Something you might notice is none of these people are being anything but themselves.
Wedding photography inspired by cinema and forged in connection.
Based in Sydney but documenting throughout Australia and beyond.
For those who value presence over performance, who want something refined but real.
Who want to remember both how it looked and how it felt.
Who don’t want to pose their way through their wedding day, but live it.
But still want striking imagery that feels like them.
You’ve come to the right place.
Art…
...for the heart
It can be beautiful AND real
Somewhere between nostalgic candids, cinema and art.
Shooting on digital, medium format and 35 mm film.
And an approach that never asks you to be anything but yourself.
Meet the Photographer & Creative Director, Dane Tucker
TOP 30
Named one of the world’s Top 30
emerging wedding photographers.
I’ve been a Sydney wedding photographer for over 10 years now, and I truly can’t imagine doing anything else.
I'm endlessy inspired by film, art and the subtleties of human connection, and I pour every one of these obsessions into my work.
Influenced by cinema I think deeply about lighting and composition and I approach every wedding with a sense of nostalgia about the present, documenting an unfolding narrative that feels like looking at a movie of a day in your life.
Because beneath all the aesthetics, what I’m really interested in is creating photographs that feel unmistakably human.

CHINATOWN WEDDING
“Two years after our marriage and we are still raving about Dane to all our friends, new and old.
Our photos are like movie stills. We feel so emotional looking at them every time. Dane's grace, dedication and kindness through the entire process, from the first meeting to delivering us our beautiful wedding album, is above and beyond. Dane kept up with our spontaneity and vision while keeping our moments grounded, but also cinematic and momentous. He truly showcased us as a couple more than we could have imagined.”

REDLEAF WEDDING
“Both my husband and I feel pretty awkward being photographed but Dane somehow made that all disappear, anchoring us in the moment with his prompts and suggestions, and making everything seem light, effortless and relaxed. He somehow managed to capture our whole story, along with all the warmth and love that surrounded us on the day. He's like a photo ninja, whenever there was a moment worthy of remembering, he was there.
We are honestly in awe of his work, the photos are nothing short of magic and we have not stopped gushing over them on the daily. Dane is as chilled out as he is professional, super sincere and reliable with the type of contagious energy and wicked sense of humour that you absolutely want around you on your wedding day.”Chloe & Carl

ART GALLERY OF NSW WEDDING
“Dane was our wedding super power.
We have never looked better than in Dane’s photos…he made us look awesome in a way that radiates how happy and in love we are.
Don’t book Dane if you want those generic, unnatural, awkward wedding photos you see all over the Internet. I don’t think he could do that if he tried. Book him if you want the real thing.
You can trust this man to be by your side in one of your most important life moments - as a positive, comfortable and calm force.”Milla & Ben

WALLALONG HOUSE WEDDING
“The best decisions we made as part of our wedding planning was choosing Dane.
Not only were the photographs excellent, but the capturing of specific people, moments, and emotions came from Dane's secret - his understanding of the humans he is photographing. Dane really spent the time to get to know us, and it shows - the most important set of photos we have in our lives to date are unmistakably ours.Dane has some of the most rare and sought-after virtues of being both technically excellent and emotionally gifted. He would be an amazing addition to any wedding.”

GROUNDS OF ALEXANDRIA WEDDING
“I'm a wedding photographer and Dane is the man I chose to shoot my wedding.
I've looked up to Dane's work for years now because he's excellent at lighting, composition and learning people's stories. He is constantly improving his craft, constantly challenging himself and on top of all this he makes everyone he meets feel great about who they are.
I chose Dane to be our wedding photographer because he's so good at documenting authentic emotion on wedding days and because he's so good at capturing single shots that tell a range of stories. And that's exactly what he did.”Jack & Olivia
What do I want for you?
Mostly I want you to feel seen. Like some essential part of you and your people has captured and given form in an image.
This is achieved by creating a space where people feel comfortable enough to be themselves, with a gentle guiding hand where needed.
Because only once that is done does an opportunity arise to create images that are both cinematically striking and emotionally honest.
A marriage of art and story.
