We arrived in Tamworth one day prior to meet the couple and spend a little time with their family. While Steph and Scott were rehearsing their ceremony with the priest, a few amazing moments were born. Needless to say, the small interviews we had with them resulted in some touching memories caught on camera.
There’s nothing like the slow-paced countryside, the vastness, and the heart of Australia. It’s an atmosphere you can feel, people you want to spend time with.
"... My advice to them as they embark on this beautiful journey called marriage is to never sweat the small stuff. Life will throw curve balls, but remember it's the home runs that count...(Best Man)"

Our background is in documentary filmmaking, where we've refined our skills in capturing stories that resonate. We have a skill for finding those heartwarming, authentic moments that tell the true story of your relationship.
Our films are all about balance, capturing the rhythm of your day, ensuring every memory is cherished by intertwining narratives of those closest to you with visual storytelling. It's a film crafted not just for a one-time viewing, but for countless revisits
" WHAT WE DO"
Our signature is to create something deeper than a standard wedding video. To achieve this, we have a method in place that allows us to nail it every single time. In simple terms, without giving away our secret sauce, we meet with you before the big day and let the camera roll. This could be during your engagement photoshoot, a family gathering, or the day before your wedding, when everyone you love is nearby and emotions are running high. However, we also create stunning films focused solely on the day of the wedding.
" PHOTOGRAPHY"
Rest assured, you're in good hands. It's particularly beneficial to have both photography and filming services especially when we meet multiple times. For instance, during your engagement photoshoot, we can also conduct brief interviews. This streamlined approach means you only need to coordinate with one vendor—us.
We collaborate closely with Anna Murray Photography. Feel free to explore their work. However, you're welcome to choose another photographer for your special day.
