When it comes to capturing those beautiful moments during a Melbourne couple’s photoshoot, I firmly believe that timing is everything! Many couples may wonder why I often suggest a 90-minute photo session. But trust my experience – this is just enough to ease into the shoot, allow your magic to flourish and for me to translate it into cinematic artistry.
Why 90 Minutes Is The Sweet Spot?
If you want a romantic photoshoot in Melbourne that will portray everything you have imagined for your special moments, you need to focus on timing. And as I mentioned, for me, 90 minutes is just the perfect amount of time! Why? It is long enough to ease into the session, and also to genuinely enjoy and soak in those emotions without any overwhelm. You will have time to enjoy each other’s company while I capture those authentic, candid moments that tell your unique story.
You may wonder whether 90 minutes will work for you; perhaps you think you need more time to let go and relax. While each Melbourne couple's photoshoot differs, I can confidently say this duration works for everyone!
What Is Included in The 90-Minute Experience of Couples Photography in Melbourne?
First we begin with a pre-shoot consultation. This is when we tap into what makes you and your partner perfect for each other, helping me tailor the 90-minute couples session to reflect your unique personalities.
Worried about what to wear? That is taken care of because I will also provide a Styling Guide to ensure you feel photo-ready and confident. As a Melbourne engagement photographer, I know how couples can feel uncomfortable when they believe they are not properly prepared for their session.
When it comes to the backdrop, I suggest a meaningful or cinematic location that resonates with you both. During the session, you will receive 35 beautifully edited high-resolution images that depict majestic cinematic couple’s photography. This amount is just right – enough for you to cherish, share, and frame, but not too much that it feels like pressure. I focus on capturing genuine, unstaged moments rather than instructing you to pose, which creates an intimate and relaxed experience.
Is This Right for You?
You might be asking, "Is this right for us?" If you are a couple looking for beautiful, meaningful photos without the pressure of a full-day shoot, then absolutely! This experience is perfect for proposals, anniversaries, or simply capturing the essence of your relationship. In short, if you want a relaxed couple’s shoot, this is the ideal option!
Plus, it is ideal for those busy couples who may be new to the photography scene. This means you can make your photo session feel more like a fun date than a chore.
If you need more opinions, this is how one couple has experienced these 90 minute sessions:
"We’re honestly so grateful we chose xhliaw studio for our couples session. From the very first consultation, she was incredibly professional—thoughtful, organised, and clearly experienced. But the magic really happened during the shoot. It didn’t feel like a typical photoshoot at all… it felt like we were just hanging out with a friend who happened to have a camera. She made us feel completely at ease, gently guiding us while letting our real connection shine through. The photos? Absolutely stunning. So cinematic and authentic—they captured 'us' in the most beautiful way." - M & M
So, if you want a Melbourne couple’s photoshoot that is authentic and ensnares your essence into bespoke imagery, I can help you create what you have envisioned! Let’s create those timeless memories together!
