Wedding Photography
Packages 2025/26
Why book me?
My couples always say the same thing — “That was so easy!” And trust me, that’s no accident.
With 10+ years and hundreds of weddings under my belt, I’m a total pro who knows how to make your day flow like pure magic, no matter what pops up.
I still get that same buzz walking into a wedding as I did on day one. This isn’t just a job — it’s what lights me up every single time.
From our first chat to the final gallery drop, I’m here to keep things chill, the moments genuine, and the stress miles away. Rain, last-minute changes, shy kids, stressed parents — no worries. I’ve got a whole toolkit of calm, creativity, and good vibes to handle it all.
I’m not just snapping gorgeous photos (though you’ll get plenty). I’m your behind-the-scenes sidekick, flyaway fixer, low-key hype woman, and friendly face in the beautiful chaos. And when you don’t know what to do with your hands? Don’t sweat it — I’ve got you.
From the “OMG we’re engaged!” moment right through to the champagne-soaked dance floor, I’m all in, making sure you look and feel amazing every step of the way.

Fine Art Wedding Albums
This isn’t just a wedding album — it’s your love story, bound forever.
When the cake’s been eaten and the flowers have faded, your photos are what bring it all rushing back. The laughs. The tears. The magic. Imagine flipping through them on your anniversary… or showing your grandkids what real love looks like.
Your album won’t need an update, a charger, or a password — just hands to hold it.
Handcrafted in Australia using timeless Italian bookbinding techniques, it's built to outlive trends and tech. Wrapped in your choice of linen, vegan leather, or classic leather, and engraved with a design that’s so you — it’s the kind of beautiful you want on your coffee table, always.
Your first family heirloom starts here.

HOW TO BOOK
Ready to book your wedding photography?
To secure your date, all you need is a $1,000 non-refundable retainer and a signed contract. You don’t need to choose your exact package straight away — that can wait until your timeline takes shape. The main thing? Locking in your date so no one else can snap it up.
Once your retainer is paid and your contract is signed, your date is all yours, and I’ll turn away any other enquiries for that day.
Most couples will choose an album with the coverage that fits their timeline — it’s the one thing they’re always glad they invested in.
Final payment is due one week before your wedding, and you’re welcome to pay in instalments or a lump sum. Direct debit is preferred, but credit card or PayPal is totally fine (note card fees apply.)
If you’re ready to book, I’d be so thrilled to photograph your day! Let me know, and I’ll send through the contract and payment details to lock it all in.

Can’t wait to hear from you!

Kind Words
-
Yes I do. I love travelling for work and have photographed weddings in Italy, New Zealand, Queensland and all over New South Wales. Travel fees apply but are very reasonable to cover transport and accommodation.
-
Please email me saying you’d like to book and I’ll send through a contract and booking fee invoice. Once this is paid and the contract is signed your booking is secured!
-
For portraits sessions the full fee is due prior to the shoot date.
Weddings and elopement require a $1000 non-refundable booking retainer which secures the date of the wedding. All remaining fees are due seven days prior to the wedding date.
You can chose which package you would like anytime between paying the booking retainer and the week before your wedding when final payment is due.
I understand timelines evolve and the booking retainer most importantly is to lock in your date! I really don’t mind how you pay - in lump sum or instalments.
-
100% yes. I believe that love is love and am so excited that same sex couples now have the same rights as everybody else.
-
I understand timelines evolve and you may not know how much wedding photography coverage you want until you finalise your run sheet.
So when you decide to book you don’t need to confirm which package you’d like until much closer to your wedding date. The most important thing is to secure your date while it is available and that you have an idea of budget and what the packages cost.
My most common wedding package is 8 hours + an album or 10 hours of photography coverage.
10 hours will cover all of the below.
8 hours will cover most of the below with shortened time in prep and end of night.
6 hours usually covers prep or reception but not both.
General wedding day photography coverage…
Getting ready - the details, the nerves, your people.
First look - if you want one?
The arrival, ceremony, the kiss and walk down the aisle as a married couple - woop woop!
Formal family photos straight after the ceremony- short and sweet I promise.
Beautiful portraits - let’s have a good time, and not a long time away from your guests!
Reception shenanigans, heartfelt speeches and amazing food.
Dance floor happiness.
-
Absolutely! I will be with you every step of the way (especially with timelines and timing your portrait sessions with sunset) and if you need me at any time in the lead up to your wedding I’ll be there.
After you book you’ll have access to a client area with all of the information to help plan your wedding.
-
Elopements are micro weddings of less than 20 people. With less scheduled activities, they generally need less photography coverage.
Elopement packages start from 2 hours of coverage and are available mid-week during peak season or weekends as well during winter.
Weddings have 20 or more guests and usually have a full day of activities that need more photography coverage.
-
Weddings require me to be an event, portrait, food, wine, architecture, interiors and fashion photographer all in one day! I love doing commercial work. Please outline your job when you enquire so I can provide an accurate quote.
My commercial page is https://www.kirstencunningham.com/commercial-photography
-
Absolutely. I have up to date public liability insurance up to $20 million. I’m more than happy to send you a copy of you or your venue require it. Just ask.
-
If you needed to change your wedding date due to covid legislation the $1000 retainer is able to be moved to another new mutually agreed upon date, but isn't refundable.
Please note all wedding cancellations whether related to Covid 19 legislation or not, are subject to the terms and conditions of the contract - which state the booking retainer is not refundable as after your date is secured all other work is turned away.
-
Yes! When you pay the $1000 non-refundable booking retainer and sign the contract your date will be secured and all other potential work is turned away.
-
Most weddings I photograph my myself and easily cover everything. However if you have a wedding of 100+ guests or have special requests a second shooter can be very handy!
Please note this is subject to availability depending on the location of your wedding and availability of securing a second shooter.
-
Weddings packages will have a sneak peek of 20-50 photos delivered via an online gallery within 48 hours of your wedding. The final gallery will be ready 4-6 weeks after your wedding day.
Lifestyle and family are generally around 2 weeks unless there is a prearranged rush edit.
-
There is an unlimited amount of images you will receive. For weddings and family it is around 50-100 edited photographs per hour of photography. Lifestyle will depend on what we are photographing but I don’t have a capped number of images. All edited images are included in the pricing.
-
I upload all of the high resolution images to a private online gallery where you can download them in web and print size. I send this via email and you can share the link with family and friends.
