Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne Wedding - Matt & Shuwen
“We couldn't have asked for a more talented photographer.
I have been following Jon's work on social media for a long time before our wedding as I liked the pictures that he took. However, having Jon as our photographer was so much more than we expected.
Not only did he capture the key moments at the wedding but more importantly the expressions of the moment. Looking at the pictures, we were transported back to not just the memory but the feeling of the moment. This was extremely special and meaningful for my husband and I.
He also has a keen eye for detail. This is a compliment that we have also received from our guests. He captured many things during the event that people would otherwise not notice, or ignore.
This, to us, was peak storytelling.
Leading up to the wedding, Jon was patient and prompt in responding to all our questions. His calm and easygoing demeanour right before and during the wedding gave us so much assurance and peace of mind.
In summary, good photographers can take nice pictures, but a truly talented photographer like Jon captures the story of the day alongside all its feelings and emotions.”
- Matt & Shuwen
A summer wedding at the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, filled with light, warmth, and genuine connection.
Matt and Shuwen moved through the gardens with ease — playful, grounded, completely at home with each other. Shaped by different places and cultures, yet rooted in the life they’ve built together here in Melbourne. A reminder that home isn’t always where you’re from, but who you’re with.
Family and friends travelled from all over the world, but the focus never shifted from what mattered most — two people choosing each other.
A day held together by laughter, presence, and a shared sense of home.
