South coast wedding photographer for Wollongong, Illawarra & Southern Highlands

Wherever you like! I’ve created a Locations Guide for Wollongong and surrounds in case you want some prompting of ideas! Your home or yard is a great way to document life as it is, and bring a sense of nostalgia when you look back through the photos in years to come.

Anywhere more than 30 mins drive from Wollongong will incur a travel fee.

Yes! I love to travel.

It will incur an additional travel fee based on how far it is from Wollongong, so make sure you include location in your enquiry so I can include travel considerations in the quote.

To make the wardrobe situation as smooth and painless as possible, I’ve put together a Styling Guide with some helpful tips and tricks. Enjoy!

There is also the option to utilise Sole Adrift Photography’s client Wardrobe (no cost) which includes a variety of carefully selected dresses for adult women. You can review these once you’ve booked a session with me.

I know how excited you get after a session, and the suspense that follows whilst waiting to see your images. I treat your gallery like the gold it is, and give your photos the love and care they deserve. The turn around time for the digital delivery of your album is generally between 4-5 weeks for couples and families, between up to 10 weeks for weddings.

Communication is super important to me so you’ll hear back within 1 business day with package investments and available dates. If you’d like to move forward with a booking, you can secure your preferred date once your retainer has been received. The retainer is $200 for a family/couple session, and $500 for a wedding.

If you don’t see an email from me, check your junk mail- sometimes this is where they land!

All photos are delivered digitally in an online gallery so you can download straight to your personal hard drive. You have the choice to share this link with loved ones as well. Your images come are in high resolution format for printing and also optimal web resolution format so you can post to social media.

This digital format allows you the freedom to select the photos you like best and customise their size to fit your wall frames.

I recommend ordering your prints at Photomart Barrack Heights for high quality prints. Fine art paper and Cotton Photo Rag are look great in frames!

Some of my wedding packages include a an engraved wooden keepsake box with a few prints and USB.

RAW images are the original, unedited images taken on the camera. I do NOT provide RAW images to clients under any circumstances.

Don’t stress, I get this all the time! It’s so normal for people to feel a bit strange having photos taken. To combat this, I always start with some icebreaker activities during our session to help warm you up and relax a little. My goal is to shoot predominantly candid photos, so I only provide gentle guidance around posing. There’s no pressure to look at the camera either, your partner only has to look at you and be present in the moment. Worst (and best) case scenario bring along a sneaky beverage if it helps take the edge off.

I use Lightroom Classic for all my editing.

I aim to keep photos as close to reality as possible so only make gentle changes including basic blemish removal and skin smoothing, and altering of the colours and lighting.

I do not edit body shape or alter facial features.

Whilst I strive to have consistently across all my photos, this isn’t possible due to differences in weather, location, timing of day etc. With this in mind, I edit photos to reflect what it FELT like to be there in the moment they were taken.

Your privacy is important to me, and your photos will not be shared without your consent.

Some people are comfortable with their photo out in the world, some people aren’t- both option are totally fine and the decision is completely up to you!
