Renaissance Photography: Orange, Bathurst, Dubbo and beyond bio picture

RENAISSANCE: (noun) "A great revival in artistry and learning."
Welcome to our website

We hope you enjoy the rich resource our blog site is slowly becoming. As more weddings are uploaded, you'll be able to click on tags that take you to photos shot at the locations you're considering for your wedding.

Also, rather than only showing you the best 90 images we've ever shot (creating an extemely unrealistic impression of what any photographer will produce on your wedding day), there are over 1,000 wedding images here in total now.

Who Are We?

After training as a press photographer in Brisbane and shooting for several high-end studios and national magazines, in 1998 Graham Schumann decided to bring his passion for editorial style wedding photography to his home town of Orange, and Renaissance Photography was born.

Since then we have offered lifestyle family portraiture, stunning storybook wedding albums, and a candid photojournalistic style of wedding photography that combines unobtrusive story telling, with art.
Do We Travel?

Yes, to Bathurst, the Blue Mountains, Dubbo & the West, Lithgow, Mudgee & the Hunter Valley, Sydney, Canberra, and way beyond.
