About
At David Madden Photography we have developed a natural style of photography, offering gentle guidance and having fun while we create memorable images together. If you’re looking for wedding photographs that feel genuine, emotional and beautifully unscripted, David Madden Photography is a standout choice. Based in Sydney, David takes a naturally candid approach to photographing weddings, capturing moments as they unfold rather than directing every interaction. Years of experience have given him an instinct for anticipating the fleeting moments others might miss, allowing him to quietly document authentic laughter, emotion and connection while offering gentle guidance whenever it’s needed. The result is a wedding gallery that feels effortless, personal and unmistakably you. What really sets David apart is the immersive experience he creates with every couple. Taking the time to get to know you before the wedding allows him to tell your story in a way that feels authentic and deeply personal, creating images that evoke genuine emotion long after the day has ended.
Client Review of David Madden Photography : “David was fantastic, on the day he calmed the very nervous bride and got the pics he needed. David’s knowledge and confidence allowed him to get the most perfect photographs. He moved around our celebration getting the shots so naturally. We can’t thank David enough for his work and would highly recommend him for any special occasion.” – Tammy & Ronnie

How do you go about planning our Wedding day ?
I am a bit of a planning guru so its in my dna to leave no stone unturned in my preparation for your big day. I love to bring you guys along on the journey too and get your input especially when it comes to scouting photo locations for the couple shoot part of the day, we usually do this when we visit the venue well in advamce of the day. However if this something you prefer to leave to me thats all good too ! I put together a plan B aswell, handy to pull out of the back pocket especially if the weather gods are against us on the day.
How many images do we get and when will they be ready ?
That depends on how much photo coverage there is on the day, but an approximate guide for finished images (fully edited) is around 100-125 per hour of photo coverage. For example a full day shoot of around 8 hrs you would end up with between 800-1000 beautiful images to encapsulate your day.
We send a sneak peek of images from throughout the day, just 24hrs after the day itself. The full set of images is normally ready around 2-3 weeks after date of the wedding, depending on how busy we are at the time. Spring and Autumn are usually the busiest wedding seasons so images tend to take a little longer at these times of the year
What happens if you are unwell on our Wedding day ?
I hasnt happened yet (touch wood) and to be fair I would need to be fairly incapacitated to not show to your Wedding. However if the unlikely scenario does manifest then I would turn to my assistant photographer who is more than capable to step in for me. They shoot in a very similar style ( probably because we have worked togerther a number of times) and I would then take over the editing when Im better, so in teh ened you would be hard pressed to differentiate between our work.
