“My goal is simple: to capture your day in a way that feels natural, stylish and true to you. The kind of photos that look beautiful today and still feel like you years from now.”

For over a decade, Ali Bailey has been capturing weddings with a focus on style, connection, and the joy of a truly great celebration. She is drawn to couples who have a strong sense of style and a deep love for the people who surround them. Every frame she captures is designed to reflect not just the beauty of the day, but also the personal, intentional details and heartfelt moments that make each celebration unique.

Ali’s approach is rooted in honesty and attention to detail. She strives to create images where couples recognize themselves — nothing overly posed or contrived, just thoughtful, considered photography that tells the true story of their day. She takes the time to understand each couple’s vision and values, ensuring that not only the couple but also the family and guests who matter most are part of the narrative.


Originally from New Zealand, Ali has called Australia home for the past 14 years. She now lives in leafy Eltham, where she balances her work with her love of fashion, design, interiors, and frequent trips back to New Zealand. Whether she’s traveling, exploring local coffee spots, or finding inspiration in the world around her, Ali brings a considered and creative eye to everything she does.

Thank you won't ever be enough
My gosh, we actually can't get over how beautiful this album is! We knew there would be some photos we loved although are absolutely blown away by how many, and everything you two captured. So many special in-between moments of our family and friends, which is exactly what we were hoping for. Thank you won't ever be enough. We are going to cherish these images forever.

It was so special to relive the day through Ali's lens
We are totally in love with your photos! We took your advice and had a viewing party last night. It was so special to relive the day through your lens - you've captured all the joy and our special people so beautifully. We can see how you put thought into every photo - somehow you've managed to capture the emotions of the day on everyone's faces while still perfectly framing every photo. Each photo is like a piece of art. It really blew us away! We will treasure these photos all our life - thank you, thank you, thank you!

We could not be more grateful
Ali, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for yesterday. Your professionalism, sincerity, adaptability, and calm was incredible and we could not be more grateful for your presence and help throughout the day. From pinning buttonholes to keeping us on schedule, you did it all! Thank you for putting us both at ease and making everything so straightforward - for two people who don’t love to be photographed, you made us feel like it was the most natural thing in the world. I hope you got home ok and get to enjoy a little bit of Hobart while you’re here too! Thank you a million times over!
