Capturing Love in Every Frame: My Experience with Geelong Boutique Weddings
As a local photographer, there’s nothing more rewarding than being part of a couple’s big day—especially when it's set against the beautiful backdrop of Geelong. Over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Geelong Boutique Weddings, and I can honestly say it’s one of the most heartfelt and professional wedding teams I’ve collaborated with.
A Local Gem for Intimate, Elegant Weddings
Geelong Boutique Weddings has carved out a special place in the local wedding scene by focusing on intimate, stylish, and highly personalised experiences. Whether it's a small elopement on the waterfront or a chic ceremony in one of Geelong’s historic venues, their team handles every detail with care. For a photographer, that means every event feels uniquely crafted—never cookie-cutter—and that shines through in every photo.
Why I Love Shooting with GBW
One of the best things about working with Geelong Boutique Weddings is the seamless coordination. Their team knows how to balance structure with spontaneity. That means I get the time and space I need to capture candid, emotional moments—without the stress.
Here’s what stands out to me every time I work with them:
-
Stunning locations: From Eastern Beach to hidden garden venues, each setting is carefully chosen and always camera-ready.
-
Couples who feel comfortable: Thanks to the relaxed planning process, couples are more at ease on the day—which makes for genuine, joyful photos.
-
Attention to detail: From florals to timelines, nothing is overlooked, and it all adds up to weddings that look and feel beautiful in every frame.
Favorite Moments from Recent Weddings
Here are just a few highlights from recent weddings I’ve captured with Geelong Boutique Weddings:

Relaxed vibes at Industrie26
This industrial-chic venue offers such a cool, modern backdrop. I love how the space allows couples to bring their own personality into the day—laid-back, stylish, and effortlessly cool. -
Stunning views at 360Q
There’s something magical about shooting at 360Q in Queenscliff. With panoramic waterfront views and soft natural light, every photo feels like a postcard. It’s a dream location for golden hour portraits. -
My favourite local beaches around Geelong
Whether it's the quiet coves near Barwon Heads or the open sands of Eastern Beach, there’s nothing like capturing love with the ocean as a backdrop. These spots offer a beautiful, natural setting that’s perfect for intimate ceremonies and romantic portraits.
Final Thoughts
If you’re planning a wedding in Geelong and looking for a boutique experience with heart, I can't recommend Geelong Boutique Weddings enough. It’s not just about beautiful events—it’s about creating memories that last, and as a photographer, it's an honour to help tell those stories.
