No travel fees for:
melbourne/Victoria
June/July Darwin
September/October Sunshine Coast
Your wedding day is filled with real, unrepeatable moments—and your photos should celebrate all of them.
Long after the flowers have faded and the music has stopped, your photographs remain.
They become the way you remember the day — the way it looked, the way it felt, and the people who shared it with you.
Investing in thoughtful wedding photography means preserving those memories with care, so they can be revisited not just years from now, but decades from now.
Photos that let you stay in the moment
Hey, im shiv
I’m a wedding photographer who believes the best moments happen when you stop trying to be perfect and start being present.
I grew up in Victoria, spent years on the Sunshine Coast, and have called Darwin home while travelling through some of Australia’s most beautiful, rugged places.
Somewhere along the way, I realised the weddings I’m most drawn to are the ones that feel deeply personal and connected to nature— outdoors, on family properties, by the ocean, beside a river, under open skies, or somewhere that already means something to you.
From 2027, I’ll be based in Victoria again, photographing weddings across regional VIC, with select travel dates for Darwin, the Sunshine Coast and remote celebrations around Australia.

Testimonials
We can’t recommend Shiv enough! She captured our day perfectly and we couldn’t be more in love with the photos! She is such a lovely, easygoing person and felt like another guest in the best way possible.

Testimonials
Shiv shot our wedding at Kilcoy in early September. The lead up to the wedding was great. Shiv was in regular contact and easy to work with. On the day, Shiv blended in seamlessly and was fun to work with. She listed to what we wanted and made the day really enjoyable. Our photos were fantastic. We could not have been happier with Shiv’s project. She delivered 100's of edited photos within two weeks of the wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Shiv to anyone.

STEP 03
wedding day
It's finally here! On your wedding day, I’m there for it all — the nerves, the happy tears, the chaos, the hugs and the wild dance floor moments.
I work in a calm, confident way — keeping things running smoothly while making sure you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I’ll step in with clear, easy direction when it’s helpful and step back when the real moments unfold.
From emotional vows to wild dance floor energy, I’m there to document it all without it ever feeling forced.
STEP 04
photo delivery
I deliver sneak peeks to you within 24-48 hours of your wedding day so you can relive the most important moments all over again (and do the obligatory Instagram post of course!)
And then within just 14 days you get the rest of your beautiful gallery sent straight to your inbox. No waiting for months to re-live the best day of your lives.
From there, you’ll have the option to order handcrafted wedding albums and professional-quality prints — so your favourite memories don’t just live on a screen, but in your hands and on your walls.
35mm Film Photography
A timeless addition to your wedding gallery.
Alongside digital coverage, I offer the option to include 35mm film photography throughout your day. Film has a softness and character that feels naturally timeless, with rich tones and subtle grain that add depth to your images. It’s a beautiful way to capture a few moments on a medium that feels both nostalgic and enduring.
