Behind the Scenes: A Day in the Life of a Perth Wedding Photographer

Being a Perth wedding photographer is more than just taking pictures—it’s about capturing the emotions, details, and unforgettable moments that couples cherish forever. Every love story is different, and so is every photography session. Some days, I’m photographing a romantic pre-wedding shoot, where couples get to celebrate their love before the big day. Other days, I’m fully immersed in the energy of a wedding day, capturing everything from morning preparations to sunset magic. So, what does my day look like? Well, it depends! A Day in My Life: Pre-Wedding Photoshoot A pre-wedding shoot is a relaxed, fun, and creative session that allows couples to get comfortable in front of the camera before their wedding. It’s also a great way to capture engagement photos or create stunning images for save-the-dates. 3:00 PM – Meeting the Couple & Planning the Shoot Unlike a wedding day, a pre-wedding shoot has a slower, more intimate pace. I usually meet the couple beforehand to go over their vision. Do they want beachside romance at Cottesloe Beach, a dramatic Perth Hills sunset, or a chic city vibe in Elizabeth Quay? We also discuss outfit changes, props (some couples bring champagne or a picnic setup!), and the overall feel they want in their photos. 4:00 PM – The Photoshoot Begins We start in a scenic location, where I guide the couple into natural interactions—walking hand in hand, sharing a laugh, stealing a quiet moment together. These sessions are about authenticity rather than stiff poses. Some of my favorite Perth pre-wedding shoot spots include: Kings Park Overlooking the city skyline, perfect for golden-hour romance. Valley Swan Valley Vineyards Rustic charm with rolling hills and golden fields. Cottesloe Beach Sunset reflections over the waves = pure magic. "One of my favorite pre-wedding shoots was a couple dancing barefoot in the sand at sunset—no posing, just love and laughter." 5:30 PM – The Golden Hour Glow Sunset is where the real magic happens. Perth’s west-facing coastline gives us some of the best sunset backdrops in Australia. This is when I capture dreamy, golden-lit portraits that feel straight out of a fairytale. 6:30 PM – Wrapping Up & A Final Creative Shot Before we finish, I love getting one last creative shot—whether it’s a silhouette against the sunset or a fun, unexpected moment. Then, I back up the photos immediately because these moments are irreplaceable. After editing, couples receive a stunning gallery that tells their love story before the wedding day. Why Have a Pre-Wedding Shoot? Get comfortable in front of the camera. Have professional images for invitations/save-the-dates. Capture your love in a relaxed, intimate setting. A Day in My Life: Wedding Photography Wedding days are a whirlwind of emotions, energy, and beautiful chaos. As a wedding photographer in Perth, my job is to blend into the background while capturing every heartfelt moment. 8:00 AM – Prepping for the Big Day Weddings move fast, so I start my day early with a double-shot coffee and a final check of my gear—multiple cameras, extra batteries, and memory cards. I also review the timeline and coordinate with the couple or planner to ensure everything flows smoothly. Whether it's a grand ballroom wedding or an intimate elopement, preparation is key! 10:00 AM – Getting Ready Moments I arrive at the getting-ready locations to capture the excitement. The bride laughing with her bridesmaids, the groom fixing his tie, the small but meaningful details like the wedding dress, rings, and handwritten vows. One of my favorite moments? The bride opening a letter from her groom. Pure emotions! 12:00 PM – The Ceremony: Bridal Bliss Western Australia has some of the most breathtaking wedding venues, from vineyards in Swan Valley to beachside ceremonies in Fremantle. I arrive early to capture the atmosphere—the floral arrangements, the ceremony setup, and guests settling in. Then, the music starts, and all eyes turn to the bride. The groom’s reaction? Always priceless. The vows under the WA sun? Pure romance. The first kiss? An unforgettable moment. No matter how many weddings I shoot, these moments never lose their magic. 2:30 PM – Family & Group Photos These portraits are the ones that get framed, printed, and cherished for generations. I keep it fun and efficient so guests can enjoy the celebrations. For big weddings, I move quickly through the must-have shots. For elopements, it’s all about capturing intimate moments. "I always remind couples—hug your parents a little longer, laugh with your friends, be in the moment. These are the memories that matter most." 4:00 PM – Romantic Couple Portraits The newlywed session is all about natural interactions—strolling hand-in-hand, laughing together, sharing a quiet moment. I guide couples while keeping it fun and 5:30 PM – Sunset Magic Perth’s sunsets are legendary, and I always encourage couples to set aside time for golden-hour portraits. The soft, dreamy light makes for some of the most breathtaking wedding photos. Some of my favorite sunset locations include: Cottesloe Beach The ocean waves, soft light, and salty breeze. Swan Valley Vineyards Rolling hills bathed in golden hues. Kings Park A mix of nature and twinkling city lights. 7:00 PM – Backing Up & Editing Begins While the couple enjoys their first night as newlyweds, my work continues. I back up every single photo—twice—because these are once-in-a-lifetime memories. Then, the editing process begins. My goal? Deliver a wedding gallery that’s authentic, timeless, and uniquely "you."

