Capturing life at its best moments

Hello! I’m Bodhi, a passionate photographer from the beautiful Southern Highlands, just south of Sydney, NSW. I have been working as a professional photographer for 3 years after my studies at The University Of Wollongong. To me, photographs are windows into these treasured moments of your life, as they become vivid memories in the form of beautifully crafted images. I would love to assist you with capturing your life’s most precious moments, be it engagements, weddings, pregnancies, family reunions or even just for fun, through bespoke photography.

Let me capture every moment of your big day and showcase your love story. Your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life. These are images you will keep forever, through generations of your family. I take the utmost pride when someone hires me to shoot their wedding. There are no second chances and no retakes – so I have to nail it.

I am a strong believer of hiring a photographer whom you actually vibe with – I know I would hate to have someone boring following me around with a camera on my wedding day! If you want a relaxed photographer, who will capture you in an authentic way, I am the perfect choice.

My approach on the day is to capture how it unfolds naturally. So, I’ll let candid moments shine and step in to give direction for those tricky to manage group photos with your VIPs and bridal party and your more intimate couples’ photos. My directions could be as simple as asking you to face a window whilst getting ready, to make the most of some beautiful light; or as elaborate as organising a sparkler exit from your reception at the end of the day. I am very familiar with the way a typical wedding day unfolds – from getting ready, to the ceremony, and joining you on the dance floor.

​​I want you to look back at these images and relive the best parts of your ceremony, from the laughs, the tears, the love-felt embraces and the boogies and banter later on.

Meet Your Photographer

Hello!

I’m Bodhi

I’m local

I know all the best photography spots in the Southern Highlands, and I have access to a beautiful farm in Colo Vale where we can shoot family, maternity, or couple photos. If you’re getting married at Bendooley Estate, Milton Park or Mali Brae Farm I’m just around the corner – I can meet you there to walk through the venue and start to dream your photos for your big day.

I’m energetic & bubbly

I am very passionate about photography, and conveying your unique stories through a collection of images. As a result, I am an enthusiastic photographer, who is easy to get along with, making you feel both energised and at-ease in front of the camera.

I’m inspired by light and nature.

I’m very comfortable in a variety of lighting situations, and pride myself on making the most  of natural sunlight as well as introducing light sources in my photography. After all, without light, there would be no photograph. Everything you see in my images is real. To ensure we get the perfect lighting in your images, I’ll bring my own lighting equipment to our photoshoot. After all, we can’t always trust the weather!

Dearest Bodhi,

You have captured the beauty and joy of the day so incredibly well! We are absolutely blown away. So many great shots, we cherry picked some favourites which happened to be more than 200 photos. 

Thank you so much, you are amazing. We are forever grateful!

Jess & Rhys

Bodhi absolutely nailed our photos! He was so easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera.

He is such a down to earth guy and is so so passionate about what he does, and this really shows through his work, it truly does speak for itself.

Bodhi coached us through a few poses that we ended up incorporating into our first dance as we loved them so much.

Our special day could not have gone any better, it was far better than we could have ever hoped for. Thank you for being there to capture all of the love and emotion, don’t know how you do it, but you did it mate.
