24.01.2022 Congratulations to this beautiful couple on their wedding last weekend! Angie & Michael, I was so touched by your ceremony and the heartfelt speeches from your family and friends. We shared laughter and tears throughout the day, and I could feel the abundance of love emanating from all those around you. I'll always remember that feeling- a wonderful spiritual and physical connection you both had with each and every person there. Thank you so much for sharing it with me xo...xo Dress by Tania Olsen Designs IG @hairbyaprilchevell IG @makeupbymorse

23.01.2022 Thank you sooo much to Polka Dot Bride for featuring the stunning prewedding of Claudia and Marvin on your page! So gorgeous these two are, the tourists on the tram thought they were movie stars haha "I love the idea of venturing to your favourite places for your engagement photos, and for Claudia and Marvin, there seemed to be no better way to celebrate their next step than by exploring Victoria the pair taking to the National Gallery of Victoria, State Library, Abbots...ford Convent, Collingwood Childrens Farm, Olinda, Sun Theatre Yarraville, City Tram, the Grampians, St Kilda Pier and even Melbourne University. It was a three-day lovefest for these two as they explored with Rachel May Photography." w Jade Wong Makeup & Hair & Aldin Ortinez Wanna find out the crazy story of how they got together?

22.01.2022 From Claudia and Marvin's prewedding shoot back where it all began taken with my new old dream tilt shift lens HKMELB

22.01.2022 A stolen kiss in between vows <3 It started raining right in the middle of this perfect ceremony, but that only added to the magic of the day. I love how the groom's dad ran to the rescue with his umbrella and quite literally sheltered them from the storm

21.01.2022 The perfect summer elopement for these two Hong Kong sweethearts We started the day with a trip to Lavandula Swiss Italian Farm to catch the lavender fields in full bloom! Came back to Lake House for a lovely micro ceremony with some of their closest friends in Melbourne where Daphne had spent her uni days. The incredibly talented Renee & Jamie of Tobitobi serenaded us while we ate some of the best food ever in a beautiful pastel dream thanks to Lake House. Thank you so muc...h Daphne and Anthony for a day I'll never forget xx Brushed by @winnie_uniqueumakeovers Dresses by @berta @reemacra @nettabenshabu.official Venue by @lakehousedaylesford Music by @tobitobi.co [check out their cover of Moon River here: https://bit.ly/2LKO0CG] Film by @aldinortinez

Courtesy of Ee & Stephane Dressed by Eleusis Brushed by Yuri Yamamoto . This was possibly the most beautiful gown I've ever had the privilege of photographing! It magically changed colours with the light, jewel tones flashing between a deep ruby red and sapphire blue. We found ourselves on a quiet hilltop at Flinders while the sun set behind us and the wind created some stunning images I love so much! I can't wait to share them with you x See more

11.01.2022 "We met during university in Melbourne and this was the place where some of our best memories took place! We are shaped by our experiences, and the things we did and the people we met in this city will be forever in our hearts. We wanted natural, genuine and raw moments to document our time here." I had so much fun hanging out with and photographing our uni friends Claudia and Marvin last year! They managed to fit in a pretty ambitious shoot on their first visit from Hong Ko...ng in years- 3 whole days running all over town! I won't forget that stunning sunset in Olinda, chancing upon some awesome alpacas, and our hilarious attempts at starting a campfire in the Grampians! This road trip was never short of laughter and great moments that I know you will treasure forever <3 Thank you for your wonderful work Jade Wong Makeup & Hair and Aldin Ortinez!

07.01.2022 So happy this gorgeous shoot with Ee & Stephane is being featured in Polka Dot Bride today Thank you for your kind words PDB team! "Its no secret how much I love to tell a story and todays engagement photos by the talented Rachel May Photography tell the best kind. Ee and Stephane chose to capture the next stage of their relationship through photographs at all of their favourite places around Melbourne and Victoria. They headed to Queen Vic Markets, grabbed a coffee outsi...de Entrecôte, stood on clifftops, cosied up on the couch and drank wine in hidden bars. This was an engagement session that made the most of everything Melbourne has to offer and managed to reflect the personalities of its two lead stars at the very same time." Check it ouut!

06.01.2022 These cuties love a good rave! So for their engagement shoot, we shuffled down Hosier lane (; <3 Just look how happy they are dancing in the streets!

05.01.2022 I don't think I can ever fully comprehend the love my parents have for me and my sisters having never been a mother myself; but being around Sam and Amy helped unveil some of the magic behind this incredible universal bond. Congratulations to these two on welcoming their little cutie Axel just 1 week ago! I'm used to shooting love between 2, but wow. The love of family... I want more of this <3

04.01.2022 Gorgeous morning light at one of my favourite Melbourne cafes! What better way to spend a Sunday than with good coffee and better company ^^

02.01.2022 Now, I'm not going to deny that I was aware of your beauty. But the point is, this has nothing to do with your beauty. As I got to know you, I began to realise that beauty was the least of your qualities. I became fascinated by your goodness. I was drawn in by it. I didn't understand what was happening to me. And it was only when I began to feel actual, physical pain every time you left the room that it finally dawned on me: I was in love, for the first time in my life. I kn...ew it was hopeless, but that didn't matter to me. And it's not that I want to have you. All I want is to deserve you." . Pierre Choderlos de Laclos, Les Liaisons dangereuses . . So excited to attend the wedding of one of my oldest friends next weekend! Couldn't be happier you found your one true love. When you're together, I can almost see glitter fireworks shooting from your eyes haha can't wait to watch you walk down the aisle! XOXO See more
