Carly was magnificent. She photographed my wedding and she was so friendly which made it really easy to work with her. She made us feel really comfortable and really went above and beyond. I have recommended her to all my friends and family for their events. Plus our photos turned out absolutely perfect. Thanks Carly.

Hi, I'm Carly
I believe your wedding day should feel like yours
After more than 20 years photographing weddings across South Australia, I’ve learned that the moments people treasure most aren’t always the posed ones. It’s the glance across the room, the laugh that couldn’t be held back, the quiet moment before you walk in.
I work like a ninja – quietly moving through your day, noticing everything. When I do step in to guide you, I keep it gentle and unhurried, because your day should feel like a celebration, not a photoshoot.Â
Based in Brighton, I travel across Adelaide, the Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, Fleurieu Peninsula regions and beyond. I’d love to hear about your day.
You're in the right place if
This sounds like you
01
You want real, not staged
Authentic moments over stiff poses! You want your gallery to remind you of how the day actually felt – the tears, the laughter, the chaos and the calm. All of those sweet moments captured quietly.
02
You want to enjoy the day
Not spend two hours doing formals! I keep the group shots efficient so you can get back to your people. You’ll barely notice I’m there – until you see the gallery!
03
You value experience
Over 20 years means I’ve seen almost everything – and nothing rattles me. Lighting changes, schedule shifts, unexpected weather, crazy family members. I handle it all so you don’t have to! I’ll also guide you on posing so you know what to do should you feel a little awkward. And along the way I will share the shots so you can also see what we are capturing and what the backdrop looks like – so we can create even more beautiful images!
Where I love to shoot
A few of Adelaide's most beautiful wedding locations
Adelaide hills
Rolling hills, heritage buildings and misty mornings. The Hills are extraordinary in every season – but especially in autumn and winter.
McLaren Vale Wine Region
Vineyard ceremonies, golden hour light between the vines, cellar door receptions. This is South Australia at its most romantic.
coastal adelaide
Beachside ceremonies, jetty portraits and that unmistakeable golden sea light. The coast is where my heart is. From Port Elliot, Port Willunga back home to Brighton and down to Outer Harbour – the coast will always be one of my favourites.
adelaide city
Urban backdrops, architectural drama and unexpected pockets of beauty. From the grand facades of North Terrace to laneway portraits and rooftop golden hours, the city offers a sophistication that surprises people every time.
Wedding Photography Price Guide
Hi there,
I have included my pricing below and outlined what it includes. What you won’t see listed but are included in all of my photography packages are:
- A professional approach to managing your wedding photography and assistance on the day
- A calm and relaxed manner in which I bring to the day
- An organised lead up where we meet up, preferably in person to go over the days plan and work out photo ideas, itinerary and location preferences etc. I like to be on the same wavelength as my clients so they know on the day they can simply relax and it’s all taken care of for them.
- I’m happy to take some snaps on your phone during the bridal party shoot so you can share them with the world when you are ready!
- The openness to ask any questions you may have and requests you wish to fulfill.
- I also can guide you on any itinerary queries to help you organise the day and where you are best to allocate photography time etc.
- The number of photos below is a guide but I am likely to give you more than that!
- I happily work with other service providers, eg video people, wedding planners, on the day so we all get the same beautiful result you want!
It is my goal to ensure that you love your photos and I will work hard to create beautiful shots for you.
