Story

For couples who care more about having an incredible time than posing perfectly, and want their photos and film to feel honest, joyful and completely like them.

we’re Melissa and Blake

We’re the husband-and-wife team behind Pure Bliss Media, and we recently got married ourselves! After spending years experiencing weddings from behind the cameras, it was pretty special (and slightly strange) to finally be the ones in front of them.

We’ve worked side by side for so long that we can practically read each other’s minds, which is very helpful at weddings and occasionally annoying at home. We’ll guide you when you need it, hype you up during portraits and quietly blend into the background when the real moments are unfolding.

We’re the friendly faces in your corner, helping you feel at ease, keeping things fun and being the kind of friends you’ll be glad to have beside you throughout the day.

Most importantly, we want you to have an incredible day, enjoy every second and trust that all the moments that matter are being captured.

Think we might be your people?
Tell us a little about you two and what you’re planning. We can’t wait to hear all about it.

- Hannah

We’ve just gotten our wedding highlight video and          I can’t stop watching it.
It’s just beautiful and we have raw ceremony footage that I cried watching. On the day these guys were amazing and blended in so nicely!


OMG

hELLO!

TELL US ABOUT YOUR WEDDING

We      it

Most of our couples tell us the same thing before a shoot.
“I’m not very comfortable in front of the camera.”

Honestly, same. And we do this for a living.

We’ve just recently gotten married ourselves, so we get it. There are a lot of decisions, a lot of opinions, and a lot of businesses out there that don’t always feel transparent or personal.

Our job is simple. Show up prepared. Guide you when you need it. Make sure you feel looked after from start to finish.

No awkward guessing. No pressure to perform. No surprises later on.

You don’t need to know how to pose. You don’t need to be “photogenic.”



If you’re after photographers who feel more like people you trust than vendors, we might be a good fit.


You just need to be yourselves.

Alex

Thank you so much for sending these to us so quickly, and more importantly, for being the best photographers we could ever ask for. Having you both at our wedding meant the absolute world to us and we are so grateful for your skill, your enthusiasm, flexibility & amazing ideas. Mostly, though, we're just so thankful that you guys are genuinely the coolest and nicest people and that we were lucky enough to get you!

Ali & Jason

We cannot recommend Melissa and Blake enough. From the moment we met them, we felt completely comfortable and at ease, which made such a difference on our wedding day. Because they are a couple themselves, they worked so seamlessly together, everything felt natural, calm, and effortless.
The quality of both the photos and the video is absolutely incredible. We are honestly blown away every time we look at them. They captured our day so beautifully and authentically, and we will treasure these memories forever. Thank you for going above and beyond! We couldn’t have asked for a better team.

Testimonials

Tim

Blake and Mel are just the best and we wouldn't have had anyone else capture our day. They were the perfectly proactive but never once pushy, they immediately clued into the things that were important to us about the day and when the time came for it they gave some fun directions for the bridal party shots! They're also FANTASTIC pet photographers so can absolutely recommend them for Wedding Photos, Dog Photos or Both at the same time!

Testimonials

Emma

Highly recommend Pure Bliss Media to be your go to for your videography requirements.
Blake & Melissa were hands down flawless when it came to our wedding, their “can do” approach & attitude made both me & my husband feel completely at ease right from the first meeting.
Nothing was ever too much trouble for them & they were both such a vibe on our big day which kept all the wedding party engaged & smiling the whole time.
We couldn’t have asked for more 💚
Thankyou guys, we loved you so much

P.s - they are also very easy going and worked incredibly well with our other vendors x

Testimonials

Lianne & Shawn

Imagine having dream wedding pictures in your heads and then your photographers just absolutely nailing it. We don't have to because Pure Bliss Media took our dream, ran with it and delivered above and beyond what we hoped for!

Melissa and Blake were brilliant communicators both in the lead up to our wedding and on the day itself. They made us, our wedding party and our guests feel relaxed in front of the camera which resulted in fabulous photos. They seamlessly blended into our wedding guests as well so it never felt awkward to have them around.

We received sneak peaks very quickly and the rest of the album in a timely manner.

Honestly couldn't rate these guys highly enough!

Lighting is everything when it comes to stunning photos and videos.
Work with your photographer and videographer to schedule key moments, like your ceremony and couple’s portraits, during golden hour (the soft, warm light just before sunset).
This ensures your photos have that magical glow and helps avoid harsh midday shadows.

A pre-wedding catch-up with your photographer and videographer is essential.
It’s the perfect time to go over your schedule, highlight must-have shots, and share any special details.
This ensures your team knows exactly what’s important to you and lets you relax, knowing everything’s covered.

Your wedding day will fly by, so schedule a few moments to step away together.
This could be during sunset photos or a quick breather between events.
Not only is it a chance to soak it all in, but those private moments also make for some of the most intimate and heartfelt shots.

Rain, wind, or a flower girl meltdown, unexpected moments can make your day even more memorable.
Instead of stressing, lean into the fun of it.
Some of the most creative and joyful photos and videos happen when things don’t go quite as planned.
