5 lucky couples to get wedding photography from Melbourne's Lakshal Perera for only $500!

Yay for Australian sponsors! Melbourne brides, meet Lakshal Perera, aka Lucky, aka your perfect wedding photographer. For the last three years Lakshal has been based out of Brisbane, but now he wants to celebrate moving to Melbourne with an offer for all couples. And if YOU are lucky you may be one of the five couples to get our Lucky to shoot your wedding for only $500.

Oh yes, we like to hook our Aussie brides up. But first, I want to give you a reminder of where you've seen his work before…

Y'all might remember Lakshal from when we profiled this rockabilly wedding in Wollongong that featured both temporary and real tattoos and a fun portrait session in a thrift store that involved shark jaws. Since then, we've been smitten with Lucky.

Having recently gotten married in an offbeat ceremony himself, Lakshal totally knows what it's like to face the vendor rat race as an offbeat couple. That's probably why he's got such a great outlook on his business and weddings in general.

Here's what he has to say about his business and photography style:

My business is pretty simple, to be honest. I am laid back, relaxed and pretty much invisible on peoples' wedding day. I always know that the day isn't about me and I should be the least of the bride and groom's concerns!

I like to think of my work as fine art wedding photography! Yes, a bit pretentious perhaps but I love the idea that people will use their wedding photos as art around their house.

And you just might be one of the ones who gets to hang that very art up in your house with LUCKY'S LUCKY OFFBEAT OFFER:

• Here's what you get: Lakshal is offering to do five weddings for $500 (which is 81% off his normal price).
• Who can enter: He would prefer them to be based in or around Melbourne, however International clients are welcome to participate in the offer. (Although travel is NOT included in the $500.)
• How to enter: To be considered to be one of the five lucky clients, just contact Lakshal and tell him your wedding date, location, and explain how your wedding represents your relationship. He'll choose which couples will get hooked up based on the combination of your email entries and his schedule. So anyone has a chance as only as he's choosing three international/not in Melbourne weddings!
• Contest ends April 12, 2012.
