Five things I’d buy AGAIN and AGAIN as a photographer that are NOT cameras or lenses. 😇

A few favourites from Holly + Zach’s gorgeous newborn session. 🤍

Yes, we can absolutely host your newborn session in a beautiful studio if you’d prefer. I know just how busy and overwhelming this stage of life can be, and if an in-home session doesn’t feel right for you, that’s absolutely no barrier to creating beautiful, natural photos that still feel warm, cosy, and full of connection.

Dana & Damon brought together all the colour, tradition and energy of a beautiful Croatian wedding day 🇭🇷✨ from the excitement of the morning festivities to their heartfelt nuptials at the Croatian Catholic Centre. Their evening was an unforgettable celebration that had the dance floor absolutely packed from the very first song.
This carousel is only a tiny glimpse into a day that was overflowing with laughter, music, family, dancing and the kind of atmosphere you wish you could bottle up (and we did).
What an honour it was to document every moment. 🤍

The waiting season.
For Rach and Kierin it looks like golden evenings in their paddocks, surrounded by the life they’ve built together, their horses, and the little one they’re yet to meet.
These are the stories I never want to forget. ❤️‍🔥 . .

Oli and the most perfect little lips 🤍 One question many clients ask is “when is the best time for newborn photos?” Truthfully, there is no right or wrong. Every stage has its own kind of magic, and I know first hand that the postpartum window is not always the smoothest. I try to avoid pressuring anyone into something that feels too soon.
If you’re drawn to those super snuggly, sleepy images, with wrapped moments and close up details, that sweet spot tends to be around 7 to 14 days. I especially love that 10 to 12 day window. They’re still beautifully curled up, nice and settled, and we can really lean into those macro-ready moments.
For me personally in my post-partum window, 7 days felt a little too soon. Around 10 days felt much more doable. We had established feeding, found a bit of rhythm, and the idea of showering and inviting a photographer in felt realistic again.
From around 2 weeks onward, they do start waking up a little more. Which is also beautiful in its own way, just a slightly different feel. They are still tiny, fresh little humans, and we can absolutely create a full newborn gallery at this stage. It might look a little less wrapped and a little more awake, but just as meaningful.
Alas, wherever you land in that window, we will make something beautiful from it 🤍
