‘Love one another and you will be happy. It’s as simple and as difficult as that’ - Michael Leunig
If you love someone, let them sleep in.

Hello and welcome!

💍 Welcome—we’re so glad you’re here!

We’re absolutely thrilled you’ve found your way to our corner of the internet. Left of The Middle Photography is all about real connection, relaxed vibes, and capturing the heart of your story—whether it’s your wedding day, an elopement, or just a fun, love-filled session with your partner.

We believe photography should feel like hanging out with a friend (who just happens to take incredible photos). In fact, many couples tell us they felt like we were part of their wedding party—laughing with the guests, keeping things calm when needed, and always ready to capture the big and small moments as they unfold.

Did you know that you’ll likely spend more time with your photographer on your wedding day than almost anyone else? That’s why it’s so important to find someone who gets you. We take the time to get to know you beforehand, so when the big day comes around, we’re already in sync—and that connection shows in your photos.

We’ll work with you to create a clear, stress-free timeline and guide you through the whole process with open communication, thoughtful planning, and a few laughs along the way. From the quiet, emotional moments to the spontaneous dance floor chaos—we’ll be there for it all.

Oh—and while we don’t usually shout it from the rooftops, we’re also proud to be an award-winning photography team based in Lake Macquarie, with years of experience capturing weddings across Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, the Central Coast, and Port Stephens. It’s been an incredible honour to be recognised for doing what we love most.

If you’re after heartfelt, natural, and joy-filled storytelling, you’re in the right place. Let’s make something beautiful together.

Micro Wedding | Starting at $950

💫 Planning a micro wedding? We’re here for it! There’s something incredibly special about keeping things small, meaningful, and all about the two of you. Whether you’re imagining a laid-back ceremony by the lake, a sunset “I do” on the beach, or an intimate celebration tucked away in the bush—we’re here to help you create a day that feels just right. Micro weddings let you strip away the fuss and focus on what really matters: your love, your people, and the little moments in between. We'll be there to guide you through the planning, help create a stress-free timeline, and offer location ideas across Lake Macquarie, Newcastle, the Hunter Valley, the Central Coast, and beyond. Need help finding a cosy spot for dinner or the perfect hidden gem for photos? We’ve got you. And of course—we’ll be there to document it all. The quiet moments, the big belly laughs, the windswept kisses, and everything in between. If you’re dreaming of a beautiful, intentional day that feels true to you—we’d love to be part of it. Let’s make it unforgettable.

Real Moments, Romantic Vibes. My style is all about capturing real emotion with a warm, candid edge. Whether it’s a sunlit kiss on the beach, an unscripted laugh between friends, or a tender exchange between parents and children, I focus on telling honest stories with a mix of:

• Natural Light & Warm Tones – Emphasizing golden hues and soft highlights that evoke calm and joy.

• Genuine Connection – Every image reflects the true chemistry between people—raw, unscripted, and full of personality.

• Relaxed Editorial Feel – While my work leans into documentary-style moments, I frame them with an editorial eye—clean compositions, flattering angles, and timeless backdrops.

• Playful Yet Elegant – Whether it’s a barefoot stroll by the sea or heart-shaped sunnies on the dance floor, I embrace the fun and the beautiful, always with an eye for the authentic.

If you’re after wedding and lifestyle photography that feels as joyful, grounded, and unique as your story—you’re in the right place.

We would love you check out our wedding blog where we have so many galleries to share.
