We are so excited that you are interested in choosing Lia & Stu | Photographers to document your big day! We believe in real moments and capturing your connection. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.
We believe in images that are begging to be printed, placed in beautiful frames and hung on walls for years to come.
We started shooting weddings in Fiji back in 2011 after moving here from Hawaii. While trends, have come and gone, we still strive to capture timeless images that will never go out of style. Our hope is that the only thing that will give away the time period of your wedding is the styles of hair, clothing etc and not a trendy editing style. Our editing style is natural and classic. When we pick up our cameras, we strive to create beautiful and emotive images that tell a story and showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the stunning destination you've chosen for your wedding!

Finding Lia & Stu really was the best thing we did when we visited Fiji. They took us into the highlands for an adventurous & fun shoot and we knew we picked the right people to help us create memories on our wedding day. Fast forward 6 months to our wedding day and the results speak for themselves. Lia and Stu are incredible, the way they work together, they are kind and so much fun to be around and made our day so much more relaxing. We love our wedding photos and will cherish them forever, I find myself flipping through the album reminiscing on the best day. Highly recommend Lia & Stu hands down.
Incredible, Kind & fun!

Lia exceeded every expectation! This trip to Fiji was to celebrate our love and LIFE together for 30 years and counting. Lia did such a beautiful job of capturing the genuineness of the life we’ve built together, our personalities, and our gratitude for each other. Our age is showing with wrinkles that line our smiles and figures less youthful than we once had. But after 30 years…we know that LOVE is all the matters. I’m so glad we had these photos taken. Thank you Lia for capturing US perfectly. We will cherish these photos and the memories behind them forever! You truly have such a gift Lia! We are so thankful you shared it with us!
Exceeded Every Expectation!

Worth a million stars. We had the most incredible experience with our underwater photo shoot with Lia. She was incredibly patient and guided us during the shoot with so much ease. We had so much fun, and as a result have so many amazing photos! If you have any hesitation about having an underwater photo session with Lia & Stu, don’t hesitate. TRUST ME, it will be the best thing you will do in Fiji and the best investment. It will be an experience you will cherish and incredible photos to have. It will be so worth it.

We’re big believers that images aren’t meant to solely exist in a digital space. One day, most likely, Instagram will be gone, your phone will be replaced and images that you can physically hold in your hand will be the best way to remember those precious moments we capture.
Think about this fact: fifteen years ago, if we had delivered you digital images, they would have been on a CD. With how quickly technology changes, it would be such a hassle to try and access those photos. Even the online galleries we deliver will eventually fade away.
One of the best ways to make your wedding memories last is in an album. These high quality handcrafted albums come in a variety of linen & leather colours. These aren’t the same albums your parents' wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on a coffee table.
Handcrafted Albums
THE PERFECT WAY TO REMEMBER YOUR WEDDING DAY
After we deliver your gallery, we'll work with you to get your album design just right. This album will become an heirloom for your family.
Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day.
A Wedding album is included as part of your wedding collection. You can also order additional albums a la carte.

Unless you’re a model, being photographed probably feels a little awkward. That's why we've included a complimentary engagement session.
This gives us a chance to get together in a more casual setting before your big day, so you get to see how we work, and we get to know how to guide you best! It also gives you the chance to settle in and get comfortable in front of the camera.
While these sessions are great for save-the-dates,
we’ve taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding. Being a destination, it can be a bit tricky, but lets work together to get something scheduled.
If you are doing a hair & makeup trial, it's a great opportunity to book that the same day as our session if possible!
Engagement Sessions
Celebrating a season
* All of our collections include a complimentary engagement session.
** If travel is required for the session, there will be an added travel fee.
Whenever you would like! With Fiji being a destination spot, it's a bit tricky. If you are coming out to Fiji for a planning trip or just a getaway prior to your wedding, lets set up a time! If you'll only be here a few days before the wedding, please let us know your availability, so we can try and fit you in.

When should we schedule our engagement session?
q:
A travel fee is added to all locations not on the main island of Viti Levu (because they require boat transfers or flights). A travel fee will apply to locations further than an hour away by road. Fees vary depending on location so ask us for more details on your specific location.

Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need a signed contract and a 50% non-refundable deposit. We'll send the contract over! You'll be able to look over the details, sign electronically, and make the initial payment with your credit card. The second payment will automatically be charged to the same card on the date in the contract so you won't even have to think about it.

When do you charge travel fees?
The engagement session is complimentary and a gift to you. If you would like to skip the session or are unable to book it because of scheduling, that's okay. However, there isn't a price attached to it so the collection price will stay the same. If you can make it happen, we highly recommend it, plus it'll be fun!

Can we leave out the engagement session and lower the price of the collection?

The session will be in Nadi or the surrounding area. We can go anywhere you would like for the session, there may be a travel fee for certain locations.
