DO YOU SUPPLY RAW FILES?

I don't, sorry. I find the editing process just as important as the shooting and both combined are the end result I'll be proud to pass on to you. I take my time working through each individual image and would feel like a baker selling dough without having actually baked the bread if I simply handed over RAW files!

HOW DO WE GET THE MOST OUT OF YOU?

The most important aspect of our relationship will be authentic communication! Your being able to ask for and express what ever it is that you are wanting from me will ensure great results. There is no conversation off limits!

OVERVIEW

My commitment is that all couples get the amazing photos they deserve from their most special day. There is only one wedding day and you must make the best decision for yourself, do not leave it to chance! Choose someone who has demonstrated that they can deliver images that you will love and choose someone that you connect with, a great relationship with them will allow the results you want.

For me personally, I am an unabashed photography tragic, it gives my life life.
And there can be no greater occasion than that of a wedding to provide an opportunity for the creative photographer in me to capture the very best of people, when only love is present...

My promise is that your special occasion is epic and professional.

FAQ

I'M NOT REALLY SURE HOW MUCH COVERAGE I'LL NEED AS YET?

No problem at all.
You'll be welcome to adjust your coverage amount at any time after making your booking, even much closer to your big day as your timeline slowly falls into place more and more.

HOW WILL WE GET OUR IMAGES?

You will get a sneak peak within 48 hours and all LowRES delivered via an online album within a month. You will also recieve the HighRES images on a USB in the mail.

WE ARE REALLY CAMERA SHY AND HATE POSING. WILL THAT BE A PROBLEM?

Not at all. Most of us feel that way. And I promise that after the first half hour you won't even notice my camera anymore.
Most of the day I'll be invisible and when required I'll give you a little bit of direction so you don't feel lost. What I am good at is having my couples feel completely relaxed and be themselves.

HOW LONG SHOULD WE LEAVE FOR PORTRAITS?

Of course every wedding has different circumstances but a rule of thumb is to allow a minimum of an hour for the Bride & Groom shots.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME FOR PORTRAITS?

I will make sure we get the most out of what we're dealt with on the day, but there are a few things you may want to consider if photography is a very important aspect for you. If you are getting married outdoors around lunch time on a bright sunny day, there may be harsh shadows and very contrasty colours. Looking for full coverage shade is always an option in these types of situations. Soft colours and light occur more naturally in the evening.
A photographer's favourite time of day is the hour before sunset. If you can wing it to spend some alone time with your partner then, even just for 10 minutes to catch a breather from the party, it's usually worth it. And don't worry about bad weather. A grey sky will be a beautifully moody backdrop. We can always grab some umbrellas to fend off the few drops of rain if you're keen.

Sally’s work was beyond words, she put in so much time and effort in to perfecting all the photos we wanted. Sally never said no to anything, we spent 3 days with Sally from start to finish. Sally has captured other family sessions for us so having her as our wedding photographer was something we knew we needed. Everyone remembered Sal for the way she handled everything and polite she was with family photos.

Sally was great and worked in really well with what we wanted and liked. She has a great natural style of photo and her commitment to great photos the day before and after the wedding were a standout. Thanks Sally for a job well done

Sally provided us with stunning photos of our wedding day and we have so many to choose from! She is a really bubbly and energetic person to have around, however at the same time she was almost invisible as you did not feel her presence during the ceremony. Our after the ceremony shots were fun and she made it easy for us to be photographed. She also gave you a feeling of confidence with her professional approach and you just knew that once you contracted Sally M Photographics this was one area of the wedding that you no longer needed to think about. I cannot recommend Sally highly enough.

Does the photographer drive themselves to the locations?

Would the photographer come with us or drive themselves?

Sally M Photography

Hello! What a great question! You are obviously doing the thinking which will make a huge difference on the day!
It totally depends on the situation and just what you are wanting from your photographer.

I've had couples request that I travel with them between locations and some that request that I do not. I always ensure that I am independent and on time, be that with my own wheels/Uber/public transport. There are always options.

But in a nutshell, yes your photographer is responsible for their own transport. And the day is all about you so request away!!
Have fun with your planning :)

How much time should we spend taking photo's?

Sally M Photography

What a great question! And I acknowledge you for asking it as it is SO very important and can be overlooked in the preparation for the day and that always ends in stress and disappointment! Your day is way too important to allow that to happen!

For your Bride & Groom shots, allow an hour and another hour for the Bridal party (that does not include travel time) and just how you do that can look many ways...it really depends on what you want, whether you do a first look, how many locations etcetera...

I have couples express their concern that it is too long but I promise you will NEVER regret investing the time in your photos, you will love them.

And the rest of the time is for the photographer to get creative and capture the story as it unfolds, you don't have to be concerned about that.

Have an amazing time planning your day, it is the best!!

Warmly,

Sally

Looking for someone to do a post-wedding shoot in country Vic?

We will already be married so there will be less of everything else and more photo time! The shoot will be fully styled with flowers, and everything. Happy to pay luxury prices as we want a hi quality outcome. Looking at a venue in the moira area, but it's amazing, visually speaking. Looking for someone super creative to create us the luxury bohemian look we are after. If this sounds good to you, let me know!

Sally M Photography

Ooh this sounds rather fabulous! Given I am a bush wedding tragic, this is SOO up my alley! I would be delighted to apply my creativity and have a marvellous time with you and your man :)
I have travelled many, many miles to shoot weddings in the bush so have no problem with the location. And I know how gorgeous country Victoria is so it would be a complete pleasure! And it sure sounds like you would be bloody awesome to work with, what more could I want?
Let me know if you would like to know more...

Warmest regards from Sally
