BASED IN SYDNEY, TRAVEL EVERYWHERE
Are you worrying that the magic of your wedding day will be forgotten over time?
I will capture every beautiful moment, so you can re-live your special day for years to come
Welcome to the beginning of your love story
Planning a wedding is exciting - but let’s be honest, it can also feel completely overwhelming.
With so many decisions to make, emotions running high, and timelines flying by, it’s easy to feel like everything’s happening all at once.
You’re juggling a million moving pieces. You want your day to be beautiful, yes - but more than anything, you want it to feel like you.
Real, joyful, and full of the people and moments that matter most.
You might be worried about missing those fleeting moments - the look on your partner’s face when you walk down the aisle, your dad’s speech, your best friend’s happy tears, the way the light hits during golden hour.
You don’t want to forget a thing - but you also don’t want to spend your day stressing over how it’s being captured.
You want to be present. You want to soak it all in, knowing someone you trust is there, quietly documenting the magic as it unfolds -
so you can relive it all, exactly as it happened.
You want to remember your wedding day exactly as it felt -
full of love, big laughs, and all the little moments in between. That quick glance before the aisle walk? The happy tears, the wild dance floor moves, your grandma throwing down like she’s 25 again? Yeah, all of that.
You're not here for stiff poses or a video that feels like every other wedding on the internet. You want something that feels real.
Something that feels so you, it practically talks back.
A visual story that makes you laugh, cry, and say “Remember that?!” every single time you watch it.
Most of all? You want to enjoy your day without worrying about what’s being captured.
You want someone you can trust to get the magic - even the stuff you didn’t see happening - without turning your wedding into a photo shoot
YOUR WEDDING IS ABOUT YOUR STORY.
Let me tell it to the rest of the world
I know that my documentary style and natural approach is not for everyone. And that’s completely fine.
You don’t want a photographer whose personality or work doesn’t align with yours or your vision.
Most of the time I’ll be documenting the day being invisible. I’ll mic you up, place my lights and cameras where needed, in order to achieve the best picture, I’ll move around to find best angles.
And from time to time guide you to achieve the best composition.
" 100% recommend Rafal as a photographer! The whole process from booking, organising and the delivery of his work had been stress free and easy. "
" We were so happy with the work Rafael did for us. He went above and beyond to make our day special and we both loved his video and photography work. Can't recommend him enough! "
" Rafal exceeded our expectations by far. With his prompt and helpful communication to the incredible images and video, we could not have been happier. His dedication, passion and ability to make us feel comfortable really showed in the final product. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!! "
" I'm not a photo person however Rafal done a wonderful job of making it fun and relaxing. He also had lots of posing tricks up his sleeve. "
" He is a high quality photographer with attention to detail and focus on beautifully set shots and natural lightening. "
That’s where I come in.
At Raphael Media, I don’t just show up with a camera - I show up ready to tell your love story with heart, humor, and probably a few happy tears
(yes, I will 100% cry during your vows and speeches).
I’m not here to stage your day - I’m here to document the real stuff. The in-between glances, the ridiculous dance moves, the genuine belly laughs.
I know when to gently guide and when to vanish into the background so the magic can unfold naturally .
With years of experience capturing weddings big and small, wild and whimsical, I bring calm vibes, creative eyes, and just the right amount of hype.
Need a pep talk before your first look? I got you.
Want someone to fix your veil, hold your drink, or scream “I LOVE THAT!!! ” during golden hour portraits? Say less.
This is your story. I’m just lucky enough to be the one who gets to capture it
Here’s how we keep it simple, stress-free, and super personal:
Connect – Schedule a call so we can get to know you, your vibe, and your vision.
Plan – We’ll craft a custom timeline and approach that fits your day like a glove.
Capture – On the big day, we’ll be everywhere and nowhere - quietly capturing the candid, the emotional, and the once-in-a-lifetime.
Deliver – You’ll receive a collection of stunning, heartfelt photos and films that instantly transport you back.
Your wedding film isn’t just for the day after your wedding - or even the year after.
Its true value lives in the decades to come. When the cake is long gone, the dress is packed away, and the memories start to blur, your film becomes a time machine.
It’s what you’ll pull out on anniversaries, rainy Sundays, and random nights when nostalgia hits.
It’s what you’ll show your kids when they ask what your wedding was like—and your grandkids when they want to see how it all began.
Not just to see how it looked, but to feel how it felt. To hear your vows, your voices, the laughter in the room. To remember people you love, just as they were.
That’s the kind of story we tell - one that grows more precious with every passing year. This isn’t just a wedding video. It’s your legacy, beautifully captured, forever.
It’s time to tell your story, and it deserves to be told with heart.
Let’s make something beautiful together.
