Wedding photos that feel like you
Hi, I’m Jen. I know how it feels—you’re so excited for your wedding day, but there’s that little worry in the back of your mind. Will it feel like an endless photoshoot? Will the photos actually feel like you?
You want beautiful photos, of course, but more than that, you want to enjoy the day—to be present with the people you love most.
You want to look back and see the little moments that mattered: the quick, knowing glance with your partner, or the pure joy on your friends’ faces right after the ceremony, and the euphoria of the dance floor.
These are the moments that thread the story of your day together. And documenting them? That’s what I love most.
The Magic of Weddings
Castlemaine and Melbourne Wedding Photographer for creative, people-centred weddings.
My favourite weddings are not so much caught up in the traditions but scattered with personal touches. Fun and stress free, your wedding symbolises the joy and love you have for each other and that your friends and family have for you too..
I don’t take lightly the privilege of being invited along to such an intimate day in someone’s life and I can be someone to help you plan out a day that feels right for you, I can fit in with your community, and help you not sweat the small stuff.
Meet your photographer
Hi, I'm Jen, nice to meet you
Originally from the Uk but now based in Victoria, Aus with my partner and golden retriever, Maggie.
I specialise in a documentary approach. I would describe my style as capturing the subtle or unexpected moments unobtrusively while providing guidance in the moments you may desire it, such as your portraits.
I have a laidback nature but a strong work ethic and aim for my photos to have a soft, nostalgic feel inspired by the film photographs I would see in my mum’s albums.
I want you to spend your day present and in the moment, as that’s what makes the best photos!
Please don’t stress about the trends or must have shots well meaning acquaintances may advise you during the lead up.
I’ll be there to capture the real and very wonderful moments happening all around you.
Your Experience, Perfected
Over the years, I have refined my client experience, from the first time you contact me to when you finally have all your images in your hands. I want this experience to be fun and for you to feel cared for, especially leading up to your wedding.
packages & offerings
I offer packages custom to your needs, starting from $3,300 and ranging up to $5,500 for couples who would like to include an album. Here’s what else I offer:
Elopements starting from $2,300.
Packages vary depending on how much coverage you require for the day.
Film. Each package includes a handful of rolls of film as a fun added bonus alongside your digital photos. From medium format to 35mm. Further rolls can be added at request.
Fine Art Albums. So you can preserve your precious photos for years to come.
Extra Hours. Decide you'd like me to stay longer on the day? Keen for an extra hour or two of dance floor goodness? I'll bring my comfy shoes.
Additional Photographer. Struggled to cut down the guest list? For weddings over 150 guests you may want to consider a second photographer to ensure nothing is missed.
Travel. Anywhere up to an hour from Maldon, Vic is included. For journeys further afield I can work out a custom quote for you - it may be less than you think!
