Hey I'm Lachy
The artist who brings good vibes & calm energy to your wedding day.
There's so much more to wedding photography than just capturing the big moments, it's about making sure you're both feeling comfortable & enjoying the whole experience too. When you're relaxed, natural moments flow & I'll be right there reading the room & observing little interactions to document all the real moments of pure joy.
"You captured every single moment so well we can feel the joy, love & family shine so bright through the photos. Forever grateful that you were the one to capture our day" Fi & Bern
I've spent years honing my craft & refining my approach to documenting weddings but the vision has always been the same...capture the best memories from your day in beautiful light!
The emotion, the details & the interactions between you & your loved ones, as well as the big moments throughout the day.

"We were crying happy tears when we saw the sneak peeks & again when we saw the whole gallery" - Sarah & James
"Lachy's use of light in his photography is simply stunning. We went with you because of how you captred the lighting in your images. The colouring, the moments you got are just perfect" - Lizzie & Justin
"Your relaxed nature put us both at ease, made everything so effortless & your work is incredible. I am IN LOVE with the film & analog ones. The candid ones of our family & friends really capture the day beautifully" - Taryn & Luke
"Lachy takes the time to get to know you, what you want, what your vision is, and how to make it work. In saying that - he's so talented and has such a good eye that you can give him no clue as to what you're looking for, and he'll still capture it. Looking through his work over & over again never fails to leave me reliving the day, because somehow he's managed to capture the feeling, not just the moment. And it's beautiful" Â - Â Emily

What makes Dust & Salt unique
Lachy isn't just a wedding photographer, he's an artist at heart, obsessed with finding beautiful light & blending that with documenting real moments.
He shoots on a mix of high end digital gear & old school 35mm & medium format film cameras. The nostalgia of film images on a wedding day is truly timeless & the images take you right back to that moment in time.
But above all, he's a relaxed guy that seamlessly fits into your wedding day. He doesn't sit on the sidelines...he's right in there with you, chatting to your guests & documenting the energy, emotion & the feeling of the day.
"The thing that honestly made you stand out from the crowd was your passion. You are really genuine in your approach & you only have to chat to you for a few moments to realise that you aren't smashing out weddings as quickly as you can...you're doing it because you love photography.
The love & passion is infectious & we wanted that present on our wedding day" Nicci & Simon
