Hi, I'm James


talking about myself gives me the ick so I'll keep it short


I'm 38, Husband & Father, Nerd. Introverted Extrovert. Average Golfer. Metal head. I like long walks in the mountains, dungeons & dragons, pink donuts & I have the best job in the world.


If you're after someone to capture traditional, cookie-cutter wedding photos, I might not be your guy. Each wedding holds its own energy, and every couple brings their own vibe. Therefore, your photos deserve to mirror that.


If it's The Blue Mountains, Southern Highlands & Greater Sydney & you're loving the vibe of this here website and photos throughout.

"We cannot recommend James enough and so many guests at our wedding have already said they would lock him in for their future weddings. From our first interaction with James we felt entirely at ease, he is helpful, courteous and gave great direction for both our pre-wedding and wedding shoots. He is a terrific communicator, answering all our queries and being a generally very relaxed and easy to speak to individual.


He is obviously very passionate about photography, and it damn shows in the results. The photos James takes are spectacular and clearly someone practiced at their work. James captured all the beautiful and exciting moments on a very long wedding day and we couldn't be happier with the result. We will always be grateful to James for going beyond our expectations and giving us those moments we will forever cherish"

Each wedding is different, a series of moments waiting to be captured. I approach each day with fresh eyes, attuned to the interplay of light, composition, and the landscapes. While I do lean toward the moody vibes. smiles are still my favourite.

The best decision I’ve ever made in my life was to say “yes” when my husband asked me to marry him. The second best decision I’ve ever made in my life was to have James as our wedding photographer. I don’t need to tell you how incredible his photos are. If you’re reading this, you can see. But what you can’t see is how much his presence impacted our day. James has a way of instantly feeling like an old friend I’ve known my entire life. I, like many brides, was stressed on our day and James just had a way of calming the room and reminding me to take the time to enjoy the little moments. He went above and beyond to not blend into the background, but feel like part of the family and I truely feel this is how he is able to capture the day in such an emotional way. I’m grateful for his photos but also grateful for his presence at our wedding. We love you man!

James shot our wedding like he was holding a backstage pass for an Alice Cooper gig. The motion and emotion was captured more beautifully and authentically than we ever could have conceived! We look at our photos now and are instantly transported back to that day. Raw, intense imagery bursting with soul.Combine that with the dude being an absolute legend.


You won’t have to worry about missing a moment - trust me he got it. You don’t want cookie cutter “candid” photos. You DO want James to shoot your wedding

After watching you work your magic at a previous wedding, you were the vendor we knew we needed before we even started the plannig process. You supported us through the planning process, ensuring our timeline was set up for success and we had a focus on the time we had together on the day. No request was to big, and you helped keep us calm when we had some issues on the day. Our bridal paty had the best time with you, making photos a fun and easy experience. You made sure to capture little details and moments that were important to us, by making us know they were a priority to you, along with the best times for how we can enjoy the day as a coule. Then to have the amount of photos in our highlight album the next day that we got, blew us away. They were the best summary of the day, and captured it all so perfectly. The quality and care you take in your work speaks volumes and shows in the photos you produce, and honestly made our day! Thank you will never be enough for what you have done for us!
