Michael was absolutely incredible - the photos we received were of such high quality and really captured the essence of of wedding day! And we were very impressed with the quick turn around. But apart from all the stunning shots, it was his friendliness and ability to put us at ease that made our wedding day all that more enjoyable. Michael was great at accommodating all of our requests while having a keen eye for capturing the beauty of the venue. Highly recommend!

We recently had Michael do our wedding photography and couldn't be happier with everything!He not only captured amazing shots, but all of our guests loved him. He gelled so well with everyone at our wedding, he was super friendly, and what we really appreciate is that he had our preview photos to us by 7am the following morning after finishing at midnight!6 out of 5 stars for an amazing guy and amazing service!!

We hired Michael as our wedding photographer for April 2023 and WOW. We honestly could not have hoped for more. Michael was a pleasure to spend time with on the day and he is incredibly talented at what he does. Michael made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (not an easy thing to achieve with my husband) and we had a lot of fun during our portraits. Michael got the most stunning "sneak peak" gallery back to us in less than 24hrs and I am still in awe of what he has been able to capture. I can not recommend Michael highly enough.

We just had Michael shoot our wedding and are honestly blown away. He seriously went above and beyond to get incredible shots for us, and made us feel so comfortable for people who were very nervous about being in front of a camera. He got our photos back to us so so quickly and they are incredible. He captured so many candid moments without us even realising! Recommending him to everyone I know because we have the most magical photos to look back on because of him!!

Michael was the PERFECT guy for the job. Leading up to our scheduled day to shoot we had multiple changes in plans. We added an engagement shoot and extended family to the shoot and Michael was great about communicating throughout the whole process. Michael was personable with my whole giant family and not to mention --- took incredible pictures. My family could not have been more impressed from how they turned out. The photos and moments that Michael captured will always be so special! I highly recommend Michael for his high quality and artistic photos and reasonable rates!

Photos/ photographer was something I wanted to make sure were done properly as they are moments that last forever. Michael went above and beyond for our wedding. After receiving the sneak peak by midday the next day my partner and I were and still are in-love with our photos. We wanted someone who was funny yet professional and Michael was just that, we laughed with him and made jokes and still managed to get some absolutely amazing photos.Being photographed was something neither of us were looking forward to but Michael made it easy and the photos look so natural.I would give more stars if I could. He captured all parts of our wedding perfectly!

Michael is an incredible photographer. A friend from work showed me her wedding photos and I was stunned by her photos and asked who her photographer was; she told me that not only was Michael a great photographer but he was really lovely, and a pleasure to deal with. Fast forward to our wedding and we booked Michael immediately! He was an absolute pleasure to deal with from the very beginning. He listened to what we wanted, what was important to us on the day, and he delivered! He took such gorgeous pictures! Even though it was raining on the day, he made the most of every opportunity, he checked in with us to see if he was taking all the photos we wanted, and made us feel so comfortable in the process. If you’re researching a photographer for your wedding, choose Michael. He has an incredible eye, takes beautiful, high quality photos & was great at capturing key moments! Thank you Michael! Linda & Ollie ❤️

We had high hopes for our wedding photography and Michael still managed go beyond our expectations. Not only were our wedding photos beautiful, but we really enjoyed Michael’s company and the whole experience. My husband, who didn’t want to spend a whole lot of time getting portraits, described our portrait session after the ceremony as ‘heaps of fun’. Being a great photographer doesn’t rely solely on technical skill, but also the ability to make people feel at ease, a commitment to work tirelessly to capture moments artistically and unobtrusively, and finally investment in professional and quality equipment. Michael has all these things and is indeed an incredible photographer. We highly recommend him and will treasure our wedding photos forever.

Michael was so great, we couldn’t be happier with the final shots! He was super calm and managed to get really natural and relaxed pictures of us all… no easy job with two boys. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

We hired Michael for our wedding in March of 2022. Michael did such an excellent job, the photos are absolutely beautiful and we are beyond thrilled with how they turned out.Michael was so professional and friendly on the day, and made us and our bridal party feel very comfortable when he was taking all of our photos. Michael also made us feel like we were top priority the entire time and as if we were his most important clients.Thanks so much Michael for your incredible work!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael as our wedding photographer, Me and my husband could not recommend Michael enough! He not only made our day fun and relaxed but he also helped keep me calm as a storm started rolling through half hour before our outdoor ceremony and was on the weather radar keeping an eye on the storm and was spot on when saying it was going to be clear for the rest of the day, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.Our photo's are amazing and i can't stop looking at them. Our guests had nothing but good things to say about Michael and we are still getting compliments on how great he was.Thankyou Michael dor capturing our special day.

Michael recently did a photo shoot with me, my five year old son and our spoodle, Murphy. It was fantastic. Not only are the photos amazing, but the whole experience was easy and fun. In fact, my son has already asked when we can do another photo day with Michael! Michael is responsive and professional but also has a wonderful relaxed manner which helps make you to relax so that he is able to capture wonderful natural memories. Highly recommend. Thanks again Michael!

Michael took photos for our engagement shoot and it was a great experience in every aspect. Firstly, he was super profesional, talented and nice. My fiancé and I felt that the shoot was such a therapeutic experience: it really made us feel even closer and grateful for what we have... Michael knew how to guide us to pose, took us to some amazing places and waited for the perfect light to shoot. Then... he sent us the photos. I think I fell in love with every single photo he took. Perfect light, perfect colors and he caught the precise moments. Also, the platform he uses to send the photos is so easy and efficient. We downloaded our favorite ones in high resolution (which was so difficult to choose!!) and printed them. Thanks Michael, you are by far the best couple/family photographer!

Michael was honestly the best photographer to work with on our wedding day. I was able to tell him what we were after and he got everything spot on! We don’t like getting our photos taken and he made us feel so comfortable! We knew we were going to love his pictures but when we got them WOW!! He did such an amazing job and captured the day so well. I have no doubt in recommending him for anything! Thank you Michael!!!

Nailed it! We used Michael for our baby’s first birthday party and he captured so many great candid moments without ever being intrusive. I have also worked with Michael on corporate events and would highly recommend him in either scenario. Thanks again!

Rod and I can not recommend Michael highly enough. Michael recently photographed our wedding day and the photos and slideshow are breathtaking. He capture our day and night without being obtrusive. Many of our guests commented on what a wonderful photographer Michael was. I would certainly use him again and unreservedly recommend him to anyone.

We were so incredibly happy with our wedding photography from Michael. They were natural photos, capturing real events not posed so we didn’t miss a moment. Michael was so professional and plenty of fun to work with. Would definitely recommend!
Welcome to my Illawarra Wedding Photography Portfolio page – here you will find real weddings from start to finish. Let me show how I shoot the entire day. Not just the portrait sessions.
I like to keep my style of photography natural. So don’t worry I wont make stand in awkward poses, or make you smile at the camera all day. On the other hand promote you both to engage with each other, to get those real intimate & happy moments.
Also I don’t just service the Illawarra area, I’m happy to travel anywhere – I love mixing it up and scouting new locations.
