I'm Verity Edgecombe, an Adelaide Hills-based wedding, family and product photographer.
Using the light as my paintbrush, I capture timeless, heartwarming moments in a relaxed, easy-going way.
Capturing one of a couple's happiest days is an honour and privilege. As a consequence, I put my all into every wedding. I listen to what you want and how you feel. As a result, we get photos that are the real you! They won't be stilted and highly posed, but I will tell you if it looks awkward - or if someone has left their phone in their pocket! I help you relax in front of the camera and be yourself. I love getting all the in-between moments that tell the story of your love and your day.
One thing that stands out about me is that I don't stand out! I don't get in you or your guest's way - I understand I'm there to capture all the moments of the day but not to wreck it for anyone else by standing in the way or making you, as a couple, feel like you have hired the paparazzi!
As there are often many places to choose to have your wedding photos taken, I check out venues before the wedding to find the best spots to suit your tones and style. The images are then unique to you, and my second photographer and I can work efficiently on the day. I often hear the bridal party surprised (and thankful!) that their role in the photos is over quicker than other weddings they have been in, and they can tuck into the afternoon tea sooner than they imagined! Admittedly, that usually is groomsmen!!
Because I know you will probably be hanging out for your photos after the wedding, I'll work hard to send you the images within a few weeks of the wedding day. I love it when couples can enjoy looking through their photos on their honeymoon!
Choosing who will photograph your wedding is a big decision. You have to make the right choice. If you like what you see, we can chat over the phone or in person.

Review
When you choose a photographer you’re not only choosing the feel & style of the photographs you like, you’re also choosing someone to spend a few hours with on a very special day. Verity & Mel were so calm, relaxed & easygoing, it was a pleasure to work with them. They were flexible but also assertive when required to get the very best results. Our photos turned out better than we could have ever dreamed possible & we have them to treasure & remember the tiny moments of our wedding day that would otherwise be forgotten. I couldn’t recommend Verity Edgecombe Photography more highly for a wonderful experience & result. Furthermore, Verity has made ordering & presenting our photos effortless.
Capturing your children in their different stages of life is something every child is thankful their parents did. Children grow up, and before you know it, they have left home and are on their path in life. Capturing moments with your children, playing in the sand, reading them a book, going on a walk, or simply hanging out will always remind you of those precious family times and how they interacted with you and their siblings. I think back on my childhood; so much is forgotten about those early years, but the beautiful images my parents had taken of us as children are so precious. I was that crazy sister who always put her head to the side. I think I thought I looked cute!
At family photo sessions, my motto is "Let your kids be kids." I like to go with the flow and photograph your children being themselves. If they are shy or cheeky, I want that to come out in your images. We stay relaxed and sometimes even let the kids call the shots.
I generally do family photo sessions in the beautiful golden glow of the early or late afternoon sun. This suits most families because the family photo session won't eat into your busy days, but a session during the day is preferred for others. I work with whatever suits you.
Review
My mothers day gift for this year was a photo shoot with Verity.
Verity makes you super relaxed, she is kind and takes breathtaking photos.
The colouring is beautiful and she makes sure everything and everyone looks stunning before taking a photo.
She has just the right knack on how to make you smile naturally, and the way she sets the scene in her lens frame is perfect.
Thanks Verity, for your kindness, your talent and the awesome photos you have taken of our family.
I highly recommend you getting Verity for your next photo shoot, you won't be sorry.
Extended Family Portraits
A significant family birthday or celebration like a wedding can bring extended families together. Grab the chance and get your parents and siblings together for a photo session! At these sessions, we get large extended family photos, individual family photos, and individual couples and children. We get adult siblings together, and even your parents get romantic photos, which is often the first time they have had images like that since they were married! Why do all older couples laugh when they hug and look at each other? I don't know, but it makes for great happy photos!

In 2020, I added product and food photography to my portfolio. I can either come to you or pick up your products and photograph them off-site. I use all my knowledge of light, texture and colour, and my understanding of what drives people, to create beautiful images that make your products and food irresistible! I style the images and take the photos, meaning you don't need to hire a 'food stylist' as well as a photographer to create your images.
Here's more info about my product and food photography.
My pricing for wedding, family and product photography is uncomplicated and affordable, with no compromise on quality. You can design a package that fits your needs. If you can't see what you are looking for with my standard pricing, contact me here for a package made just for you.
