Contented by Rose

I’ve been photographing weddings since 2010, and have photographed over 600 amazing weddings. I absolutely love what I do and the passion for capturing people’s wedding day has only grown for me over time. It’s a real privilege to be part of such a special day.

Yes! I will be the photographer on your special day, from start to finish, not someone you haven’t met before.

Every wedding is different but in general 8-9 hours is great to cover everything from getting ready to some party action, or 5-6 hours if you don’t want the getting ready.

Yes! I love albums and I think they are the best way to show off your amazing wedding day. Read all about my love for albums and how they come together over on the blog here:Wedding Albums

No, none at all. All GST and costs are included in your package price including up to 350km travel from Sydney CBD. If you’d like to purchase additional prints or albums you can do that through a personalised online store.

In sydney?The Langham- a really beautiful hotel with the biggest rooms in Sydney, wonderful textures and natural light. Otherwise a good air bnb with lots of natural light always works :)

28 days is the longest you will wait (except for Christmas/NY times which will extend by 10 days). I’ll send through a link to a password protected online gallery and your personalised online store where you can order prints

Based in Crows Nest in Sydney. Happy to travel anywhere, and I try to keep these costs as low as possible. Travel within 300km is included in the package price.

Yes, all of the packages include high resolution artistically edited and processed photographs. You receive all images from your wedding day and there is no limit to the number that I shoot - you usually receive about 100 images per hour of photography so in general for an 8 hour day about 800 photographs. All images are yours to print how you wish :)

As averyrough guide:

Yes, I’m a little over paranoid about back ups but better more than not enough, right? I always have two cameras, with each camera recording the exact same image to two memory cards incase one card fails. As well as that I carry 5 or so lenses and multiple flashes.Once I get your photographs back to the office they are backed up immediately to:1: An encrypted cloud storage service (overnight, completed by morning)2: My main hard drive3: A second, seperate back up hard drive So failing a nuclear apocalypse I think we’re good :)

I’m very relaxed by nature and this comes through in my work. I like to make sure that you and your friends and family are having as much fun as possible - because when you’re having fun I’m getting great shots. I for sure give some direction to place people in the best light and the most flattering position. But I love to keep direction to a minimum, I feel the more someone is “posed” the more uncomfortable they are so instead rely on great humour and having a good time :)

Short answer: Usually not but sometimes yesLong answer: I photograph the majority of weddings on my own (around 85%), However, sometimes due to timing restrictions or number of guests (over 150) I recommend a second photographer. It can also be great to get a second perspective or to capture canapé hour and your reception room set up while off getting your portraits

Yes $20mill public liability

As soon as you’ve locked in your date you should lock in suppliers who are most important for your wedding day. Celebrants, video, photo, hair and makeup, florals etc. I am offering less days next year than ever before (see table below) so would suggest booking as far in advance as you can. I offer amaximumof two weddings per week up to a maximum of55 per year.
