About Me

Hi I’m MARK

A SOUTH WEST Wedding Photographer

Telling your story with beautiful timeless images.

I’m a professional photographer living in Dunsborough in the picturesque South West of Western Australia.
I am a story teller. I capture beautiful images of special moments, with all their feelings and emotions, in a relaxed and natural style.
I bring those images together in a collection that tells the story of your wedding day and all the little details that make it unique.
I take the time to understand your individual personalities and preferences, so that the whole process, from start to finish, is a pleasure.

My style is organic.

The day, the light, the setting, the people, the places and your style – all play their part in my shot selection.
I am intuitive and can ‘read the play’ – so when circumstances and plans change – it is all captured as part of the fun and drama of the day.

Relaxed & natural story telling.

How many hours photo coverage do I need for my Wedding?

Wedding day photography bookings range from 1 – 12 hrs.
This will depend on a number of factors.
How much of your WEDDING DAY STORY you would like to be covered by a professional. How many guests you are inviting. How many group/family shots you plan for. Number of venues and how much travel time is involved.
As a starting point you can use the following as a guide…
Getting ready shots – 1 hour
Ceremony – 1/2 hour
Congratulations/family & group shots – 1/2 hour
Wedding party / Bride & Groom shots – 1 hour
Travel time – 1 hour
Reception/arrival/cake cutting/first dance – 1 hour
Speeches/dancing/departure – 3 hours
TOTAL 8 hours

If I want beautiful photos, what is the best time for my wedding ceremony?

The most beautiful light for photography occurs in the last two hours before sunset. The last hour photographers refer to as THE GOLDEN HOUR.
As a guide for working out the best time for your ceremony I would say…
Look up the SUNSET TIME on the date you have chosen for your wedding – say it is 6.30 pm. Then SUBTRACT 2 HOURS = 4.30 pm ceremony time.
If we allow an hour for the ceremony and congratulations/group shots
We are now @ 5.30 pm. So then you have THE GOLDEN HOUR in which to shoot the Bride & Groom and or – the bridal party – and give yourself the best chance of getting THAT SPECIAL SHOT.

How long before I get my wedding photos?

Allow 2 weeks.
I will personally individually edit all your shots.
They will be presented on USB – in both screen (low) resolution for sharing
and print (high) resolution for printing.
All shots in colour with a special selection also in black &white.

How much communication should we expect?

I am always available for coffee 🙂
and by phone/email/text to answer any queries you may have about planning, timing, locations, venues, recommended providers & services etc.
We can discuss any ideas and preferences that you have for various
shots and styles and strategy for differing levels of comfort in front of a camera.

How many photos should I expect?

On average you can expect a minimum of 60 shots for each hour of coverage.
