Without a doubt, the best time to shoot outdoor wedding or portrait photos is around sunrise or sunset. The sun is lower in the sky which is much more flattering and makes it much softer on the skin and more dramatic & beautiful overall.
Below is the list of sunrise and sunset times in Sydney only.

Tammy Stevens - This is fantastic. Very handy and shows you really understand what is needed on a wedding day.
Marc Grist - Fantastic idea. I wish more wedding venues took this into consideration when locking in times for a reception starting time.
