Paris Hawken Photography

We just can't thank you enough for your amazing work. You and Tom are such talented people and such beautiful humans.We loved having you there on our special day! You made the experience very relaxed, fun and the results were beyond our expectations.You captured our wedding in a way that we will forever remember how loved-filled and happy it was - the photos of my dad and grandpa particularly brought tears to my eyes.Would highly recommend (and have to many friends who have also been estatic with her work!) xx

We could not have made a better choice when it came to wedding photography. Paris’ style has the distinct edge of the artistic, yet she imparts a softness and romanticism that is so uniquely her own. The way she operates is so casual and non-invasive, yet she knows exactly what shes doing and has an amazing eye for zeroing in on key shots. Every photo blew us away.Paris went above and beyond in every way to make sure our day was seamlessly perfect. From the pre wedding consultations to the day itself and of course the after-care, everything was conducted in her characteristic relaxed manner, that says “Don’t worry, I got you.” We really didn’t have to worry about a thing. The memories she captured for us are a thing of beauty that we’ll always treasure.We’ve been following both your wedding photography and your personal work for a long time. We chose you right from the start because (you’re the absolute best, and) your style is exactly what we were looking for in our wedding photos. We also love you as a person and knew that you would be a calming force for us at a time when stress levels can escalate. We knew our wedding photos were something we just didn’t have to worry about - you know exactly what you’re doing and how to achieve your aim.You actually exceeded all of our expectations in terms of both the photos themselves and the way you work. You were an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding and you know just how to capture those special moments and inspire genuine feeling in your subject. There’s is absolutely no critiquing I can offer you. Only my highest praise and sincere thanks.

Working with Paris was an absolute dream. She has that eye you pray a photographer you hire has. Her photos are absolutely beautiful and she made us feel super at ease. She lets you be you and captures moments in time that you'll look back on for the rest of your life. I couldn't be happier that I went with my gut and hired Paris. She made my wedding day complete. If you are looking for an incredibly talented photographer.. I promise you, look no further.

Paris is 100% worth every penny you will spend on any photography shoot, not just your wedding. She came highly recommended by our south west venue, and after going through the list of potential photographers, Paris’s style suited us the best. It was just so natural yet elegant.. she creates perfection through a lens!! She is so easy going, both in the planning stages, and on the day itself. Her style is so natural and she captured our special day wonderfully. We had our 2 year old daughter in our bridal party and she did an amazing job at getting some amazing shot of her as well as everyone else. We had sneak peak photos (a HUGE amount of them) to us not long after the wedding and the quality was just amazing. Paris exceeded our expectations and then some. Would highly recommend her to ANYONE and EVEYRONE! Extremely happy and chuffed with Paris! :-) you will NOT be disappointed!

Paris was the photographer for my wedding and I can't thank her enough! The photos are UNREAL! So polite, easy going and professional, my husband and I felt so comfortable throughout the entire day and she was able to capture the raw emotion and love! I am so grateful for all your work! Xx

We got married in March, 2019 at Solitaire Homestead and it was pure perfection!We got super lucky and were blessed with a perfect March day and of course an amazing family and bridal party – but one of the best things that happened (besides the nuptials of course) was our Photographers. Paris & Tom were absolutely incredible; they managed to capture on film (or SD card?) the absolute essence of love and happiness we actually felt on our wedding day – whilst remaining almost unseen!A photographer is such an important part of your wedding day, they are there in the nervous moments before you get out of the car to walk down the aisle (or whilst you fidget and patiently await your bride or groom), they are there for the first kiss, the first dance, they are there to share your happiness and excitement as a in those first few hours of being a newly married couple – and I can tell you there is no one I can recommend more than these guys!Paris & Tom, you are both legends! Such warm, kind and lovely people - we wanted you to stay for a boogie at the end of the night from memory?! Together you nailed the brief, you managed to control the crowd to get the group shots we asked for, but also made everyone so comfortable and almost unaware of your presence that you captured REAL moments of our loved ones enjoying our wedding day (including the demise of our limbo stick). Words can’t explain how happy we are that we chose you for our big day, and your art will live on our walls and our families walls for the rest of our lives!We cannot recommend you enough - so to anyone who needs a photographer... Paris Hawken is your gal!Thank you, Nat & Joe xx

As soon as we stumbled across Paris' website and instagram page, I knew she HAD to be our photographer! And then I had the chance to chat to her on the phone and I was SOLD! Someone who loves the outdoors and dogs?! YES PLEASE!Not only is she incredible at her job, but she makes the whole process SO MUCH FUN!! I absolutely hate being in front of a camera, but Paris made everything so easy and so relaxed. It felt like we had an opportunity to spend a little time together, away from everyone, and the whole time Paris is working her magic producing incredible photos for us to treasure forever!!Apart from being a dream to work with on the actual day, she helped us out so much in the lead up. She even went out of her way to meet us at the venue to choose the best spot to have our ceremony! What a gal!! She even explained what a runsheet was - I'm not sure our day would have worked without all your help! Haha!We would choose you every time. Thank you for everything!

Paris is an exceptional photographer & has a way of putting everyone at ease with her candid style of shooting. Her use of light takes her shots to the next level, creating the most magical photos. Our wedding photos were everything & more than we could have hoped for. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Her photos are simply stunning.

My husband and I would highly recommend Paris Hawken as a photographer and also as a person. We had Paris and Tom as our photographers for our wedding at Howard Park Wines in 2019.Paris’s genuine and calming nature, coolness and above all talent, beautifully captured our wedding day. From initially showing us a stunning location 10mins from our venue for bridal party photos on cliffs overlooking the ocean when we met Paris, to fabulous photos between ghost gum trees and of course capturing the ceremony and dancefloor shenanigans so magically, her exquisite eye brought it all together.Paris is a pure gem and her photographs follow suit. She, like her photographs are a wonder.

On a day filled with so much emotion and wild energy, Paris was the calm amongst it all. Her professionalism kept the night running smoothly and she was even the first to make sure I had a glass of champagne in hand. Paris’ eye for capturing the raw moments meant we could have the perfect memories of our wedding day; the side glances, the beaming smiles and the real love. The raw and understated nature of Paris’ style captures exactly how we were on the day and I’m always so proud to show off all our wedding photos. A faultless telling of such an important chapter in our story.
