NEWCASTLE & HUNTER VALLEY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER SINCE 2010

I'm Ben. I learn what makes your wedding unique and capture that, with silent cameras and over 490 weddings of experience. I photograph all weddings - whatever style, size, culture or gender. I'm ready to handle whatever your wedding can throw at me!

I know how to bring out the best in you, even for the most camera-shy of couples. I value your time - I get the shots we need quickly, so you get back to the party. No repeating moments or fake laughs here - enjoy your day and I will be ready. Most guests think I'm an old friend of the couple and that's exactly it will feel.
Hunter Valley Wedding Photographer
Many couples say I was the best decision they made when planning their wedding. Here's why.

THE MOMENTS MAN

A nickname gifted to me by a celebrant, and one I'll gladly take. I am always in the right place at the right time, and with silent cameras you'll never even realise until you see the final gallery. I have a knack for blending in and capturing the moments that others miss.

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING

I've dedicated my entire working life to photography, I obsess over it. I'm the type of guy who gets a new camera and reads the manual front to back to make sure I haven't missed anything. I educate myself on every technicality, I spend the money on the finest equipment. I take the time to polish every single image before it gets delivered.

ABOVE AND BEYOND

Time is the most valuable currency at a wedding, so I make use of every minute. I don't take breaks or film content for my socials. I'll help dry off your bouquet, pin your boutonniere, drive you around for sunset, fetch you a drink and do anything else I can that helps improve your day. Images are backed up from the moment of capture and many times more once your day is complete. I carry insurance, I bring backup equipment, I provide pricing upfront so there are no nasty surprises. I do everything I can to make sure that you always get more than you pay for.

TIMELESS TONES

My editing style with natural colours is consistent - no weird blur or crooked horizons. Trends come and go, but with me your images remain gorgeous in decades to come. I have images in my portfolio from as far back as 2012, which blend seamlessly with those from today.
