Gold Coast & Tweed Heads Wedding & Elopement Photographer
Relaxed, real, and beautiful storytelling for couples from Byron Bay to Brisbane.
The way I photograph love?
It’s probably not what you’re used to.
I’m not the photographer who turns up and takes over. I won’t make your day about me, I won’t bark instructions, and I definitely won’t be the loudest person in the room.
What I will do is be there - present, calm, and quietly tuned into every part of your day. I’ll see the little things happening in the background, the sideways glances, the inside jokes, the tears that no one else notices. I’ll guide you gently when you need it, and blend into the moment when you don’t. Most of the time, it just feels like having a couple of extra friends there who happen to be holding cameras.
We care deeply about the people we photograph. We feel part of it all, not just standing on the outside taking pictures of it. And that shows in every image.
What I photograph
I photograph everything from intimate 2-hour elopements to full-day weddings - capturing moments with soul, from Byron to Brisbane. My focus is always on connection over perfection. Whether it’s a quiet registry signing, an anniversary shoot, or an engagement session that kicks off your story, it all matters. I’m here for the real stuff: the sideways glances, the teary smiles, the in-between moments. The kind of love that deserves to be remembered just as it felt.
Not quite sure what kind of session fits your story best.
I’m here for chats, questions, and helping you figure it out, no pressure at all.
The experience
We’ll talk through what matters most to you - whether that’s the epic portrait at golden hour, the quiet moment with your grandparents, or just making sure someone captures the chaos of the dance floor.
I’ll help you plan the details, so on the day you can let go and actually enjoy it. You’ll never be left wondering what to do. I’ll gently guide you into relaxed positions that feel right for you - no weird poses or cheesy prompts.
And once the cake’s been eaten and the dress is a little dusty, you’ll have a full online gallery of beautifully edited images to relive it all - the big and small, the bold and quiet. The parts you remember, and the parts you didn’t see coming.
What’s included
All wedding packages include two photographers - because having two sets of eyes means you won’t miss a thing. While one of us is capturing the main moment, the other is finding the magic on the edges. (Elopements and engagement sessions are photographed solo unless otherwise arranged.)
You’ll receive a full gallery of high-resolution images, delivered in a private online gallery. You’re free to download, share, print, and revisit your day anytime you like - no hidden extras, no hard sell.
Whether you’re planning a full-day celebration or something a little more intimate, there’s a package that’ll fit you just right.
Elopement-style coverage starts at $1,200 for two hours - perfect for smaller ceremonies or registry weddings with just the two of you (and maybe a few people you love). This package includes one photographer (that’s me!) and all the same care and connection I bring to every wedding.
Need more time?
I also offer 4-hour, 6-hour, and full-day wedding coverage, all with two photographers (myself and Michael) so nothing gets missed - from the quiet getting-ready moments to the chaos on the dance floor.
You can also add an engagement session (starting at $490), which is a beautiful way to get comfortable in front of the camera (and have some extra photos for your invites or wedding website!).
Why choose Wonderland Photography?
Because I photograph people the way I’d want to be photographed - softly, honestly, without all the ego. Yes, you want beautiful, professional photos. But more than that? You want to feel seen.
I work with couples who want something real - who are done with overdone. Whether it’s a quiet weekday elopement or a full wedding with all your people, I’ll be there, quietly cheering you on while capturing it all.
