Byron bay and northern rivers wedding photography


Natural, emotive wedding photography across Byron Bay and the Northern Rivers — for couples who want their day captured honestly and beautifully.

 

My philosophy

Lasting memories through breathtaking, soulful imagery

Best friend doing up bride's dress before the ceremony
Beading detail on custom made wedding dress

My philosophy is simple — to document people in a way that feels honest, natural, and deeply felt. I’m drawn to real connection, quiet in-between moments, and the kind of imagery that brings you back to how it all felt, not just how it looked. Whether it’s a wedding, a growing family, or a season of change, I focus on creating photographs that feel true to you and the life you’re living right now.

Testimonials

To witness Carlie work is to see an artist in her element. Her photography captures the true magic of a moment, even the hidden magic that remains invisible to the naked eye. She possesses a rare gift for finding the unseen in every second, turning fleeting glances into timeless memories.

Yam and Eilam

Carlie's dedication and profound professionalism left us utterly awestruck. 'Above and beyond' doesn't begin to describe her ability to document our wedding in such a remote outback location. Despite having almost no time to familiarise herself with the environment, she embraced every challenge with a graceful stride. She didn't just take photos, she captured the very soul of our day and we are immensely grateful for that.

Rachel and Gav

We truly couldn’t be happier that we chose you as our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, you brought such a calm, warm presence. It made all the difference on such an emotional day.

Not just for us, but for our guests - so many commented on your professionalism, patience, and the beautiful energy you brought. It was incredibly comforting to have you there. And the photos… just wow! Natural, emotional, full of life, and capturing the most genuine moments.

We’re so grateful, and couldn’t recommend you more.
