Ruth & Lindsay's Pre Wedding shoot - Melbourne Wedding Photography

Some of you may already know that I'm a big fan of pre or post wedding shoots.

When Ruth and Lindsay first told me that they wanted to shoot their portraits before their wedding something inside me lit up. Here I was, not needing to suggest the idea to them at all. They were already on the same page from the get go.

There's a few reasons why I recommend to my clients that want a wedding portrait session to shoot it on a day other than the wedding. I have found that on the day, couples just want to spend time with their guests. Having to leave the party for a photo session can take away from what the day is all about - celebrating love with family and friends.

By leaving the portrait session for another day we were able to take our time without the stress of the wedding day itself in the back of our minds or being on a strict timeline. We were able to have fun with the locations, really enjoy the process and I think it shows in the final images.

Ruth and Lindsay coordinated their makeup and hair trials with the day of our shoot so they looked the part and I think the images that we ended up with is a perfect example of the benefits of doing this.

I'll leave the photos from their awesome wedding for another post but in the meantime, here are some photo's from their pre-wedding shoot.

And to Ruth and Lindsay, I had an AMAZING time photographing you both, from our first meeting, the days could not pass fast enough.
