Our Approach

We understand that getting photos taken can be super daunting and sometimes awkward. Thats why we exist! At Dress Code Photography, we strive to facilitate an open, relaxed space for you to simply be yourselves and forget the cameras are even there! We focus on candid, natural imagery but there is a specific shot you have in mind, simply let us know - we want to make sure we have all bases covered! At the end of it all, we want something you can look back on and laugh at, or re-live in years to come.

How soon after will I receive my photos?
Your memories are our priority! We offer a teaser gallery within 48 hours, and aim to have your package finalised to you within 2 to 3 weeks.

Do we travel?
Who doesn’t love a road trip!? We want to be able to always capture your day so we are more then happy to travel to your location. We generally focus on photographing within New South Wales including Regional, Wagga Wagga, Blue Mountains and Sydney. But if you have a location elsewhere, shoot us a message and we will try to accomodate!

How long will we need a photographer for?
Every event is different and we don’t want to miss any part of your day. If you are unsure, we can sit down for a chat and discuss our recommendations based on your day.

If you think we sound like your type of photographers, please get in touch! We’d love to meet up for a coffee (or a beer!) - We also know that finding time can be tricky too, and thats fine - if you prefer we can also arrange an old-school phone call or new-school Zoom meeting for a quick chat too!

General Questions

Do I need two Photographers?
Almost always will there be at least a team of two photographers to cover your occasion. This allows us to capture special moments from different angles and add a variety of images for you to choose for your day.

Do you offer Video?
At the moment we do not offer videography. Coming soon…

Do you offer prints or albums?
Definitely! This is included in some of our packages, as well as an optional extra.

Testimonies

“I recently had the privilege of Dress Code Photography photograph my maternity shoot, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. As someone who has never been professionally photographed before, I was nervous in my own ability to get a nice photo where I didn’t look awkward.

Lauren and Jackson were an absolute delight to work with. Not only hard working ensuring I enjoyed the experience, but both were very confident in giving guided directions needed to capture the moment, providing memories of a great experience.

I received all my photos the next day, and I was beyond happy when I opened the email and saw the quality, candid photos I will cherish forever. I was so excited to show my family and friends, and I can’t wait for the day to show my daughter when she is older.

I cannot recommend Dress Code Photography enough!”

”Cannot fault Dress Code Photography, both Lauren and Jackson were super attentive before during and after our day. Photos were amazing and nothing was too much effort. Guests commented on how great the photographers were and everyone that has seen our photos and accompaniments have been amazed.”

Where do I begin! The moment we met Lauren and Jackson we were immediately at ease. They are fun, easy going and happy to sit back and catch the most wonderful candid moments we don’t get to see unless captured. It was magical seeing the pictures today and we cannot wait to use them again for our newborn shoot. Kind and patient towards our children who were quite wild and they just let them be and captured some stunning moments to be treasured forever!
