CENTRAL COAST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Honest, relaxed wedding photography across Avoca, Terrigal, Pearl Beach, and the Hinterland.

GENUINE UNSCRIPTED STORY-TELLING MINIMAL FUSS MAXIMAL FEELS

I’m Nic — a Central Coast wedding photographer drawn to the salt air, golden light, and the raw, beautiful emotion that unfolds during a wedding day. The Central Coast where bushland meets beach, and where every celebration takes on its own natural rhythm — whether you’re saying your vows in a quiet garden, walking hand in hand along Pearl Beach, or throwing the kind of party that lights up the hinterland sky.

My approach is documentary-style with a relaxed touch. You won’t find me orchestrating your every move — instead, I gently guide when needed, observe closely, and preserve your day as it truly unfolds. The big moments, the stolen glances, the quiet hands squeezed under the table. Those are the ones I live for.

Over the years, I’ve photographed couples from all walks of life getting married in surf clubs, private estates, Airbnb gardens, and clifftop chapels — and no two stories have ever felt the same. That’s what drives my work. That no two weddings should ever be captured the same way. With me, you’ll get more than just images — you’ll get a calm, experienced presence, and a gallery full of warmth, depth, and little moments you didn’t even know I caught.

WHAT TO EXPECT

From the moment you get in touch, I’m here to make the experience feel easy, intentional, and completely you. I know that planning a wedding can sometimes feel overwhelming — but your photography shouldn’t be. I’ll help you shape a timeline that flows naturally, make space for spontaneous moments, and ensure there’s always time to chase that golden light together.

On the day, you’ll barely notice me most of the time — I’ll be quietly capturing all the hugs, glances, happy tears and unexpected laughs. When you do see me, I’ll be gently guiding you into light that flatters, spaces that feel right, and moments that unfold without any pressure. No awkward posing or over-directing — just support when you need it, and space when you don’t.

Afterwards, you’ll receive a heartfelt gallery that reflects not just what your day looked like, but how it felt — full of warmth, connection, and the beautiful, fleeting in-betweens.

LET’S MAKE MAGIC

If you’re dreaming of relaxed, heartfelt wedding photography that reflects the spirit of the Central Coast — the ocean breeze, the calm bush surrounds, the joyful chaos of celebration — I’d love to hear more about your plans. My couples are often creatives, nature-lovers, introverts, extroverts, or a mix of both — but all of them want honest, story-driven imagery that doesn’t feel forced or staged.

Whether you’re having a barefoot elopement with just your closest people, or a 150-guest party under festoon lights and stars, I’m here to capture it all with intention and heart. I’ll guide you gently when needed, step back when you’re fully in the moment, and create a gallery that tells your story — in all its laughter, softness, and beautifully imperfect realness.
