You’ve found each other. Your person. Your soulmate.

Now you’re dreaming up a day that feels like the two of you. Whether it’s somewhere far from home or in a place that already feels like yours, my role is to be there alongside you, telling the story of your day.

I document weddings, destination elopements and couples with a storytelling, cinematic approach.

Your photos won't just look beautiful - they'll be filled with emotion, memories, and love.

If you’re looking for a photographer who will be fully present on your day, feel like a friend while helping you plan your destination elopement, or create a storytelling session that captures the two of you doing your favourite things — you’ve found the right place.

Documenting your love story. Exactly as it happens. Wherever it takes place

learn more about me

I'm an elopement and intimate wedding photographer based on the Gold Coast and across South East Queensland.

I help empower couples to break free of rigid industry traditions by encouraging real human connection and creating a safe, unhurried space where your love (any love) can simply be itself.

I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.

I'M Rhiannan

Hey There,

All wedding packages include...

From the first moment we connect to the day your gallery arrives, my focus is on crafting a story that captures every ounce of emotion, meaning, and memory from your intimate wedding.

Your unique experience working with me

By getting to know you as a couple, your values, and the people that you cherish, we'll come up with a photography plan to ensure no special moments are missed.  

While weddings tend to follow a similar structure —  there is still plenty of time and moments during your day that are within your control. Together, we’ll design a flow for your day that feels natural and unhurried. 

Your fully edited, high-resolution images delivered in a beautiful digital gallery — easy to download, share, and treasure forever.

I love adding in the nostalgia that film can provide to intimate weddings! I include both digital and print versions of film for you to have as keepsakes.

Not a natural in front of the camera? I'm yet to meet someone who is! Your wedding day will be BUSY! But during the relaxed moments (like your bridal portraits)  where you might be wondering what to do with your hands, I'll be there to gently guide you in a way that feels natural and organic. 

No hidden fees or surprises — my travel costs within South East Queensland are already covered.
*For my half day package, travel up to 1 hour either direction from the Gold Coast is covered. 

You'll receive a sneak peek gallery within 24 hours for you to share with friends and family and relive the day while it's still fresh. Your final gallery will be delivered 4 weeks after your wedding date.

If the classic wedding day experience doesn't resonate with you - let's plan a day that will.

I also help couples who seek a wedding day deeply grounded in nature and experience.

Together, we'll build a plan that mirrors what matters most to you, whether that’s an intimate elopement, a slow and meaningful all day timeline, or a custom weekend full of bucketlist experiences.

No idea is too bold, too simple, or too outside the box.

Step one starts here

from 'hello' to 'I do'...

- Chloe + Dom

We are completely blown away by the photos, not only the special moments we remember, but also the beautiful candid shots we didn’t even realise she captured. Having Rhi photograph our special day was one of the best decisions we made. We feel so lucky, and we couldn’t believe how quickly we received our photos!

Rhi’s energy, creativity, and calming presence made everything feel effortless

- Maddi + Joel

Rhiannan made the whole experience so much fun & effortless, the pictures truly capture our love and excitement for this new chapter of our lives. Every photo feels so natural and special, as Rhi made us forget about the camera & let us be in the moment. These photos are memories that we will treasure forever 🫶🏻💍

Our gallery beautifully showcases our dream morning date..

- Jacinta + Kobe

We couldn’t be happier with the photos we received! From the very beginning, Rhiannan made us feel completely at ease - which was no small feat, as we’re not usually comfortable in front of the camera.

She truly listened to what we wanted (even when we weren’t quite sure ourselves) and brought a vision to life that felt so perfectly us.

We are absolutely obsessed with the final photos. They’ve captured such genuine moments and created everlasting memories we’ll cherish forever.
