Candid, Heartfelt Wedding Photography Across Regional Victoria

Hi, I'm Emma — a Victorian wedding photographer with over 20 years of experience capturing weddings across Melbourne, Ballarat, the Mornington Peninsula and beyond. I believe your photos should look and feel completely like you — your personalities, your story, told exactly as it is. I'm warm, down to earth and genuinely passionate about making you feel relaxed and comfortable on your wedding day, because the most beautiful photos happen when you forget the camera is even there.

The bride is in a white wedding dress, holding a large pink and red flower bouquet, and the groom, dressed in a light-colored vest and pants with dark boots, is leaning forward with a flower near his nose. Both are smiling and laughing.

What Couples Say…

Lucas and Sophie

Emma was the perfect edition to the most special day. She made us both feel some comfortable and natural on our wedding day. We felt we could do our photos at our own pace and capture what we wanted without any pressure. Emma gave us wonderful suggestions for shots but let us enjoy the day with our guest and she blended in naturally, capturing all the emotion and joy of the day. On top of her being such a lovely person, the photos we have to keep are stunning and exactly what we were hoping for.

Emma was by far the best choice for a photographer for our wedding at Black Cat Truffles, she went above and beyond and captured some really irreplaceable memories of our special day with our loved ones. Highly recommend this service if you are currently looking for a photographer. Great personality, managed to be everywhere all at once, had a laugh with everyone, and got 100's of photos!

Tamara and Anders

We had the absolute pleasure of having Kandi Lane Photography capture our wedding in November last year at Corowa Distillery, and we honestly couldn't be happier. From the very beginning, she was so easy to work with; she understood that we wanted to keep everything really simple and just focus on capturing the natural, genuine moments of the day. She nailed it. Not only did she work within the time frame we had in mind, but she also made the whole experience feel effortless. Nothing felt forced or staged, it was all so natural, and that truly came through in the photos. When we received the final images, we were blown away. Every photo was beautiful. She caught all the emotion, the laughter, the love, and everything in between. We'll cherish them forever. If you're looking for a photographer who truly "gets it" and can turn your memories into timeless keepsakes, we can't recommend her enough. She's amazing!
