Couples
Illawarra, Wollongong & South Coast photographer for weddings, engagements and couples’ portraits
A couples shoot is a great way to reconnect with your partner. Weddings are amazing and I love them, but an engagement or anniversary session is so much more relaxed and low-key. We always have a lot of fun, and quite often walk away with our bellies hurting from laughter!
I run these photo sessions much like the location shoot on a wedding day… we go and explore an epic location, and allow you to be yourselves. I’m happy to provide a bit of direction where it’s needed, but otherwise you just be you… and together we’ll create some genuine moments.
F$#@in’ Awesome Questions!
The process
If you’ve decided to join me for an Engagement shoot, then this will be an awesome practice run for you wedding.
If you’re thinking about an Anniversary shoot, chances are good that we’ve worked together at your wedding (and maybe had an e-shoot too!)…
Either way, the process is much the same, and always a lot of fun .
- We’ll choose a location based on either your suggestion of a favourite, meaningful spot, or an epic location I will suggest.
Compared to a wedding, timing is much more flexible. This means we can meet at the Golden Hour just before sunset, and bask in the soft, sublime golden light!
If you’re morning people, then sunrise is just as good too .
- On the day of the shoot, I highly recommend taking some time before we meet to reconnect with each other, and remember why you’re doing this.
One suggestion is to treat yourselves to a mini-date for a bite to eat or a drink at one of your favourite spots… and this way you won’t get hangry during the shoot .
File delivery
- A day or two after our session, I like to pop a few cheeky previews up on Facebook and Instagram and tag you both, so any friends and family can get a preview.
- Within 3 weeks your photos will be ready! I’ll send you a link to your gorgeous online gallery, where you can download and share your photos super easily.
Printing your photos - Albums and Wall Art
- I honestly don’t consider my job done until you have at least one of your photos printed!! Digital is awesome, but nothing beats holding a physical album, or seeing a framed print on your wall.
- All the printed products I supply are of the highest quality, and designed to last a lifetime. And of course you’ll receive all your files in high resolution, print ready JPGs, so you can organise prints yourself too.
What's included?
- Me as your photographer! We’ll spend roughly an hour together exploring, laughing, and making some amazing images together.
- Edited, high resolution (i.e. print ready) JPG images from your session. These are the same files I send to my printer.
- Files delivered to you in a beautiful online gallery. You can download and share your photos super easily from here.
- Easy, online print ordering included through the gallery.
Depending on the package you choose, the following items are either included, or available as optional extras:
- Amazing hand-crafted albums, which are so luxurious… don’t feel weird if I keep asking you to touch one!
- A variety of styles of wall art, once again printed and mounted with the utmost love and attention to detail.
