Wedding & Elopement
Elope in an intimate ceremony in the Otway National Park or have an epic beach wedding in Apollo Bay, Lorne or Wye River.
I am located in Apollo Bay on The Great Ocean Road and on the edge of the Otway National Park, with some of the most breathtaking scenery for your wedding or elopement. Having grown up in the Otway’s I know all of the secret locations. From the majestic Redwoods to picturesque waterfalls or the pristine beaches along the Great Ocean Road. It is really one of the best places on earth to capture lifelong memories of you and your loved ones.
I am not just your Otway’s elopement & wedding photographer.
I am not just your Otway’s elopement and wedding photographer! I am your tour guide, planner, and new friend. I am here to help you every step of the way with planning assistance, location suggestions, vendor recommendations, and more. Not only will you be marrying your partner in an epic location in the Otway National Park, but you will have a life changing experience and I will help you every step of the way.
What to choose?
An elopement, an intimate ceremony or a wedding?
Every couple is different, and your idea of the perfect wedding day is unique to you and your partner. I love celebrating love in every way, whether it’s a surrounded by all your nearest and dearest with a large wedding - or a small intimate elopement with just a couple of witnesses, I’m here to help.
What is an elopement or intimate wedding?
It's an intentional wedding day that is primarily focused on who you are as a couple. Eloping does not mean secretly running off to the courthouse anymore; it's an opportunity to create a meaningful experience to begin your journey together as a couple. You may want to say your vows with your intimate family on a mountaintop or have a quiet day with just the two of you with your toes in the sand. It can literally be anything your heart desires! How cool is that?!
I know that the idea of organising an elopement can be intimidating but that’s where I come in! Whether you want to hike up along The Great Ocean Road, chase waterfalls in lush Eucalyptus rainforests, or discover the natural amphitheatre of The Californian Redwoods in Beech Forest. I’ll be here to help create an epic elopement experience that is unique to YOU.
I will also bring champagne, cocktails or beers and something to nibble on to keep you feeling full while we’re exploring!
I am not just an elopement and intimate wedding photographer. I’m here for larger celebrations too!
Although I adore elopements, I am also a lover of larger weddings. Truth be told, I just love capturing love. The love between the bride and groom, or bride and bride, or groom and groom. I am particularly fond of photographing organic and authentic interactions between you and your guests. I am a firm believer that they will be the photos that you cherish forever. Furthermore, I work closely with every couple to ensure that I do not miss a moment that is important to you. If spending more time with family and friends on your wedding day is more important than portraits - then we will make it quick and you can get back to celebrating your day how YOU want to. Or, alternatively, if you want beautiful images in the location where your location toon place an hour away, then we will make that happen!
Hey, I’m Harmony and I am a BOY MUM.
When you hire me, you are getting so much more than a photographer. You are getting someone who will listen to exactly what you want - because let’s face it - it is your day! I am simply there to capture the perfect memories for you.
When you choose me to document your day, whether it’s a family shoot or your wedding, I am there, completely present, with my heart open, observing everything. My style is documentary and unposed. I focus on love, authentic moments, and those tiny details that can go unnoticed or taken for granted. Let me capture you as you are, so that when you look back on your photos, you are truly able to relive all the emotions.
Family Photos in the Otway’s
Capturing all of life’s special moments is such as passion of mine. Alongside wedding and elopements, I also offer a variety of family sessions, including motherhood, maternity and newborn. Family is hectic, messy and at times pretty crazy, but that’s what makes each one special and absolutely perfect in their own way. I love to plan your perfect session with you! In the Otway’s it is possible to have photos that incorporate any landscape. You can have a beautiful beach session anywhere along the Great Ocean Road, or amongst the green rolling hills of Apollo Bay.
It is so important for me to capture those playful moments for you. We know times passes so quickly having those memories immortalised for generations to come, is something you never regret doing! However, sometime the thought of organising everyone can be a little scary; or the worry that your little ones won’t behave perfectly. I never want you to worry about that. Families aren’t polished and flawless, so I don't believe your family photos should show that. I want to capture how it feels to be a kid, the cuddles, the sand castles, the screaming with laughter through grass as tall as you are- those moments are the perfect ones.
These pictures shouldn’t be about stressing if your kids are behaving or standing still in a line, they should be of the special moments that you love about being a family, giant group hugs, peek-a-boo and piggy back rides. These are the memories you want to look back on in 20 years, not stiff smiles and boring formal poses.
Bring on the crazy, messy perfection of real family.
