F A Q
Ben, we are super awkward getting our photo taken, is that a problem?
Not at all. This is the same for most of my clients.
The main part of my job is to ensure you’re relaxed and comfortable.
I generally prefer to float around in the background, candidly capturing the day as it naturally flows. When it comes to portraits, I'll give a little more direction, but my main aim is for you to be yourselves and to enjoy this part of your special day.
How do we confirm a booking with you?
To reach out please fill in the form on the contact page. Firstly we will need to discuss if your wedding date and location is available.
Once confirmed a $1500 deposit and contract will be exchanged.
Do we need to meet?
Where possible and practical, I’d love to meet in person before the wedding to discuss your plans and inspirations for the day.
Alternatively video or voice call are always an option.
How long will it take to receive our images?
I always aim to have an initial selection of images across to you within 48 hours of the wedding day. You will then receive a complete gallery approximately 4 weeks later.
The images are delivered via an online platform, where you can easily download the high resolution files or make selections for prints.
How many images will we get from our wedding?
Generally I deliver a minimum of 100 photos per hour. Over the course of an 8 hour booking you can expect to receive between 800 - 1000 images.
Do you shoot film?
Film is a beautiful medium to complement the story telling of digital photography.
I offer this as an add on service for $200 per roll of 36 images, hand scanned and delivered with the wedding gallery.
Do you work with a 2nd Photographer?
From 20 years of experience, my genuine belief is I don’t require a second photographer. I do however offer this as a package should you have a considerably large wedding and wish to try to capture most of your guests.
Do you travel interstate and overseas for weddings?
Absolutely. Depending on location it will incur additional costs including airfare, accommodation and car hire. Please make an enquiry on the contact page for a specific quote for your destination.
How much do you charge?
Wedding coverage starts from $3500 and elopements from $2300. Please fill in the form on the contact page to receive detailed package information for your wedding..
Do you offer video?
This is not included in my package however I can provide a list of experienced videographers based on your location.

There is something truly special about finding a photographer who sees the world like you do and then captures it in more ways then you could possibly imagine! We feel thankful and blessed to have shared our wedding festivities alongside the incredibly skilful, insightful and gifted Ben Adams! Capturing it all, the light, the feeling, the history, the connections between guests, the moments of heart explosion and extreme deep painful laughter, he’s got it all! Our wedding photos capture our story and moments that will forever be hard to put into words. It was a privilege to show you small town Sweden, Thank you so much Ben.

What is so attractive about Ben’s style is his reverence for nature and the way he weaves that into his wedding photography. He finds a way to echo your love and your soul into the landscape that surrounds you. It’s incredibly humbling. We still look back on our wedding photos with so much warmth and joy.
Aside from the incredible creative work he does, Ben was just such a great person to spend our day with (and you really do spend nearly all day in the company of your photographer!!) His peaceful energy kept us calm and made it easy to be ourselves in front of the lens and his quiet confidence allowed us to trust that the visual aspect of our day was completely taken care of.
Ben nails that balance between relaxed yet professional, passionate yet never bossy, very tall (we are shorties) yet somehow completely inconspicuous!!
At the end of the day we felt like we were saying goodbye to a great friend, not just our photographer!
- Natalie & James
After meeting Ben and seeing his incredible portfolio, we knew instantly that he would be the perfect photographer for our special day. Ben is warm, friendly, professional, organised and passionate about his love for photography. He effortlessly managed to capture all of the important moments on our wedding day, whilst making sure that we were feeling comfortable and having a great time. Ben took the time to get to know us, and as a result, our wedding photos truly reflect us as a couple.
Ben had some amazing ideas for shots, but he also captured so many fun, genuine and candid moments of our day. He always managed to seamlessly be in the right spot at the right time to capture the perfect moment. We are so lucky to now have so many treasured memories to share with all our loved ones. Thank you so much Ben, you did an amazing job and truly exceeded our expectations. It was a pleasure to have you as a part of our wedding day!

