‘I can’t love more on my wedding photography in Yarra valley’ Chole texted me a message when she had a quick look at her amazing wedding sneak peek photos and tagged me on social media.
5 minutes later, Chole shared her Yarra Valley wedding photos to her family and friends around the world.
I’m giving the Yarra Valley such a high praise, not only because I’m a Yarra Valley local wedding photographer, but also my wife, Chole and myself got married at the Yarra valley in 2020. During our wedding planning, we almost visited all top 10 wedding venues in Yarra Valley.
Like most of the couples, we had no clue on where to get married at the very beginning. However, Chole reminded me which wedding locations in Victoria is my favourite?
‘Yarra Valley’, I give her a short answer without a second thought.
‘Why?’ Chole asked me.
Firstly, I’m a local Yarra Valley wedding photographer, I have lots of knowledge and experiences about choosing the right wedding location to suit our wedding style, though I also take stunning wedding photography at Dandenong range, Mornington peninsula and Geelong, however the cosy and rustic wedding vibe in Yarra valley gives Chole and me the best resonation.
Nevertheless, Chole loves local Yarra Valley fresh meat and wine and I love its picturesque view of the vineyard and mountains.
At this stage, Chloe and myself get the same direction, we’ll select one wedding venues in Yarra Valley. The next step is to find which specific wedding venues in Yarra valley we would select.
Chole suggested: ‘why not show me some wedding photography in Yarra Valley you have taken in the past?’
‘Bingo! ‘I smiled.
