Wedding photos to make you feel safe, seen and celebrated.
just imagine...when your wedding is over
you will...
you will...
- be married to your best friend
- have a lifetime of memories
- own a collection of stunning photos to share, print and treasure for years to come
But first, you need a photographer who…
- knows the most important moments to capture (hint, it's not the first kiss)
- will make you look and feel relaxed AF by turning your “awkward” into “authentic”
- will celebrate and affirm your relationship for all of its unique beauty
Honestly, I am STOKED that you are here and reading this.
Why?
Because it means you're doing your research to find a photographer you love and trust.
I know you don't have time to muck around, so let me give you my one piece of advice to decide if we're a good fit: hire people you vibe with.
Chemistry, values and a sense of humour are going to be more important than simply “has camera, takes photos.”
If you want someone who will make you feel safe, seen and celebrated on your wedding day, then I am your person.
I can't wait to meet you!

SYDNEY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
"Hank made us feel comfortable and subtly took the lead at different times (much to our relief as we had no idea about what goes into getting the perfect shot!).
So many of our friends have commented on how perfectly shot the photos were for the occasion, and that you can feel how happy the day was from the images.
Some great memories we will cherish forever."

Frequently asked questions
How would you describe your style?
The last thing you need is for someone to take tacky, artificial photos of your wedding. I try my best to capture the intimate, "in-between" moments of you and your best friend.
If you're reading this, you've probably already got a good sense of my vibe. I will give you prompts to help shake the nerves, stay fully immersed with your lover, and forget that I'm even there.
We’re not having a wedding in Sydney. Do you travel?
Yes! I regularly travel to various destinations around New South Wales and ACT for weddings. Send me more information on your destination plans, and I will create a custom photography package to suit your needs.
We’re pretty awkward in front of the camera. Will you take cheesy photos of us that are posed and fake-looking?
No. I can’t think of anything worse. Instead, I focus on building an immersive photography experience so that you feel relaxed and look amazing!
Do we have to order a fine art wedding album?
Not at all! However, I absolutely believe that fine art albums are the best item to compliment your beautiful wedding photos and to tell the story of your special day. I give all of my clients the opportunity to purchase their wedding albums at a significant discount if ordered before the wedding day.
Is it Henry or Hank?
Sometimes Henry feels a little too formal, so I’d love for you to call me Hank.
