How you feel.

How you love.

Thoughtfully, documented.

Queensland Wedding Photographer

Working on Yuwi Country / Mackay, Qld

Available to travel Australia wide.

Ever walk through your Grandparents home and stopped to look at all the photos hanging on the walls?

Or peeked into that old box that’s been hidden for years at your parents house, to uncover photos from your childhood?

How honest and in the moment those photos were. It’s almost like you’ve been transported back in time.

Flicking through, you see how your Mother looked at you with love, the feeling of joy in your younger self with your gapped, toothy grin and the classic Grandparents wedding portrait taken on a polaroid.

A real sense of nostalgia floods you and then you realise…

That time does not stop for anyone…

Meet Your Photographer

Hey There,

I’m Tiarni!

I’m a photographer with a deep love for documenting the moments that matter — the honest, unscripted ones that hold real feeling. I specialise in wedding photography, working with people who value connection, story, and emotion.

  • Sharnnez & Lucas

    “What an incredible experience! From the moment we began the shoot, Tiarni made my partner and I feel completely at ease. Her ability to capture our true selves was remarkable—the photos were stunning and perfectly reflected our personalities. The session was filled with laughter and joy, thanks to her warm and engaging approach. I highly recommend Captured by Light Photography for anyone looking to capture genuine, beautiful moments. Thank you so so much T - I could not recommend enough!”

  • Fern & Thomas

    “Tiarni did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding photos!! She made us feel very comfortable and relaxed throughout the process, and our photos turned out better than we could have imagined! She was quick and responsive with her communication throughout our planning process. I would highly recommend her to anyone!!”

  • Emma & Nick

    “Tiarni is a delightful human being and a very talented photographer. She captured our wedding day beautifully. On the day, Tiarni floated around in a very non-obtrusive way. We requested more candid shots than posed photos, and boy did she deliver! The special moments are all laid out to see in the album. At any time, we can look at the photos and be transported back to that magical day. I highly recommend Tiarni if you're looking for a professional photographer who has a great eye for those special shots.”

  • Darcie & Eddy

    “Tiarni was so amazing to work with, she matched the calm energy we wanted for our big day. It was a pleasure to have her there. And of course, the photos came out just stunning - she captured light we didn’t know existed! The magic of our day really came through in the photos. She fit in so seamlessly with our day, I love how she just captured the natural order of the day and came out with stunning shots without hours of posing. We just got to live the day and be present and she documented it beautifully. Thank you! “

  • Sharnie & Brae

    “We had the absolute pleasure of having Tiarni as our photographer for our elopement, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and results. From start to finish, she made the entire experience feel so special and comfortable. Her attention to detail, creativity, and ability to capture the raw emotion of the day exceeded our expectations. The final photos are breathtaking and something we will cherish forever. Not only is Tiarni an incredibly talented photographer, but she’s also an amazing person. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly cares about her clients and their moments.”
