If you’ve had a quote from me via email, you’ve likely heard this spiel that my new blog is focused around!

The post-shoot timeline looks a little different depending on why I’m taking photos for you (events or families or weddings etc!), so I’ve written a blog about what to expect AFTER our shoot, in terms of delivery, timing, prints etc!

Link in the bio, have a read if you’re curious! 👀

20 images isn’t enough to properly show off Ramya’s baby shower! The colours, the traditions, the food, the beautiful friends and family!

These two live in a small apartment block in Hawthorn and it took me a bit to realise what was happening - all their guests showing up were their lovely apartment neighbours! Everyone in this block are all close friends and share their lives, which, as someone who also lives in an apartment building, is not the case in most buildings at all!

It was so beautiful to see, all the kids running around and the adults sharing this special occasion with each other!

Not to mention these two had catered for lunch for me as well, it all happened to be vegan, and Ramya’s father-in-law patiently explained what each Indian food item was and what to eat with what!

It was so kind and I had the loveliest chats with Ramya, her family and neighbours, and I left with the warmest feeling of community and kindness, not having felt like work at all!

The best kind of day 💛❤️🩷

The most beautiful, welcoming, traditional Indian baby shower last weekend 💛 Planned with two days notice, no less?!

More from this one soon, but how cute are these two? 🥹

(last one is the most special 🥹)

It’s a general rule of photojournalism that photos with faces are ‘better’ than ones without. Faces give you a clear spot to land in the photo and then start looking around the rest of the image.

But I have a collection of images of faceless photos that I loooove and am so happy with!

And every one of these events has all the usual face photos too, but the extra details a photographer catches are what sets them apart. 👠

I’ve had a few family sessions lately that haven’t appeared on socials, and this is why.

With the rise of AI and the way social media is in general, I totally understand you wanting to limit yours / your kids presence online.

Yes, social media is my main business marketing but this request is more important than that to me 🫶🏼

If it’s important to you, then please bring it up when enquiring - no need to be apologetic at all, it’s so so so fine!

It was lovely to meet Summer and Annabelle recently but you won’t be seeing them here, but rest assured their parents got some gorgeous photos for the walls of their homes, which is the most important thing 🥰

Still time this year for a pre-sunset park family session! Especially once daylight savings starts this weekend, we’re getting into ‘after work’ territory for all you 9-5ers!

Immediate family or extended, pets or not, posed or more candid, chat to me about your hopes and we can make it happen! 🩵

Probably the most self-indulgent blog post I’ve written in my many years of blogging - 50 things you may not know about me!

We know I can yap with the best of them, so you probably know A BIT about the photographer you’re considering booking, but.. do you know my favourite Pokémon? My happy song? (Pretty big hint in the post haha).. How short I am? What cursed public holiday I was born on? Three things I can’t do??

Plus much more lore I had to dig real deep for (why did I decide 50?! 50 is so many!!)

Anywho. If you’re nosy (valid) and have a few spare minutes, link is in the bio ###

Never met anyone with so many times and willingness to collaborate and promote others than Kat from Woking Amazing Melbourne 🌱 and Vegan Vegout 🫶🏼

Absolutely gem of a human, works insanely hard in her businesses while constantly lifting everyone up around her without even being asked.

Grateful for the vegan community in Melbourne and the people it connects me with 💚💚💚

Always so special to me when clients from years ago come back 🥹 I photographed Alysha’s hens 2 or 3 years ago, and so lovely to catch up and meet her hubby and newborn 🤍🤍🤍

These mini family sessions have really all just felt like chatting with friends, they’ve been such a highlight of my winter!

I have a couple more to photograph and a few more to post, but am excited already to bring them back next winter!
