What we'd like you to know about us.....
Firstly we just took out the 4th spot in NSW with wedding photography through the 2011 Australian Bridal Industry Academy Awards. We placed in 4th spot with an average score voted by our brides of 99.80%.
At Global Sanctuary, we have a team of 9 photographers who will travel all over the state and interstate to attend your event. They are technically & artistically savvy with a wealth of experience, so rest assured... you are in good hands. We are now in Queensland also and travel the country and the world to shoot for our clients.
We will select the perfect photographer especially for you.
Every member of our team has exceptional people skills and work from the heart.
When it comes to weddings, each wedding is for us, like a blank canvas to an artist.
We never know how we will shoot on the day until we arrive.
As wedding photography is such an emotional service, we assess and analyse every single wedding in a unique way to suit the couples personalities and personal style. The way we shoot on the day depends on the weather, the available natural light, the personalities of the couple and their families & guests, the locations and the overall vibe of your special day. This is the reason we find it unnecessary for couples to meet their photographer before the day as we will form our own assessment from the moment we arrive to ensure your photography style suits the feel of your day & you as a couple.
The website is a collection of everyone's work. Our amazing team are trained in Global Sanctuary's unique style of photography & they then add their own personal stamp for a unique end result.
In six years, the wedding side of our business has grown from a one person show to a very successful business which produces beautiful images for over 300 couples each year.
We have won awards in NSW for the last three years running with the Australian Bridal Industry Academy Awards and this year we are yet again in the top running with results released in December.
As we believe that every bride and groom deserves stunning wedding photos, we work at keeping our costs down for you to offer you the best prices possible. We used to operate out of a large warehouse studio in Botany, but find it more cost effective now without a studio front as we can pass the savings directly to you the client, rather than paying the high studio overheads. We also won't tie you down with a lengthy legal contract. Every piece of information regarding your wedding will be emailed to you for reference so you feel safe and in control. We require a $100 - $200 deposit (amount depends on the size of the wedding), to lock your booking in and the balance is due just prior to the wedding.
We provide your images burned to a DVD, posted to your doorstep in 14-30 days in high resolution jpeg files & you own copyright of your own images. If you require a faster edit service, just talk to us and we'll make it happen for you.
At Global Sanctuary, we are committed to our couples and we are there for you every step of your big day. We are problem solvers & trouble shooters and no matter what may go wrong we are there for you.
Our images are published regularly in bridal magazines both on paper and online and we have been featured in BRW magazine and on A Current Affair.
We are very personable and client focused and believe in a world of poor service, that great service is everything.
We look forward to discussing your needs for what is likely to be the most memorable day of your life.

Very competitive rates for very talented photographers. They show initiative and flexibility to work with customers' requirements.
Best prices by far, and extremely easy to deal with! Would definitely use this company again!!

Jay was fantastic and Sue is really lovely to deal with. Definately recommend.
My sister also had Global Sanctuary for her wedding photography and the quality and price was fantastic. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them, especially for a small wedding. :)

Sue from Global Sanctuary referred me to a local videographer, Tim and he was excellent, both in terms of great service and great price. Many thanks

The best photograper, make up artist and hair style St found by seek Thank you so much My wedding was perfect and on a budget thanks to Global Sanctuary Photography whom also recomended the hair and makeup lady
I am yet to use them for the wedding. But so far, yes i would definitely recommend them to others.
Absolutely wonderful. Sue is a passionate, quality first type of person, who cares about people. It's a real pleasure working with her and her team!
I was thrilled with the service provided by Global sanctuary! Our photographer, Jay was highly professional. He was obliging and did not intrude on the day. This discrete photography resulted in many lovely candid and natural images. We were not pressured into buying albums or other hidden extras. For under $400 we had the services of a professional photographer for two hours and a DVD of nearly 200 high quality images. These were delivered to our door 10 days after the wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Global sanctuary.
Hello - I got in touch with Global Sanctuary directly via email because what i sent through your agency, didnt reach them. Having said that though, without this service, I wouldnt have found the business I was looking for. Thank you for your service. Regards Charmaine
Very Frienly service an they understood what i was after. They have lovely work displayed on their website and I'm excited to see what they come up with on our special day.
Most, if not all businesses that quoted were highly professional in their dealings with me (the customer). I had a chat to all 8 businesses after we received all quotes. We ended up choosing Global Sanctuary Photography as they had both the best package for the best price without any hidden costs. Additionally, they had some of the best photos on their website and were also able to recommend a videographer to which we have also been able to get a extremely good deal. Both services will be used for the entirety of our wedding day and are we are very pleased with the decision we have made so far. Thankyou ServiceSeeking!
Very professional company. Was very happy with the photos and would absolutely use them again and recommend them to others. thank you for a great service provided by your website. It made the task of finding a the photographer a breeze!
Found them very helpful! In everthing that I asked! Photos turned out amazing!
I have chosen this company though due to an unforseen event, I have delayed the job for another month. Once the site is ready, the shoot will go ahead. Thanks for the service you provide. Andrew
The Global Sanctuary photographer was amazing, skilled, professional, friendly and cheap!
Very helpful and pleasant to deal with. We have booked Global Sanctuary for our Wedding.
Sue really knows her stuff and is willing to help you out by providing good information and samples of work. Sadly I will not be going with Sue as I was able to get what I wanted exactly from someone else, thanks and best wishes
Thank you so much for all the information given, thus I have chosen a photographer already but you have been quite helpful in everything and very clear about your business Regards Gabriela
Thank you so much for all the information given, thus I have chosen hair and make-up already but you have been quite helpful Regards Gabriela
Excellent package, am hoping to book straight away - this is an excellent service and the photo's on the website (its well worth looking at their website) are absoutley stunning. Have sought several quotes and this is by far the best yet !

