We had Rick as our wedding photographer at Stones of the Yarra Valley and all I can say is WOW. He was so amazing to deal with from the very beginning. Immediately putting us at ease, we booked him during our first meeting as we knew he was right for us. Throughout the process he constantly kept in touch, was always quick to reply to emails and happy to accommodate anything we asked to make sure our day ran exactly as we wanted. He gave us heaps of tip, tricks and ideas and his knowledge of where to do the best shots etc was phenomenal. The morning after our wedding I woke up to a text message from him with a number of photos he had sent through - how amazing… and that night he sent through a compilation video as well as around 200 photos for us to download. We were so blown away by this and it made us feel so much more special. I am so so glad that we chose Rick as I don’t think any one else could have done a better job than he did. For anyone looking for a wedding photographer, don’t look any further! Rick will give you everything you want plus so much more. I can’t thank him enough for the beautiful way he captured our special day. He is honestly the best! Love Christopher and Steph xx

Rick was simply amazing as our wedding photographer. He kept us well informed about details ahead of the wedding and on the day everything ran so smoothly. We had a second photographer during the ceremony as well as a videographer and the whole package was so professionally done. Rick had myself, my bride and the guests feeling comfortable and took natural photos of us on our happiest day. He's taken many photos at the Stones of the Yarra Valley and we could tell he knew the best angles. He really brought out the best in us as well as the venue. We were both very happy to have him as our photographer and we've had many guests ask for his details. Couldn't ask for better!

Dearest Rick, I guess what I want and need so say is THANK YOU. Thank you SO much for capturing our day so perfectly. The photos are beautiful and we cannot wait to see the rest of them! You were definitely the photographer for us - your natural ability to guide us and make us smile and laugh on cue, as well as direct a whole bridal party was just so natural. You are truly special Rick Liston, and you have found your gift - capturing so many special moments in a second. Our family and friends also absolutely adored you - especially on the dance floor when you were getting your jive on! We all loved how you just immersed yourself into the action and took part. It made you like family. Again, thank you so much Rick. You're an amazing human and we're so lucky to have had you on board as our photographer. All our love, Jenn & Aaron xx

Rick is an incredible photographer and we are so happy we found him! Throughout the planning process, Rick was quick to respond to our queries and provided valuable advice (which we are glad we took!). Rick’s positive energy and enthusiasm helped alleviate the stress of wedding planning and made us even more excited for the big day! On our wedding day, Rick was punctual, professional, organised, super chilled and fun. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed straight away with his carefully selected tunes and he felt like an extension of our family and friends. The next day, he delivered a preview of our photos and a slideshow, and we were simply blown away by the stunning quality. When we received the full gallery, there were even more amazing shots that captured our day perfectly. Rick is so talented and creative, and his work speaks for itself! Thank you so much Rick for the beautiful photos, your advice, hard work and positive energy. We can’t recommend Rick enough!! James and Jelena

11/10 - Rick made our wedding day MAGICAL. He is such a stylish pro at what he does. He knows how to get those editorial shots everyone craves for but also captures those moments oh joy and laughter that no other photographer we looked at could do. He knew how to spark that joy and puts you at complete ease during the process. He takes time to know who you are and becomes part of the family the moment he starts taking photos. The pictures we got from our wedding day were above and beyond our expectations and he got them to us within 24 hrs of our wedding! I cannot recommend him highly enough - not only is he a true artist but he is a downright awesome human being which makes this process so much more enjoyable! Thank you Rick for giving us our fairytale! - Josh and Anthony.

If there was a 100/100 I would have put this regarding Rick! He is just amazing. Rick actually did not know this, but we actually based our wedding around him so he could be our photographer. I stumbled across Rick when I was looking up elopement packages and instantly fell in love with his photos and knew he was the right fit for us. I instantly wrote Rick an email and he replied so quickly with such enthusiasm and warmth, I knew he was our guy. From our very first email, leading up to our big day day Rick was responsive and to be honest, I had nothing I needed to follow up on as Rick was proactive in his emails, as if he knew what I was going to ask before I even did. Out of all the suppliers I felt 100% confident in Rick. He sent emails informing us of what needed to be done and even sent an email of some tips to think of before the big day which was a huge lifesaver. He was personable and absolutely placed his personality into his emails. On the day, Rick did not disappoint. When he arrived he was enthusiastic and just a part of our crew. He was like a silent ninja, taking snaps without you even noticing. In the end, Rick captured by far the most amazing photos I have ever seen. He honestly captured the day so perfectly. Every single guest commented on how amazing Rick was, how he was found capturing all these personable and beautiful moments throughout the day without you even realising it. I was tossing up about getting a video made on the day or not, however upon seeing the photos from Rick, I feel he told the story so perfectly through his photos that a video is not needed. Rick also made us feel so comfortable. Shane and I are nervous at the best of times when photos are being taken of us, but he brought out the model in us both! 😉 It must have been his boom box that he carries to play music and creates a fun atmosphere. Rick you have an amazing eye, amazing personality and a passion that just shines through the work you do. Every time we look at the photos, we are overwhelmed with emotion because you just captured every perfect moment. Rick, Shane and I honestly cannot thank you enough for capturing our day so beautifully. We are beyond happy!!!

Everything about Rick and the photos felt so effortless we could be completely ourselves! I’m obsessed with him and so grateful that he was there to capture some of our most special moments!! We LOVE you xx

Wow! Where do we start? We both felt nervous about looking into photographers; we were two people who didn't like having their photo taken, and we were fearful it would be awkward and uncomfortable. But from the moment we met Rick, we had the feeling that it was all going to be okay! His communication was outstanding. From settling our nerves, to holding bouquets and helping family members with their crutches, Rick really went above and beyond what we could have ever expected! Many of our guests commented on his professionalism and his relaxed and friendly vibe. We really enjoyed our special day and Rick contributed greatly to that, by taking us to secluded places and encouraging us to 'soak in the moment' while he stood back and snapped away. We could not be more excited to see the rest of our photos, as the highlight shots were absolutely incredible.. Rick has an amazing talent for taking beautiful pictures, and capturing the emotion within the moment. Thank you so much for your help, support and passion that you showed us. We are so glad that we found you, Rick! 😊 - Lauren & Tim

Where do we start. From the first communication and meeting we got such a great vibe from Rick and his sense of humour was a great match with ours. Seeing the quality of photos on his website we knew we were going to get amazing photos, and he didn’t disappoint!! On the day he created a fantastic, relaxed atmosphere and captured some incredibly natural and beautiful moments. We’ve never looked so good. We also appreciated receiving a preview slideshow and social media pack the very next morning.

As a wedding supplier, Rick is always an absolute dream to work alongside. He is very easy going and incredibly humble. He is respectful but at the same time knows how to enjoy himself. It is easy to see why his couples love him as he puts everyone at ease instantly. And to top it off - his photos are incredible. He manages to capture all the moments - including the candid moments without being noticed or unobtrusive.
