About Me - Ava Me Photography

I can help you save the most beautiful and elegant moments of your big day.

Hello! I’m Joel

I STRIVE TO CAPTURE ALL THE EMOTIONS AND THE MOMENTS

I discovered wedding photography about 5 years ago, after having only a casual interest in landscape and travel photography. The emotions, the tension and amazing beauty of two people celebrating their love, enjoying time with their family and close friends - nothing can beat that. I shot my first wedding for fun. My cousin was on the lookout for someone to capture their day in the Blue Mountains, so I gathered my very meager camera at the time, and did my best to capture everything I could. Well 5 years later, I still get mega emotional when ever the bride walks down the aisle and the groom sees her for the first time, and I still might tear up at speech time.

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into my wedding photography. I've traveled across Australia and worked with so many amazing people. Yet, the most rewarding part is still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more.

Beyond photography, I spend the rest of my time with my beautiful soulmate, Annie, and my two amazing kids, Ava (yes the namesake of this place) and Jacob . I love keeping fit and will find any excuse to workout, and indulge in the odd game of basketball. A healthy mind needs a healthy body, right?
