"Hi Marie,
Shane and I have finished going through the photos and we are blown away.
My mother called as well to say they are the best photos she has ever seen and my best friend just rang to say the same. You managed to capture the emotions and joy of the day as well as creating a series of stunning portraits around the gardens and harbour. I love the reaction and crowd shots, the way you picked up all the little details and your artistic eye for light and colour. We couldn't be happier.
Thanks to you both for your work on the day - you were both so calm and unobtrusive - nothing about the process was forced or difficult.
I want to recommend you to everyone!"
"The photos are beautiful!!! We absolutely love them. You have captured so many moments. A lot of the moments we missed on the day so it's wonderful the see them. The shots are so clever and artistic, with reflections, and different compositions and light. You have both done such a perfect job of reflecting our day, and the emotions of all our beautiful friends and family - even with the different light challenges. I can't thank you enough Marie, we are so glad we found you. We will certainly be recommending you to anyone looking for a photographer. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"We've just had a look through all of the pics.. they are amazingggggg, we loved every single one of them. A million thank you's to you both, we were floored by the minor details you captured... something we probably didn't even notice on the day but great to see in hindsight. They are truly exceptional xxx"
"The photos are phenomenal Marie. Thank you so much! You are such an amazing photographer. Pure genius! You were first choice for the both of us and it's the best decision we made. Loved working with you so much and glad you and your crew were part of our day xx."
"Marie! You captured everything we hoped for and more! Your work is truly incredible!
You and Etienne made it so easy and enjoyable for us on our wedding day. I can't thank you both enough and we will be recommending you to all our friends and family!"
"Thank you so very much for these incredible photos. We love them so so much and can't wait to share them with friends and family and get some prints done for the house. We will treasure these forever. The day feels so far away already but just having a look at the images takes us back. We know we've said it before, but we are so grateful we had you to capture our day. The images are beautiful beyond words, but you were also such a lovely, calm and professional presence on the day. Everything was just seamless. I was so concerned about "posing" for photos, but you made it completely natural, effortless and fun."
"Hi Marie, a huge thank you for our out-of-this-world photos, we are so so happy with them and cannot thank you enough. We have shared the link with friends and family.
You captured the day so perfectly, again a huge thank you from us. Luke and I loved reliving the day all over again last night, it was such an amazing day."
"We knew the photos would be amazing, but they are far more incredible than we could have ever imagined! Everything we could have hoped for and more!
I’m so glad we chose you, your style suited us to a tee, and these photos have just blown us away! We keep going through them, and I see ones that I feel like I missed that are just sensational! So many great in-the-moment photos!
Thank you for all of your hard work, these will be cherished forever!!!"
"OMG. No words! We’re both in tears. Such a beautiful capture of our most precious moments xxx"
"Hi Marie,
"WOW !!! WOW!! WOW!! I had no idea that these photos were going to turn out anything like they have !! You are a magician !!
From the bottom of my heart I cannot thank you enough, I have literally been brought to tears!! You have captured these moments beautifully, I now have something to cherish for the rest of my life, thank you so much !!"
FAQ
I'M REALLY AWKWARD IN FRONT OF A CAMERA, I'M AFRAID I WON'T LOOK GOOD
This is probably the first concern my couples have when they come to me. My response is simple: Almost all the people I work with are not professional models and have never been professionally photographed. As such, I do not expect them to know what to do. It is my job as a photographer to guide you to make you look your best while still your authentic self, and have fun in the process.
HOW AND WHEN DO WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS ?
The photos are delivered in a beautifully tiled online gallery. This is a beautiful, easy and intuitive way to view and share your precious memories. The photos can be downloaded individually or as a whole set directly from there in high resolution. And if you don't want to share, that's ok too, I can make your gallery private. Complimentary USB keys are also available upon request.
Beautifully crafted photos take some time, so please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.
DO YOU EDIT ALL THE PHOTOS YOU DELIVER ?
Yes, absolutely! Editing is a crucial part of the final look of the photos you will receive. It ensures consistency of colour palette, temperature and overall look and feel. I always make sure the photos are not over-processed to ensure their timeless quality. There's a current trend where photos have vintage or hipster filters applied to them but they may look dated in a few years. My personal favourite style is the look of classic film stock like Portra 400 which has been around for decades. It has a soft film look but still retains true-to-life colours and beautiful skin tones.
DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH WEDDINGS FROM DIFFERENT CULTURES ?
Yes! A huge part of my work covers photographing weddings from a wide range of cultures including Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Lebanese, Indian and more. I've shot dozens of tea ceremonies and other rituals. I love, embrace and respect the diversity of the wedding world.
WHAT IS THE BOOKING PROCESS ?
Booking is very simple:
Step 1 - I send you a draft contract to review.
Step 2 - Sign and return the contract via e-mail, along with a $1000 deposit to secure your date (NOTE: deposits are transferrable to another date if the wedding needs to be postponed due to Covid restrictions).
Step 3 - Payment balance is due 1 week prior to the wedding date.
Step 4 - Have a fabulous day
