Hi, I’m Madds – a Queensland wedding photographer capturing celebrations with an editorial eye and a documentary heart.

I photograph weddings throughout Australia and abroad. For me, wedding photography has never been about perfectly posed photographs. It’s about preserving a feeling and the moments you’ll want to return to years from now.

Your grandparents watching from across the room. Champagne spilling onto the dance floor. Windswept veils. And the little moments that somehow become your favourites without you even realising.

My approach is relaxed, intentional and deeply personal. I’ll gently guide you when you need direction and quietly step back when you don’t. That gives you the space to be fully present and experience your wedding, while I capture it with honesty and care.

I find inspiration everywhere – from beautiful architecture and thoughtful styling to natural light and genuine connection. As a Queensland wedding photographer, I’m lucky to capture celebrations in some incredible places, but I also love travelling throughout Australia and abroad.

Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering by the coast, a sprawling country estate or a destination wedding further afield, my goal is always the same. I want to create timeless imagery that feels elegant, effortless and unmistakably yours.

If you’re dreaming of photographs that bring you back to exactly how your wedding felt – not just how it looked – I would absolutely love to tell your story.

FAQ

How would you describe your photography style?

Timeless, romantic and refined.
My style sits somewhere between documentary storytelling and editorial imagery. I love creating beautifully composed photographs, but never at the expense of genuine emotion. My focus is on preserving the real moments, meaningful connections and thoughtful details that make your wedding uniquely yours.
The result feels elegant and effortless, with photographs you’ll love just as much decades from now.

What type of weddings do you photograph?

I photograph weddings of all sizes, but I’m especially drawn to celebrations where every detail has been thoughtfully considered. That might be a heritage estate, an architecturally designed venue, a private property, luxury resort or destination celebration. I find inspiration in architecture, fashion, natural light and timeless design. Above all, I want to preserve the atmosphere, emotion and thoughtful details that make your day uniquely yours.

Will you help us feel comfortable in front of the camera?

Absolutely. In fact, it’s one of the things I’m known for.
Almost every couple tells me they’re nervous about being photographed, and honestly, that’s completely normal. I’m not there to make you pose all day. I want you to feel relaxed enough to simply enjoy being together. I’ll gently guide you when you need direction and step back when moments unfold naturally. One of the biggest compliments I receive is hearing couples say they forgot they were even being photographed. That’s always my goal.

Do you travel for weddings?

Absolutely. I’m a Queensland wedding photographer, but I photograph celebrations throughout Australia and love travelling for destination weddings.Whether your wedding is close to home or somewhere you’ve always dreamed of saying “I do”, I’d love to hear all about your plans. Exploring new places and documenting love stories in beautiful locations is one of my favourite parts of this job.

Do you offer film or drone photography?

Yes. Both drone photography and 35mm film are available as additions to your wedding collection. Drone imagery offers a breathtaking perspective of your venue and surroundings (weather and venue regulations permitting), while 35mm film brings a beautifully nostalgic quality with soft tones, rich texture and timeless imperfections. Together, they complement your digital gallery, adding depth, atmosphere and another layer of storytelling to your wedding day.
