Great Ideas for your Wedding Location Photos

What is a Photo-Rich Location?

Luckily for us, Sydney is a beautiful city with plenty of inspiring locations for your wedding photography.

The best places are what we call ‘photo rich’ locations which provide a mix of angles, colours, textures and moods. Photographers with a good eye have the ability to create a diverse collection of photos which look like they’ve been taken in different locations. This is particularly beneficial for weddings that run on a tight schedule or don’t have time for multiple photography sites.

Great Photo Locations in Every Corner of Sydney

Depending on the location of your ceremony and reception, our photographer will make recommendations on great photographic locations from Sydney CBD to the Northern Beaches, Eastern Suburbs, The Hills District and Western Suburbs.

Some favourite locations are collated below and show the variety of styles at our disposal, including a short description from our Principal Photographer about why he loves each location.

Keyword search is available on our blog to help you find other great locations around Sydney. Either choose a wedding location from the drop-down menu or search by key words.

Angel Place Laneway Art

Martin Place, Sydney CBD

Wedding photo locations Sydney - Angel Place Cages Angel Place, just near Ash Street in Sydney CBD, features an installation referred to as ‘Forgotten Songs’. It’s fascinating and it’s visually spectacular. It’s just off Martin Place which is another photo-rich location (see below).


Around Argyle Street

The RocksWedding photo locations Sydney - Palaisaide Hotel The RocksThis is just one of the many, many shots I have taken on Argyle Street. It’s hard to summarise this location in one photo because it’s filled with interesting architecture from historic pubs and houses, to alleyways and secret little corners. If you’re anywhere near The Rocks on your wedding day we’ll probably end up here because there are so many options around this area.


The Royal Botanic Gardens

The Domain, Sydney CBD

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Botanical GardensThe Royal Botanic Gardens are rich grounds (pardon the pun) for your ceremony and location photos. We’ve photographed wedding ceremonies in various parts of this amazing garden, each with its own unique feel whether you’re after expansive lawns, shaded areas, ponds or fountains.


Bradley’s Head Amphitheatre

Sydney Harbour National Park

Wedding Photography Locations Sydney - Bradley's Head AmpitheatreNot all photos in Sydney need to be taken on the southern side of the Bridge! I love the view from here with our city’s key icons creating a sensational backdrop. On sunny days the water shimmers and we get a gorgeous blue sky, and on gloomier days when the stormy clouds appear it’s a very dramatic setting.


Camp Cove Beach

Watsons Bay

Wedding Photography Locations Sydney - Camp Cove Watsons BayAn Eastern Suburbs favourite with plenty of spectacular options all within walking distance (yes, in heels too). Apart from the obvious beach setting, other favourite shots include the dramatic cliffs, army forts and sweeping views towards Sydney Harbour. Plus, Camp Cove gets last light of the day so there is opportunity for amazing sunset shots.


Chapel Hill Retreat

Berambing NSW, in the foothills of Mt Tomah in the Blue Mountains

Wedding Photography Locations Sydney - Chappel Hill BerambingA beautiful rural setting in the foothills of Mt Tomah in the Blue Mountains. One of the best garden settings I’ve seen with a charming chapel, a new function room and onsite accommodation. It’s bonus points if we get fog on your wedding day to add even more atmosphere to a location that’s perfect from the get go. All four seasons look fabulous at this location.


Cockle Bay

Darling Harbour

Wedding Photography Locations Sydney - Cockle Bay Darling HarbourThis is a great wet weather option in Sydney CBD, particularly if your ceremony or reception are around Darling Harbour. It has a clean and modern architectural style. Awesome angles and leading lines – plus you get to relax and ride the escalator for a few minutes.


Dendy Cinema

Circular Quay

Wedding Photography Locations Sydney - Dendy Cinemas Circular QuayStanding in the centre of that chequered floor, the bride and groom have a totally different perspective on how the photo will look so there is always a little gasp of amazement when they finally see it. As a bonus, this wedding location is great in wet weather.


Hyde Park

Sydney CBD

Wedding Photography Locations Sydney - Hyde ParkThis is the oldest public parkland in Australia and with over 16 hectares of gorgeous vegetation, alleyways and decorative street lamps your photos are guaranteed to turn out superb. Plus, even on a busy day there is always somewhere to hide away from the crowds so you don’t get passers-by in the background.


Bare Island

La Perouse

Wedding photo locations Sydney - Bare Island La ParouseA unique and spectacular place that’s totally underutilised by brides and grooms who normally stick to more central locations. This place is extra dramatic on rainy days when the clouds come out and help create that menacing background.


Luna Park Sydney

Milsons Point

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Luna ParkA perfect location for a little fun. There is loads to see and do for a little afternoon fun after your ceremony, plus you can hold your reception here as well. The images will be less traditional if that’s what you’re looking for, as was the case for our bride who wore a red wedding dress.


Martin Place

Sydney CBD

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Martin PlaceA super rich location for photos and a great option for wet weather. It’s well worth coming here for the giant columns, long spectacular alleyway of the GPO, decorative features, textures and fancy doorways to use as backdrops. It’s great for night photos, especially after it has rained because the reflections in the wet floor add a magical touch.


Narrabeen Rockpool

Narrabeen Lagoon

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Narabeen Rock PoolA mid-north shore favourite, it’s one of the best rockpools in Sydney. I’m a fan of the rock shelf area which is great for reflections and splashing wave backdrops, and it’s hard to pass on the striking cliff line. It’s also easy to access by wedding cars and get around once you’ve arrived.


Observatory Hill

The Rocks

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Observatory HillObservatory Hill is a Sydney staple. Another iconic location that’s central and surrounded by other iconic locations. You can also have your wedding ceremony right there on the hilltop overlooking Sydney Harbour and the Bridge. Then it’s a quick dash to a huge variety of wedding venues around The Rocks.


Old King’s School

Parramatta

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Old Kings SchoolThe Old King’s School in Parramatta has fabulous architecture and feels a little like we’ve travelled back in time. We use this location for weddings held in areas such as The Hills or Western Sydney.


Palm Beach

Sydney’s Northern Beaches

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Palm Beach Rock PoolPalm Beach will not disappoint if you’re having a beach-side wedding. I particularly love this location in the late afternoon with a colourful sky and long shadows, plus we’re always guaranteed a breeze for a little extra movement of the hair and veil which brings photos to life.


Twin Creeks Golf and Country Club

Luddenham

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Twin Creeks Golf and Country Club LuddenhamAnother great wedding location outside the Sydney CBD. You can have your ceremony and reception here, as well as your location photos. It boasts long grass and manicured lawns, as well as the opportunity to pop out when the sun is setting to take a few more stunning shots just a few steps outside the reception hall.


Bombo Quarry

Kiama, NSW

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Bombo QuarryA truly unique location. I love the juxtaposition of a delicate wedding dress against the harsh terrain. Add a bright blue sky and a long veil and we have a striking wedding photo.


Lavender Bay

Wedding photography locations Sydney - Wendy's Secret Garden Lavender BayAt the risk of spoiling a good secret, Wendy’s Secret Garden is a quaint little place where I take couples who are getting married around North Sydney. It’s tucked away safely, giving you a little time out after the ceremony and before the party really hits at the reception. Plenty of leafage guarantees great photos.

Eloise and Will
WOW!! What can I say… OMG…lol. The photos are absolutely incredible! Matt, my family and myself could not be happier. We are so impressed! It took us about 2.5 hours to go through them and I still have not felt like I have seen them properly.
