HONOURING AUTHENTIC MOMENTS WITH A QUIRKY EDITORIAL EDGE.
Hello I’m Ro, owner of Hello Ro Photography, wanderess, chaser of silver linings, awkwardness magnet, LOVER of flannys & sunflowers…
I love chasing the sun, watching the moon, driving with the windows down and wearing flannys with everything. I prefer being barefoot over shoes, face to face over phone or text, vinyl over Spotify, camping over a fancy hotel, a wine by an open fire pit and good conversation over a movie, dandelions over any flower you could buy at a florist and spontaneity over routine... I currently live in my beautiful little cottage in East Gippsland after finally saying goodbye to my van Alfred Biedermeier...
I couldn’t live without my favourite people in the world and am often travelling all over just to see their faces, I spend most of my spare time climbing mountains and doing yoga (but these activities make me sound way fitter than I actually am haha). I couldn’t live without music, good food, essential oils and the ocean…
I’m a minimalist and collect memories and experiences rather than things, and after many years capturing my own memories whilst travelling all over the planet I was inspired to become a photographer and capture the moments others want to cherish. I love seeing a moment, a connection and being able to convey that in an image for someone to take with them and have forever...
Weddings, Wildflowers & Whatever’s Real
A few of the stories I’ve been lucky enough to witness.
My Story
I’ve been chasing honest moments with a camera for as long as I can remember — long before you could swipe through memories on a screen. Back when you dropped your film at the chemist and waited a week to see what turned out.
I studied photography the old-school way: darkrooms, fine art, fingers stained with fixer. After graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in print media, I spent years teaching photography and traveling the world, camera always in hand. In 2019, I made the leap into full-time wedding and lifestyle photography — and I haven’t looked back.
Since then, I’ve photographed hundreds of love stories across Australia and beyond. Big weddings, tiny elopements, backyard hugs, barefoot vows, and all the wild little in-between moments that no one plans — but that always turn out to be the best bits.
This work means the world to me — not just for the art, but for the connection. The trust. The invitation to witness something real and preserve it, forever.
I love making people feel comfortable in front of the camera, especially if you’re feeling a little awkward (trust me, I get it). My job is to help you relax, be yourself, and actually enjoy the moment. I’ll guide you when you need it, step back when you don’t, and make the whole thing feel more like hanging out than being photographed. You don’t need to know what to do, I’ve got it covered!
Lovebirds Packages
What’s more beautiful than real love, honestly documented?
Whether your wedding is big and wild or quiet and tender, my job is to help you feel at ease, have fun, and walk away with images that feel just like you.
I don’t believe in stiff poses or fake moments. The way I shoot is natural, warm, and mostly candid — the little glances, the chaos, the quiet bits, the “I didn’t know you caught that” kind of magic. Whatever your day looks like, I’ll be right there with you (barefoot if needed), helping things feel relaxed and unrushed — so you can actually enjoy it all.

From My Camera Roll
Glimpses of love, laughter, Lace & linen — straight from the feed.
Lifestyle Packages
From vow renewals to boozy birthday shenanigans, red carpet arrivals to quiet mornings with your newborn — I love capturing the moments that matter most. The big ones, the small ones, the blink-and-it’s-gone kind.
Wherever we shoot, it’s always about the experience. I’ll bring the speaker, the camera, and a calm energy that helps you relax into it all — whether we’re climbing mountains, chasing waterfalls, or just soaking up the sun.
These sessions are honest, mostly candid, and totally you. No stiff poses. No weird smiles. Just real connection, gorgeous light, and a few belly laughs along the way.
You don’t have to perform. You don’t even have to know what to wear. I’ve got you covered — from outfits and locations to helping you feel completely at ease.
Just bring yourself (and maybe your BAE, your babies, or your besties). I’ll handle the rest.

Bel
We chose Hello Ro for our engagement and wedding photos - 12/10!! Easily one of the best decisions we made! She is an angel. So very easy going and professional. Ro made us feel so at ease (for two people who hate having their photo taken this would have been a challenge) and it honestly felt like just hanging out with a bestie. The quality of the photos and edits blew us away, as well as her amazingly fast turnaround time! All of our guests at the wedding remarked on how much of a pleasure she was to have around. Do yourself a favour and book Ro!! Xo
Jake
We were lucky enough to have Ro as our photographer for both our wedding and engagement shoot. She is so easy to get along with, gives amazing directions and makes the entire experience feel natural and effortless. Her photographs are, of course, exceptional as well! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ro to anyone that will listen.
Katelyn
I couldn’t be happier with the pictures Ro took for us! 100% recommend speaking with Ro about your wedding.
Before, during and after the wedding Ro’s communication was clear, concise and timely. I could tell that Ro was well practiced and asked all the right questions.
On the day, my partner and I wanted someone who would fit in with our vibe (and encourage us as we are both very awkward in front of the camera). Ro worked tirelessly and with a grin at all times. Ro was helpful and coached us out of our shy, awkward selves with ease.
I couldn’t say better things!
PS the turn around time for the photos was amazing. Less than 10 days after the wedding we received our entire album!
Charlotte
The only thing disappointing is that I didn’t book Ro for the whole day. Ro’s style fit perfectly with ours, not only her photography style but her personality, she made the whole process enjoyable and our wedding photos are incredible. Thank you Ro for perfect service and an even more perfect finished product.
Alison
Ro recently photographed our wedding and she did an incredible job. Throughout the whole process, including leading up to the wedding, Ro was fantastic to deal with. She was always quick to respond to any queries we had and was generous with her time when discussing what we wanted on the day. Ro was also a really calming presence on the day - she was fun, energetic, friendly and, most importantly for a wedding, flexible! We were a bit later than scheduled to leave for the ceremony and Ro took it in her stride. This made me feel much more relaxed. After the wedding, Ro sent us some sneak peek photos the next day! We also received our entire gallery within a couple of weeks of the big day. The photos are stunning and reflect the fun and relaxed energy Ro brings. If you’re in need of a photographer, I highly recommend Ro!
Ilona
Ro's professionalism and dedication are unparalleled. Her photos are stunning and she captured the essence of our wedding perfectly. The whole bridal party was immediately at ease with Ro and her directions helped us get past our initial awkwardness! Ro is a beautiful, genuine human who is very easy to get along with. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone getting married!
