Meet Daniel
Hi there! I’m Daniel (or Dan).
I’ve been shooting weddings for over 4 years, all across Victoria, and was voted by couples as the best wedding photographer and videographer in Ballarat & Bendigo in 2024 and 2026 at the Wedding Industry Awards.
I decided to go all-in on this path in 2018, studying filmmaking at the New York Film Academy on the Gold Coast. I captured my first ever wedding for my cousin in Wye River; and quickly found myself fully booked for the following year!
Whether you prefer a hands-off approach or a bit more direction, I’ll keep things relaxed and comfortable so you can focus on enjoying your wedding day while I capture all the love and fun in a way that feels natural, authentic, and uniquely you.
You can check out our photos and wedding films below; and hear from past couples. All pricing is available right here on the website where you can go ahead and create your package, check availability, and book online.

We Care — We know how much thought you’ve put into your day, and we put just as much care into capturing it. From the little details and intimate moments to crafting a final gallery and film that feels uniquely you, we’re there to preserve not just how your day looked, but how it felt.
Our Approach — You’ll love our relaxed, guided-documentary approach. We focus on genuine moments over forced ones. We know when to step in with some light direction, and when to simply let the momemt breathe.
Awards — We have officially been voted by couples as the best wedding photographer and videographer in Ballarat & Bendigo in both 2024 and 2026 at the Wedding Industry Awards!
All-in-One — If you choose both photography and videography, you’ll have the added advantage of a photo + video team that already knows how to work seamlessly together! It also means one less supplier to coordinate throughout your planning.

While we'll work with your personlised timeline and specific requests, here's what we're typically doing throughout the day:
Through it all, we’re constantly looking for the candid moments happening around you—the laughs, reactions, hugs and little interactions you might not even notice on the day.
Getting ReadyWhen we arrive, we'll usually start with some of the little details you’ve put so much thought into (e.g. your dress or suit, rings, shoes, flowers, invitations and anything else meaningful).
From there, we’ll capture everyone getting ready, whether that’s popping some champagne in your robes, the guys suiting up, or your bridesmaids helping with the finishing touches.
Once everyone’s suited up, this is also a great time to grab a few portraits for the mantelpiece before we head off!
Note: We cover one getting-ready location at a time (e.g. groom then bride).
CeremonyWe’ll arrive at your ceremony around an hour before it starts, giving us plenty of time to get everything set up (cameras and audio), capture the details and atmosphere, and be ready for your arrival.
During the ceremony, we’ll discreetly move around to cover everything from multiple angles without getting in the way.
After the ceremony, we’ll hang back and capture all the hugs, kisses and congratulations!
If you’d like a big group photo, this is usually the ideal time for it.
PortraitsFrom there, we’ll usually move into family, bridal party, and couple portraits. We keep family photos organised and relatively quick, have a bit more fun with the bridal party, then give you some time together for your couple portraits—with a few prompts to bring out those genuine moments!
ReceptionOnce we arrive at your reception, we’ll get set up to capture your formalities—from your reception entrance and your speeches to the cake cutting, bouqet toss, first dance and any other surprises or events you've planned!
Around sunset, we might steal you away for a few more photos and videos, giving you a different look and feel from your earlier portraits!
Once the dance floor opens, we’re right in there with you capturing all the chaos!
After booking, you'll receive our detailed sample wedding timeline guide to help make the most of your coverage. -
Don’t worry, this is super common! Most of our couples don’t have much experience in front of the camera. We'll help you feel relaxed, with our prompts and direction designed to bring out genuine moments, interaction, and lots of laughter!
-
Yes! If you book both photography + videography, you’ll have Dan and his partner, Rachael, there to capture your day together. Having two of us allows us to capture both photography and videography seamlessly, without compromising either.
-
We recommend booking at least 12 months in advance for the best chance of availability.
However, we can also accomodate shorter timeframes (subject to availability).
-
While we don’t require a meeting, we’re more than happy to have a chat and answer any questions you might have!
We've designed our whole process to be as simple as possible. You can check our live availability, view pricing and book online without waiting around for quotes or meetings.
Once booked, your completed questionnaire and wedding day timeline give us everything we need to prepare for the day.
Of course, we're always here if you need some extra help along the way!
-
Absolutely! You’ll have the option to make changes up until your wedding day—so don’t worry if you’re not 100% sure what you need yet.
Just keep in mind that some options require a little extra planning (eg. adding videography to your photography package) and certain upgrades may not be available once editing begins.
-
We source the music for your wedding film from premium licensing sites like MusicBed.com. You’re welcome to browse this site and send us the link to anything you like!
However, most couples prefer to leave this step up to us so that we can pick something that best suits your footage, overall vibe of the day, and the vision for your edit.
Typically, one slower romantic song works best for your vows and the first half of the film, followed by something fun and upbeat for the celebrations.
