OUTSHINE THE USUAL
OUTSHINE THE USUAL
Leave it to us to snap the secret glances, the bold dance floor moves, and every moment that celebrates the story of your special day. Wedding and elopement photography isn’t just about showcasing pretty portraits – we wrap up the whole damn highlight reel, from vow-time to when you’re stuffing your face at the dessert table. (Been there, done that. Would do it again.)
It’s your day. Let’s make it look like you.
While Splendour Visuals specialises in documentary-style wedding photography, we also offer lifestyle shoots for couples, families and commercial branding. Choose from digital or analogue photography or a mix of both to capture the full scope of your story. You know – the big picture stuff!.

We've got a massive soft spot for analogue photography - its perfectly imperfect qualities and all the feels of nostalgic, make it forever a win in our books! There’s an organic quality to this medium that adds an extra layer of authenticity and wonder to each image, making a memorable statement in your photo album.

Cannot thank you enough for how grateful we are that you captured our day so perfectly."

"Having Kate as our wedding photographer was probably the best decision we made out of all the decisions for our big day. Her communication before the event put us at such ease and on the day she was the most fabulous presence and made everything relaxing and enjoyable. Our photos are also just so special and we look forward to treasuring them forever - we were truly blown away by how good they are!"
"The Best decision we made out of all of the decisions for our big day"
"Kate has this incredible gift of capturing each and every special moment of your day in a way that makes you want to relive it all over again. Beyond pure skill and talent, which she certainly has plenty of, she adds her own brand of sensitivity, personality, and fun that not only translates into the photos but also makes her an awesome person to be around. Kate - your photos truly captured the heart and soul of our wedding day. We can't think you enough"
