Nostalgia.
These are the good old days
I will always remember pulling out photo albums from the big bookcase in the hallway of my parents house. Black and white photos of relatives I never knew, my parents in 70’s outfits, retro wallpaper, beach holidays before I existed, those awkward posed wedding photos from the 80s (you know the ones I'm talking about). And then there was us- babies, toddlers, children. A few snapshots of our world as it was developed from film. Photos of people we’ve loved and been loved by. Homes once lived in and familiar faces in a time before we knew them
Photography isn’t only a way of capturing our own memories, it is a gift to our children and grandchildren in the future. A chance to glimpse into a world they were part of before their memories began. To see us as we are now, to know us as the people we were before them
Memories fade, photographs only gather value as time goes on
Visual stories - experience is for you.
I am passionate about authentic, timeless photography. I adore documenting you in a truthful & artistic way through the perfect balance of intention & fun using a blend of documentary, gently guided & cinematic techniques. I pride myself on creating a space in which you can be yourself, so we can capture not just photos, but feelings. My hope is that you can look back at your photos in years to come and really feel the moment through the photo, that you will love them because you loved being yourself. My approach is laid back and intentional, romanticising your current season in an artful way. Getting to know your unique story and curating your session is an important part of my work - prior to our session I will send you a detailed questionnaire and client guide, we can chat and get to know each other over email or on the phone. By the time we meet for our session we will feel like old friends! The session is then lead by you and what feels authentic. If you feel nervous about having your photo taken- that's totally normal. I can guide you until you feel natural, I got you! Lets capture some moments that you will cherish for a lifetime

FAMILY PHOTOSTORIES
My family photo sessions are just as much about the experience as they are the photos. Let's go on an adventure in your favourite place. No forced poses, just your children in their element, exploring nature and time spent together being you. I also adore documenting you at home - snuggles on a well-worn sofa or dancing to your favourite song in the kitchen with a cuppa. Let's capture you in a space filled with love and memories. Wherever it may be, I want you to feel free to be your authentic selves. I want to give you family photographs that go beyond the superficial- beautiful, truthful art that paints a picture of that perfect little world to which only you have the keys

For mothers.
MOTHERHOOD & MATERNITY
After our oldest daughter was born motherhood became my definition and photography became my expression. When I realised I could do it for myself I wanted to do it for others. It is such a joy to give other mothers the gift of beautiful, emotive art that puts them in the frame with their children and gives expression to the love that has come to define them. My maternity and motherhood photography isn’t about hiding stretch marks or pausing the session to breastfeed. It’s about capturing all the real moments, empowering you, lifting you up and celebrating your motherhood in all its true beauty. You are amazing!

NEWBORN & FRESH 48
The sweet, hazy newborn stage is so very fleeting. My in-home newborn photo sessions are designed to be as relaxing & natural as possible. Take away the stress of packing a thousand things and rushing out to the studio. You don’t even need to tidy the house, get dressed up or worry about putting on a show for me. I want to capture your perfect little world just as it is in the space that is special to you. I’ll give you some gentle guidance, move things around if I need to and work quietly to create beautiful, soulful images that will be become treasured art. If you prefer I can visit you in the hospital or at home to capture the delicious moments of baby's first couple of days

| FROM $300|
please get in touch with me to discuss a package that would be suitable for you
Lets chat!
First things first - as you may have discovered I'm not your traditional family photographer and also not the cheapest you'll find. I am forever growing as an artist and put my whole heart and soul into what I love to do. This is my life purpose. This is an investment and one that comes with many years of experience working with babies, children and, of course families to create meaningful imagery. I'm in it to create soulful, lifetime memories of the season that you'd like to remember. If you feel like we'd be a good match then please get in touch via my contact form
Deposit
Once you have reached out we can lock in your preferred session and date, all I require is a $100 deposit and you're all booked in
Details
Once we have locked in your session with a deposit we can start planning together . Curating your session is a super important part of the process and allows us to capture those raw, real moments. We can chat about location, wardrobe (I'm more than happy to help, if you'd like guidance) plus we can also throw around some ideas about things that you might like to capture within your session, which are unique to you and your family's story... such as what your typical Saturday might look like?
Your moments
You have your session with me either at home or at a location you loive. My aim is for a low-stress and enjoyable session, sipping on coffee or your choice of beverage, listening to music like on those slow Sundays, bare feet and relaxed feels!
Your gallery
After your session is complete your images will follow within 2-6 wks depending on my current workload. You receive your online gallery, a selection of colour and BW imagery, which you'll need to download within six weeks (please backup your images for future-proofing)
Printing for future nostalgia
Don't let your precious memories live on a hard drive. Reach out to me for options for printing fine art prints and gorgeously curated photo albums