Ben is the ultimate wedding photographer! From our first initial contact to delivery of our photographs he was professional, down to earth, personable, and just an all round great guy! Ben exceeded our expectations across all fronts. Not only did he send us a sneak preview 2 days after our wedding, he had made and delivered the most beautiful keepsake box with a few printed shots and a USB of all our files. Ben was beyond helpful in helping to organise the timeline for our day, making sure we made the most of those golden sunset hours - and oh boy, are those shots incredible! My husband and I honestly can not thank Ben enough for his services. We recommend him to every one we know getting married. He made us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, producing gorgeous high quality shots that truly reflect my husband's and my true personality. HIRE HIM!
- Adelaide & Alex
Ben is the best in the business. I am a photographer and designer so who we had at our wedding was always going to be a hard decision — But Ben's framing, timing and the way he uses natural light has always made his work stand out. Ben is so good to work with - no fuss, all class. He didn't miss a shot and we are SO glad we didn't compromise when choosing him. Super fast turn around, above and beyond in services rendered, and all at incredible quality. He can read the room and always knows where to be so that he can capture the little moments that would otherwise be missed. Get Ben he's ten out of ten!
- Hannah & Dan
Ben was recommended to us from a family friend photographer who was unable to do our wedding. I saw some of Bens work on Instagram and we didn’t bother looking any further and cancelled all other appointments (after already having so many) Ben made us feel super comfortable (as we don’t normally like to be photographed) he was quick to reply to all of our queries, his organisation was OUT of this world e.g he went to the venue and location prior to the day and took pictures at a similar time to the wedding time to show us previews of what they would look like. His pictures were Beautiful! I felt like he captured (especially my immediate family) a piece of their personality in a lot of the photos. I expected his prices to be so high given the effort and care but instead we’re great value. I couldn’t recommend him more, he was worth every single cent!!!
- Demi & Corban
“Ben and I would like to thank you for walking the extra mile for us this Saturday (quite literally.. You may need to wash your shoes!) ;)You took the time to get to know us, and generously went beyond the call of duty, to capture every moment possible. I didn’t think a photographer could be in more than one place at a time til I saw you in your element ;D You are such an absolutely gorgeous soul and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being there for us on our special day”
- Candice & Ben
Having Ben as our photographer was the easiest wedding decision we made. We decided on Ben initially because we loved his photography style, but ended up being so impressed by the whole experience, it was honestly the best choice we made. It’s Ben’s professionalism that really stood out to us, from the communication pre wedding to the on the day experience, we felt Ben had it all under control and we could just relax into the moment, which for us was really important.
- Bella & Michael
Whoa oh wow Ben, you have certainly spoilt us! You have blown us away to the moon and back. We’ve both been lost in the magic of Ben – love it, love it! Have seriously been on an emotional roller coaster – just the best kind!
We are so so extremely happy. Not only have you allowed us to relive every moment (and moments that we don’t even recall happening), it’s incredible how each photo has so many layers of joy, invoking so many emotions. You are a true “fly on the wall” that doesn’t miss a single thing – amazing!
Thank you, thank you Ben! Although thank you doesn’t convey enough how grateful we are. You have been an absolute dream to work with, so accommodating, and most of all always putting up with my scatterbrain and how disorganised I am – means so much to me.
- Ahn & Kim
We had Ben capture our wedding day, each time we look through our wedding slideshow it still brings us to tears. Ben captured the essence of our day, a celebration of happiness and love. He was accommodating from the start and walked us through the entire process and made recommendations on selecting locations and times, however, Ben took this to the next level seeing beautiful light and settings to capture amazing photos of us. Ben was responsive to every question and made us feel at ease on the day, particularly when a little camera shy. He was so discreet throughout the entire ceremony and evening we and our guests barely noticed him quietly capturing every single moment of our celebrations. We love our photos and will cherish them for the rest of our lives.
- Lucy & Tim
Having Ben do the photography for our wedding was one of the best decisions that we have ever made. Ben is totally professional, friendly and so easy to deal with. On the day of our wedding Ben seemed to be everywhere all at once. He didn't miss a thing. The quality of the final photos, and the way that they were so beautifully presented to us was outstanding to say the least. Literally every single time we show our slideshow to people, we tell them how fantastic Ben was. We can't recommend him highly enough.