Here’s a detailed guide to make the most of your visit. Best Times to Visit The festival is open every day from 9 am until 5 pm, with the last entry at 3:30 pm. Tulip blooms last longest with cool and moist weather. To see the flowers at their peak, visit earlier in the season or check for recent rainfall updates. Avoid visiting on very hot days as tulips can wilt quickly in heat. Follow Araluen Botanic Park’s Instagram or Facebook accounts to get up-to-date photos showing bloom status. Ticket Information Tickets vary by day, making weekdays a more economical choice: Weekdays Adults $30, Seniors and Concessions $20, Teens (13-17) $20, Children under 12 free with an adult.

Booking tickets online in advance is recommended, particularly on weekends. Getting There Araluen Botanic Park lies about 39 kilometers southeast of Perth CBD, approx. a 30-minute drive via Brookton Highway. There is free parking on the park grounds but it is limited during high visitor days—arrive early to secure a spot. Public transport to the park involves multiple bus changes and a long walk or taxi ride once you get close. This makes it less practical for those with limited time. Driving is the most direct and flexible option, especially for families or groups. Consider carpooling with friends or joining an organized tour to reduce travel hassle. What to Bring Water bottles to stay hydrated, especially on warmer days. Sunscreen and a wide-brimmed hat for sun protection, as much of the park is exposed. Comfortable walking shoes suitable for uneven paths and garden trails. A picnic blanket and food if you wish to enjoy a meal on the grass or designated BBQ areas. Lightweight rain gear if rain is forecast since the event is outdoors. Avoid bringing pets and alcohol, as they are not permitted. Smoking is banned within the park.

Formal garden areas around the central lawn, ideal for relaxing and photographs. Natural bushland sections featuring native plants and wildlife, perfect for peaceful walks. A children’s playground where young visitors can burn off energy safely. Birdwatching opportunities as the park is home to many native species.

The Roundhouse Café is a convenient spot for casual coffee, cakes, and light bites. Picnic tables and BBQ facilities are available if you prefer to bring your own food and enjoy an outdoor meal. For those who want to explore local dining off-site, the small town of Roleystone nearby has a handful of cafes offering Australian and European style menus, just a short drive from the park. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What are the must-see attractions during the Tulip Festival? The highlight is the extensive, colorful tulip beds with numerous varieties arranged in beautiful patterns. Visitors should also explore the manicured garden beds, adjacent bushland trails with native fauna, and the children’s playground area. 2. How can I find the most affordable transportation options to Araluen? Public transport offers the lowest direct cost but requires multiple bus changes and walking or taxi rides, which can be inconvenient. Driving is more direct but adds fuel and parking costs. Carpooling or joining an organized tour can save money and reduce hassle. 3. What should I pack for visiting Araluen Botanic Park during the festival? Bring water, sunscreen, a sun hat, and comfortable shoes. Pack snacks or a picnic if you want to dine outdoors. Pets, alcohol, and smoking are not allowed, so leave these items behind. 4.

She Holds It All Together with Grace, Laughter, and Love

She Holds It All Together with Grace, Laughter, and Love

There’s something quiet and powerful about a mother’s love. It doesn’t shout; it shows up — day in and day out. That’s exactly what we witnessed when Samantha Rowney stepped in front of our lens this past Mother’s Day. With her son on one side, her daughter on the other, and Perth’s golden light surrounding them, we saw not just a family — but the heart that holds it all together. This wasn’t just a photoshoot. It was a celebration of motherhood, captured honestly, with no forced smiles and no rigid poses — just real connection, real joy, and the kind of moments that pass too quickly unless someone stops to freeze them in time. A Mother’s Day Photoshoot That Felt Like Home Samantha’s session was one of those rare days that felt effortless. Set against a familiar Perth backdrop, the shoot unfolded like a quiet Sunday morning — warm, unhurried, full of love in the small moments. Her children didn’t need direction. They simply gravitated toward her, laughing, hugging, teasing — everything you’d expect from a close-knit trio. And Samantha? She radiated that unique blend of calm and chaos only mothers truly understand. She laughed with them. She steadied them. She watched them in that way only a mum can — half pride, half wonder. This is what we believe Mother’s Day photography should be: honest, intimate, and a little bit magical. Why These Moments Matter Every year, Mother’s Day comes and goes. A card, a bouquet, maybe breakfast in bed. But what if you could give — or receive — something that lives on far beyond that Sunday morning? A photo that says, “This was us. This is how they looked at me. This is how we loved.” Our Mother’s Day photoshoots in Perth are designed around this exact idea. It’s not just about the perfect outfit or the right location. It’s about documenting the truth of motherhood — the snuggles, the whispers, the laughter, the looks that don’t need words. Because these moments don’t last forever. But a photograph can make them feel like they do. Photography Rooted in Perth, Inspired by You At Letthe Lightin Photography, we specialise in capturing real-life beauty. Whether it’s a Mother’s Day session, a family portrait, or a quiet moment between parent and child, our focus is always the same: storytelling through light and connection. Samantha’s shoot is a reminder of why we do what we do. Based in Perth, Western Australia, we’re proud to offer family and portrait photography that goes beyond the frame — giving families memories they can feel, not just see. If you're looking for a way to honour the love in your life — be it for Mother’s Day, a birthday, or just because — our team is here to create something special, just for you.
