Sunshine Coast wedding photographer and storyteller
Meet Luke.
Your calm in the beautiful chaos.
Your wedding should feel like a wedding, not a photoshoot. For more than 22 years, I have helped couples feel relaxed, comfortable and completely present while I capture the people, emotion and little in-between moments that make their day uniquely theirs.
How I want your wedding to feel.
Relaxed enough to be yourselves. Present enough to take it all in. Supported enough to trust that everything is handled.
Whether you feel confident or completely awkward in front of a camera, I will know when to offer gentle guidance, how to keep everything flowing naturally and when to step back and let the moment unfold.
My goal is simple. When you look through your photographs, I want you to remember not only how your wedding looked, but exactly how it felt.
A camera, a nickname and 11,000 volts
I have always been the bloke with the camera.
Growing up, everyone called me Kodak because I was always photographing life as it happened.
After school, I tried a few different paths. I worked as a lifeguard, stacked shelves at Liquorland and eventually became an electrician. Then one day, drilling into 11,000 volts nearly cost me everything. It also gave me the clarity to return to what I had always loved most: telling people’s stories through photography and film.
More than 22 years and 1,300 weddings later, I still feel incredibly fortunate to do this.
What it feels like having me there
Guidance when you need it. Space when you do not.
Comfortable
You will never be left wondering what to do. I offer relaxed direction without forcing you into awkward poses or turning the day into a photoshoot.
Completely present
Your wedding will not revolve around photographs. I keep things flowing so you can enjoy the people, emotion and moments that truly matter.
In experienced hands
Changing timelines, difficult weather and unexpected moments are all part of weddings. I handle them calmly without adding stress to your day.

The bloke behind the camera
Down to earth, adventurous and always chasing a feeling.
When I am not photographing weddings, you will usually find me chasing a sunrise, walking the beach with my Husky German Shepherd, Leeshe, or doing something that gets the heart racing.
I love nature, adventure, motorsports and experiences that make you feel completely alive. That energy carries into my photography and helps me create images filled with movement, emotion and personality.
I connect best with down-to-earth couples who care deeply about each other, want to enjoy their wedding and are happy to embrace whatever the day brings.
Behind the scenes
See what I’m like on a wedding day.
The best way to understand how I work is to see me with real couples. Expect plenty of laughter, calm guidance and absolutely no awkward photoshoot energy.
What couples say
You do not have to take my word for it.
“Luke is like a ninja. You barely notice him, yet he captures the most natural and beautiful moments. We ran into the pouring rain and created photographs beyond anything we dreamed of.”
“From our personal portal and questionnaires to Luke’s fun, easygoing personality, we felt supported from the very beginning. Our photographs are absolutely perfect.”
“Luke’s chilled, down-to-earth and reassuring personality put even my camera-shy husband completely at ease. We actually enjoyed having our photographs taken.”
Do you feel like we might be a good fit?
