Crafting Perfection
Elevating Your Moments Through Editing
Wedding days can be unpredictable—rain, lighting challenges, or not catching that perfect sunset. But no stress! Whether the weather changes your outdoor plans or the timing doesn’t quite align with the golden hour, rest assured, your photos will still turn out beautifully. Through my expert editing process, I breathe life into every shot, making your memories look just as magical as you dreamed.
Maybe the lighting was a bit off, or you wanted a sunset that didn’t happen—no worries. My editing skills allow me to enhance your photos and bring out the vibrancy, warmth, and emotion of your special day, ensuring your love story is captured in its best light.
Perfecting Skin with Natural Retouching
No need to worry about imperfections either—my editing includes skin retouching that enhances your natural beauty without making it obvious. I smooth skin and remove blemishes while ensuring that the result is totally natural and true to life. Whether it’s softening harsh lighting on your skin or ensuring you look your best in every frame, I make sure you still look like you, just your most radiant self.
The Art of Editing: Before & After Transformations
Check out the transformations below, where you can see how I take a photo from its original form to a breathtaking, polished image. With my background in fashion photography, I know how to elevate every detail, ensuring your wedding photos are a blend of artistry and authenticity.
Custom Modifications Just for You
If you’re looking for any additional modifications, such as smoothing out a double chin, extra skin refinement, or other custom edits, I’ve got you covered. I can make subtle changes based on your preferences while keeping the final result true to life. You have full flexibility to request the tweaks that will make your photos feel perfect for you.

Can I customize a wedding or engagement package?

What is Hybrid Photo and Video Coverage?
Hybrid photo and video coverage combines the artistry of photography with the emotion-capturing power of videography. It offers couples the opportunity to witness their special day unfold in cinematic splendor, seamlessly transitioning between stills and moving frames to create a compelling narrative of their love story.
Why Choose Hybrid Photo and Video?
Choosing hybrid photo and video coverage offers the convenience of having one professional seamlessly capture both your wedding photos and video. This ensures consistent style and storytelling throughout, while also being more cost-effective than hiring separate teams. With a single person managing both, there’s a more cohesive vision, and fewer people at your event means a more intimate, unobtrusive experience.
Do you have a second shooter?
A second shooter is a great optional extra if you are wanting both partners’ preparations captured or if you are having a very large wedding. My second shooters are all chosen by myself for their sense of fun, similar candid style and passion. All images are edited by myself for continuity.
Do I travel?
Yes! I love to travel. I cover Brisbane, Gold Coast, and Sunshine Coast. There are travel fees depending on how far from Brisbane your wedding is, and I will always be upfront about any required accommodation.
How long after the wedding will we receive our photos, and how are they delivered?
You will receive your complete wedding gallery typically within 4 weeks after your wedding day. Your photos will be delivered through a private online gallery, where you can download high-resolution images and share them with your family and friends.
Do you offer engagement sessions, and is it included in your wedding package?
Yes, I offer engagement sessions, which can be included as part of your wedding package. The session is a wonderful way to get comfortable in front of the camera and have some beautiful pre-wedding memories captured.
Do you offer albums or prints, and what are your options for those?
Yes, I offer a variety of premium wedding albums and prints. You can choose from The Classic Elegance Album, The Luxe Heirloom Album, or The Modern Memory Box. Each option is fully customisable to fit your style and preferences. For more details, please visit the Albums section on my website.
Can we provide you with a list of specific shots we want?
Absolutely! I encourage you to provide a list of specific shots that are important to you, ensuring I capture all the moments that matter most on your special day.
How is payment structured, and what are your pricing options?
To secure your wedding date, we require a 25% retainer at the time of booking. The remaining balance can be paid in flexible installments, either monthly or spread over several payments leading up to the wedding day. We aim to make the payment process as smooth as possible and will work with you to create a plan that suits your needs.
I offer a range of packages for photography, hybrid coverage, and combo photo & video, all tailored to your preferences. Custom packages are also available. Please contact us for more details on pricing and payment options.

ABOUT ME
My journey started in fashion & model photography, and eventually, friends began getting married.They wanted something different—a mix of candid, artistic moments that allowed them to fully immerse in their special day. That’s where I found my passion: blending the raw beauty of each moment with an artistic touch.
I evolved into offering hybrid coverage at weddings – shooting photo + video at the same time and this is still one of my most popular packages.
If you’re looking for a photographer whose approach is candid, fun, and artistic – I’d love to chat.
Through the Lens of Love: Capturing Your Unforgettable Story
In every frame, I strive to capture not just images, but the heartfelt emotions, joy, and connections that make each wedding truly unique. From intimate moments during the ceremony to the energy on the dance floor, my goal is to reflect the love and personalities of each couple in my work.
Each wedding is a one-of-a-kind story, and I approach every shoot with that mindset. My photography goes beyond simply capturing events—I aim to create personalized visual narratives that celebrate the essence of your relationship.
I believe in the power of storytelling through photography, and wedding days are some of life's most precious stories to tell.
Behind the Lens: My Journey
I didn’t start out in wedding photography. My early career focused on fashion and model shoots, but when friends began asking me to photograph their weddings, I discovered my love for capturing love stories. I’ve spent over nine years refining my craft, and today I bring a wealth of experience and creativity to every wedding I document across Brisbane, Gold Coast, and Sunshine Coast.
Ben Monavari's Philosophy: Crafting Your Perfect Love Story
Storytelling at the Heart:
For me, wedding days aren’t just events to capture—they’re stories waiting to be told and cherished for a lifetime. Every image I take reflects not only the beauty of your day but also the emotions and connections that make it unique.
The Power of Photography:
I believe photography is more than just a way to document moments—it’s about preserving the fleeting memories that make your wedding day one of a kind. My goal is to ensure your love story lives on long after the day has passed.
Your Dream Wedding, Captured:
When you choose me as your photographer, you’re not just hiring someone to take pictures—you’re trusting a storyteller to preserve your most meaningful moments. By seamlessly blending photography and videography, I offer a comprehensive experience that captures every detail of your love story. That’s why more than 80% of couples choose me for both photography and videography.
Accolades and Affections
I’ve had the honor of being recognized as one of Australia’s top wedding photographers, with awards from WEDISSON and Wedding Diaries. But for me, the real reward is the connection I build with my clients and the trust they place in me to capture their most treasured memories.
Global Inspirations
My travels have played a significant role in shaping my artistic vision. From the vibrant landscapes of Queensland to the serene beauty of Antarctica, each destination has left an imprint on my work and inspires me to bring a sense of adventure to every shoot.
