I loved working with Jodie! So friendly, professional and accommodating for everything I wanted with my photos. I appreciated her guidance and tips with poses and enjoyed the whole experience of getting my photos done with Jodie😁

I’ve known Jodie for decades and I’ve been lucky enough to be photographed by her since I was a teenager. Jodie has photographed my wedding, significant birthdays and modelling shoots for me for many years with utmost professionalism and integrity.
Sean
Jodie was so calm and relaxed through my wedding.I barely even knew she was there. I ended up with the most stunning photos and video that I will cherish forever.
She was calm and exactly the kind of person you want around at your Wedding.
I can’t recommend Jodie and Jake enough. They were really reasonable priced and lovely to deal with ❤️🙌🏽

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I think giving the couple good direction and nice light is the best way to make a beautiful moment to photograph. Telling the couple what to do that looks natural and not composed is definitely my style.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I try to tell the client to ignore the camera and smile a lot, even if they are deep thinking about the day. The day is usually handled by seasoned, experienced people like myself so you may as well enjoy the day and know everything else is usually taken care of.
What do you love most about your job?
I love thinking back to all the beautiful moments I get to see and capture. All over the world I have been able to see LOVE take place.
The way the couple looks at each other, laughs, hugs and capturing family with them. To think these iconic moments are looked back on forever from my camera is a privilege.
Travelling for destination Wedding is a massive bonus as I love to see and film portraits all over the world. Italy, Paris and Lake Como have been some of my favourites.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Ive always just liked taking photos, so when people asked me to photograph them the money was just a bonus. I have always like to be inspired and inspire others. I also love running my own business and taking on all the work I want. This makes me have a happy life.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have 25 years experience. I hear brides all the time say I didn't even know you were there in the moments she loves. That makes it better for me as I like the day to be focussed on the couple and not other distractions. I'm calm ( it's my super-power ) I have an amazing back up or second photographer, ( my husband ) as we both worked for a high-end studio in New York for 5 years. We were named in the top 10 wedding photographers in the world by Harper's Bazaar. I genuinely love capturing the day as if it were my own wedding and think its amazing to be able to hand over these timeless photos of a moment in time.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I can travel to anywhere in the world and love too. We would just discuss the travel fees included in a wedding package to suit you.
I have shot weddings all over the world and Sydney and would love to shoot your beautiful day.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Covid free weddings are obviously the best case scenario. Im happy to wear a mask if asked to of course.
