About

Overview & Vibe

Grace Dovaston works out of a natural-light studio at her home in Warracknabeal, in Victoria’s Wimmera, and photographs weddings across the wheat country, the Grampians and down to Bendigo. The published weddings run from a bush ceremony at the Wander Inn at Wartook to a paddock full of hot-pink bridesmaids under a grey Wimmera sky, and the tone throughout is warm, unfussy and a long way from formal.

Style & Approach

She describes her style as super natural, and is explicit about method: she will prompt you but rarely pose you, aiming for some smiling-at-the-camera frames without making them the point, and otherwise capturing people as they interact. Outdoor sessions are timed for golden hour, the hour before sunset or after sunrise, because that is where she wants the light.

Ideal For

Couples anywhere between an elopement for two and a full day with a large bridal party, and particularly those marrying in the Wimmera or the Grampians who would rather not import a photographer and pay for the drive. The elopement collections are real products rather than afterthoughts, and there is a genuinely small entry point for a ceremony-only booking.

The Need-to-Knows

Three wedding collections and two elopement collections. Mini is up to six hours of continuous coverage, Midi up to eight, and Max is eight hours or more and adds a linen-cover twenty-four page album and an engagement couple shoot. Every collection includes a digital photo gallery, a keepsake USB and a pre-wedding consultation. The smaller elopement is ceremony coverage with a gallery and USB; the larger adds couple portraits on location and the album. Custom collections are quoted on enquiry. Travel is charged by the kilometre with the first sixty kilometres included, measured from either Warracknabeal or Bendigo, and prints, framed prints and further albums can be bought on top.

Standout Feature

Two bases rather than one. Travel is measured from Warracknabeal and from Bendigo, and both carry the same sixty free kilometres, which quietly makes an enormous stretch of western and central Victoria local rather than a surcharge, in a part of the state where distance is usually the first thing added to a quote.
