Good questions.

Pause Studios is based in Sydney, NSW. We photograph weddings across Sydney, the Blue Mountains, Southern Highlands, Hunter Valley and the South Coast, and regularly in Auckland and across New Zealand. We also travel for destination weddings worldwide.

Most couples book 12 to 18 months ahead, especially for Saturdays in spring and autumn. We take a limited number of weddings each year, so if you have a date, it's worth checking now.

Once you're happy with your collection, we send a simple online contract. A 30% retainer secures your date. The next 30% is due six months before, and the balance one month before the wedding.

Yes. Pay any instalment by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or bank transfer, straight from your invoice.

Photography collections begin at $5,900 AUD for 8 hours. Most couples choose our Signature collection at $7,000, which includes 10 hours and an engagement shoot. Every collection includes GST and travel within Australia and New Zealand.

No. One price covers everything: travel, editing, your online gallery and a sneak peek the day after. Optional extras, like coffee table books or film, are clearly priced up front.

We're a photography studio first, and we work alongside a small group of hand-picked filmmakers. Add film to Signature or Legacy and we coordinate everything under one booking. Photo + Film starts at $11,500.

Candid, editorial and true to life. About 90% of the day is unobtrusive documentary coverage. The other 10% is gentle direction for portraits, so you'll never feel awkward, and you'll always know what to do with your hands.

That's most couples, and it's exactly who we love working with. We don't ask you to perform. We guide you into natural moments and capture what happens next.
