Hannah + Yang - Fitzroy
Hannah and Yang flew from Brisbane to Melbourne, trusting us to capture their pre-wedding moments perfectly. Partnering with Mia Ateliers for a stunning gown and coordinating a matching bouquet, we began the shoot at Ma House. We then ventured into the city for a romantic night stroll, finishing at La Madonna Bar for a celebratory drink at Next Hotel. Every detail was carefully curated, making their Melbourne pre-wedding shoot truly unforgettable.
Beatrice + Donald - NGV + PANCAKE PARLOUR
Beatrice and Donald’s pre-wedding shoot was a blend of elegance and sentiment, beginning at the iconic National Gallery of Victoria and the grand Parliament House, before continuing to the sophisticated Hilton Hotel on Little Queen St. The day came full circle with a touch of nostalgia at Pancake Parlour, where they had their first date a decade ago. Each location told a piece of their story, merging Melbourne’s architectural beauty with their shared memories, creating a visual narrative that celebrated their journey from their first meal together to their upcoming vows.
Lucy + Paul - Melbourne University
Lucy and Paul visited Melbourne for the first time to attend a friend’s wedding and took the opportunity to capture their pre-wedding photos in the city’s timeless charm. Drawn to the classic vibe of Melbourne’s historic architecture, we explored iconic locations like Melbourne University and the elegant Collins Street, creating a collection that beautifully blends romance with the city’s rich character.
Sibyl + David - Mt Dandenong
Sibyl and David, two quiet souls with a love for privacy, chose the serene beauty of Mt Dandenong and the secluded charm of Half Moon Bay for their photos. These intimate settings perfectly reflected their personalities, allowing their connection to shine through in a peaceful, private atmosphere.
Katherine + Nick - Docklands boat Ride
Katherine and Nick’s elopement was anything but ordinary. Skipping traditional ceremony photos, they opted for an intimate early morning ceremony (unphotographed), followed by relaxed getting-ready moments at their suburban home in the afternoon. To top off their unique day, they enjoyed a romantic boat ride through the city, complete with a cozy picnic vibe that perfectly captured their adventurous and unconventional spirit.
Yixuan + Peilin - Melbourne Uni + NGV
Yixuan and Peilin’s photoshoot was a blend of love and artistry, reflecting their story and passions. Beginning at the National Gallery of Victoria, the striking architecture set the stage for Yixuan, an architecture student, to shine. The couple then returned to Melbourne University, where their love story first blossomed, before ending the day at St Kilda’s vibrant Luna Park, capturing the perfect mix of romance, nostalgia, and whimsy.
Channie + Lucas - Le Space
Channie and Lucas flew in from Queensland specifically to have a photoshoot with us. When we asked them what they liked about Melbourne, they said, "Everything you recommended is great." So, based on their clothing preferences, we customised a one of a kind photoshoot route for them.
The first stop was an art gallery called Le Space in Collingwood, the second stop was a place we thought would be perfect for a shoot while taking the train, and the third stop was the NGV Ian Potter Centre. We wrapped it all up with the last half-hour at some cute shops on Collins St.
