Wedding photography
in Melbourne.

The city I grew up in.

Melbourne is where I learned to photograph weddings, and where most of my work still happens. From a registry ceremony at the State Building to a backyard celebration in the inner north, the city's strength is its variation: terrace houses, warehouse venues, riverside parks, and the kind of laneway light photographers rave about for a reason.

I've shot at Glasshaus in Richmond, the Royal Exhibition Building in Carlton, and through Parliament Gardens between ceremony and reception. The trick with a Melbourne wedding is timing: traffic, weather, and the city's habit of giving you four seasons in an afternoon all matter. I plan portrait windows tight enough that a sudden change of plan never costs you the photographs that matter.

For couples in apartments and small inner-city homes, getting-ready photographs come down to finding a clean window of light, not a styled space. That's something I've done hundreds of times. You don't need a perfect Pinterest room. You need a photographer who knows how to make any room look like one.
