Affordable Wedding Photography and Videography

As a team Hawthorne Creative has now shot over 700 weddings since 2019 and it’s no secret that we value both aesthetic appeal and human connections. Our focus is on making sure our work revolves around our clients, not the other way around and we bring to the table extensive wedding experience which means that you can be confident that we can handle any situation that should arise!

To ensure a stress-free experience for our clients, we work closely with them as a seamless part of their special day. Our photography style leans towards contemporary candid shots, with a preference for muted color tones in our finished galleries. Our affordable wedding photography and wedding videography options cater to all, and we take pride in offering additional services such as 35mm film photos, Super 8 video, drone photography, drone videography, cold sparks, and dancing on the clouds. We also offer content creation, photo booths, audio guestbook and a large bubble machine!

We are available to serve clients in Queensland, Sydney, and Melbourne, and are happy to travel across Australia in pursuit of capturing beautiful images (additional travel fees may apply).
