Of course, you get the beach and the pier. Alternatively, you can have a walk at Fitzroy Street or catch a tram. Visit Luna park or have a coffee in one of the trendy places there.

The beaches of Albert Park and Port Melbourne are close and offer plenty of options. There are iconic locations as the princess pier or just the plan trees along Beaconsfield parade which provide a perfect backdrop for your St Kilda Beach Wedding photography.

Luxury Weddings in Melbourne – MLC Kew

The bride and groom decided to get ready at the families private homes. We always like this as it adds a bit of a personal touch. An emotional and touching ceremony was held at the MLC college in Kew. We did a few wedding family photos there and opened a bottle of champagne to celebrate with the bridal team. The cork nearly hit the camera and we had lots of fun at the stunning location. The old buildings combined with the luxury cars – Rolls Royce and Jaguar gave us a luxury classic wedding backdrop.

St Kilda Beach Wedding Photography

Change of scene! We made our way to St Kilda were the wedding function was held at Encore, St Kilda. The wedding venue is directly at the beachfront and makes a perfect location for a stunning beach wedding. After the classic and luxury of the leafy suburb of Kew, it was a welcoming contrast to photograph the couple at the beach.

St Kilda Beach Wedding photography is not easy. St Kilda Pier is usually busy at sunset but there is always some empty spot to find to take beautiful beach wedding photos. As wedding photographers, we just love the beauty and simplicity of the beach. Perfect for our wonderful couple.

Encore is a stylish and modern wedding venue at the beach in St Kilda. Great food and perfect service make it one of the first choices for beach weddings.

Melbourne Suburbs for Beach Wedding Photography

There are plenty of other Melbourne suburbs which would be ideal for beach wedding photography. Close to the CBD are Port Melbourne, Albert Park and St Kilda. Than you have the luxurious locations of Elwood, Brighton (Point green and the Beach boxes are well known wedding photography locations close to the beach), Hampton down to Sandringham.

Black Rock is a wonderful beach wedding location. When you go even further south east you get more secluded beaches and have lots of space – Chelsea, Carrum Downs or Seaford are some examples.

But don’t forget the other side of the town – Williamstown and Altona are perfect for beach wedding photography. Melbourne has definitely more to offer than just St Kilda beach wedding photography. So many beautiful beaches to chose from. Enjoy your beach wedding.

Melbourne Beach Wedding Photography

Less hectic than the beaches in Brighton, St Kilda and Albert Park make a perfect backdrop for a romantic beach photography session. We always hope for a sunny day with a few clouds – not too hot and this time we just had the perfect weather. When the venue is close to the beach it’s usually no problem to just go for a quick beach walk and relax a bit … escape the wedding and go on a mini elopement on the beach – just the bride and groom.

But let us start at the beginning …

Stunning Beach Wedding

It’s a French – Australian love. The couple lives in Paris, France – French bride – Australian groom :-). They both got ready close to the beach … in a very different type of environment. Some AFL footy for the guys … some luxurious french champagne in style for the girls. A perfect fit!

The wedding gown was just stunning – hand made by the grandmother. French chic! OMG! A dream wedding dress which just suits the bride perfectly.

The wedding ceremony was directly located on the pier. The harsh sun is always a big problem here – so it is advisable to try to have the light from the back – otherwise, you will constantly blink and blinded and will not be able to enjoy the wedding. The wedding decoration was kept simple and suited a beach wedding in Melbourne – you just need some sand, the water and a beautiful couple. The father walked with his daughter across the beach to the pier where the groom was awaiting his bride.

Empty beaches make beach wedding photography in Melbourne a bit easier – and as we have a lot of beaches there is enough space for everyone.  Simple lines and a clean beach is something which we love photographing! A walk in the sand. Barefoot. Fun. Luxury.

A photo prop like an oversized balloon helps to forget the camera (ah well … this couple was just so in love that they forgot the surrounds completely) and makes for wonderful images. Stylish and simple – clean lines is what makes Melbourne beach wedding photography so special. As you never can plan the weather you need to stay flexible and get the best light (we will help you plan your day!).

Melbourne Bayside – Wedding Photography

The function was lots of fun at the Carrum Bowling Club … plenty of dancing, drinks, laughter. The guests enjoyed themselves and celebrated until deep in the night. And in true French tradition there was, of course, an after-party in the city. Yeah … in Europe you don’t stop a wedding party at midnight that is where you just get started.

L’amour vrai!

What a wonderful wedding on the beaches of Melbourne.
