Oli is a true master of his craft. Nuff said! We were very lucky to nab him to capture our special day.

Midway through our initial meeting, I had to bite my tongue at the risk of looking like a fool, coz all I wanted to do was to tell him, "Oli, shut up and take my money!".

Aside from being charasmatic and witty, his photos are beyond beautiful and cinematic. Each composition is beautifully crafted and executed. He does it with such style and grace. He makes it look so effortless. We can't thank you enough! We absolutely adored working with you and being able to relive our favourite memories through your photos. And to kick it up a notch, the wedding album and physical prints are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for being you!

Oli is absolutely awesome! He was so much fun to have around on the day of our wedding and made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. You spend a lot of time with your photographer on your big day, and we are so glad we chose to spend it with Oli.

We are beyond happy with the photos. Oli is a true master of his art and caught so many beautiful and magic moments. He has his own wondrous unique style that puts him leagues above other wedding photographers.

Choose Oli. You'll be so happy you did. I wish I could give him 10 stars!

I knew that I always wanted Oli to photograph my wedding before I had even commenced planning. I had long admired and loved his work and knew that he would capture our big day in the most spectacular way that also represented who we were - he did not disappoint!!
Oli brought the whole package to our wedding - professionalism, creativity and hilarity - and has left us with incredible lasting memories of our most special day.

If you're looking for a soft, fluffy lens or schmaltzy posed pics of your bridesmaids leaning on a car in unison, keep on movin'. This 'aint your guy. But, if you're wanting wedding photos that are artful, broody, moody, edgy and purely beautiful then this extremely talented fellow is for you. He gets the real moments, sometimes eerily reflective of the beauty of the human psyche. The tiny moments that celebrate the most special and intimate of relationships. As an bonus he is also just a delightful human who I love to work with as a wedding celebrant. Book him.

I don't routinely write reviews but Oli really deserves one.

Oli photographed our wedding and, throughout the whole process, he could not have been more accommodating, helpful or warm. We planned a very small wedding at very short notice so didn't arrange to meet Oli in advance, but he fit in so well my family thought for a time he was a guest / one of our friends. He was particularly adept at navigating family dynamics.

Oli was our first choice photographer and the photos did not disappoint. We never had to worry that we wouldn't get some great photos - Oli captured the joy of our day so well. We also received our gallery incredibly fast - a couple of photos that night, a preview the morning after the wedding, a further preview not long after, the entire gallery within about 2.5 weeks (!), and later a hand-carved box with some prints.

Couldn't be happier to have nabbed Oli to photograph our wedding.

Oli is an incredible photographer, amazing human and we feel so lucky to have found him! He shot both our wedding and an event in the lead up, capturing so many special moments like magic, fitting in so well with our family and friends and putting everyone at ease. He is professional, a great communicator, works incredibly quickly and is just an absolute pleasure to have around. We love the images he captured and couldn't be happier, he is a master of light with an amazing eye. We wish we could do it all again!

Every image Oli shares with the world is so vividly unique with the power to disarm you and leave you feeling like you wish you were a fly on the wall at THAT wedding! He is also a wonderful human being and the kind who will become a life long friend after shooting your wedding!

Oli is all about capturing the little and big Wedding moments in unique and truly beautiful ways. He takes tremendous pride in his work and delivers images that are individually reflective of your celebration. Oli is detailed, professional, personable and always up for a laugh - details that are so important when your special Day arrives. If you're looking for a Wedding photographer, Oli is one supplier we highly recommend.

Hand on heart, Oli Sansom of Briars Atlas is, hands down, one of the most respected photographers in our industry.    (Actually, his reputation extends far beyond Melbourne, where I work as a Celebrant, as he’s in demand worldwide!)

Oli’s attention to detail and creativity is exceptional, he’s unobtrusive during ceremonies (celebrants and guests love that about him) and he’s a genuinely awesome person.  If Oli's available, book him immediately!

About

Briars Atlas
Photographer Briars Atlas About me

We're a dirty little secret. We're wedding and elopement photographers based in Melbourne, Australia, but working all over the planet... and just like that restaurant in a city that all the local chefs go to at the witching hour 'neath shroud of moonlight, most of our couples are, photographers: specifically, wedding photographers. We think that says it all. Whether you’re planning a small elopement or large wedding anywhere on this earth, if you value good things made with attention and care in a world that increasingly values the opposite, then you're in the right place... and there’s probably something great we can make together. We don't know what it means to cut corners. It's nice that this approach has had us featured in Vogue, Martha Stewart and countless other jazzy publications for both celebrity and backyard celebrations alike, but it's even nicer than that is knowing that it constantly draws us to folks who... simply like to feel cared for. So, you're in great hands. Make an enquiry to find out about our meticulous planning processes, and discover things such as analogue film inclusions.
