Dimitri & Deonie
Your day, in your words
You came to us through family — Deonie, you’re Paul’s sister, and it was lovely to connect over the wedding coming together. We’ll look after you both the way we did for Paul and Marie.
What you described was clear: photo and video as one connected team, capturing the day as it really happens — natural, joyful, plenty of candour, and the fun of the two of you in front of the camera. And someone there from the first moment of the morning through to the last of the night.
Two of you, two mornings
Dimitri getting ready in Connells Point, Deonie in Earlwood — two homes at the same time. A full team at each, so neither morning is missed, and both meet at St Nicholas for the angles.
Natural and joyful
Photos that feel like you — candid, a lot of laughter, less posing and more of the real day. Your full gallery comes in colour and a complete black-and-white version too.
There to the very end
Coverage from the getting-ready through to the final send-off — so nothing between the first look and the farewell goes unrecorded. That was the one thing you both wanted locked in.
A film to share, and one to keep
A five-minute highlight — the one you sit down and send to everyone. And, if you want it, a longer documentary record of the ceremony and formalities you return to as the years pass.
Flow of the day
You’re choosing between two dates while the reception hold transfers across, so here are both side by side. The shape of the day is the same either way — September simply runs a touch later than July. We refine the exact timings together closer to the day.
Saturday, 4 September
Saturday, 31 July
Final timings and locations are refined together as we get closer to the day.
Why two teams
Your two mornings run at the same time in different homes — Dimitri in Connells Point, Deonie in Earlwood. So a second team in the morning isn’t an upgrade here, it’s the baseline: a photographer and videographer with each of you, then both at St Nicholas so the ceremony is covered from more than one angle. What changes between collections is how far that second team runs into the day.
With you start to finish
A photographer and videographer with you from the morning through to the end of the reception (~12:00 AM), running three to four locked-off video cameras through the night alongside the handheld work — so the room already looks multi-angle without a second team standing in it.
How far into the day
Straight answer: the photoshoot is where a second team adds the most — a second angle on the two of you in the creative window — which is why Your Story is the collection we’d point you to. The one thing that could tip you to the Complete Collection is the reception: Rosebery Hall is a long room, and if you land on the double-staircase entrance where you come down and meet in the middle, a second team following you in while the first holds the front is exactly the moment it buys.
Your films
A few ways to relive the day, from a quick share to the full record. Tap through a real example of each — yours is shaped around your own moments and music at a creative planning session.
Teaser Film
A 45–60 second clip, delivered within two weeks of the wedding — the first taste while the day is still fresh, and lovely to share. Complimentary in every collection.
Highlight Film
A cinematic five-minute edit, shaped around your vibe, your music and the moments that matter most. The film you sit down and share — style and pace settled together at your creative planning session.
Episode-Length Film
A 30–40 minute edit that sits between the highlight and the full documentary — the long story with the fast-forward parts pulled out. The core moments, beautifully paced, easy to rewatch. Available as an add-on to any collection.
Documentary Film
The deepest record of the day — the full ceremony, the formalities and the dancing kept at real length. The archive you park for years, then return to — the film that gains value with time. Basic, Standard and Extended flavours across the collections.
A full wedding gallery
There’s no cap on how many photos we take — the whole day, professionally edited into a clean online gallery you can view, download in high resolution and share. It comes in colour and a complete black-and-white version, stays online for you to return to, and lands on your hard drive too.

Add-ons
A few things you can fold into any collection. Nothing here is decided now — we price it against the collection you choose and add it straight to your quote.
Episode-Length Film
The 30–40 minute middle-length film — longer than the highlight, easier than the full documentary. A chronological Episode Doco, or a shorter, story-driven Love Story cut.
Radiant Leather Album
A 14″×10″ handmade leather album, 40 sides, crafted in New Zealand by Queensberry’s artisans. Included in the Complete Collection; easy to add to either of the others, now or after the wedding.
Pre-Wedding Photo Session
A relaxed hour or two together before the wedding — less about posing, more about getting comfortable in front of the camera so nothing feels new on the day. Included from Your Story up.
Extended Documentary Upgrade
Takes the Standard documentary up to the full-length archival edit — extended preps and cultural traditions, photo-session highlights, each dance bracket doubled, plus bouquet, garter and farewells.
You experience your wedding three times
Before
In the planning — the run sheet we build together, the creative session where we settle the music and the feel, so the day flows and nothing is rushed.
The Day
As it happens — present for the real moments, out of the way, letting the day unfold while both teams quietly document every part of it.
For Life
In the years after — the highlight you share now, and the record you return to in five, ten, fifteen years, when the people and moments in it grow more precious.
Some moments reveal their value only with time.
