Matthew Parkes
I’m Matthew — a Melbourne-based wedding photographer with a soft spot for the honest, unprompted moments that happen in between everything else. The quiet hand squeezes. The shaky exhale before “I do.” A parent realising their child isn’t a child anymore. I live for the kind of imagery that feels romantic now, and even more meaningful in ten years.

My work blends editorial style with the moments in between, all with real emotion. I’m obsessed with light — from fog-kissed mornings to candlelit receptions — and I bring a cinematic mindset shaped by years of shooting both photo and video. I’m fast on my feet, calm in chaos, and known to integrate into a wedding day like an old friend.
I’m drawn to aesthetics that feel timeless rather than trendy — rich shadows, true colour, movement, breath. I want you to remember how the day felt, not just how it looked.
I capture your story the way it deserves to be told: authentic, artful, and with just enough confidence and fun to keep everyone smiling.
If you’re a couple who values connection, wants to feel seen, and isn’t afraid of a little romance — we’ll get along beautifully.
Photographer, storyteller, and the guy your grandma ends up chatting to at the reception.
