Hi, I'm Thomas.

I've been into photography since I was a teenager, long before Nine16 or weddings. I love art, especially the old masters, and when I'm not shooting weddings I'm usually somewhere else in the world with a camera, shooting street photography: real people, real moments, nothing staged. That work has been featured in All About Photo, and on pages including Artist Close-Up, Street Meet Up and Street Photography International.

Nine16 is that same instinct, pointed at weddings. I turn up early, stay low key, and shoot the day as it actually happens, from the morning nerves to the dance floor at 11pm when nobody's posing for anything. No rigid shot lists, no forced smiles held for the camera. Just the day, as it is.

I'm based in the Illawarra and shoot weddings from Wollongong down through the South Coast NSW, including Kiama, Berry, Shoalhaven, Jervis Bay and Ulladulla, and I'll happily travel further for the right day.

Let's talk about your day
