Love by Shae
About
Overview & Vibe
Love by Shae is the wedding photography studio of Monica, a Melbourne-based photographer with more than fifteen years behind the camera who now splits her calendar between Victoria and Europe. The work is deliberately editorial: elegant composition, a pursuit of light, and a finish that leans luxurious without tipping into fuss. Collections begin at $4,500 and the studio takes bookings for Paris, Lake Como, Italy and Greece alongside its Melbourne diary.
Style & Approach
She describes her frames as shaped by editorial framing and refined direction, with an eye for authentic storytelling that lifts genuine moments into something timeless. On the day itself the approach is calm, considered and unobtrusive, capturing what unfolds naturally alongside the quiet in-between moments and the details.
Ideal For
Couples who want an editorial, fashion-aware record of the day rather than a documentary one, and who are planning either a Melbourne wedding or a European celebration. The 2026 and 2027 European seasons are open, and the studio also photographs in the Yarra Valley and around Echuca-Moama.
The Need-to-Knows
Collections start at $4,500, with the entry collection covering eight hours. A signed contract and a thirty per cent booking fee secure the date. A curated set of preview images lands within 24 to 48 hours, with the full gallery delivered privately online, and a forty-page wedding guide plus timeline planning come as part of the lead-up.
Standout Feature
The planning support is unusually structured for a single-photographer studio: a tailored questionnaire, scheduled check-ins, a forty-page guide and a wedding-day timeline built together, so the coverage is planned rather than improvised.
Albums & Prints
- Printed keepsakes and albums designed to last, offered after the gallery is delivered.
- An online print shop is available to couples alongside the albums.
Appointment Policy
- Couples enquire through the form and receive a private link to book a one-on-one consultation.
