Meet Your Photographer
Every love story deserves to be told with authenticity, warmth, and a little bit of magic.

Years of Storytelling
Alex Chen
Lead Photographer & Founder
I picked up my first camera because I wanted to remember how love feels — not just how it looks. After twelve years and over 350 weddings, that motivation hasn’t changed. Every couple I work with teaches me something new about connection, joy, and the quiet moments that matter most.
My approach is documentary-style with a touch of gentle direction. I believe the best wedding photos happen when you’re genuinely enjoying your day, not performing for the camera. I’ll guide you when needed and step back when the magic unfolds on its own.
Based in Melbourne, I’ve shot weddings in churches, on beaches, in vineyards, and in backyards. Each one has been an honour. I’d love to hear about what you’re planning.
Capturing authentic emotions while ensuring you look your absolute best
The Experience
From our first conversation to the moment you open your gallery, here's what your photography journey looks like.
The Consultation
We meet over coffee (or video call) to chat about your vision, your venue, and the moments that matter most to you. No pressure — just a relaxed conversation about your day.
The Engagement Session
A fun, relaxed photo session before the wedding. It helps us get to know each other and you get comfortable in front of the camera. Perfect for save-the-dates too.
Your Wedding Day
I blend into the background, capturing candid moments while guiding you gently through portraits. You enjoy your day — I handle the memories.
Your Gallery
Within 6–8 weeks, your fully edited gallery arrives. A sneak peek within 48 hours keeps the excitement alive while you wait for the complete collection.
Equipment & Approach
I invest in professional-grade equipment because your memories deserve the highest quality. Every wedding I shoot, I bring backup gear — your day is too important to leave to chance.
My style is documentary with elegant direction. I capture the candid, unscripted moments while ensuring you look your absolute best during portraits. No awkward poses — just genuine connection.