Fantastic work - just what I wanted and quick delivery. Very happy with the service
Very well priced, quick, everything we ask for.. very pleased.. Thanks Sue!!
Very impressed and very happy. I got some product photography work done, and a few days after I dropped off the products she had already finished them (actually she finished the whole shot in a day, amazing turn around). She's really friendly to deal with, and her shots look fantastic. Also she was able to work on just some basic direction and then use her experience and professionalism to do the rest (e.g. recommendations on how to better position the shots, other angles that might help sell the product). Here's a summary: -Quick turn-around -Friendly, Sue & Co were a pleasure to deal with -Great quality shots, out of a batch of 76 only a few were slightly out of focus and even they were great -Very adaptable, I don't think Sue had ever taken the type of products we were after but she managed to find the best shots very quickly -Able to add an artistic element - I'm not a photographer so I had to depend on her experience to find the best angles for some more complex products without having me to micro manage -No hidden costs, setup fees etc.
Great, prompt & friendly service. Reasonably priced & great packages available. Look forward to seeing our photos. Highly recommended. There's no need to look any further!
I highly recommend Global Sanctuary Photography!! Turned up on time, took plenty of pictures and Tony (the photographer) was fantastic. Had the disc within 3 working days!
Thanks Sue, the photos look really good and service was great. Highly recommend to everyone!
Excellant service and attitude. Was very receptive to our needs and explained the best way forward. Would be an asset to anyone who retains her.
Global Sanctuary is the one you should choose. Stop looking and choose NOW. Karma lead us to her as it has you. Sue is more than professional making our day even better than we thought possible. Nothing was missed. Try and you will also be more than happy with your choice. The photo's are unbelievable, awesome, perfect and will be forever cherished. Thank you Sue
Global Sanctuary was incredibly quick to respond and the price offered was fantastic. We couldn't go past the offer. Follow up service has been excellent also. We are very pleased.
Can't wait to see what comes out on the wedding day. Sue was great communicating and I am very excited.
Chose Global due to fantastic quote and full details of inclusions listed (no hidden costs).
Excellent service will definately be going with Global for our engagement Party photography.
Sue was very prompt in getting back to me and giving me the insight of what should be expected from her. Because we are on a tight budget the price she gave me is absolutely perfect.
Sue didn't quote straight away - she asked me a lot of questions to ensure that the quote given was specific and fair. Most of the other businesses had set packages which did not suit us, and Sue tailored a package that not only met our budget but our needs.
Sue was very fast with a quote and very helpful. She even told me how to close the project :) would reconmend.
Fantastic communication with prompt email replies. We look forward to meeting Sue as our Wedding Photographer!
Great Company. Fabulous Wedding Photos and very friendly staff. Made our day fun
Impressive Photo gallery, very competitive pricing and also Very quick communication made it easy to choose!!!!!
I've received excellent service from Sue, with super quick, helpful responses to my queries and requests. She has been very accommodating & the price was very competitive considering the inclusions. Also she has assisted in organising a videographer for me which is great.
great price, excellent communication and great website to check out work before making the decision.
Quick and prompt response, competitive price. Communication is very good and smooth. I'm pleased to have a business with them.
I was impressed with the detailed timeline of photography Sue sent in her initial contact message to me, plus their website. She answered my emails very very quickly and was so friendly on the phone.
A+ Top Photographer, knows what shes doing and reasonable price. Also can assist in other areas of your wedding incl. videographers, hair stylist etc. defiantly recommend
Sue has already provided excellent customer service and I look forward to working with her for both our trial shoot and the big day!
Very professional, quality service. I am very relieved to find someone so quickly and relieved I'm not breaking the budget!
Prompt, efficient and cost effective quote, good portfolio and website. In negotiations to complete the work next week.
Sue Taylor very nice on the phone and I fell she will do a wonderful job
They were very helpful and responded to all my questions very quickly would recommend.
The details of our function changed several times. Sue was very flexible, assisting by making a package that suited what we wanted, within our budget. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone having a function.
Fantastic options available, even for those on a tight budget. Sue is very kind, understanding and proffessional.

We were extremely impressed with Sue's imagination and ability. She is an extremely hard worker, motivated and seems to love her job. She has creative flair and turned the photos over within 24 hours - most impressive! We would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Sue!
