Engagement photo sessions are the perfect way to commemorate your engagement, and it's essentially a practice shoot to get comfy with being in front of the camera before the big day!
Have a look through some of my favourite engagement sessions to date for outfit and location inspiration!
My candid, fun, authentic approach!
I’ll be gently directing the both of you and creating prompts throughout your shoot in a way that will encourage you to feel comfortable in front of the camera and natural with each other. My approach is candid, playful and authentic to you as a couple. I love prompting smiles and laughter, as well as those more intimate moments.
Put simply – I am a pro at photographing camera-shy couples. My approach is usually pretty candid, fun and catered to each couple!

Tell me about yourselves, your style, any particular ideas you may have in mind for your shoot, proposed dates proposed location if you have something in mind, or – what vibe, look or theme you’re thinking of so I can suggest some locations!
-
I love receiving Pinterest boards so I can get a good idea of the vibe you’re thinking of, or hearing about your usual clothing style, your interests, and anything else about you two so that I can help plan your session and make outfit and location recommendations accordingly!
PSA: fur babies are super welcome.

I have a list of gorgeous locations up my sleeve (within Melbourne and further out) so there's plenty to choose from, or if you have an amazing or sentimental location you have your heart set on make sure to let me know!
-
Your photo session will be planned an hour or so before sunset so that we have that lovely flattering and golden lighting in almost any weather. If closer to the date it's looking too dreary, we can reschedule for a better day (without any rescheduling costs!).
