OVERVIEW

We are known for our positive (seemingly endless) energy and relaxed and fun approach to posing our clients so that they feel at ease in front of the camera and focus on being themselves. In other words, we let the moments naturally unfold while also instructing you exactly what to do with your hands (any awkwardness melts away!)

We want your images and video to be the best visual representation of a special time in your lives and we work with you so that you can focus on enjoying your day without any stress.

We love being a photography/videography duo (as well as a real-life couple) because we don't step on each other's toes, and we understand (without even saying a word) what the other needs. It's like having two sets of eyes always looking out for the best shot!

We adore colour and embrace movement to make your photos vibrant, yet timeless.

We also shoot 35mm and medium format film as well, if it is something you're interested in then please advise.

FAQ

We love natural light and will use it as much as possible to achieve a soft, bright and airy look. We like to observe, anticipate and document the day as it unfolds, allowing for as many natural and candid moments as possible to take place. We strive for consistency in our editing and shooting style, giving each photograph a clean and timeless, yet soft and bright look. We shoot a mix of journalistic and cinematic documentary style images.

YES! Simon is the videographer and we can put together a photo + video package to suit your needs.

We both use professional grade camera bodies and lenses. Shyani shoots Canon, while Simon shoots Nikon - this gives us the best of both worlds and we love it!  

We also use our 4K drone to capture those epic moments that you just can't get on the ground.

We are based in Sydney and LOVE destination weddings both within Australia and around the world!

Each wedding is different and it will depend on whether you have booked one or two photographers. We do not impose a limit on the number of photos taken/delivered. You can expect approximately 50-100 edited high resolution images for every hour of coverage.

We will provide you with a sneak peek within a few days of the wedding and an online gallery within 2 -3 weeks. We will deliver your USB/Keepsake box with the final images within 4-6 weeks.

We do!  We offer our lovebirds sessions, which is a great way to get to know each other all while offering you amazing photos or videos to celebrate your engagement.

Absolutely, we know not every couple is alike and maybe a big wedding isn't your thing but you still want those stunning photos and or video to cherish for years to come, we have a package to suit you.

Shyani and Simon shot our wedding photos and videos and they did an amazing job. They captured both the fun and the emotion that was there that day. They're both super lovely people and we felt very relaxed in their skilled hands. The final wedding video blew us away - it's just phenomenal! Thank you for all your hard work and these beautiful memories that will last forever ❤️

Shyani & Simon just photographed our wedding @ the cove, Jervis Bay in November this year. Both Amy and myself were blown away by everything they did for us. They made sure to capture every single moment of our wedding day and the photos were absolutely amazing. Not only we’re the photos perfect, both of these guys were fantastic to deal with all throughout the lead up and the day of the wedding. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Simon and Shyani are a dream team! They carried us through all our many questions and gave us expert advice on anything we asked throughout the time before the day via emails and video calls. They were absolutely on point during our wedding preshoot and the wedding itself on the same day. Simon's quick eye for creative shots is lightning speed, it needs to be seen to be believed. Shyani, as well, not to be outdone, gets all other shots int he bag. Everyone, EVERYONE in our wedding commented on how proficient you guys worked. It was amazing to see in action. 15/10 would recommend. The preview shots that came after was quickly delivered too a day after! Thank you for all the memories you've captured. Forever indebted.

TLDR: Must have at your next event! It has been one year to the day since our wedding and we are still in awe of how perfect the photos turned out! Moments Photography captured every moment beautifully and gave us memories we will treasure forever. Simon and Shyani were the most thoughtful and kind people we have ever met! They talked with us about our wants and visions for our special day and went above and beyond. They listened to our concerns and made our day even more magical than we could have hoped! Moments Photography are even managed to work through the torrential rain that blessed our special day, taking photos and video that turned out better than we could have possibly imagined!! If you are looking for the perfect photographers/ videographers to capture your precious moments, stop looking and hire Moments Photography! We cannot thank you enough Simon

Is a wedding album worth it?

Not sure about this. Thinking we might just do our own wedding album online but then again, we're not very creative. And do all photographers do albums or would we be finding our own company for it?

Moments Photography & Film

Yes! We absolutely love the feel of the beautiful archival quality paper. Having your digital gallery is lovely but there's something about having something tangible to hold in your hands that is a nice reminder that your family will be able to enjoy these photos for generations to come. 

How much to a tip wedding photographer?

I'm American and my wedding is in Aus... I still want to tip. Advice?

Moments Photography & Film

Hello! 

It's not customary to tip in Australia, you will only be required to pay the price you have been quoted =) 

-Shyani (Moments Photography) 

Do photographers always have a second shooter?

Moments Photography & Film

Photographers do not always have a second shooter, especially if the wedding is relatively small. You will see the benefits of having a second shooter when you need extra coverage during a larger wedding - they can spend more time with the guests, for example while your primary photographer maximises their time with the bridal party. 

A lot of the time Simon (my partner) will be doing the videography for the wedding, while I focus solely on the photos and we've never had any issues not having a second shooter.
