Question 7

Can we get married at Newcastle Ocean Baths or Nobbys Beach?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Newcastle Ocean Baths, Nobbys Beach and King Edward Park are stunning coastal ceremony locations. Most Newcastle beaches and ocean baths are managed by City of Newcastle and require a simple event permit for a ceremony.

Question 8

What is the best time of day for wedding photos in the Hunter Valley?

Accepted Answer

Golden hour — the last 60 to 90 minutes before sunset — produces the soft, warm light that vineyard weddings are famous for. In the Hunter Valley this is roughly 5:30pm in winter and 7:45pm in summer.

Question 9

What happens if it rains on our Newcastle wedding day?

Accepted Answer

Rain is never a problem — some of the most cinematic images come from stormy Newcastle coastlines and moody vineyard skies. We scout covered alternatives like heritage verandas, cellars and the Cathedral of Nature at Hunter Valley Gardens, and bring clear umbrellas.

Question 10

Do you photograph elopements and small weddings in Port Stephens?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Port Stephens — from Birubi Beach and Anna Bay to Nelson Bay and Shoal Bay — is a favourite elopement location. The Elopement Style package (3 hours, from $995) suits intimate ceremonies and beach elopements across the Port Stephens coastline.

Question 11

How many wedding photos do we receive?

Accepted Answer

Every couple receives a curated online gallery of fully edited, high-resolution images — from around 60 highlight edits in the Elopement package through to 600+ images in the all-day packages, with print rights for personal use.

Question 12

Do you offer wedding albums and prints?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Contemporary and Swish packages include a premium fine-art wedding album, and every package offers optional canvas prints and parent albums, professionally designed and printed on archival paper.
