I'm a true believer that wedding photography doesn't have to be boring, and I'm honoured to work with many couples who hold the same beliefs. I've made it my mission to produce meaningful and emotional imagery, but in a modern and creative way, far removed from the contrived stuffyness of traditional wedding photography.

I like pinacoladas, getting caught in the rain. Oh hang on, that's not me. I like fancy coffee, IPA, basketball, star wars, science fiction, the 1980s, dragons, unicorns and the great outdoors. Oh, and photography, that's cool too.

Hello, I'm Steve...

Meet the Family

This is us! We like to explore, make up silly dances in the kitchen and generally have fun together. Sally is the brains of the operation of course. She also runs our sister company, Smileomatic Photoboths.

It all started way back in the 80s. I would "borrow" my Dad's Canon AE-1 film camera for school trips and holidays and take a ton of really artistic (rubbish) photos. Sometimes I got lucky. Sometimes I spent all my pocket money on film and didn't get a single usable image. Fortunately, after a while, photoshop came along and I was able to learn how to fix my rubbish photography. I'd spend hours compositing images. In 1995 I photographed my friend's (Michelle and Ian) wedding with a manual Sunpak flash, a second hand sigma lens, a tin of tomatoes and 12 rolls of film. 17 years on and more than 600 weddings in, I count myself lucky to pay the bills doing something I love. My work has taken me across the globe and I've met many, many wonderful people along the way.
