I don’t want our shoot to be robotic and mechanical. The best shoots are fun, laid back, and easy going. The more organic and natural a shoot is, the more raw and genuine the shots will be.

Hi, I'm Nick

My inner introvert hates writing these little promotional pieces. I’d much prefer to hear your story, however simple or complex, than wax lyrical about my own. That said, I’ve learned a little over my years and travels and know that if I give a little bit of myself, I’m better equipped to capture all of you.

I want you to know that despite my meticulous methods of preparation, my shooting style is less regimented. I don’t want our shoot to be robotic and mechanical. The best shoots are fun, laid back, and easy going. The more organic and natural a shoot is, the more raw and genuine the shots will be. And those are some of the best shots!

Other shots, however, require more subtlety. For some, having a camera in your face on a day when you can feel very vulnerable is less than ideal. So rest assured, I’ll be on the move like a ninja to get the intimate moments and angles without getting all up in your face.

Deana & Pat | Acacia Ridge Wedding

We always wanted to get married at a winery, the moment we arrived at Acacia Ridge we both knew it was the one! We really didn’t have to do too much to it. We found a place that wasn’t too over the top, had an amazing scenery, a beautifully set up marquee and we knew it was a place we could have a really great party with our closest family and friends.

Rosie & Declan | Stones of the Yarra Valley Wedding

Our greatest loves of farmland and wineries is encapsulated in the rolling hills of the Yarra Valley and having two little children we needed a venue that ticked all the boxes. Gorgeous scenery, chapel, drinks and reception space all at the one venue, somewhere we could stay on sight and a team of people to make our day as relaxed and carefree as possible.

Keah & Bill | Geelong Farm Wedding

Just have fun with it and try to let the decisions you make around the day reflect your personalities as best you can. The day is about the two of you and the goal is to be married at the end of it all, so if that happens then that’s all that really matters.

Elle & Austin | Lancemore Lindenderry Wedding

The Mornington Peninsula is one of our favourite places to go and explore and relax and we have always enjoyed our time holidaying down there and we knew when we got engaged that we would want to get married somewhere around this location.

Jordie & Roy | New Zealand Adventure Session

A tranquil evening off the shore of Wanaka, New Zealand. This exciting little adventure session landed us at the secluded Stevensons Island where we had the entire place to ourselves. Jordie & Roy heated up a healthy warm drink and meandered around the pebble beach for a few fun pictures together - pure bliss!

Natalie & Luke | Mount Macedon Winery Wedding

A very sweet and intimate wedding day at the beautiful Mount Macedon Winery for two very special people, Natalie and Luke. These two wonderful specimens originally planned to exchange vows in France (with me as the overly excited third wheel) but COVID-19 had other plans for them. Turns out those other plans involved the purchase of their first home!

Kylie & Eric | The Wool Mill Wedding

I think it’s a blessing in disguise when the weather is a little wild and wet on a wedding day, it truly sets the mood and gives the photographs their own unique vibe. Take a look and see for yourself, this wedding was certainly one for the books.

Kind Words

'Georgia & Alvin'

"Nick Skinner. Goodness me. Words just don't even work right now. Alvin and I can't thank you enough. Truly, we are so eternally grateful that we picked you to capture our day. You were kind, funny, (kinda ninja-like, too...respect) and also an absolute WEAPON with a camera. Our photos are next level and we just adore them. We are SO grateful for your patience and flexibility with the whole lockdown COVID sitch - thank you for not giving up on us, and in fact giving us strength & positivity when we needed it. We love you Nick and to all those lucky couples out there looking for the perfect photographer, look no further, you found him. Much love.

"I don’t think any words will ever express how thankful we are that you were part of our big day. You made us feel instantly at ease from first booking right through to yesterday. You were such a pleasure to have around and truly felt like another one of our friends. The extra time and effort that you spent with us did not go unnoticed, and you had our guests commenting too. You made two awkward camera shy humans feel like they might actually be able to manage a good photo!!"

- Emily & David
'Kylie & Eric'

"Nick was amazing on our wedding day and made us feel so at ease, he was able to strike the perfect balance between creating a relaxed and laid back atmosphere yet still made sure that we were efficient in getting in all the locations and shots we wanted.

- Kylie & Eric
'Bryce & Elly'

"So in love with our shots! This talented guy truly and effortlessly captured what was an exact representation of our incredibly special day, and I’ll be forever grateful we can reminisce back on! Nick completely knew our style and love for candid and in-the-moment type of shots with moody and unique edits, not only did he bring the good vibes all day but genuinely seemed like he enjoyed himself and got amongst the wedding festivities and our party loving guests. Could not and will not recommend him enough! Thanks Nick for being the perfect unnoticeable third wheel, you were such a special and important part to our loved up day."

- Bryce & Elly
'Emily & Elliott'

"Having Nick photograph our wedding was absolutely the best decision for our day! His communication in the lead up was 10/10. He was always honest about what would work best and gave us direction on getting the most out of our photos. On the day, he was so calm & diligent about delivering on all our plans! I even had family & friends tell me how much they liked our photographer’s company on the day! And the final product just speaks for itself. We get compliment after compliment on the style and quality of our photos! A massive thanks Nick, for being a big part of how we remember our special day."

- Emily & Elliott
'Paul & Charlotte'

"Nick Skinner, one of Melbourne's best wedding photographers! We had this legend photograph our wedding last month and cannot recommend him enough! He captured all of the emotions of our big day so perfectly in a way we couldn't have even asked for. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, Nick is the one you want!"

- Paul & Charlotte
'Hannah & Spencer'

"We had the pleasure of working with Nick for our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner and wedding day, and we honestly couldn’t have had a better experience with a photographer. From the beginning, we knew we wanted to work with someone that was as much of a friend as they were a wedding vendor, so that we’d feel comfortable and have fun throughout the experience. Nick was just that and more! We are so happy that the stars aligned and we were able to find him. We couldn’t be happier with our photos- they captured the vibes of our special weekend perfectly without feeling too contrived or stuffy. We will treasure them forever!"

- Hannah & Spencer
'Amy & Blake'

"The weather for our wedding wasn’t ideal, but man did Nick make it look magical! He kept us smiling and calm all day, and we really didn’t notice him doing his thing unless we needed to. Our photos are real, candid and romantic. So thankful we had Nick capture our day!"

- Amy & Blake
