Warm + Joyous Wedding Photography
Thomas Stewart | Southern Highlands Wedding Photographer
Photography – for people who don’t love having their photo taken
I’m Tom. I’m a wedding photographer based in Bowral in the beautiful Southern Highlands. I’m primarily shoot in a documentary style, meaning that I prefer to document what is happening on the day, rather than spend hours posing you / telling you what to do. I’ll glide into your wedding day and make friends with everyone as quickly as possible. We’ll hang out for the afternoon; the next day when I send you a bunch of preview photos, you’ll think ‘wow, I didn’t even realise Tom was taking these!’ And it’ll feel like I was just a long lost friend who managed to make it to your wedding, and who happened to bring his camera.
Based in Bowral, NSW
This exact group of people at your wedding – they’ll NEVER be in the same place, at the same time, ever again. That’s pretty special! This incredible meeting of new friends, old friends, and family is why I love shooting weddings, and it’s what I strive to document every time I pick up my camera. When you look through the photos here on my site, I hope you’ll see a kind of theme: my main inspiration is people, and the beautiful human interactions that occur in front of me.
None of the couples you see on my site are models. None of these photos are from styled shoots or editorials. These are all real couples like you, who were most probably just as apprehensive about having their photo taken as you are. In fact at my own wedding I was nervous about photos too, so I feel you.
Weddings are pretty amazing
Weddings are truly something special. I have this theory that weddings are kinda alive – like, they have a heartbeat, a pulse, a personality. Throw 100 or so people into a beautiful place, give them great food and music – and watch the magic unfold. It’s this magic that I want to photograph, and to document.
Pricing
I give 100% of my creative and emotional force to every single wedding I shoot, and as of 2023 I’ve capped my yearly weddings at 40. Most couples who book me spend between $4k and $5k. You can find more info below, or contact me for a full package list.
