La Este Film is run by Hamish & Courtney, a dedicated husband & wife team. We know what it’s like to be absolutely smitten and in pure love. I have been capturing weddings for over three years recognised in Together Journal, Wed Vibes, Wezoree, GT BRIDE. My approach to wedding photography is deeply rooted in a passion for creating art that transcends time. I strive to blend classic, editorial and romantic elements with fleeting emotion filled frames, nailing the balance between getting ’’THE SHOT’’ and genuine heartfelt moments alongside editing in a natural way to ensure every frame never dates. My philosophy centres around the belief that weddings are more than just ceremonies & portraits—they are profound, intimate milestones that wholeheartedly deserve to be captured with authenticity & soul for every single moment of the day whilst infusing elegance & timeless artistry for couples to cherish forever. Always working to perfect my craft in every way possible, I love dogs, Taylor swift, a good chicken schnitzel or bowl of pasta, making my home a ‘beige aesthetic’, fashion, fast cars and I’m really an introvert at heart until I have one glass of wine or an espresso martini…I’m an absolute perfectionist to a fault, and an incredibly passionate photographer that will assist you with anything on the day to ensure you look the best.

15 Reviews for La Este Film
Photo highlights were sent through so quickly, with heaps of variety and we could not be happier.
The great banter, genuine care and attention to detail (sorry to get you to move that train of my dress so many times Courtney!), left us with no doubt these were the perfect pair to capture our day and would highly recommend La Este to anyone!
On the day of our wedding, they were absolute lifesavers, not only capturing every precious moment but also helping us stay on track with timelines and schedules. Their attention to detail and commitment to getting the perfect shots truly went above and beyond our expectations.
The photos are absolutely breathtaking, beyond anything we could have imagined. We received our photos in record time, and they surpassed anything we could have imagined. Courtney and Hamish have a remarkable talent for capturing the essence of a moment, and each photo reflects the joy and magic of our day.
Thank you, Courtney and Hamish, for everything you did to make our wedding day so memorable. Your talent and dedication are truly appreciated, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had you capture our special moments. We'll cherish these photos forever.
The communication was amazing, they are very reliable and professional.
My partner and I aren't naturally very comfortable in front of a camera but these two made the whole experience fun and relaxed. They gave us lots of direction so we felt calm and confident in our poses. They were also flexible and happy to adjust to our plans as we updated our venue and times. We got almost 20 sneak peaks the next day which was so exciting. We cannot wait for the rest of the film and photos to arrive so we can relive it all again!
Thankyou for being a special part of our day, being gentle, keeping us calm, and capturing moments that we will keep forever In our home.
You're the best!
Thank you for being a part of our dream day - we wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone and everyone.
The quality of their work is unmatched and Lochie and I feel so grateful to have had them be a part of our wedding day.
They brought the best vibes and energy and were so patient working with us and our huge bridal party (seriously well done guys! Hahah).
We will be singing their praises to everyone and already we’ve had numerous compliments on the photos provided!
We cannot wait to see the rest and the film!!
We love you guys!!
Behind the scenes and in the lead up to the wedding they were incredibly professional and would promptly reply to any queries we had, which made us feel comfortable and reassured.
We couldn’t recommend La Este enough to capture your photography and videography on your special day.
On the day both the photographer and videographer made the day run so smoothly, they were so friendly and accommodating and just super helpful throughout the day whether is checking in on us both or making sure we had all the photos we wanted.
We received both our photos and videos and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the outcome, they are just amazing!!
