HELLO Hello!

I’m Rae, the creative behind the lens at Rae Louise Photography. My journey into photography began just after I finished university. A friend was launching her fashion brand and knew I had dabbled in photography before, so she said, “You can do it.” And I did! I remember coming out of that experience feeling like I’d finally found my thing. Then one thing led to another, I started photographing weddings while simultaneously working for an agency in Sydney before I finally took the leap of faith and went all in on my own business.

Being located just an hour from the Hunter Valley, It just made sense to be a part of capturing people’s special days. I now photograph weddings across Australia, bringing a laid-back, go-with-the-flow vibe and warm, true-to-colour images. I’m an outdoors girl who loves natural light, but I’ll happily whip out my flash for dramatic or fun moments.

Expect a little goofiness on your wedding day. I work hard and party harder, all to make you feel relaxed, confident and utterly yourselves. I also shoot beyond weddings, personal branding for entrepreneurs, family sessions, maternity & couples sessions, and model/fashion work. you’ll get the Same friendly, natural approach and attention to detail but just with different outfits and slightly different levels of confetti.

LET'S CHAT!

wedding photography

  • We provide a range of photography packages tailored to suit your needs, including our 6hr, 8hr and 10hr packages. We also offer 2-3 hour elopement packages (upon request).

Everything is customisable and we’re happy to chat with you and coordinate something to suit your budget/wedding day timeline.

Our approach to photography is a blend of candid storytelling and lightly posed shots, giving you the best of both worlds. We aim to keep our images as true to life as possible, enhancing each photo to reflect how you remember the day rather than desaturating or altering its natural feel. You’ll feel comfortable and natural in front of our lens, as we guide you with gentle direction to capture genuine smiles and meaningful moments.
