Nervous about being photographed or Camera Shy?

Wedding Photography Melbourne are photojournalist photographers based in Reservoir, Victoria, Australia. We offer low stress photographic services for the “camera shy” – those of us not necessarily comfortable with the thought of being photographed.

Skilled  wedding photographers have an intuitive skill for reading moments, understanding human nature and going with the flow of the day – not trying to run it. This way, you are captured naturally – the point of reaction – joy, laughter and love reflected in your images.

There are a range of things to be done to help you feel relaxed and calm, including the use of “long” lenses, excellent people skills and the ability to take control in situations that warrant. Stressed people, take tense photos, so we will take all measures to give you space when you need it and attention to detail when required.

People often feel confronted with the thought of posing, or the “setup” shots.  Our philosophy is, the more comfortable and relaxed you are, the beauty from within comes to the fore. You need the personal space to reflect on togetherness and time to drink in the moment. Everyone is different, so each shoot is as personal as it is unique. By going with the flow, a photographer can make decisions based on personality, feel and timing, capturing the soul of your wedding day and the sparkle in your eye.

What’s the best thing a wedding couple could do to look great in their wedding photos?
Answer: Be Happy. Be excited. Express yourself.

There are almost always, traditionally expected formal shots associated with a wedding. We believe that these shots can best be served by being well organised with lists and a people gatherer. Organising these groups can be time consuming, without some preparation.

We say that there is no such thing as a wedding day disaster. Rain, hail or shine, there is beauty to be found almost anywhere indoors or out.

There’s no point in stressing about things you can’t control. I saw a Bride once, that lost 40 minutes of her wedding reception because she lost an earring. Guests, bridal  party and the couple wandered the grounds of the reception centre until it was eventually found in the top of her dress.
