  • A bride and groom are standing close together in an outdoor garden setting, with the bride holding a bouquet and the groom gently holding her. They are covered with a sheer veil. The background features tall trees, stone walls, lush greenery, and an arched stone structure with columns.

    CLIENT EXPERIENCE

    Oh my gosh, Raquelle & James!!! We are absolutely blown away. We can’t stop saying “oh my gosh” over and over! The sneak peek alone has left us speechless, but our whole galley… we have no words!!! Your talent is truly UNMATCHED!!! Thank you for capturing our day in the most beautiful and unique way. Having the two of you there was a total game changer, you each bring your own incredible skills, and yet somehow, we hardly noticed you being around during some moments that we now look back on with immense gratitude for having captured them.

    You’ve given us something we never thought we’d have: a glimpse of ourselves and our day that is all ours to keep forever. You saw the vision and made it even better than we could have imagined. You captured memories with our loved ones that we will cherish forever. We are so grateful to have had you there. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

    Lots of love,

    Sam + Aaron

    CLIENT EXPERIENCE

    “James and Raquelle, having you both there on our day was amazing. We were a little shy, but you made everything feel so relaxed, and the photos turned out absolutely stunning, we couldn’t believe it was us! Your care, professionalism, and attention to detail made our day feel even more special. We feel so lucky to have had you capturing these memories.”

    CLIENT EXPERIENCE

    Wow, wow, wow!! Raquelle and James, it has been such a pleasure meeting you both, and we are beyond grateful. We are IN LOVE with the photos, you truly captured the essence of us and our day. Looking through them together today, we couldn’t stop smiling and laughing. Especially the champagne photos… haha, so perfectly candid! And the shots in the pathway surrounded by foliage… Absolutely magical!!!!

    From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. 

    Love, 

    Cynthia + Suti

  • A bride and groom walking hand in hand on a staircase near the water at sunset, with the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge visible in the background.

    CLIENT EXPERIENCE

    “Raquelle & James, OMG, ‘absolutely obsessed’ doesn’t even begin to cover it. We were blown away to receive a sneak peek so quickly, and what a preview it was. We truly can’t wait to see the full gallery. Everything ran so seamlessly on the day, even with timing and lighting challenges, and every moment was captured beautifully. It’s a true testament to your talent and professionalism. We’re so grateful for everything you put into our day, both seen and behind the scenes.”

    Kirsty + Jake

  • A black and white photo of a man in a tuxedo and a woman in a white dress walking up a staircase inside a building, with ornate metal railings.

    CLIENT EXPERIENCE

    “From the very beginning, chatting with you Raquelle, we knew you understood the vision. We wanted something unique, a day that felt truly us, a little editorial, a little unexpected, and far from the status quo. We’re so grateful we connected over that shared vision, which ultimately led us to choosing you both to capture our day. Fast forward to a few weeks out, our virtual check-in was such a game-changer. You walked us through the run sheet so thoroughly, offering tips and tricks we still remember (“hands make an image come to life” is now a forever mantra as is "anchor"), you made everything feel so effortless, calm, and fun.

    On the day itself, from the moment you arrived at Teal’s family home, you were such a light and loving presence. You made us feel completely at ease, which is saying a lot given how camera-shy we can be, and you did the same for our families. James, you brought that same warmth and calm to Brody’s morning. You both genuinely felt like family, and it was such an honour to spend so much of our wedding day with you. You are both beyond talented, but even more than that, you’re incredible humans. Thank you for capturing the most special day of our lives with such heart, artistry, and care.

    With all our love and gratitude,

    Teal + Brody
