As a former bride, my wedding day was the best day of my life!
I remember the nerves, the emotion, the way it all moved so quickly. That experience shapes how I approach wedding photography. I know what it feels like to be in your shoes and I know how important it is to have someone steady by your side.
My role is simple. I create space for you to actually live your wedding day. I guide you when you need direction, keep things calm when timelines shift and quietly capture the candid, emotional moments unfolding around you.
The teary first look. Your best friend owning the dance floor. Your parents watching it all with pride. The real moments always matter more than perfection.
hello
Hi, I'm Steph
A CANBERRA-BASED Wedding Photographer
Over the years, I’ve built a reputation for being both warm and decisive. Couples trust me because I care deeply, but I also know when to step in and lead. Your wedding photography experience should feel supported and organised, never stressful or forced.
Outside of weddings, you’ll find me chasing after my sweet but super active toddler (boy mum things), training for my next powerlifting competition, attempting reformer pilates with little grace or camping in the Snowy Valleys.
I’m an introvert at heart and love quiet nights at home, but I genuinely enjoy sitting down with couples over coffee to hear your story and understand what matters most to you.
If you are looking for a Canberra wedding photographer who will prioritise real moments, guide you with calm confidence and care about your day as much as you do, I would love to connect.
"Perfect perfect perfect! If we could give 6 stars, we would! Steph did our engagement shoot and then our wedding. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to capture those special days! She is very polite, professional and was very good at telling us what to do and making us feel comfortable infront of the camera. The photos turned out amazingly! We can’t thank her enough!"
GEORGIA & JACK
"After seeing Steph’s amazing photos from one of our friend’s weddings, my husband and I had our hearts set on having Steph photograph our wedding too - and we are so glad she did!
We are so so so grateful we have these memories to look at and can’t recommend Acacia and Grace Photography enough."

When you book with me, you are choosing more than wedding photography.
You are choosing images that feel like your day. Honest, emotional, and timeless. The kind you will return to in twenty years and still feel in your chest.
You are choosing a wedding experience that feels supported from start to finish. I will guide you when you need direction, keep things steady when timelines shift, and ensure you never feel awkward or unsure in front of the camera. You do not need to know how to pose. It's my job to help you.
Depending on the collection you choose, your experience may also include extended coverage, albums designed to last generations or videography packages. Everything is built to give you exactly what you need, without pressure or overwhelm.
Real over perfect. Always.
I can't wait to capture images that
reflect you
"So very happy with the photos we got from Steph! I still can’t stop staring at the beautiful memories she captured"
