Alison & Matt’s Pre-Wedding Session in Melbourne

Alison and Matt’s session felt exactly how a destination shoot should — relaxed, unforced, and full of little moments that showed who they are. We started the day at the beach along the Mornington Peninsula, where they walked barefoot on the sand and let the morning light guide the mood. Their outfits were simple and casual, letting the focus stay on their connection and the calm around them.

From there, we moved to the vineyards — one of those timeless backdrops that always gives space to breathe and just be. With no crowds and no distractions, we had the freedom to move slowly, catching portraits that felt honest and quiet.

In the evening, we brought the session back into the city. Melbourne at night carries a different kind of charm — soft lights, brick walls, and a skyline that hums quietly in the background. Alison and Matt explored the city streets like locals, with outfits that matched the mood but stayed true to who they are.

We followed them into North Melbourne for one last scene the next day — riding their bikes through empty streets, laughing as they went. No setups, no poses. Just real life, in motion.

Melbourne is one of those places that gives variety without needing much effort. Beach, vineyard, and city — all in one shoot. And for destination couples like Alison and Matt, it gave them a day they won’t forget, sealed in photographs that feel both natural and timeless.
