ABOUT TARA LEE
We capture the ‘you’ in your photos
your exquisite experience of these precious moments on the Sunshine Coast.
I want you to have the best time on your day, I want you to feel like you can 100% be you so that your photos are authentic. It's about looking at your photos after your wedding day and having those photos bring back all the emotions and memories....bringing you back to your day. That's why I value photos, they are what remind me of the great moments in this life. They bring back feelings and memories. Imagine where we would be without them?!
I want to hear about what you want in your wedding photography, what's important to you and what your dreams are for that one epic day that's all about marrying your best friend and celebrating with all your favourite people. Who wouldn't want the opportunity to capture all of that awesomeness!
I have been a wedding and portrait photographer on the Sunshine Coast since 2006 and it is truly one of the greatest honors witnessing couples on their wedding day declare their love and then seeing their families grow and evolve.
My husband is Jayden from Sunshine Coast Videography (seriously the best videos, just try not to cry when watching them) and we have a precious daughter who brings such joy and growth in our lives. Having a family of my own makes me appreciate family portraiture more than ever….it’s what they say…they grow up so fast and I feel like there are never enough photos.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS
15 years ago I shot my first solo wedding after being a 2nd shooter for a few years...what a thrill! It was exhilarating, scary and far out- SO rewarding! I love photography and the highs it brings!
WHAT IS YOUR PERFECT DAY ON THE COAST?
I wasn't always from the Sunny Coast – I was in Canberra for 7 years before that...which made me SO grateful for this incredible place. My perfect day on the Coast is usually by the beach in the morning and having heaps of family over for a pot luck and a swim at night...and somewhere in there an hour to myself ;)
BEST PLACE TO EAT ON THE COAST?
I love Junk or Amici....and I am on the hunt for the best steak on the Coast with red wine jus....if you can recommend somewhere.
FAVORITE TREAT?
Definitely Cadbury creations popping candy Chocolate and a cup of tea at the end of the day! ( yep, a tad lame ;) I also love dried Mango from Kunara.
DREAM HOLIDAY DESTINATION?
The Maldives and Bora Bora.
BEST SNORKELLING PLACE?
Tanna Island, Heron Island and The Red Sea...where am I missing?
BEST ADVICE FOR COUPLES ON THER WEDDING DAY?
It truly doesn't matter what happens on your wedding day, as long as you marry your best friend, your day has been a success!
