melbourne weddings - the couple #1

Weather played havoc last week, two shoots postponed, mostly stayed in.

melbourne weddings - the bride #1

All weddings are different. This is rule number one in our approach to wedding photography. We follow this philosophy because a 'cookie cutter' look doesn't really respect the individuality of the couple. This is true of posing a bride, or not posing a bride - as what works for one person does not necessarily work for another. We take great care on the wedding day to keep the day moving, allowing the bride and groom to feel relaxed and not get caught up in poses. Here's a selection of bride shots that we love.
