Haven Images

About

Overview & Vibe

Haven Images is the wedding practice of Emma, working from Gippsland across Victoria and Australia-wide. She photographs and films the same day, so a booking can cover both stills and a storytelling video without bringing in a second supplier. The tone is warm and unhurried: joy, dancefloor mayhem and the quiet moments in between, captured by someone who mostly stays out of the way.

Style & Approach

The work is documentary in temper. She sets out to catch the split-second moments — the laughter, the way a face lights up — and says that most of the time you will not know she is there, except during the portrait session. The films weave in parts of the speeches so the day can be watched back rather than only looked at, and every package includes a second shooter.

Ideal For

Couples who want photography and video from one person and one visual sensibility, and who care about hearing their loved ones speak as much as seeing them. It suits Gippsland weddings especially well, and she regularly travels to Melbourne. Couples wanting a physical heirloom are well served by the album and wall-art line.

The Need-to-Knows

Full-day photography packages start at $5,300 on their own, and most couples spend between $9,500 and $11,500 for a combination of photography and video. A full pricelist is sent on request. Booking runs through an introductory video call, then a non-refundable retainer and a signed contract; closer to the day there is a questionnaire and an in-person planning meeting.

Standout Feature

The Heirloom Package delivers the ceremony and the speeches recorded in full with professional audio, plus all the raw video footage from the day, alongside the edited film, the image gallery and a hand-crafted album. Handing over the raw footage is unusual and it means nothing spoken on the day is lost.

The Email You Do Not Have to Write

Nobody is going to tell you that you are not welcome. Some say that you are, in writing, before anybody asks.

The Mountain Is a Timetable

An elopement on a summit is a walk with a deadline, and the walk is the part you are paying for.

The Tiebreaker Is Not in the Gallery

Timeline help sits on a photographer's inclusion list and reads like packaging. It is not. How early she does it is what separates the last two on your shortlist.
