About
Overview & Vibe
A boutique Melbourne wedding photography studio run as a two-person team, trading since 2012. Coverage is sold as three clear packages rather than by the hour alone, and travel across Melbourne, the Yarra Valley and the Mornington Peninsula is included in every one of them.
Style & Approach
Creative photojournalism: photographs of what happens rather than arranged scenes, aiming for images that look natural rather than posed. The stated intention is that couples forget the camera is there, and the studio describes its own work as modern, candid and romantic.
Ideal For
Couples marrying in Melbourne, the Yarra Valley or on the Mornington Peninsula who want a fixed, transparent price with travel already covered, and who would rather be documented than directed. The shortest package suits elopements and intimate weddings; the longest covers a full day into a late reception.
The Need-to-Knows
Packages run from $5,450 for up to six hours to $8,450 for up to twelve, with roughly 250 to 600 images depending on length. Extra hours are $500. Every package includes a planning session, an online gallery held for at least a year, and fully processed high-resolution images with no watermarks and full personal copyright. A second photographer is available on enquiry.
Standout Feature
Travel is genuinely included across three regions rather than charged as an extra, and the studio states plainly that couples are never pushed to buy prints or albums.
Albums & Prints
- Wedding albums. Price: On enquiry. Description: Luxurious albums designed from the delivered images.
- Wedding photobooks. Price: On enquiry. Description: Photobooks offered alongside the album line.
