Wedding photos with soul, that feel true to you.

For couple who want something a lil bit different to what the textbook says to do.

A man and woman holding hands walking on city sidewalk, woman in white wedding dress and veil, man in dark suit and sunglasses.
A bride and groom walking outdoors on their wedding day, with a group of guests in the background. The bride is wearing a white dress with spaghetti straps, a birdcage veil, and holding a bouquet of white flowers. The groom is in a brown suit with a white shirt, a tie, and a boutonnière, holding a water bottle.

Let’s capture those mems in style, and have a lil laugh while we’re at it. I know that you want to enjoy your wedding day with your people, and I won’t be trying to get in the way of that.

Your day captured candidly, with a short ‘n’ sweet portrait session to prove how good you both look together.

Sounds good? Well, let me introduce myself.

Hello! I’m Cody O.

Cody is fine too, it just doesn’t quite have the same ring to it.

I fell into wedding photography nearly 5 years ago now, and it continues to be my dream job today.

Since my humble beginnings of doing some friends a favour, I’ve followed this photography dream across the globe and have photographed a bunch of weddings in London and the UK. How lucky am I?

I was even lucky enough to learn a thing or two from the incredible Kate Hampson while over in London. She kindly took these portraits for me, not to mention taught me everything that she knows about shooting weddings on film.

I’m currently based in Naarm / Melbourne Australia, but I frequently travel to Warrnambool and anywhere in between. I travel back to London as often as I can, and I’m only ever an enquiry away from anywhere else.

Wondering how I might slot into your wonderful wedding?

Well…

We’re going to avoid the uncomfortably drawn out posing sessions.

You don’t want that, and I don’t want to put you through that.

A man and woman dressed in formal attire stand on a city street corner, smiling at each other. The man is wearing a dark suit and sunglasses, while the woman is in a white strapless dress with large sunglasses. Tall buildings and parked cars are visible in the background.
A bride and groom holding hands and smiling at each other in an arched, rustic, and historic building interior decorated with small hanging lamps.

Don’t get it twisted though. We will run off for a short, but very sweet couples portrait session.

You’re going to be looking bloody good and we want some evidence of that!

I’ll keep the vibe nice and relaxed to ensure you’re feeling good while doing so.

Prior to and following the aforementioned ‘short but sweet portrait session’, I tend to roam with a candid documentary photographer mode to capture the other parts of the day as they naturally unfold.

During this time, I’m only ever a hola away if you decide that you would like some more portraits or group shots.

This approach provides a nice behind the scenes style perspective of your wedding.

The laughs, the smiles, the naps, and the interactions that you may otherwise miss, all captured by yours truly.

A woman wearing a red shirt with rose embroidery is sleeping with her head resting on her hand at a restaurant table. The table has a large rectangular pizza with toppings including green peppers and mushrooms. On the table, there are drinks, including a glass of soda with lime, a glass of water, and bottles of alcohol. The background features graffiti-style posters and photographs on a brick wall, with one prominent poster featuring the band Pink Floyd and a collage of images.
People riding on a double-decker red bus with some holding onto the railing, one woman with a yellow dress and a woman with long brown hair waving, a young man in a beige suit, and an older man with a grey beard and black suit, holding onto the bus railing, and a woman with a floral dress in the background.

I choose to photograph on film for its timeless aesthetic and nostalgic appeal. I believe that the results stand out and feel unique in today’s overly digital world.

I will however always have a digital camera or two on hand - so if that is your preference just say the word.

If you like the vision, let’s chat about it.
