For Shilpa and Patrick, it started with a dating app, but it was years of phone calls, video chats and long-distance love that built the foundation for everything that followed. With Patrick living in the UK & Shilpa in Australia, it took some time before the pair could even meet, but when they did the rest was history!

BEHIND
the LENS
I'm Emma and I photograph weddings and elopements in Melbourne or wherever your love takes you.
I’ll capture your wedding day with the gentle direction of editorial style and the soul of documentary storytelling. What does that mean? It means I’ll guide you to get portraits that feel truly like you, and capture beautiful, candid moments and real emotions without you even knowing I’m there the rest of the wedding day. Trust me, I’ve got you!
What drives me is connection.
I’m inspired by people who feel deeply, those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments, and the poetry in quiet gestures. I’ve always believed great photography feels like slipping back into a memory, not just looking at a picture.
