Raquelle believes in blending seamlessly into each wedding day, allowing the natural flow to remain uninterrupted so she can capture every moment authentically.

Her approach is rooted in documentary-style storytelling, focusing on real, unscripted moments while applying an editorial eye that adds refinement and intention to each image.

Throughout the day, Raquelle documents spontaneous, genuine moments as they unfold, preserving the raw emotions and memories for couples to cherish. During bridal portraits, she seeks out beautiful light and provides gentle direction to create truly romantic images.

She strives to capture what makes each love story unique, documenting it in a way that feels both modern and timeless.

Raquelle photographs weddings using completely silent shutters, capturing every moment without distraction.

This approach allows her to document intimate vows, quiet emotions, and candid moments naturally, ensuring the flow of the day remains uninterrupted.

Many couples ask about the wedding day timeline. To help, Raquelle provides an exclusive Playbook, described by past clients as “the bible”, offering expert guidance drawn from over a decade of experience. Once a wedding is confirmed, couples gain access to this invaluable planning tool.

Raquelle has curated an exceptional list of recommended wedding vendors, from cinematographers to florists. Recognising that most photographers have preferred collaborators, this carefully selected list is exclusively available to couples who have booked with Modern Romantics.

When it comes to cinematography, Raquelle’s list features seasoned professionals whose style aligns seamlessly with her team, ensuring a cohesive and fluid capture of the entire day.

Raquelle’s philosophy on retouching is rooted in capturing the genuine essence of each wedding day without alteration. Her goal is to authentically portray couples as they are in the moment, encouraging them to embrace and appreciate themselves naturally.

Each gallery is thoughtfully curated and edited in Raquelle’s signature color profile. Delivery typically takes 3–4 weeks, though during peak season it may take slightly longer.

Modern Romantics is based in Sydney, and travel is included for weddings within a 50 km radius of Sydney CBD (all wedding-day locations must fall within this radius).

Raquelle is also happy to travel nearly anywhere to capture your special day. Couples are encouraged to review travel details and associated expenses as outlined in the pricing guide.

Due to high demand, Raquelle operates on a first-come, first-served basis and is unable to hold dates.

To secure a wedding date, a $1,200 retainer is required at the time of booking, along with a signed contract and completed booking form. The remaining balance is due one month before the wedding day.
