A destination wedding photographer who uses an “as it happens” approach

My relaxed and natural style of photography captures spontaneous moments as they happen, rather than posing for formal shots. My approach is unobtrusive and relaxed, making sure that you and your guests are at ease whilst I capture the moments of love, laughter and joy that make your day so special.

Capturing sincere emotions and raw moments through the lens of a camera is both a passion and a privilege for me. In my previous work as a photojournalist, I’ve captured some of the most powerful stories from around the world. Now, my attention has turned to couples looking to capture their own special story.

Working as a Sydney wedding photographer is a job that requires constant evolution, learning, and adapting – skills that I have honed from my years of experience. From understanding the best lighting and angles to knowing where to be at the right time, I’m here to ensure that your wedding photography is unique and unforgettable.

A Lifetime Behind the Lens – Telling Love Stories with Soul

Photography has never been just a job for me — it’s in my bones. I’ve been a photographer for as long as I can remember, and it’s been my sole trade since childhood. My passion for storytelling began in the darkroom and evolved into a lifelong career capturing real, raw moments. From my early days as a photojournalist to now as a full-time wedding photographer, I’ve always believed the best images are the ones that make you feel something.

Hunter Valley Wedding Photographer with a Photojournalistic Twist

After 15 years working as a photojournalist, I bring a candid, documentary-style approach to every wedding I shoot. I’m not into stiff poses or forced smiles — I want your photos to feel like you. Whether it’s a sunset vineyard ceremony in the Hunter Valley or a city celebration in the heart of Sydney, my goal is to tell your story in a way that’s natural, authentic, and full of life. Being a Hunter Valley wedding photographer means I get to work in one of the most stunning backdrops in Australia — and I never take that for granted.

Real Moments, Real People — No Awkward Posing Here

Let’s be real: no one wants to feel like they’re on a weird photoshoot on their wedding day. I pride myself on making people feel relaxed, confident, and totally themselves in front of the camera. I know how to read the room, crack a well-timed joke, and get even the shyest couple laughing. My clients often say it’s like having an old friend with a camera by their side — one who just happens to take killer photos.

Bringing the Fun, Keeping It Real

Your wedding day should be a blast — and I bring the energy to match. I’m not just there to take photos, I’m there to hype you up, keep the vibe flowing, and make sure you’re having an unforgettable time. That genuine energy translates into photos that show real joy, connection, and all the little moments in between. Because great wedding photography isn’t just about pretty pictures — it’s about capturing how it felt to be there.

Destination Wedding Photographer — From Sydney to the Hunter Valley and Beyond

While I absolutely love the relaxed elegance of Hunter Valley weddings — think rolling vineyards, golden hour light, and champagne toasts under the stars — I also shoot weddings all across Sydney and beyond. From coastal escapes to chic city venues, I thrive on the variety and the chance to meet incredible people from all walks of life. Every couple, every love story is different, and that’s what keeps me inspired.

Photos That Reflect You — Your Vibe, Your Connection, Your Story

At the heart of it all, I want you to feel something when you look at your wedding photos. They should reflect your connection, your vibe, and the unique energy between you and your partner. Whether you’re planning a luxe Hunter Valley wedding or an intimate celebration in Sydney, I’ll be there to capture it all — the big moments and the in-between magic.

Let’s Create Something Real Together

If you’re after a wedding photographer who’s equal parts professional and party-starter — someone who’ll make you laugh, feel comfortable, and walk away with incredible photos that feel like you — I’d love to be part of your day. Let’s chat and start planning how together, we will tell your story, your way.

It was an absolute privilege to have Daniel as our wedding photographer. The photos are exactly what we hoped for. Daniel was a breeze to work with and captured all the big moments and all the tiny details for us to remember forever. He even went above and beyond when we asked for his help to find a content creator the night before our wedding. As a retired wedding photographer myself, I can confidently say you are in great hands with Daniel! Thank you so much for being part of our day. Much Love Belinda and Rob 🌴💝

We hired Daniel for our wedding photography and we were absolutely overjoyed with the whole experience and end results in the photos.He had a calm yet enthusiastic approach during the whole day which was a relief with what could have been a very stressful day.Guiding us with great professionalism, we were relaxed the whole time in his very experienced hands and we never felt staged or awkward. This transferred through to the effortless photos that we received and choosing our favourite has been impossible!We have already been asked by all the guests at the wedding after receiving the album, for Daniel’s details to keep for their next occasion and we can’t recommend him enough!
