Wedding Photography

Art VS Heart

 
 

So many wedding photographs are beautiful - and look like they could have been lifted out of a Vogue spread - but lack heart.

So many wedding photographs are emotive and full of feeling - but lack art.

I believe you should have both. You need both. Art and heart. Beauty and emotion.

You have put so much care and attention into your wedding. The people, the dress, the details. You’ve dreamed of this for a long time. You want to look beautiful. You want to feel beautiful.

But.

Something about nothing but endless portraits and detail shots doesn’t quite speak to you.

They look beautiful, but where is the heart? Where is the soul? Where is the story?

You want something refined but real. Luxury but full of life.

It’s here.

Cinematic wedding photography for those that want something beautiful and real.

Of course I will make you feel beautiful. Of course I will capture all the details you put so much intention and thought and effort towards.

But.

Your people and their beating hearts are the beating heart not just of your wedding day, but of your very lives.

I want you to look at your photos from your wedding and remember and realise all the beauty you have in your lives. For them to be a tangible reminder of all things and people you have to be grateful for.

And for them - and you - to look incredible.

Moments that could be yours.

Wedding photography inspired by cinema and forged in connection.

You aren’t paying someone to use a camera. You are paying someone to pay attention.

To figure out what’s most important to you - because no two weddings are the same.

And then preserve that as beautifully and honestly as they can.

Do you want your day captured beautifully and honestly?

Meet your photographer

Hi. I’m Dane. I can’t wait to tell your story.

In 2000 Dane was named Dux of his small suburban primary school. His mother was told ‘you look like you need a stiff drink’ she could so scarcely believe the news. Two decades passed without any achievement of note. These were dark years.

Then, in late 2021 Dane had a spontaneous return to form and was named one of the 30 Top Emerging Wedding Photographers on the planet by one of the photography industry’s leading publications based out of NYC.

But at the end of the day that doesn’t matter. Who I am doesn’t matter.

What I can do you for does.

What I can do is create art for you that is both outrageously beautiful and full of heart and life and soul and story.

And I can help you be present and have a raucously good time while we do it.

This is my promise to you.

FAQ

Some common questions, answered (largely) through previous couples reviews.

  • “My husband and I are two very awkward people, especially when put in front of a camera, but Dane turned what is usually a chore into a joy.”

    “We both believe he was the absolute best decision we made when planning our wedding. He made us feel so so comfortable, and had so many magic tricks up his sleeve to enable us to just relax and be ourselves.”

  • “Dane’s grace, dedication and kindness through the entire process, from the first meeting to delivering us our beautiful wedding album, is above and beyond.”

    “He is stealthy as heck and he has a heart of gold. He will befriend all your buddies and charm your mum.”

    “Dane's incredibly talented but the experience of having him at our wedding was actually the best part. He's totally lovely and has a calming presence.”

  • “Two years after our marriage and we are still raving about Dane to all our friends, new and old. Our photos are like movie stills. We feel so emotional looking at them every time.”

    “When he delivered our images, it was so clear that he really understood the brief. He captured so many candid moments we had no idea he was even there for. There were so many prints and were a beautiful mix of heart-warming, artistic, hilarious and unique.”

  • Sincerely unbiased advice - make sure when you look at their work, you feel something.

    This might sound trite, but if looking at images or video of complete strangers impacts you emotionally, makes you gasp in awe at the beauty, or simply makes you excited, this feeling will only be infinitely magnified when you are looking at work that highlights your story, your love, your people. You.

    If it makes you feel something - joy, wonder, aspiration, romance - that’s a sign.

    If it doesn't, that’s probably a sign too.
