I'm a mother of dachshunds, daughter of a musician, wife of a green thumb and a maker of images living on the beautiful Sunshine Coast. I'm a Sunshine Coast wedding photographer, but I will go anywhere you want to take me.
Since 2007 I have traveled around this beautiful country and overseas as a destination wedding photographer to capture some incredible celebrations for couples in Vanuatu, Fiji, Bali, New Zealand, Hayman Island, Daydream Island, Port Douglas, Melbourne, Sydney and Byron Bay.I've always wanted to see the world, and the fact that I get to do that while also making a living is more than I could have ever dreamed.

One of my favourite things about taking photos up until that point was snatching that split second moment that combined a beautiful portrait with a rush of emotion, laughter, tears or pure joy, visible in this image forever. As a wedding photographer, I specialise in creating moment-rich collections of imagery from a day where you have all of your best people in the same space.
Family photo sessions with me aren't about matching outfits and everyone beaming at the camera simultaneously. Sure, we aim to get that one perfect snap where everyone is looking at the camera and smiling so Nana can frame it and put it in her display cabinet with pride of place, but for the rest of the time we're shooting, I want to capture your family and all the little quirks and expressions and relationships within it that make it unique.
Emma was one of the first vendors we booked for our wedding, I knew I wanted her as our photographer years ago when I first came across her at a friend's wedding. The photos she took were stunning and I loved the way she blended in with the guests, you wouldn't even know she was there. I thought to myself, this girl knows her stuff!

The wedding photos Emma took for us are truly divine and will be treasured for all our lives. We had a small wedding and every single one of our guests commented on how fabulous Emma was on the day, before they’d even seen the photo’s! Emma is a very special person and just gets something about what’s shared between people…and she captures it in her photos. Having Emma at our wedding made our day!

When it comes to photographers Emma is the whole package - incredibly talented, makes you feel relaxed and comfortable, excellent communication, and you can tell she really cares about getting the best results for you. Her work speaks for itself, magazine worthy photos and she captures emotion so beautifully. I treasure the photos Emma has captured of myself and my loved ones.

Emma was the first vendor we decided on for our wedding day and we 100% would have changed our date just to keep her. She made us feel completely comfortable and relaxed and it’s like having a close friend hanging around for the day. She is absolutely incredible at what she does and we’re so thankful that we have beautiful photos of our wedding day to keep forever. xx

Emma is fabulous! Not only is she a talented photographer (her images speak for themselves!), she is a chilled, super lovely person, and a dream to work with. I am always buoyed and excited to see her name on any run sheet we share.
She is a master with light, and her work is always of the highest standard.
Highly recommend!

I don’t even know where to start. Emma is just the best. I had no idea how to plan a wedding (no one does right?), Emma was super helpful with a timeline, very approachable and easy to communicate with. She was more than accommodating with requests (including doggo pictures) and was a calm, friendly and fun addition to the day. I honestly cannot fault her. It was like having a crazy talented friend taking pics of us. I would do it all over again just to hang out!! Thank you a million times over Em! You’ll never know how appreciative we are of you and your cleverness and I’m totally obsessed

We had such a great experience with Emma as our photographer. We had her booked for a wedding last year and when we decided last minute to ‘elope’ she was able to come at short notice. Felt comfortable having her at our very small wedding and the photos she produced were amazing and exactly what we wanted. Already booked again for photos with our new baby girl.
Also loves dogs so much, which is great! Because so do we. Got so many great photos with our fluffy child who was an important part of our wedding.

Emma photographed my forest elopement at the sunshine coast and we couldn't be happier with our photos.
She went above and beyond and even helped us narrow down the most perfect picturesque location for our ceremony and our photos.
Emma is so welcoming, professional and made us feel comfortable with posing. She has the best sense of humour and she immediately had us at ease.
We will be booking in again soon for family photos with our new arrival.
A+++++ Highly recommend Emma Nayler [Photographer].

Emma is the kindest, funniest, best person I know and she is also a phenomenal photographer. She’s the only one I trust to take photos of me because I feel comfortable and trust that I’m Going to look my best through her lens. Her wedding photos are dreamy too and I always recommend her to anyone I know getting married.

Emma is the most amazing photographer and all around great person. We did a session with her (me, hubby, and our dog) and were blown away with the images. She manages to capture the "in between" moments, not just a posed photo. You get the little smiles and laughs and special glances. I can't say that any of us like having our picture taken, but Emma is so warm and friendly (and fun!) that you're immediately at ease, and you can leave your session knowing she will have made some magic. She's so easygoing and you can tell her job is her passion. I can't recommend her enough!
