Jake & Teoni
Your day, in your words
You came to us through family — three weddings we’ve had the privilege of capturing — and you’re photographers yourselves, far more used to being behind the camera than in front of it. What you asked for is simple to say and worth getting right: photo and film that work as one, and the small moments kept as carefully as the big ones.
The shape of it: a Greek Orthodox ceremony, private vows at your spot by the Opera House, and a full night at The Linseed House.
Photo and film, as one
One in-house team, so your photographer and cinematographer work as a pair rather than two vendors chasing the same angle. Seamless on the day, consistent in the edit.
At ease in front of the camera
You know the difference between being posed and being guided. We guide where it helps — light, position, something to get you moving — and let the rest simply happen.
The small moments, too
A glance across the room, a hand on a shoulder at home, the quiet minute before the car. The planning is what makes room for them, so they’re not lost between the bigger moments.
Your vows, by the harbour
After the church, a private moment at your spot near the Opera House — just the two of you, both mic’d so every word is kept — then photos there with your bridal party.
All of the night
Your bridal party’s entrance and yours, every speech, the first dance, the Greek dancing and the dance floor — the reception kept in full, not just its headlines.
Flow of the day
Here’s the day as it stands today. We refine every timing together at your planning session — church, travel and light included — so nothing gets rushed.
Jake’s preparations
Teoni’s preparations
Ceremony
Including the certificate signing with your immediate family, and a group photo with every guest out the front.
Private vows & photoshoot
Your vows first, just the two of you — then the bridal party, finishing as the light softens toward sunset.
Reception
Personal vows at the church, too?
Some Greek Orthodox churches allow couples to add personal vows to the ceremony — it’s worth asking your priest once the church is chosen.
If yours does, you could share a few words in front of your family at the church and keep the harbour for the private ones — or keep every word for the harbour. Either way, we’ll plan the day around it.
Final timings and locations are refined together as we get closer to the day.
Why two full teams
Your two mornings run at the same time — Jake in Ingleburn, Teoni in Panania. So a second team isn’t an upgrade here; it’s what it takes for neither morning to be missed. Each team is a photographer and a cinematographer, and both come together for the church and the harbour. What changes between collections is how far the second team runs into the night.
With you all day
From the morning through to the end of the reception (~11:30 PM), with locked-off cameras running through the night alongside the handheld work — so the room is covered from every angle without anyone crowding the floor.
How far into the night
Where a day gets squeezed is rarely the ceremony — that sets its own pace. It’s the morning, and the half hour straight after the church: congratulations, the certificate, the group photo with everyone. That’s where we act as your timekeepers. We don’t make the day longer — we make sure you’re present in the time you have.
With a full Greek reception, the formalities are where a second team genuinely earns its place — which is why Your Story is the collection we’d point you to.
Your films & photographs
Four ways to relive the day, from a quick share to the full record — and every photograph alongside them. Tap through a real example of each; yours will be shaped around your own moments and music.
Teaser Film
A 45–60 second teaser, delivered within two weeks in both vertical and horizontal formats — the first taste while the day is still fresh, and easy to share. Included in every collection.
Highlight Film
A cinematic edit of five to eight minutes, shaped around your vibe, your music and the moments that matter most. Style, pace and how much of your own words sit under it are settled together at your creative planning session.
Episode-Length Film
A 30–40 minute edit in the order the day unfolded — or a Love Story of up to 20 minutes, woven around your own words. A natural fit for a day built around your vows.
Documentary Film
The deepest record of the day — the full ceremony, the formalities and the dancing kept at real length. The archive you return to for years.
available
Prewedding & Engagement Film
A short film in the lead-up to the wedding — time together in front of the camera before the day, and a keepsake in its own right.
A Full Wedding Gallery
No cap on how many photographs we take. Every image professionally edited, in colour and black & white, and delivered to a private online gallery you can download from and share.

Add-ons can be selected straight from your quote, and the total updates as you go.
You experience your wedding three times
Before
In the planning — the run sheet we build together, the church, the harbour and the drive between, and the creative session where we settle the music and the feel. So the day flows, and nothing is rushed.
The Day
As it happens — two teams quietly keeping time, from Ingleburn and Panania through the church and the harbour to the last dance, so you’re present for it rather than managing it.
For Life
In the years after — the vows you’ll hear again, the faces in that group photo out the front, the dance floor at The Linseed House. The film you share now, and the archive you return to.
Some moments reveal their value only with time.
