Your wedding day moves fast. A beautiful blur of kisses, nerves, laughter, and happy tears. Our role is to capture not just how it looked, but how it felt. The big moments, the quiet glances, the energy in the room, and the way you held each other when it all became real.
By working closely with you, we transform your once-in-a-lifetime celebration into stylish, emotionally rich images that stand the test of time. Not just photographs for now, but part of your legacy, the kind you’ll revisit on anniversaries and random Tuesday nights when you want to remember exactly how it all began.
We bring not just our cameras, but a keen eye for detail and emotion. We’ll be there to catch every laugh, tear, and loving glance.
Before your wedding day arrives, we take the time to properly understand you, your story, your dynamic, and what matters most. We’ll talk through your vision for your wedding, the feeling you want woven through it, and the details that make it unmistakably yours.
Every package includes a pre-wedding consultation and planning session so nothing feels templated or rushed. We’ll shape a plan around your wedding day. The flow, the key moments, and the people who matter most, ensuring your photography reflects your relationship, not just a checklist.
Feeling nervous about being photographed on your wedding day? Completely normal. That’s why we send you our Wedding Guide, packed with our tips, insights, and behind-the-scenes wisdom from years of experience. It’s everything you need to feel calm, confident, and genuinely present when the day unfolds.
On your wedding day, we move seamlessly within it, present but never intrusive. We capture the spontaneous, emotional, beautifully chaotic moments alongside the carefully planned ones.
We bring more than cameras. We bring energy. Calm when timelines shift. Reassurance when emotions run high. Gentle direction that never feels staged. We know when to step in, and when to step back and let your wedding day breathe.
With over 15 years of experience, we don’t chase trends, we create wedding photographs that feel timeless. The kind you’ll still love decades from now, when the dress is boxed away but the memories feel just as powerful.
When your wedding day settles into memory, the storytelling continues. We carefully select and professionally edit each image, crafting a curated collection that captures the full heartbeat of your wedding, the joy, the atmosphere, the quiet in-between moments you didn’t even realise were happening.
Your high- and web-resolution wedding photographs are delivered via a private online gallery for easy viewing and sharing. You can celebrate them with everyone or keep certain favourites just for yourselves. Your gallery remains online for two years, giving you time to revisit and relive every part of your wedding day.
Every package includes a print credit because your wedding photographs deserve more than a screen. We’ll help you transform them into heirloom prints or albums, tangible pieces of your wedding legacy, designed to last a lifetime.
Your wedding journey starts with a pre-wedding consultation and planning session to ensure everything runs smoothly on your big day. You’ll receive our comprehensive Wedding Guide, and your beautiful photos will be delivered via online gallery, perfect for easy sharing with family and friends. As a bonus, you’ll get a $200 print credit to spend on a range of high-quality print products.

We’ve been photographing engagements and weddings for over 15 years, which means we’ve seen it all. Timeline chaos, wind doing whatever it wants, groomsmen disappearing, dresses that refuse to bustle.
And we’ve handled it calmly. Every time.
When people find out we’re wedding photographers, they almost always tell us their own wedding story and far too often it comes with a regret about the photos. Missed moments, awkward direction, energy that felt off. We don’t let that happen.
Hundreds of weddings in, we know how to read a room, move quickly, pivot when needed, and still make everything feel effortless.
We’ll be your hype girls when you need confidence. Your calm when emotions run high. Your steady presence when the day starts flying by. And somehow, you’ll still forget we’re there half the time because you’ll be too busy having the best day of your life.
Every photographer shares the same eye, the same editing style, and the same commitment to creating exceptional imagery. Consistent, cohesive, and beautifully you. If you have a favourite, you’re absolutely welcome to request them when you book. We’re a team, but we’re also humans you get to choose from.

Kate Griffin
"Thank you so much for our beautiful photos. As always, they are amazing. When you've lost someone you love in life, photos become so much more than just the images you have. So thank you for capturing the true essence of our family. I simply wouldn't use anyone else."
"She did an amazing job photographing a large, slightly chaotic event I organised recently."
jody pawley
"Ruth is a talented photographer who I would work again with in a heartbeat. She did an amazing job photographing a large, slightly chaotic event I organised recently. I was extremely happy with not only the beautiful photos that resulted from the night but also the whole process start to finish, from booking in, and giving details to the different reminders and confirmations. It gave me confidence that everything was discussed, understood and would be delivered upon, and it was. Thank you Ruth, can’t recommend you highly enough."
"My toddler was incredibly distracting but Ruth took it in her stride, got him involved and just carried on"
Hannah Farrant
"Thank you so much Ruth for an amazing photoshoot in the comfort of our own home. Thank you for not only capturing some beautiful pictures of our newborn Milo but also his big brother. My toddler was incredibly distracting but Ruth took it in her stride, got him involved and just carried on with the task in hand. All our family & friends absolutely loved the pictures as much as we did. An experience we will treasure forever. We highly recommend Ruth for all your photography needs. Thanks again!"
"The photos she captured hold such a special place in our lives and we cannot wait to work with her again."
