How It Works
How We Handle Your Photography & Film
A Northern Beaches wedding has its own pace, from planning around coastal locations and ceremony timings to making the most of the day itself. Our process keeps things organised without making the experience feel complicated, with clear communication from the first enquiry through to the final gallery and films.
-
Enquiry
It starts with a simple enquiry. Whether you find us through our website or social media, or get in touch by phone or email, we ask for a few details about your Northern Beaches wedding so we can understand what you’re planning and check our availability.
-
Consultation
Once we know a little more, we arrange a consultation to talk through your plans. We discuss your venue, ceremony, timeline, photography preferences and the kind of coverage you’re looking for, then recommend a package that fits your day.
-
Booking & Confirmation
When you’ve decided on your package, we send through the booking proposal, contract, and invoice. Your date is officially secured once the booking fee has been paid, giving you one less thing to keep track of as the rest of the planning comes together.
-
Wedding Planning
As the day gets closer, we work through the practical details with you. This can include your photography timeline, portrait locations around the Northern Beaches, the family photo lists and coordination with other vendors, helping everyone stay on the same page.
-
Wedding Day Coverage
When the day arrives, our photography and cinematography team takes care of the coverage while you get on with the wedding. From getting ready and the ceremony to portraits, speeches, the reception, and the celebrations afterwards, we work around the flow of the day rather than interrupting it.
-
Editing
After the wedding, the work continues behind the scenes. Your photographs are individually edited and colour graded, while the footage is carefully edited into your chosen wedding films, bringing together the parts of the day that work best in each format.
-
Sneak Peeks
Before the full gallery is ready, you’ll receive a selection of sneak peek images from your wedding. They’re an early look at the photographs from the day and can be shared with family and friends while the rest of your gallery is being completed.
-
Gallery & Film Delivery
Once everything is finished, your high-resolution photographs and wedding films are delivered through an online gallery. You can view, download, and share your images and films from one place, with the complete collection ready to return to whenever you want.
