LGBTQ+ Wedding Photographer Melbourne

Love is love. Full stop.

Whether you're planning a huge party in a Collingwood warehouse, a tiny elopement in a Fitzroy laneway, a backyard knees-up with your celebrant dressed in Drag, or something so wonderfully niche that your relatives still don't fully understand it, I'm already obsessed.

I'm Anna, the photographer behind Lulu & Lime, and I photograph LGBTQ+ weddings across Melbourne for couples who want photos that feel like them.

Not a Pinterest version of them. Not a wedding industry version of them. Just them.

The loud bits. The quiet bits. The emotional bits. The slightly chaotic bits.

All of it.

No Assumptions.
No Bullshit.
No Cookie-Cutter Weddings.

Let's be honest.
A lot of the wedding industry still assumes every wedding looks the same.

One dress. One suit. One aisle. One way of doing things.
Nah - your wedding gets to look however the hell you want it to look.

Matching outfits? Love it.
No wedding party? Great.
Two dresses? Fabulous.
Two suits? Excellent.

A ceremony led by your dog? Honestly, I hope so.

My job isn't to squeeze you into a template. It's to capture your day as it actually happened.

Wedding Photos for Humans Who Think They're Awkward

Almost every couple who enquires says some version of:
"We're awkward."
"We don't know what to do."
"We hate having our photo taken."
Perfect.
You're exactly my type.
You do not need to know how to pose.
You do not need to practise your smile.
You do not need to become an influencer for the day.
I'll guide you when you need it, make terrible jokes when required, and help you forget the camera is even there.
Before long you'll be too busy laughing, crying, snogging and celebrating to care what the camera is do

LGBTQ+ Weddings Across Melbourne

Some of my favourite weddings have completely ignored the rulebook.

Melbourne is full of couples creating celebrations that actually reflect who they are, and that's exactly how it should be.

From colourful city weddings and warehouse parties to intimate ceremonies, garden gatherings and wildly joyful dance floors, there is no single way to get married.

And thank goodness for that.

The best weddings aren't the ones that follow tradition perfectly.

They're the ones that feel unmistakably, unapologetically yours.

A Safe Space Shouldn't Be a Selling Point

But unfortunately, here we are.

So let's make this crystal clear.

I photograph weddings for couples of all genders, identities and backgrounds.

I respect your pronouns.
I won't make assumptions about your relationship.
I won't force you into outdated wedding traditions.
And I will absolutely lose my mind over your outfits - especially your shoes - I’m ALL about the shoes!!!

You deserve to feel safe, celebrated and completely yourself on your wedding day.

That's not a bonus feature.

That's the bare minimum.

Words of Love

“We cannot thank Anna of Lulu and Lime enough!

Her warm supportive, easy going presence combined with her extraordinary photographic skills makes her incredible at her role.

She captured natural in the moment shots, in a way that we don’t even know she was taking photos! Anna is an absolute delight and beautiful presence - and we couldn’t of wished to have a more genuine and caring person to be with us on our special day.

We highly recommend Anna!”
