About Hot Air Balloon Pre-Wedding

Love Journal is proud to be Melbourne's first photography studio to offer hot air balloon pre-wedding photography. Experience a magical sunrise flight over Melbourne's beautiful Yarra Valley, complete with a gourmet breakfast. This unique and unforgettable experience creates stunning aerial photographs that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Best Season to Shoot

All Year Round (Avoid Winter): Hot air balloon pre-wedding photography can be enjoyed throughout the year. However, we recommend avoiding winter months as temperatures can be very cold at altitude. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable conditions with beautiful scenery.

Best Time of Day

Early Morning (Sunrise): Hot air balloons fly at sunrise, so you need to arrive by 5:00 AM. This means makeup must start as early as 1:00 AM - please note this is a very demanding early start. The reward is breathtaking sunrise views over the Yarra Valley.

Photography Tips

For Brides: Minimalist wedding dresses work best for hot air balloon photography. The flowing fabrics create beautiful movement in the aerial shots.

For Grooms: A suit is recommended for this elegant experience.

We are the first pre-wedding photographer who photographed on a hot air balloon in Melbourne histroy. Experience a sunrise flight over Melbournes beautiful Yarra Valley including a gourmet breakfast. Please contact us for booking inquiry.
