Initially the plan was a Mother and Daughter photo session wearing special dresses with very significant meaning purchased on a very memorable shopping trip…then we thought the boys could join in as well. Well, sometimes works runs later and things are unavoidable which meant Joel was unable to meet us at the beach…Elissa was…
This is the third year I have photographed this family who is dear to my heart. As they arrived, I opened their car door and told them I will be devasted if they are ever not looking forward to seeing me, as much as I am them. They hid it well if they were already…
A year ago, I was photographing Brandi as she awaited the arrival of Sofia. One year on, I had the beautiful experience of photographing the abundance of love between these cousins and sisters. It was the perfect opportunity to get these family photos, as Jaime’s family visited as they travel around Australia. Raine, Jaylah and…
As I walked across the road ready for the family photo shoot, I was warmly met in the carport by young Mabel and her Daddy. Mabel immediately made me feel like I was a friend in their family and most welcomed. I then met Teddy the Pomeranian, who has to have the highest jump-to-leg ratio…
This was the third time I had travelled to Magnetic Island this year. It was also the third time I had done so to capture families that had travelled to be together for their Mum’s birthday. I love this for many reasons. Obviously, it is a given that Magnetic Island is a stunning location for…
I was absolutely delighted to photograph this gorgeous family after spending time with them and their newborns in the NICU weeks earlier. At the hospital, I was in awe of Josh and Caitlin’s confidence with their newborn baby boys. Simultaneously, they oozed a relaxed and joyful manner with their three-year-old daughter Addy. It’s clear to…
It would have been so easy to cancel this family session, but we didn’t… It was the first day of sunshine after the massive floods in Townsville. Even those whose homes were unaffected felt as though they were still affected. Our hearts broke for our town and the thousands who had lost everything. Life felt…
Newborn photography is an honour. And I was so incredibly honoured that during their week in Townsville, Nate and Ebony would make space for a session with me. Honoured that they had chosen me to document this time. A time which is an unbelievably special stage of their lives with their six-week-old baby girl, Aaliyah….
I find blogging my sessions so hard. In particular, to find words that express my emotions and thoughts that do justice to all the incredible people I photograph. Let’s just say, I hope my photos express my heart better than any blog I ever write. This family photography session has me stumped. Where do I…
I can now see how short the time actually is for the opportunities to “all” be together as a family. We think it will no longer be our “normal” when our kids move out of home, but, it comes much earlier than that…things start to consume our weekends…sports, part-time jobs, girlfriends, boyfriends, friends and those…
