My Approach to Tasmania Wedding Photography

✦ 

What kind of celebration are you hoping to create?

My approach to wedding photography begins with attention. Creating a space for you to to explore your ideas whilst offering a relaxed, collaborative, approach in bringing those ideas to life. Simplicity is at the heart of all I do. I want your wedding, and the process of choosing a photographer to be easy, transparent and exciting. However you’re choosing to celebrate - let’s create something that is a natural extension of who you are.

Wedding photography across Tasmania & Melbourne.

Whether it’s a backyard wedding in Launceston, an elopement in the Tasmanian highlands, or a city celebration in Melbourne, I document what’s real. No rigid posing. Just really good photography that captures the joy and fun of you and your people.

What if your wedding could feel simpler?

Planning a wedding comes with a thousand moving parts. But your photography doesn’t have to be complicated. I believe in making things clear, kind, and easy—so you can focus on the joy, not the logistics. I put my full pricing online. I guide you through every step. And I make space for what matters most: connection.

Real joy. Real moments. Real celebrations.

What does real joy look like? Like this:

Real joy happens in the in-between—when you lose track of time, when you’re laughing with your people, when you’re not thinking about the camera. That’s when the good stuff shows up.

I don’t direct your day. I witness it. That’s what it means to be a candid wedding photographer in Tasmania—someone who sees what’s already there and captures it without interference. Not to say I don’t offer guidance when needed but my goal is always to capture the natural unfolding of the wedding rather than a posed photoshoot.

Whether your wedding is a legal ceremony with fish and chips by the coast or a dance-until-dawn party with 150 guests, I show up the same way: with reverence, curiosity, and care. Because joy looks different for everyone—and that’s exactly the point.

This isn’t about my vision. It’s about yours. I bring my skills and curiosity to honour your context, your people, your celebration.
So that… the photos feel like they could only have been yours. I’ll ask you about your creative inspiration, music, films, or literature to better understand your way of seeing the world.

Let’s make something meaningful together.

“"We didn’t want staged and artificial photos from a fancy wedding photographer. We wanted something a lot more real and we found that in Lachlan’s work. On the day he made us feel very comfortable. He was flexible with doing whatever and fun to be around. We loved his relaxed vibe and his overall outlook on life.” ”

“Lachlan captured the craziness and the excitement of our day - he captured how we were feeling. We were able to relive the whole day through our photos. There was a good balance of him being in the background unnoticed but also being part of the party. He made the whole process easy”