Veronica Couttes
"We are so incredibly happy that we chose Ruth as our wedding photographer. She is an excellent photographer with amazing people skills and truly captured the essence of what we wanted on our special day. Ruth managed to keep everybody happy, made us feel so special, and delivered images that are simply priceless — they look incredible. She was professional and discreet during the ceremony, yet still captured the most beautiful, meaningful moments. If you feel anxious about having your photo taken, or have family members who need a slightly firmer (yet always compassionate and gentle) hand, you won’t go wrong with Ruth."
"With that amount of young children to wrangle, It could have gone terribly wrong, but she was calm and engaging"
Jen Cooper
"We had Ruth Photograph our extended Family. We are a large family With 10 immediate family members, and all of their partners and children. She was an absolute legend. With that amount of young children to wrangle, It could have gone terribly wrong, but she was calm and engaging and managed to draw out some absolutely stunning photos. Highly recommend Ruth! And we will be coming to her again when we do this in the future."
"we feel so much more comfortable having been in front of the camera, and knowing what its all about before the wedding"
Rebecca Newland
"We are so glad we did an engagement shoot before our wedding! One, because we cant believe the awesome photos we have, its going to be so hard to pick some faves to get printed! But also we feel so much more comfortable having been in front of the camera, and knowing what its all about before the wedding. Ruth was amazing at making us feel totally comfortable and as if we knew what we were doing. She totally understood what we were wanting, with photos around our farm and even made our cows look pretty! I totally recommend Ruth as a photographer, and we cannot wait for her to capture our wedding day."
"We are totally in love with the outcome of the photos we received."
Taylor Symons
"Ruth is definitely one of the best in the business! Such a good experience and she made my partner and I feel super at ease with having our photos taken as well as Ruth has a great sense of humour too. We are totally in love with the outcome of the photos we received. Will definitely be organizing to see Ruth again in the future for more family pictures!"
"there are lots of laughs and you end up with the most incredible shots of your family to turn into art"
Sarah Greenfield
"We’ve been fortunate enough to have worked with Ruth on numerous occasions from our pregnancy shots, newborn pics and most recently a family photoshoot. Ruth’s family sessions are awesome as she makes you feel totally relaxed, there are lots of laughs and you end up with the most incredible shots of your family to turn into art to dress the walls of your home."
If you want to book us for your wedding but are not sure how much time you’ll need, we can secure your date and figure out the details later. Once we’ve nailed down what photographs you want (your run sheet), it’ll become clearer how much time you’ll need. You can always add more time or a second photographer later as well.
This really depends on the number of guests, the events of the day, and a variety of other factors. We generally deliver around 100 photographs an hour. For 9 hours of photography, and with one photographer, you could expect to receive between 700 and 1000 photographs.
You’re really not alone in this! We work with many couples who are not keen on being photographed, and we take great care to get the best out of even the most reluctant subjects. We've been photographing weddings and engagements for over 15 years and have spent much time helping people relax and forget we're even there.
We're confident we can anticipate where we need to be and when. However, one photographer can’t be in two places at once. If your wedding has 100 guests, we highly recommend adding a second photographer to your packages. We work together to get the fullest coverage possible. An additional photographer may shoot details and candid shots while the primary photographer is taking formal group photos. They also help with holding props and lighting gear and helping make sure you get the best memories possible.
We know you’ll be desperate to see the photos, so we'll send you a sneak peek within 7 days. Your full gallery of online photos will usually be delivered within 3-4 weeks. However, with wedding photography during peak wedding season, it may be up to 8-10 weeks. Don’t worry, we’ll keep you updated with how everything’s going. The digital photographs are professionally and expertly edited, which takes time.
To secure your date, we’ll send an agreement. This covers what to expect and what services we provide so you have it all down in writing. You’ll book your date for weddings with a $1000 non-refundable deposit. The full balance is due two weeks before your wedding via bank transfer or credit card payment. We can discuss this at our initial call if you’d like to spread out payments with a payment plan.
Yes, we can arrange a payment plan, or use Genoapay. We have also had clients whose guests purchased vouchers to contribute to the cost of their albums.
Your images are designed to live far beyond your screen. They can be shared with family and friends, used for announcements and thank you cards, framed in your home, or preserved in heirloom albums that tell the full story of your day or your season of life. Most importantly, they become part of your family history — the photographs on the walls, the album pulled out at Christmas, the moments you’ll revisit years from now and remember exactly how it felt.
When your full gallery is delivered, we’ll provide a code for any print credit included in your package. Our professional print shop is built directly into your online gallery, making it simple to order beautiful, high-quality prints and products straight from your collection. Digital files are just the beginning. We’ll guide you through meaningful, tangible ways to turn your photographs into lasting keepsakes.
Absolutely. We regularly work alongside talented wedding videographers and content creators, and we understand how to collaborate seamlessly so your day flows naturally and everyone captures their best work.
If you’ve already booked someone, we’ll connect ahead of time to align on timing, positioning and creative direction. Clear communication ensures we’re complementing each other, not competing for moments.
If you haven’t secured a videographer or content creator yet, we’re happy to recommend one of our trusted partners whose style and professionalism align beautifully with ours.
Absolutely. After photographing weddings for many years, we’ve built strong relationships with some incredibly talented local vendors — from celebrants and florists to planners, stylists and venues.
If you’re still building your dream team, we’re more than happy to share recommendations for professionals we know, trust and love working alongside. Surrounding yourself with experienced vendors makes a genuine difference to how your day feels and flows.
