Julie and Grant De Lisser are a husband and wife team specializing in wedding, portrait and underwater photography based in the Central Coast of New South Wales.
Having a combined experience of over thirty years in the professional photographic industry, they have worked with some of the worlds best photographers in London and Australia and New Zealand. Their creative flare and extensive knowledge of photography, printing and retouching ensures flawless images of exceptional beauty.
Wedding photography
Julie is the primary photographer for weddings and likes to meet with you at least two or three times before your big day, to establish a rapport and a more relaxed and comfortable relationship. She also includes a pre-wedding photo shoot, so you can be totally confident about her ability and style, and get a feel for how you will work together. Their dedicated wedding studio offers a relaxed comfortable setting for you to plan your wedding photography. Shooting all their work on film, images are then scanned giving you the best of both traditional and digital media. Through experience they believe that film is the best choice for portraiture, as it delivers beautiful colour, flattering skin tones, exquisite detail, and true archival quality.
Julie is also a qualified make-up artist, which gives you the opportunity to look picture perfect from the moment you slip on your gown, to the moment you slip away from your reception.
Julie and Grant work together on your wedding day, capturing every special moment of romance and emotion in a natural, candid and creative way, whilst being as invisible as possible. They understand the importance of recording all the little details that you’ve spent hours on to make your day unique. Favouring natural, spontaneous and un-posed moments, the result is emotive and timeless images that will make you smile for a lifetime. Two photographers also gives you a wider selection of pictures and offers you the security that your day will be fully covered.
Julie’s approach to portraiture is fresh, natural and un-posed, capturing the true personalities of her subjects. One of her specialties is environmental portraits shot in beautiful natural light at spectacular locations.
Most of all she loves to photograph babies. Being a mum herself, she knows that in the blink of an eye babies grow up, and all we have left are memories and photographs. Knowing that newborns can be unpredictable, Julie is happy to photograph them in the comfort of your own home or at her studio, using natural light whenever possible so there are no nasty flashes.
Underwater photography
Grant’s specialty is in the underwater realm. He has masterfully created a fresh and conceptual view of the underwater world. His breathtaking underwater portraits have a surreal sense about them and his use of diffused and dappled light gives them an almost poetic note.
His love of water and scuba diving have combined to produce images of a magical quality that cannot be captured in the gravity bound world above.
Grant’s specialties include commercial, pregnancy and swim school photography. Underwater pregnancy portraiture grew out of a desire to capture something different for this special time in a woman’s life. The soft, flattering light and weightlessness of water combine to create ethereal and timeless images of beauty.
Being a father himself Grant knows the importance of an early appreciation of water. This quintessential part of Australian life is not only life saving but is a time of fun and excitement. Capturing these moments not only provides positive reinforcement for the children but is a wonderful memory for the family; one to be treasured for years to come.
After spending hundreds of hours under water his love of the aquatic environment is stronger than ever. His creative flare is available for all to share. All ages are catered for, and locations vary from comfortable indoor heated pools to open ocean. All you need is a love of the silent world.
