HELLO.
My name is Ben and I am a fine art destination wedding photographer based in Australia and I travel frequently to different destinations for weddings and editorial projects.
I love capturing your beautiful love story as it unfolds. From the excitement and amazing details in the morning, to the emotional wedding ceremony, bridal session and your romantic first dance.
The Finest Moment for me is that brief moment when love, joy, and magic can be felt in the air and seen through my lens.
I am available for weddings in Australia and travel internationally for destination weddings, pre-weddings, engagement session and even honeymoon session.
