Testimonials

"Diane and Amber were the most perfect photographers for myself and my husband Joe because we really wanted to capture natural shots on the day! They were both so patient and snapped the photos in those moments you often don't know they are snapping away! Would book them again in a heartbeat"

- Lia Mucci

"Both myself and my fiancé are shy in front of cameras and not the most photogenic people. But Diane really made us so comfortable we actually had so much fun and our photos turned out so so amazing! I felt pretty in photos for the first time in my life. The photos that Diane takes are speechless. Not only do you look nice but they are full of emotions."

- Heeji & Yang

"Had our first view of the photos taken on our wedding day and they are magical. DeRay and Simcoe's work is timeless, classic, elegant and crisp, as my husband describes it. Diane and Amber are very talented and patient. Thank you Diane and Amber! If you want photographers who can capture beautiful timeless wedding photos, I highly recommend them to brides-to-be!"

- Cherilya & Jason

Hi I'm Diane, I shared this a while back on our other insta account but forgot to tell my story here too!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️ I was born in a small town in NZ called Masterton at the foothills of the Tararua ranges. One thing I still can’t get used to is how flat Perth is! In Masterton you can see the hills from everywhere, so beautiful especially when there is snow on the peaks. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️I changed high schools 4 times in 3 different countries. It was super hard on me, I forever seemed to have the wrong accent or be using the wrong words #badteenyears⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️Perth is my home now because my husband and daughter live here but I really have 2 homes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️ I have been married for 22 years and with my husband for 27 years. I was very young when we got married (like 12 lol). We have a 9 year old daughter, she has bright copper coloured hair and is the light of my life. I never wanted to have just one child but sometimes the universe doesn’t work the way you plan and I’m so grateful for her. She is obsessed with sport and keeping active! She does cricket, AFL & parkour, she definitely got those abilities from her Dad cause I’m an uncoordinated, unfit mess ha ha.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️ We have a kitten called Fletcher, sometimes I post photos of him in our stories, he is so funny & cheeky. He has a black tail with a white tip like he dipped it in paint! My daughter is obsessed with him & my husband pretends to hate him because he’s so naughty. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️ My fav colour is powdery pastel light blue, almost grey. My fav food is anything fruit and potato chips (not at the same time!) & my fav show is currently Stranger Things 3 but I’m also obsessed with renovation shows. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️ I don’t have many hobbies, unless you can count eating & Instagram! I volunteer at my daughter’s school uniform shop & team manage her Yr 3/4 football team. I also judge at the WA Photographer of the Year awards once a year as part of my role as a Master Photographer with the AIPP. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❤️ Thanks for reading and following us, I really appreciate all of you! Diane xx
Ahhh family photos... so important at a wedding but not the most exciting part of the day! This is where we take over and run the show for a while. We aren't "bossy" photographers but we will orchestrate the family photos for you and make them go as easily as possible. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We get together with you to make the family photo list before the wedding. There's sometimes awkward family dynamics to consider and we are very experienced with making everyone feel comfortable. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #wedding⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weddingphotography ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weddingphotographyperth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthweddingphotographer⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthbride⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthstyle⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthwedding ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bridetobe ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #love ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ##perthphotographer⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weddinginspo ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bride ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nikon ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthevents ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #weddingdress ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #pretty⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthisok⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #perthbridetobe

Flashback to better days for our string of pearls, it's looking a bit sad now. We need to repot it I think? Gosh keeping house plants is a roller coaster of emotions, one month you're a genius and then the next you feel like a failure lol.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ . #perthsocial #perthinfluencer #perthstartups #perthmarketing #perthblogger #perthnow #perthevents #perthlife #perth #perthcreatives #perthgram #perthhappenings #perthtodo #perthfashion #perthpop #perthstyle #seeperth #perthsmallbusiness #perthstyle #soperth #perthmums #perthisok #perthentrepreneur #entrepreneur #perthgirlboss #networkinginperth #businesstips #perthbusiness #houseplants #stringofpearls
