it’s not often I come across something I’ve not seen before, but Louise and Ash executed a reception idea that was totally new and super awesome.

  Sometimes great photos are meticulously planned and sometimes they just happen. If I’m shooting at a new venue I’ll generally do some location scouting to get an idea of what I’m in for but as a rule I don’t like to be too rigid with my planning as a scene can look totally different […]

Groom’s Mum via Facebook: “Hi Simon, Daniel’s mum from Friday’s wedding, thank u for the wonderful photo of my parents dancing, could’ve knocked me over with a feather seeing that, haven’t seen dad up like that in a very long time.” Me: “Hi Tracey, that was a pretty magical moment watching your parents dance, especially […]

We started the day, like all good weddings should, with a game of beach cricket and a swim in the ocean. The problem was it was super windy and actually pretty chilly, a lot colder than we were expecting when we put the schedule together. Fortunately Tim and his men were up for anything and […]

A phrase that gets said at a lot of my meetings with couples is “we hate having our photo taken, one of us is always blinking, we’ve got like 2 nice photos of us”. I assume that these couples are sitting on my couch because they like my informal approach to wedding photography and the […]
