What Pete Shot - pro photography by Pete Thornton

Having Pete as our Photographer was like hanging out with a mate who happened to take some absolutely stunning photos! Pete is incredibly professional and efficient but with a laid back approach that helped soothe any nerves. He blended in with our guests, documenting our amazing day exactly the way we wanted. During the ceremony we didn't even notice him capturing all those special finite moments and we couldn't be happier with the quality and range of photos. Highly recommended!!!

Pete was extremely easy to communicate with leading up to our wedding and an absolute pleasure to have with us on the day. We felt completely comfortable and 100% ourselves around him at all times. The photos he has presented us with are absolutely stunning snapshots of now cherished memories.

Wow, what an absolute pleasure it was to work with Pete!Pete was really accommodating and understanding when our dates changed due to Covid. We also live out of State and really appreciated Pete's flexibility and the time he dedicated to us.Pete made the wedding day an absolute delight and we had so much fun doing the photos pre and post ceremony. We got some incredible shots based on Pete's experience and curiousity in doing things differently. We were so fortunate to find him!We would recommend Pete for any event!

Pete is a truly professional photographer, understands the nuances of the bridal industry inside out and overall just a really great guy to work with. Choosing him for our wedding (April 16, 2023) was one of the best decisions we made for a few key reasons: He was flexible, compassionate & communicative from the original date we booked him for (in 2020) throughout the whole pandemic including a few postponed dates and despite living interstate we never felt worried about his services.On the actual day, Pete brought humility and confidence at the same time, lots of good humour in a down to earth way and showed his real knack for finding creatively, unique ways to shoot us while chasing the best light. We are super happy with our pics & they were processed in a super timely manner (had highlights back in a week, then full gallery within 3 weeks). He is worth every cent for something this special.

Pete was everything we were looking for in a wedding photographer and more. He was easy to communicate with, super friendly, made us feel really comfortable, and seemed to have as much fun at our wedding as our guests did!!We love our photos from our day and love looking back over them and all the fond memories.Would gladly recommend Pete as a photographer for anything you require, he loves what he does and it shows in his work! 10/10!

Having photos taken with Pete, is like hanging out with a mate that you have known for years. My husband and I are certainly not fans of being in-front of the camera but Pete made it feel normal and more importantly fun. At the end of the day we have got the most beautiful photos to treasure for ever, but we also have some great memories from our sunset session out in the hills of the Barossa.I cannot recommend Pete highly enough; he is simply brilliant at what he does. Beyond the actual wedding day, in the lead up, Pete was available to answer all our questions, had many suggestions and following the wedding was prompt at getting us our photos in time for Christmas. Pete really gets that weddings aren’t just about all the “pretty add on’s” but about two people who are really into each other, hanging out with all their favourite people having the best day and this is truly reflected in his photograph style - Little moments captured with an artful eye.Thanks again Pete :)

Having Pete as our photographer for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Straight away he was very easy to communicate with, responding immediately and inviting us to his studio, showcasing his photography. Pete was amazing on our wedding day, perfectly capturing our special day. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, We would highly recommend Pete!

Pete did our photography for our wedding in 2011. An amazing photographer with incredible skill and attention to detail. The meetings we had leading up to our day made us feel very confident and comfortable. And on day, he made it so easy allowing us to focus on our wedding whilst he captured every moment of the day to tell our story. The results speak for themselves - thanks Pete!

We chose Pete to do our wedding photos, and were so happy we did! He took the time in the lead up to meet with us several times, to understand what kind of photos we wanted, and look around the venues. My husband and i are both very uncomfortable in front of the camera, but Pete made it so much easier. He joked and drank beer with us, and overall made the whole experience very relaxed, comfortable, and a lot of fun! And the photos we got out of it are incredible!!! would highly recommend Pete to any couples searching for a wedding photographer.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, seriously stop your search and hit up What Pete Shot. Pete was the first photographer we contacted and we knew instantly that he was the right choice. Pete made the whole process so easy from the get go. Even though we were planning things 2 years in advance, Pete was super helpful the whole time. Fast forward to the wedding day and it was like Pete wasn't even there during the ceremony, yet we have these incredible photos of such beautiful, raw moments. Every one of our guests were impressed with how friendly he was throughout the day and how easy it was to get great shots. Now we are in the stages of deciding what photos to put into an album and honestly, there are so many perfect shots, it's really REALLY difficult because they are all fantastic. Pete, thank you again for making us feel so comfortable throughout the whole day. We were a bit nervous about posing and looking coupley" but we had nothing but fun the whole time. We are in awe of how well our photos have turned out. We will be referring you to everyone we know!!"
