Now and Forever photography
is me, Matt Parashis.

I was born and raised in the Yarra Valley and spent my childhood playing Super Mario and kicking the footy in the street. I still live in the Yarra Valley and I love spending time photographing areas in and around my hometown.

I’m married to my wonderful wife Emily with whom I have two beautiful kids, Finn and Grace.

I am very passionate about photography and love working together to capture the special moments in life.

I do my best make being photographed a comfortable experience so that you have images to cherish for a lifetime. I love getting the chance to immerse myself in the romance and magic of a wedding and in doing so I will capture the story of the day in a relaxed, natural and fun way.

SIMPLE + NATURAL
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY.

I believe that the key to great wedding photos is being comfortable. Both you being comfortable with me as your photographer and me understanding what makes you smile, what makes you laugh, and what will get the best photos on your wedding day. When you are able to be yourself in front of the camera, we will get natural smiles, candid moments and everything in between to give you a great set of wedding photos.

I’ll make sure that by the time we get to your wedding day, we know each other well, I’ll be a part of your big day and not just a stranger that rocks up with 2 cameras. To do this, we will be in contact many times before your big day to plan all those little details in regards to your wedding. From timeframes to wedding photography locations we will have a plan. We’ll have a practice run – an engagement shoot that gets you and your partner comfortable with the process. We’ll also meet up in person as many times as you need (I love coffee) to make sure that your wedding day, is captured your way.
