SvenStudios in Top 15 Best Wedding Photographers Nationally

We are thrilled to announce that SvenStudios has been recognized as one of the top 15 best wedding photographers in Australia by the prestigious ‘Designer of Dreams’ awards run by ABIA! This is an incredible achievement for our team, and we are so proud to have been recognized for our dedication to capturing the beauty, joy, and emotion of every wedding we photograph!

For those who may not be familiar with ABIA – or the Australian Bridal Industry Academy, it is an organization that connects engaged couples with the best wedding vendors in Australia. Their mission is to provide engaged couples with reliable and trustworthy information about wedding vendors, to help them make informed decisions about their special day.

The Designer of Dreams awards are ABIA’s way of recognizing the top wedding vendors in Australia, and we are honored to have been included in this prestigious list!

SvenStudios was eligible for the Designer of Dreams award as we were finalists in the South Australian state awards for each of the last four years. ABIA requires vendors to be consistently excellent and meet certain criteria to be eligible for the Designer of Dreams award.

To be eligible as a finalist in the state awards, vendors are required to have an aggregate review score from all the bridal couples we photographed during the previous year of above 95%. SvenStudios has consistently exceeded this threshold, demonstrating their commitment to providing exceptional service and capturing the beauty and emotion of every wedding we photograph.

Our high level of client satisfaction has earned us a reputation as one of the best wedding photographers in South Australia, and now also nationally!

What makes us one of the best wedding photographers in Australia?

We believe that our success is due to our combination of technical skill and dedication to our clients. We pride ourselves on taking the time to produce photography that truely tells the story of our couples’ personalities, to understand their vision for their wedding, and to make sure that every detail is perfect. We go above and beyond to ensure that our clients are happy and satisfied with their photos.

Of course, none of this would be possible without our incredible past couples who voted for us with their incredible reviews! We’d like to thank all of you who took the time and effort to write such wonderful words expressing your love for what we produce from the bootom of our hearts!

Announcing the SvenStudios 2023 Wedding Photo of the year winner!

I’m pleased to say that after another year of shooting weddings in Adelaide and around Australia, I can announce the people’s choice 2023 wedding photo of the year as shot by SvenStudios!

The photographs that were in conntention this year here were captured by SvenStudios during various weddings in 2022. The  featured couples selected these specific images as their top favorites from all of the images we provided and the photograph that received the highest votes is entitled to a product voucher worth $500 towards printing some of their photos!

This competition is a way for us to express our gratitude to all the bridal couples we have worked with during the year, while also gathering feedback on how others perceive our photography beyond our own perspective.

Please note that these photographs may or may not align with our personal favorites from the weddings – which is kind of the point of running this contest – it’s all about learning what people like! While feedback and reviews are fantastic – there nothing like having a favourite image from each wedding given to us to understand what people see in our work!

The 2023 Wedding Photo of the year winner is –

Congratulations to Sash and Dan for winning the 2023 Wedding Photo of the year! You should have now recieved a $500 voucher to go towards some prints! I’d love to see what you choose!

2022 Onkaparinga Business Awards Winner!

Last night I attended the 2022 Onkaparinga Business Awards presentation event hosted at the Mclaren Vale visitor center and by the lovely ladies behind Adelady. I expected to head out there, enjoy the free food, gin and icecream, then head home after rubbing shoulders with the owners of the best businesses the Onkaparinga region has to offer.

lo and behold I actually managed to win my category! SvenStudios was crowned as the ‘best artist, musician or creator’ in the city of Onkaparinga for 2022, and it’s all thanks to everyon who voted!

The award is given to the most voted for business in any given category – SvenStudios’ category being ‘Captivating creative services’ and then all the voted for businesses are given sub categories. So thankyou everyone who voted! Means a lot!

SvenStudios was originally placed in the ‘Marketing, Design and Media’ category, but then was changed to the ‘Artist, Musician or Creator’ category, which suited what I do better as the other finalists in the formaer category seemed to cater more towards other businesses, and corperate clients, while I focus on domestic photography, for familes and of course weddings!

