About Still Muse Photography
Still Muse Photography is run by Mel, a wedding photographer with more than 17 years of experience who works from a studio inside Big Boom Gallery in Newtown. Her approach is documentary and editorial: rather than staging every frame, she records the day as it unfolds and keeps an eye out for the small, emotional moments between the formal ones. Couples meet Mel first in person at the studio or over a video call, then receive a wedding guide and help with planning their timeline. On the day she works quietly among guests, covering the preparations, ceremony, family groups and portraits, and staying on into the reception for as long as the package allows. A good starting point is around four hours, while six or more hours takes in the start of the reception. For couples who want moving pictures too, Mel shoots hybrid photo and video with a second shooter at no added cost. The result is a highlights film of five minutes or more, a one-minute reel to share, full audio of the ceremony and speeches, and the raw footage files. Every photography package includes a studio couple shoot, high-resolution and web-sized images without watermarks, a private online gallery with a print store, and a USB and print box delivered after the final gallery, which arrives within three to four weeks. Fine-art albums and wall prints can be added.
