Viveash Photography
About
Overview & Vibe
Bec Viveash photographs weddings from Manly, on Sydney’s northern beaches, and has been working since 2011. Hers is an unusually art-led practice: she describes herself as a self-representing art photographer and educator, exhibits her own work, and brings that eye to a wedding day — warm skin tones in late afternoon light, bold colour, city grit against ocean calm. The published weddings run from barefoot vows in the bush to rooftop ceremonies above the harbour, and she notes that she photographs a great many multicultural couples.
Style & Approach
Her own summary is candid, honest and romantic documentary photography. The stated goal is to tell the story of a day as unobtrusively as possible, moving around a wedding relatively unnoticed and catching the odd quirks a couple might miss — she says she is often told we forgot you were there, and is sometimes mistaken for a guest. She describes herself as the sort who watches people on buses, and it shows in the work: a lot of reportage, guests caught mid-laugh, and details noticed rather than arranged.
Ideal For
Couples who do not want traditional, stiff wedding photographs and like some edge in their images. Her own description of her clients is hipsters and non-hipsters, people who want barefoot vows in the bush, and second-timers who have done the big white dress once and now just want a party with friends. The pricing ladder makes her unusually flexible — a couple can book two hours for a small ceremony or ten hours for a full day, at published rates either way.
The Need-to-Knows
Four wedding packages are published: four hours at $1,700 with 300 or more edited images, six hours at $2,230 with 450 or more, eight hours at $2,800 with 600 or more, and ten hours at $3,100 with 750 or more. Hourly booking starts at $850 for a two-hour minimum, which is the cheapest bookable wedding option. Every booking includes a private online selection gallery that stays up for three months, high-resolution files of every image in that gallery, a personalised slideshow, and travel within Sydney. The full-day booking adds a free engagement shoot. Note that the packages page and the booking system quote different figures for the same ten-hour product, so confirm the price when enquiring.
Standout Feature
The hourly option is the rare thing here. Most wedding photographers sell a minimum day; she publishes a two-hour rate and says plainly that not all weddings, budgets or styles are the same and they should not be. For a registry ceremony, a small elopement or a couple who only want the ceremony covered, that is a published price rather than a conversation — and it sits beside a full ten-hour package from the same photographer.
