Channon went above and beyond for our wedding. My wife and I are very grateful for the efforts she put in to capture so many special moments from our big day. We definitely recommend Channon for your photography needs.
HI, I'M CHANNON - BUT YOU CAN CALL ME SHANNON
I'm Perth's tiniest wedding photographer. I'm what you'd call "fun-sized," or as one groomsman generously put it, a "pocket rocket." Don't let the height fool you though. I move fast, I climb on chairs without asking, and I will absolutely lie on the ground for the right shot.
I've been doing this long enough that odds are good I've already photographed someone you know,your cousin's wedding, your best mate's newborn, that one you scrolled past on Instagram and thought "wait, I know them." Perth's a small place like that.
When I'm not elbow-deep in confetti or hunting down the best light at golden hour, I'm probably convincing someone's grandma to do "just one more" photo. I take the job seriously. And i just know grandmas photo becomes a treasured keepsake!
WHY ME?
Here's the honest pitch: I'm really bloody good at my job.
- I've got 70+ five-star reviews: From real people, not my mum (although she'd give me five stars too.
- I've photographed over 200 real weddings: From grand Church weddings to International weddings, luxury elopements and simple fun weddings. I have seen and done it all.
- I direct when it counts, disappear when it doesn't: I can shoot couple portraits in 30 minutes if I have to - it's a real super power
- I'll get your family photos done fast so you can actually make it to cocktail hour.
- I make nervous people laugh in front of the camera. It's basically a party trick at this point.
- I will sympathy cry. When the groom cries when he sees his beautiful bride for the first time, or when the bride says her vows and they are so heartfelt, I can feel the love.
- Fast turnaround: You won't be waiting a year to relive your own wedding

HOW TO SECURE A DATE
Step1
Let’s connect
And see if we like each other.
My favourite way is to meet over a coffee. I promise you, there is no obligation to book me, But we need to get along. I believe this is the best way to chat and really get a sense of what you are looking for. We can talk about your budget , vision and expectations. That way I can tailor a package to exactly what you need. I will send over a basic investment structure so you can make an informed decision.
Step 2
Secure your date
Once you have decided we are the right fit, I will send over a booking form and invoice for a retainer. From here, you will receive all my wedding tips and advice and ongoing support as you plan your day.
Step 3
Your Wedding day
On the day itself, you can simply be present. I will arrive 15 minutes early and I’ll guide when needed, lift the energy when it’s low, calm it when nerves set in, and capture your story as it naturally unfolds, the big moments, the quiet moments, and everything in between.
Step 4
What to Expect After your wedding Day
After your wedding, your images are carefully curated and edited with intention and only by me.
I do not, and will not use AI.
Within 15 - 20 working days
you’ll receive your digital gallery .
If you have ordered an album, these take several weeks to design and print.

Why Tales of Light?
A story is never just a single moment: It is always shaped by emotion, movement, and meaning.
Some stories reveal themselves naturally, raw and unfiltered. Others take form through collaboration, sparked by an idea or a feeling. Every story has its beginning and its end, but it’s the quiet, in-between moments where magic happens.
Light is what breathes life into those stories.
Photography, in its purest form, is the art of noticing light. The softness of early morning, the hush of window light, the flicker of candlelight, the glow of the moon, the play between shadow and illumination. Light builds atmosphere and feeling, turning an image into something you don’t just see, but experience.
Tales of Light exists where these two elements come together. Where stories are told through light.
While my work leans toward a calm and thoughtful style, the way I show up on your wedding day is warm, lively, and fully present. I bring an easy energy that helps settle nerves, while also lifting the mood when it’s needed most. I connect, I laugh, I guide, and I intuitively tune into the moment; adapting to whatever you need.
Whether it’s offering calm during quieter pauses or bringing a spark of energy when things dip, my focus is always the same: helping you feel comfortable, supported, and completely yourselves. Because when you feel at ease, the most genuine moments naturally unfold, and those are the ones worth capturing.
This is storytelling grounded in presence, connection, and emotion.
Stories that draw you in, stay with you, and call you back time and time again.
FAQ
What style of wedding photography do you shoot?
Bold, cinematic, and editorial — with genuine warmth at the heart. I'm drawn to dramatic light, considered composition, and images that feel like stills from a film rather than a checklist of moments. The result is a gallery that holds up in an album in twenty years, not just on Instagram next week. If you want your wedding photographed with real artistic intention, that's exactly what I do.
How much does wedding photography in Perth cost?
Elopement and one-hour wedding photography coverage starts at $650/hr. For couples wanting a fuller experience, Luxe Packages start at $1,800 for two hours of coverage. Every package is designed to give you something genuinely worth keeping not just a USB of files. Get in touch to discuss what's right for your day.
Do you photograph weddings at Old Tower House?
Yes! And it's one of my favourite venues in Perth. The architecture, the light, the sense of occasion, gives me so much to work with. If you're planning an Old Tower House wedding, I'd love to talk about capturing it. I have especially designed packages just for this venue HERE
How do you help people who are nervous in front of the camera?
Honestly, most people are, and it shows in the photos when a photographer doesn't address it. From the moment we meet I'll give you clear, gentle direction so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands. By the time we're shooting couple portraits, most people forget the camera is there entirely. That's exactly when the best photographs happen.
How far in advance should we book a Perth wedding photographer?
For peak season (September through May) I'd recommend enquiring at least 9–12 months ahead. Elopements and intimate ceremonies can sometimes be arranged with less notice. Please reach out and I'll let you know what's available.
LETS BLOODY DO THIS
Thank you for considering me for your wedding day.
I am always deeply grateful when couples choose me to be part of such a special day in their lives.
If you are looking for a boring, generic photographer, I am not the right choice for you.
But if you want an eagle eye for beautiful photos and a fun time - we will get along brilliantly and I look forward to getting to know you and all your quirks.
