Hamish & Nat - Mackenzie Quarters Bendigo

Hamish and Nat were married right in the heart of Bendigo in front of their closest family and friends. They did things their way the whole day. 

From reading their vows around the corner from each other (so they couldn’t peek) before the ceremony, to including their kids throughout the day. We didn’t spend long taking photos after the ceremony, just the right amount of time for them to get away and enjoy each other’s company before getting back to the party…and party they did!

We cannot thank Jim enough for the incredible service and support on our wedding day. From the very beginning, he was fantastic with communication, always quick to respond, happy to answer our many questions, and offering thoughtful suggestions to suit our plans.

On the day itself, Jim made the biggest difference for my wife, Natalie, who usually doesn’t enjoy having her photo taken. He created such a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere, gently guiding us through the photos while capturing every special moment so naturally. The images are filled with emotion and love, and allow us to relive the day exactly as it felt.

From Natalie’s perspective, it honestly felt like Jim was more than just our photographer, he was like our bridal party coordinator. He kept an eye on the time, made sure everyone knew what they were meant to be doing, and was a calming, reassuring presence from start to finish. As someone on the shy side, this helped her to relax and actually enjoy the day without feeling overwhelmed.

All of our photos turned out beautifully, and Jim was so efficient, he had everything wrapped up quickly so we could get back to enjoying the day with our guests, just as we’d hoped. He’s very professional, incredibly easy to work with, and hands down the best photographer in Bendigo.

We truly couldn’t imagine our wedding without him and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Jim to anyone planning their big day!
