Melissa Parkin Photography Website: www.melissaparkin.com/blog. My camera has taken me to some wonderful places: Madagascar, Namibia, and all around South Africa and Asia.

For all photographic enquiries please do not contact me through Facebook but rather drop me an email at [email protected]. Each step along the way there are new friends to meet and new stories to tell. While studying Photojournalism at Rhodes University in South Africa, I discovered a passion for visual storytelling. I started to see the world differently through my camera, in a way that I ha

d never seen it before. After my studies, I grabbed every opportunity to travel and to take photographs. Photography has enabled me to meet people from all walks of life. It’s challenged me and made me take risks. It has opened my mind to endless possibilities. And that’s why I love what I do. My approach to wedding photography is documentary. A wedding day provides the perfect backdrop to a love story. As the wedding photographer, I get to meet two people who have their own story - a story that is like no other. All the elements are already there, waiting to unfold. I think the most beautiful images are taken candidly, as the day unfolds, allowing for genuine moments to be captured and held forever. My images show real emotions, real beauty and real love.

Alaire & Scott tied the knot in Canada (where Alaire is from) but wanted to celebrate with their Aussie friends back in Perth. After strolling the streets of Freo on a rainy day, they partied the night away with friends & family at the beautiful Guildhall Event Space.

Alex and Steph planned to marry at Cottesloe Civic Centre, a place very close to their hearts. They had lived in Cottesloe together for many years & it’s where over fish and chips that Alex proposed. But with thunderstorms predicted for their big day it was just not meant to be. Eventually we went with Backup Plan C, which turned out to be pretty spectacular. As the rain began to fall as Steph walked down the aisle I knew it didn’t matter, as the most important thing for her was that Alex was there smiling back at her. Steph & Alex you are two of the most genuine people I have ever met. Thank you for letting me capture this day for you & to your beautiful families for welcoming me with open arms. Happy honeymooning you two!! And a big shout out to Matthew & his team at Lamont's Bishops House for working a miracle.
