Wedding
Photography Melbourne

We make bold, beautiful and unique photographs that are focussed on moments. Like you, we don’t love forced, posed photography and so most of the day we are in documentary mode, capturing moments as they happen on your day. For the portraits, we will offer direction so you feel comfortable but not too much that it feels forced.

Your full gallery will be online inside 6 weeks. It’s written into your contract, so you’ve always got peace of mind that there won’t be any massive months-long wait. Oh, and since we love your faces, we’ll send you a dozen or so ‘sneak peeks’ the day after the wedding too, so you’ve got something to share and enjoy straight away. You will receive a stunning and personalised online gallery where you can organise, keep, share and print your photos from.

When you book Hey Jack you will book in one of our 3 lead photographers for your wedding day. We love to keep things intimate and not make a big production of the photos. Our premium packages include two shooters and we recommend this for larger weddings, numbers over 150.

Yes! We love to see photos get printed and made into albums. It brings them to life. We offer amazing custom designed albums. We also can arrange custom framed prints. For smaller prints and products, your online gallery will have a store attached which makes the whole process very easy.

Absolutely. This is part of the personalised service that is included for all our wedding clients. In fact, this is what makes us different from other photographers. With over 20 collective years in the industry within our team we have the expertise to plan complex events, so assisting with a wedding timeline is just part of the service.

I always suggest we meet via phone conversation or on a zoom chat. This is an opportunity to get to know each other, and we can discuss the plan for your big day. Every wedding is different, so we discuss a unique plan tailored specifically for your wedding day.

Do many people really love having their pic taken? I am very happy to be behind the camera most days not in front of it lol. We have many ways to help you both feel super comfy with us on that day, so much so that by the time we get to the portrait part of the day things will feel really natural. We provide loose direction to you during portraits, to put you in great light (we’re photo nerds for great light) and also to ensure you’re images feel as natural as possible. No cheesy shiz here, only timeless, fun and natural imagery. After 10 years of photographing people, I understand that is all about both of you feeling safe enough to be yourself and have a laugh. If you need it, I give you as much or little direction as you need.

It’s very cool. There’s a lot of crazy wedding traditions out there, that just don’t make sense these days. Not keen on a bouquet toss? don’t do it! Don’t want a bridal party at all? Scrap it. Your wedding should be as unique to you both as possible, and shouldn’t fit a mould. We’ve photographed some crazy moments over the years, and have some cool stories of unique weddings we could share, so we hope that trend continues.

This is our full-time gig. We’re not the cheapest wedding photographers around, but we’re not the most expensive either. You’ll find the cheaper guys are often supporting themselves with part-time jobs, shooting just a couple of wedding a year to supplement their income. But you’ll find they don’t have the insurances and backup procedures in place that a professional should have; the experience to adapt to a wedding day’s challenges, and won’t often do your wedding day justice. Most of all, they’re not just not Hey Jack!

Absolutely we do. In Melbourne, some wedding venues will insist that any contractor that comes onto their property to work, such as a photographer on a wedding day, be covered by 5 million or up to 20 million in Public Liability Insurance. Please feel free to request a copy of our Certificate for 20 Million Public Liability cover at any time.

We shoot weddings solo most of the time. If we need a second shooter, that budget is added to the total cost of the booking. Second shooters are great for weddings larger than 100 guests. It’s not essential, but it can help increase the ability to photograph your guests and their shenanigans and funny business you may otherwise not see. Weddings increasing in numbers beyond 120 are highly recommended to have a second shooter.

Love is love, we feel sad we have to mention that we support and capture all forms of love.

Authentic, fun and creative. We believe that you photos shouldn’t be a process, and that you don’t need to be away from your guests for hours on end. We provide loose direction to you for photographs on your day, but keep things light, relaxed and fun.
