Byron Bay Wedding Photos

Frames, not portfolios.

Wedding and elopement photographs by Joshua Mikhaiel, from Byron Bay and the Northern Rivers to celebrations across Australia. Quiet moments, wild dance floors, and people being themselves. These are selected frames from different days, photographed with the same documentary approach — paying attention to what happens, rather than asking everyone to perform for the camera.
