Real wedding photography for couples who hate posing.
Based in Geelong, available anywhere.
Real wedding and family photography for people who want to feel relaxed, not posed. Based in Geelong, I photograph couples and families as they are, so the moments feel real because they are.
I work with couples and families who want honest photos without the fuss. No stiff posing. No awkward directions. Just relaxed sessions that feel like you.
Years from now, I want you to look back and remember exactly how it felt. The laughter. The way your people showed up. The moments you didn’t realise meant so much, until they did.
If that sounds like your kind of thing, I’d love to hear from you.
Relaxed, honest photography that feels like you, not like something you were told to do.
This isn’t just a job for me. It’s what I’m meant to be doing.
I’m not here for stiff poses or forced smiles. I’m here for the real stuff. The glances. The banter. The way you light up when no one’s watching.
I’ll guide things just enough to keep it relaxed, but never so much that it feels staged. What you get is honest, natural, and true to how the day really felt.
Your story isn’t one-size-fits-all, and the way I photograph it won’t be either.
Let’s make something real. Something worth holding onto.
I'm Mike Atchison

How I Do It
"Mike delivered above and beyond for our wedding. Mike captured the natural beauty of the day – they were just amazing photos! We wanted someone a little outgoing to help put us at ease on the day (as we don’t normally like being the center of attention). It was so easy to work with Mike – and we could not be happier with how the photos turned out. Would highly recommend his services!"
