Salava Photography

I recently used Salava Photography to organise family portraits in time for a Christmas present for my parents. What a wonderful, positive experience it was to meet Rochelle and Jan. Rochelle was so efficient with providing a quote and flexible with making arrangements when I was feeling overwhelmed with getting so many family members to agree on a date and time! She was so lovely, friendly and passionate to correspond with prior to the day and I knew even before I received the photos that I had made the right choice. Jan and Rochelle were fantastic during the shoot and we all knew we were in very capable hands. Faster than expected turnaround of photos and amazed at how many shots we have to choose from. Cannot recommend more highly.

Rochelle & Jan we will be forever grateful for your beautiful photography at our wedding. Our special moments, emotions and love were captured perfectly. We would highly recommend Salava Photography, we had great communication from the moment we engaged their service, cost was reasonable. They met us at the location of our wedding to go through our vision and plan the day. Rochelle & Jan were a pleasure to work with, seamless in their work, they were early on our wedding day to set up. We had the most amazing day and now have so many beautiful photos.Thank you again Megan & Phil

We had Rochelle and Jan photograph our recent wedding and they were just wonderful. Many of our guests commented on what a great job they were doing and it was very clear how passionate they both are about their work. We received our photographs so quickly and with many more than we had expected. The pics are just beautiful. They did such a great job of gathering people for group shots as well as lots of fun candid shots. We couldn’t recommend more highly!Dayna and Jason5.3.22

I cannot recommend Rochelle and Jan more. The experience that I received was warm, friendly and professional! Five star from start to finish. They gave me some crucial tips in organising the big event and also getting there early to make sure everything went to plan. We had such a ball, if you’re thinking about photographers in Sydney. Please take my word for it. They are the best!

Rochelle and Jan recently photographed my proposal to my now fiancée Julee, and we're so happy that they did! Right from my initial enquiry (at very short notice I might add) Rochelle was very professional and enthusiastic in listening to my plan and making helpful suggestions to ensure this special moment would be captured beautifully. She is also very efficient and thorough in explaining their service and providing documentation.The proposal was at Barrenjoey Light House and quite early in the morning. I'm very appreciative of the effort Rochelle and Jan made to be at the location before we arrived. I also can't speak highly enough of the attention, guidance and care they both provided to ensure we got the best photos, and for their skill in making us both feel at ease during the photography session.The photographs Rochelle and Jan provided us are superb and it is very difficult for us to choose our favourites. It’s also fantastic they have different photography styles, and we now have a beautiful album of photos with great variety. We will cherish the photos in years to come and no doubt we’ll have great pride in showing them to our future children.

Jan and Rochelle are talented and professional photographers.Our wedding photos turned out spectacular.They look amazing, you made us look fantastic.Thank you for your hardwork and your guidance.

Rochelle is an absolutely amazing photographer, she called me within 2 hours and discussed what I was thinking. Made me feel validated - the other quotes I received got were just generic prices and inclusions via email. She listened to me and my needs and quoted a highly competitive price.We had SO MUCH FUN with Rochelle & Jan on the day of the shoot. We now have amazing photo's and memories we will cherish forever... and if we need a photographer for engagement/wedding in the future - I will be on the phone to her straight away!I'd give her more stars if possible! Thanks guys, We'll see you later in the year for a family shoot! xx
