Experience
Reviews from past clients, the wedding process, and what exactly makes a Sugar Tree bride.
HOW IT WORKS
the PROCESS
01
initial meeting
We’ll chat about your love story, your hopes for your day, your vision of your wedding album - and all of that will colour what I capture on your big day!
02
booking
I've made signing your contract and paying your retainer a super easy process and once this is done, your date will be scheduled in my diary and our exciting journey to your wedding day begins as we're officially official!
03
PLANNING + CONSULTATIONS
We'll work together to ensure your wildest dreams will come true and that I know which things are most important to you about your day. (All of them, I know!)
04
ENGAGEMENT SESSION
We’ll schedule your engagement session. And don’t worry... I’ll walk you through EVERYTHING! Helping my couples get comfortable and feel like themselves, is my biggest goal. After the first 20 minutes of your session, you will be pros. That’s all the time we need to get rid of nerves and start capturing the joy of this new season of your life together!
05
YOUR WEDDING
All our prep means that you can simply enjoy this special day knowing that I have everything under control.
I'm here to capture everything & help you soak it all in too.
This day is going to be a blur to you & so I make it a priority to capture the traditional shots that every bride needs while also capturing the moments in between in a creative & unique way.

"5 Stars is not enough to rate what an incredible experience we had."
As a photographer myself I was nervous to step to the other side of the lens, I was reassured by Mandy that we would have fun and that I'd be surprised by the results. Boy was I surprised!! Throughout the planning Mandy was always happy to offer ideas and was so prompt in her responses. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to guide us through the processes and assist in our stress free day! I had no worries at all and put all my faith in her ability! At no point were we disappointed or even stressed about anything when it came to our day being captured! Thank you Mandy for all your hard work and passion! We are so lucky to be a STP couple!

"Mandy gave us memories for a lifetime."
It was an absolute dream working with Mandy on our wedding day, she captured all our precious moments and has given us memories for a lifetime! We're not great in front of the camera, but Mandy made it feel so natural and effortless. I can highly recommend her, she really takes the stress out of the wedding day!

"It was like we were super models, I've never had such fun in front of the camera."
The experience we had with Mandy as she captured our wedding was beyond description. Her professionalism and kindness ooze into the atmosphere as she works. And, she steps in to help with the smallest things - She's a photographer, superhero and angel all-in-one! Thank you Mandy! We love looking back at the memories you helped us capture.

"I cannot recommend Mandy highly enough."
From our initial phone call, the day itself, as well as the final gallery created, Mandy's guidance, knowledge and attention to detail were outstanding. We couldn't be happier with the quality of her work, and already know we'll be requesting her services again in the near future!

"All the emotions & moments of the day are so real"
Mandy captured our wedding so amazingly. All the emotions and moments of the day, are so real when you see the photos. We will look back at our photos and remember our special day. Mandy is very professional, has the ability to make you feel calm and magically moves around capturing your photos without intruding on your day.
Jane & Chris
"Our wedding images were beyond our expectations!"
Our wedding images were beyond our expectations. Mandy worked tirelessly throughout the day and she certainly made our wedding day a very special day for both of us to remember, our guests also commented how relaxed we all felt. I would highly recommend her for any function requiring a photographer, the quality of her work is brilliant.
