23.01.2022 Riding through life, these two pulled over to renew their wedding vows and then back on the road to continue the rest of the ride. Words are so powerful and to shout to the world again their love for one another says it all. . . #mehayeshayesphotography

21.01.2022 When I was asked to photograph Mel and Gregs wedding, my heart was filled with joy and a sense of honour. This amazing couple are so well loved by so many family & friends and within the local community. I’ve known Mel for years and know that these two are some of the most generous, selfless and fun loving people anyone could ever come across. So my aim for their wedding yesterday was to put the spotlight on them. We did and they shone brighter than a diamond! ... Stay tuned for the sneak peek album coming soon...

20.01.2022 Wedding days come and go all so quick, in a blur but the focus is on the love, the marriage, not just the party. 2020 has been interesting year, weddings have been different but the love is stronger than ever. I had another wedding booked tonight and somehow I think the next year ahead will be fully packed with love and happy moments! The calendar is starting to look full again and good vibes are out there and eager to celebrate! . . .#melhayesphotography #wedding #2020wedding #2021wedding #blackandwhitephotography #live #goodtimesahed #hilsdistrict #sydneyweddingphotographer #weddingdays #familyandeventphotographer
20.01.2022 This months theme is all about Poppies! We did sunflowers last month and stay tuned for next month! Loving this opportunity to photograph gorgeous flowers for the The Sydney flower markets and florist around Sydney. It’s quite a lovely ad break in between weddings this year! I’m kinda enjoying this.
19.01.2022 Congratulations Lauren and Tristan on your magical wedding. You guys proved that Love, laughter, family and a place to call home is all you need in life. May your future be as beautiful as your wedding day. Much love, Mel X... Ps A huge thanks to David Atkinson Photography and Chloe Lynne videography.
18.01.2022 That moment when you walk through your front door, for the very first time, holding your own little bundle of treasure. Becoming your own little family, now where’s that instruction manual! . . . #melhayesphotography #familyphotographer #storytellingphotography #sydneyfamilyphotographer #hillsdistrictbusinessmums #northshoremums #northernbeachesmums #newbornphotographer #newbornsydney #newbornsydneyphotographer #welcomehome

17.01.2022 This gorgeous little one arrived just in time for Fathers Day 2020, he’s only 9 days old! With an older 4 legged big brother this family couldn’t get any more adorable! #fathersday2020
17.01.2022 This big sister is totally overwhelmed with joy bringing home her brand new, little brother in time for Christmas. It only seemed like yesterday we were photographing her newborn little toes in this frame. So special to capture all these moments for Kathleen and James from their engagement, wedding day and now with each bubba. I feel like I’m part of this family!

14.01.2022 Super PROUD of my Girl for taking on yet another wedding as videographer! She’s an absolute champ and I can’t express how proud I am of her. She’s only 16 and rockin it! Love you Chlo! I have a NEW Boss!
13.01.2022 These 30 minute mini sessions are a wonderful amount of time for young kids. Enough time to have some fun without getting overtired. It’s really important to me to create a fun experience for each family so that when they look at these photos in years to come, it’ll bring a smile to their face!
12.01.2022 I wanna be just like you! ... when we grow up. . . . #melhayesphotography #sydneyphotography #sydneyphotographers #sydneyweddings #sydneyweddingphotographers #hillsdistrictphotography #hillsdistrictsydney #hillsdistrictphotographer #weddingaustralia #weddingaustralia #hillsdistrictweddingphotographer #joy #weddingdancephotography @glenoriersl #glenorieweddingphotographer

11.01.2022 A family friendly Sunday, along one of Sydneys most gorgeous shorelines. I’m so in love with this family! Sarah is 35 weeks pregnant & absolutely championing this journey. Such a Moment in time.
10.01.2022 I had the honour of photographing this brand new family yesterday. Welcome to the world baby Ava... you’re such a champ and coping so well during Sydney’s heatwave. . . #melhayesphotography #sydneyphotographer
10.01.2022 Not much missed when you have David Atkinson , Chloe Hayes on film and I when we rock up to a wedding. Captured from all angles, including the mum of the bride! Lol! Recharging now for another beautiful wedding tomorrow!
10.01.2022 Thank you to all who supported my little business this year of 2020! So many special people I’ve met and you know who you are. I couldn’t choose a top 9 as there were too many special ones. Here’s 9 images I wanted to share to remind and hopefully inspire us all that the sun rose and the sun set, every single day this year, there were butterflies that landed on sunflowers , babies born and couples married. We do not live on an earth full of good times every day but these good... moments need to be treasured, to use to stretch into those moments that aren’t so good & that’s my purpose in taking photos. To help each other remember the good times that often fly by. Happy New Year everyone. Trust that you will treasure the small moments that in turn are our big moments at the end of the day. Sending lots of love as you all step out into 2021. . . . #melhayesphotography #sunrise #sunset #australia #australianmade @freemosunflowers @mrsmlangdon #moments #hillsdistrictmums #hillsdistrictbusinessmums #hillsdistrictphotographer #sydneyweddings #sydneyweddingphotographer #2020photography See more
09.01.2022 To the awesome Tim Bailey, I miss your weather reporting! You always made our dinner meal prep so much brighter! Thanks also for sharing two of my images on your big screens. After all these years, channel 10 will never be the same! Channel 10
09.01.2022 Well today it was my turn to play with these majestic creatures. We had eye to eye contact and I totally broke the rules with not capturing animals from behind... these guys were totally showing off their tails. The seagulls were swooping down to peck their skin. Life is fierce out there in the wild! I came back inside with wet socks but totally enjoyed this time.
09.01.2022 With school and preschool starting back, there’s not a better time to discuss with your P&C to book in a family photography mini session weekend. Mention this at your next meeting or share with someone who maybe going. It’s a fabulous way to fundraise for your school, with a percentage from each family booking going straight back to your school, for your kids plus you get some updated professional family photos at a special price for 2021! I’ve shaken this all up a bit & thi...s is better than ever! I have opened up weekends now available throughout the whole year so you can book in your preferred term and date, in time for gifts, for a special occasions ie: Mother’s Day Father’s Day and Christmas etc. These weekends always book out quickly. Message me, if you’d like me to send you out an info pack so you can discuss with your group. I aim to make these weekends fun and enjoyable for all families, in their 30 minutes they have with me and from an organization point of view, I aim to have it running smooth and make it as simply as possible. It really is a fantastic way to help your school, preschool or sporting group plus update your family photos at a special price. Please feel free to share this opportunity with your family and friends.
09.01.2022 My last wedding for the year brought me to tears, beautiful happy ones of course. I found this wedding one of those special ones that words can’t explain but the love was the beat to all the moments played. Congratulations Belinda and Matthew for a gorgeous wedding. Hope you enjoy this sneak peek. Feel free to share and enjoy.

04.01.2022 Having a wedding in 2020 is not an easy thing to arrange but love won yesterday and the sun followed these two all day! Congratulations Mel and Greg on your marriage. May your future be as postive and bright as you both are. A huge thank you to David amd Chloe for assisting me to capture this day for them. ... Part 2 comes in 2021!
04.01.2022 Such a great idea... This is Kirin, she arranged a surprise gift for her staff and partners, to have some beautiful couple photos while all dressed up, before their Christmas celebrations. Not many people organise their own couple photos, such a fab idea. One couple had been married for 33 years and another couple for only 9 months. They were so appreciative and we had so much fun doing this for them. Great idea and gift for them to treasure! What a boss! . . .#melhayesphotography @kirinkhatra #christmasspirit #sydneyphotographer #eventphotography #familyphotography #christmasphotoshoot
