Victoria & Sam were married at Montsalvat, the unique artists colony in Eltham. Not quite Melbourne and not quite the Yarra Valley, Montsalvat exists in it’s only little world and feels a thousand miles from the nearby suburbs and city. I remember visiting when I first arrived in Melbourne from London and felt like I’d…
Loz & Nath chose the perfect Melbourne wedding venue for a 35 degree day – Mountain Goat brewery! Yup, somewhere that serves great cold beer. Winner! Following a refreshing ale and a ceremony conducted by the always amusing Anthony Cribbes, we ventured outside for a few photos around Richmond’s alleys and backstreets before returning to…
Flinders Yacht Club on the Mornington Peninsula was the beautiful location that Kirsten & Shane and chose for their marriage ceremony and reception. Kirsten readied herself along with her best friend and children at a nearby cottage in Flinders village before arriving at the venue in a sky blue VW Kombi from Peninsula Kombi Bus…
Wedding photography isn’t just about the people, it’s also about the little details that accompany them and I really enjoy finding the hidden treasures that await me when I shoot a wedding. Some of the best places to unearth these treasures are at the home of the bride or groom or their parent’s home. It’s…
…and the groom somehow acquires a clutch purse and 4 small dogs! Having finished the portraits of the couple at the Botanical Gardens and ACDC Lane I thought it would just be a short walk up Flinders Lane to Rachel & Rhys’ wedding venue White Lane. Rhys had other ideas! I really get a kick…
The great thing about a weekday wedding ceremony is that it’s generally pretty relaxed. This one was no different. Combined with the fact that Lauren & Josh’s wedding was planned just a month in advance seemed to make their’s even more relaxed still! With an early afternoon ceremony at the Melbourne registry I wandered some…
With two young kids in my life I’m not averse to the occasional afternoon nana-nap. Much like this young choirboy at a recent wedding! The venue and date are withheld so the cassocked dozer doesn’t get into trouble! View more candid Melbourne wedding photography by Simon Woodcock
Well, the last wedding of the season booked in for Samantha & Jesse it was looking like it was going to be wet. Very wet. The night before, it rained. In the morning, it rained. In the afternoon, it stopped. Woo hoo! So, we didn’t get glorious sunshine, but we did get an afternoon of…
OK, so the bride has just reached the altar with her Father, who has shaken the groom’s hand, kissed his daughter and is now walking away, confident that he has fulfilled his parental duties brilliantly. Which he has, until….. he accidentally steps on the bride’s veil tearing it from her head. I can almost hear…
Susie & Ian held an intimate and relaxed wedding at the Portsea Hotel earlier in the year. The setting there is just perfect – guests get a view of the ocean behind the couple during their ceremony and then an uninterrupted 180 degree view of the ocean from the reception on the balcony. They even…
