HI! I’M EVAN! :) 👋
Here’s a refined version with those additions woven in naturally — keeps your tone but sharpens the impact:
I genuinely love making images 📸✨
— and I’ve been doing it for over 20 years.
Along the way, I’ve completed a Master of Arts in Photography 🎓 and built a practice that spans portraits, fashion, weddings, and events — with multiple solo exhibitions, front covers of magazines, and award recognition, including the CCP Salon (Best Fashion and print) and the City of Melbourne Award for Photography, with work held in the State Library, among others.
My work has taken me around the world — from photographing the Virgin Alternative Fashion Festival in Berlin at Berghain for Kevin Murphy, to documenting Burning Man, to shooting landscapes across Iceland on a Hasselblad — on film, of course.
More recently, I’ve also worked as a snowboarding photographer in Japan ❄️🏂, capturing the energy, movement, and culture of the mountains.
EFP Photography is all about capturing breathtaking moments — the kind you actually print, frame, and hang on your wall 🖼️❤️
Not hours of repetitive poses, but connection, atmosphere, and the feeling of being there.
It all comes back to a simple idea:
freeze the feeling 🎞️
The laughter, the quiet moments, the chaos, the love — all of it.
Whether it’s your wedding day, a milestone birthday, or a gathering with your favourite people, I’m tuned into the details — the quick glances, big laughs, and in-between moments that often get missed 👀✨
This isn’t just a service — it’s a collaboration 🤝
I work closely with you so the photos feel like you — not stiff or forced. Honest, relaxed, and full of life.
I may be considered a Master, but I don’t believe I’ve ever finished being a student — I’m always learning, refining, and pushing to make the work better with every shoot.
Have a look through the portfolio and see if it feels right 💛
If it does, I’d love to help tell your story.
lots of love :)
— Evan

FAQs
I hate being photographed! — will this be painful?
Not on my watch! 😏
Most people say this — and then end up loving the photos.
I keep things relaxed, chill, low-pressure, and actually enjoyable, just do you BO!
What makes EFP Photography different from other Melbourne photographers?

With a Master of Arts in Photography, award recognition including the CCP Salon, and international experience (Berlin, Japan, Iceland, Burning Man), the focus is always on:
Authentic moments
Real connection
Images that feel like you
Not stiff posing — just honest storytelling 🎞️
iv worked in high paced enviroments and absalutly love it!, the way to work in a fast pace is to be organised as heck :)
and pressure makes diamonds and it shows how seriously we value what were doing :)
What do you photograph?
Weddings, events, portraits, and fashion — anything people-focused, really.
If there’s energy, connection, or a story to tell, I’m in 📸✨
What’s your style?
Natural, relaxed, and real.
I’m not about stiff poses or making you stand in 10 different spots doing the same thing.
It’s all about capturing moments as they actually happen — the vibe, the energy, the in-between stuff 🎞️
Do you pose people or is it all candid?
Bit of both!
il find great locations and light
then guide you when needed (so you don’t feel awkward 😅), but mostly I’m watching for real moments and letting things unfold naturally.
dont over think it - keep it simple simon! :)
How far in advance should we book?
As early as possible — especially for weddings.
Busy Dates can book out months (sometimes 1-5 years) in advance.
For smaller shoots or events, feel free to reach out even last minute — if I’m free, I’ll make it work 💪
Do you travel?
Absolutely.
I’ve shot all over — from Berlin to Iceland to Japan ❄️🏂
Happy to travel for weddings, events, and projects.
How long does it take to receive photos?
Usually:
Sneak peeks within 24–72 hours (for events/weddings) ⚡
Full gallery within 2–4 weeks
I don’t drag it out — I know you want them asap.
Do you offer video as well?
Yes — I can provide simple video coverage or bring in a dedicated videographer for bigger jobs 🎥
How much does it cost?
It depends on the job — duration, location, and what you need.
As a guide:
Portraits from ~$450
Events from ~$600
Weddings from ~$1000
Reach out and I’ll give you a clear, no-BS quote.
How do we book?
Easy.
Send through your date, details, and what you’re after — and I’ll confirm availability and lock it in.
From there, I’ll guide you through the rest 🤝
Do you photograph LGBTQIA+ weddings in Melbourne?
Yes — absolutely 🌈
As a queer photographer based in Melbourne, I specialise in LGBTQIA+ weddings, events, and portraits, creating a safe, inclusive, and celebratory space for all couples and communities.
Can we customise a package?
100%.
Every event is different — I can tailor something that fits exactly what you need.
What happens if it rains on the day?
No stress! 🌧️
Is Melbourne! We Pivot! :P
-In secluded locations, I always have at least two clear Japanese umbrellas ready to go
Plus Rain often creates some of the most beautiful, atmospheric images.
I’ll adapt and make sure your photos still look incredible.
