We were lucky enough to have Natasha Matthee as our wedding photographer this month in Melbourne.
Roddy and I planned our wedding from Perth therefore initially liaised with Natasha over the phone, we got along famously from the get go.
I was expecting just to meet Natasha on the day of our wedding however she suggested we meet personally a visit the locations in Melbourne where we’d like to have our wedding photos. Roddy and I met Natasha at the Royal Botanic Gardens and had a great time choosing locations to shoot yet more importantly had the opportunity to meet one and other. Natasha then made it her business to visit the two hotels and the beach prior to the wedding to ensure all was perfect for our special day .. this is service!
On the day of our wedding Natasha arrived at the hotel where Roddy and his groomsmen were getting ready. Roddy was very nervous yet after 1-2 hours of photo’s with Natasha he calmed down and was ready for the day.
Natasha then came to our hotel and made a conscious effort to introduce herself to all the ladies .. she took charge and managed to capture some amazing shots.
The Melbourne weather managed to hold out for us throughout the ceremony, Natasha then went to the effort of taking a group photo from a ladder in the garden to ensure the whole wedding party was included. Moments after the skies opened up and it started pouring .. everyone ran for cover and pulled out their umbrellas, Natasha embraced the moment with us and managed to get some great shots.
Natasha was always the first one to arrive at each location, her easy going, bubbly personality made our day (and getting a lot of photos) so much more enjoyable. The whole bridal party enjoyed Natasha’s energy .. thank you for doing such an amazing job!
If you are looking for a creative photographer with enthusiasm and a great personality to make your wedding day memorable, we highly recommend Natasha Matthee.
Jayde and Roddy Tahu