I believe this was the first year where the awards has a specific category for artsists, or creators so it’s pretty awesome to win it at the 2022 Onkaparinga Business Awards! I had been entering and trying to agther votes over the past few years but never got to be a finalist until last night!

These past few years have been insanely hectic and stressful in the wedding industry, but everything is coming up Milhouse today!

2022 SA ABIA Awards results

It’s that time of year again, all the wedding industry awards are being held, and the ABIA awards are the one I put most stock in. The 2022 SA ABIA Awards saw SvenStudios once again rise to the top of the best wedding suppliers available in South Australia in all that we offer – Wedding Photography, Videography and Photobooth Hire. But the competition in this great state of ours is always super tight, which means we still have not achieved a winning gold star, despite getting close once again!

I managed to come away with a runner-up star with my photobooth hire service, while being a finalist in the wedding photographer and Videographer categories.

The way the ABIA Wedding Awards work is unique in that the awards are soley decided on the reviews recieved from previous wedding couples who have reviewd your services. Each couple give a score out of 100 in varying fields and it culminates into your final score.

In order to qualify as a finalist in the yearly awards, a wedding supplier must earn an overall score of over 95%, so just managing to be a finalist means that your couples have been absolutely estatic with your work – it merely comes down to some scores in the 99, and 98 range that decides the winner in each category.

It’s actually a little frustrating recieving an overall score of 98.69% for wedding photography, and 98.73% for wedding videography and still not winning the gold star in the 2022 SA ABIA Awards! But it just goes to show the amount of fantastic suppliers and competition out there in South Australia, and these scores mean that all my couples in the last year that voted are very pleased with my work! Which is the greatest award really.

Thankyou to all those who took the time to fill out the review form after every wedding – it’s the best thing in the world to hear such positive feedback from my couples and it keeps me going!

Particulary over the last few months where I’ve lost all my social media accounts due to identity theft and Facebook being Facebook. If you diddn’t know about that please do refollow me on my new social accounts! Means a lot!

2021 South Australian ABIA Awards Results

Yet another year has been and past, and what a year it has been for the wedding industry! This past week saw the announcement of the winners of the 2021 South Australian ABIA Awards and I can proudly say that SvenStudios has once again shown to be one of the top rated wedding suppliers in South Australia!

The ABIA awards (Australian Bridal Industry Academy) are awarded to wedding vendors in a wide variety of categories in each state, and also nationally each year. In previous years, SvenStudios has proudly been a finalist in a number of categories, including wedding photographer, photobooth supplier, and this year also being a fionalist int he wedding videography category. In the 2020 edition of the awards, SvenStudios was awarded the runner-up wedding photographer of the year and the runner-up best photobooth supplier of the year gongs in South Australia so we were quite optimistic about the results of the 2021 South Australian ABIA Awards!

Unfortunately we diddn’t quite take out the golden star as the best wedding photographer, nor the best wedding videographer in the state, although we are very proud to have been selected as a finalist in both these categories!

In order to be a finalist in a category an aggregate rating drawn from reviews direct from previous couples are collated and run through an algorithm to find the best rated supplier in each category. A finalist is a supplier who achieved a rating of 95% or above. SvenStudios recieved an aggregate rating of 97.94% for wedding photography, and 96.18% as a wedding videographer!

The ABIA Awards are a unique way of running awards with the winners soley selected by the reviews given by previous couples the supplier has served at their actual wedding in the previous year. In this way future engaged couples are better informed by how well a certain supplier has bee recieved in the past by other couples, without having to rely on ‘industry expert’ awards awarded by people not in any way involved with a supplier’s past work.

As a result SvenStudios are super happy and proud to have recieved such glowing reviews over the past year by our newly wedded couples and super pleased to be a finalist wedding photographer and videographer in the 2021 South Australian ABIA Awards! Thanks so much for those who took the time to write out a lovely review, and hopefully next year we can take out the golden star!
