INSPIRATION
LIES WITHIN
Hey Welcome!
I’m the photographer behind FI Photography and a Melbourne dad who understands how quickly family life changes.
I’ve been photographing people since 2010, but becoming a parent changed what I notice through the camera. It made me pay closer attention to the details that are easy to overlook while you’re living them: the small hand reaching for yours, the toddler who never stops moving, the way siblings make each other laugh and the quiet comfort children find in their parents.
My family sessions are relaxed, gently guided and designed around real interaction. Your children do not need to sit still or smile on command. You do not need to know how to pose. I create enough direction to help everyone feel comfortable, then leave space for your family’s personality to come through.
The aim is not to make your family look perfect. It is to create photographs that feel honest, personal and unmistakably yours.
Get in touch and let’s make something beautiful together.
The Wedding Collection
As a photographic storyteller, my approach is all about capturing the perfect moment, not about capturing the perfect picture. It is making the emotional connection – capturing the fleeting moments in-between the instants that are often the very heart of your wedding. I have always believed that you cannot stage or fake genuine emotional moments, they just happen – often without warning- and you either get them or you don’t.
So I am always looking for the smiles, the kisses, the tears, the expressions, the hugs, the real genuine moments. With my many years of experience in capturing special moments, I’m fine tuned to anticipating when a moment is about to happen.
It would be an absolute honour if I can be your wedding storyteller.
The calming touch of the one you love and the electrifying force that binds you together;
that is when you know you’re right where you’re supposed to be.
The Family Collection
Family is where my heart is - I am passionate and find so much joy capturing families across Melbourne. With such diversity here in Melbourne there is always a new story to tell when it comes to you. Every family is unique, what excites me with these type of photoshoots is that it is completely unpredictable. Children are wild and free in these shoots and thats the way I love it - completely candid and genuine. For me, that is how it is supposed to be - telling the real story with complete transparency.
Let me capture your beautiful family with my family photography session and I promise that this is something you will not regret at all. (100% fun guaranteed)

LOVING WORDS
I just want to take the time to write a review for this fantastic photographer who went above and beyond for our engagement and wedding photos.
Michael is not only a very talented photographer, but he is a great person to deal with making our experience so much memorable. He is such a creative person with photos that we could never imagine. I cannot speak more highly of Michael and would recommend him to all my family and friends. Well done again Michael for making our wedding experience so much more than we could have expected.
