A year ago, I captured the beginning of Alice and Kydon’s marriage story… and now, getting to photograph sweet baby Ava in their arms feels like the gentlest full-circle moment. 🤍
From vows to new life….what a gift it is to witness love grow! ✨

There’s something about afternoon family photo sessions in the hills.

The Scanlon family made this feel so effortless. Their girls, full of wonder and awe, little feet wandering, the sweetest of giggles. All reminding us that it’s never about perfect - just being together.

This is the good stuff. ✨

Back with this beautiful family again… and this time, to welcome their little boy 🌞

I’ve had the honour of capturing Daniel & Danielle’s journey through their two gorgeous girls, and now baby Noah has made them a party of five! Watching his big sisters absolutely smitten with him, was pure magic.

Welcome to the world, Noah… you are already so, so loved ✨

I’ve been quietly photographing weddings, families, babies and so much more magic but not sharing a whole lot of these sessions over what feels like a long time.

Truthfully, I’ve wrestled with the hustle of social media while running a business, raising 3 kids and tending to all the beautiful, messy, rhythms of life. Something had to give - and it was this space.

This year I’m going to attempt to share more of my work without a care for algorithms or likes. Behind the scenes, my work has deepened. More intention. More slowness. More feeling.

2026 is asking me to expand - to stretch,
to grow, to step into something new that’s already reshaping the way I hold space. I’m letting it reveal itself in time. But while that chapter unfolds, I’ll still be here, photographing always with intention and heart. ✨

If you’re new here, welcome 🙏🏼

Also thank you , camera button pusher, hype person, and one of the big reasons this made it onto Instagram. She’s posted more of my work on her socials lately than I have 😌.

Stepping back into the sacred space of birth in 2026 ✨
After a season of pause and reflection, I’m ready to step back into those dimly lit rooms filled with strength, support, and the sound of first breaths.
I’m honoured to return to these stories, these families, these moments that change everything.
Here’s to capturing new life, women in their power, the tears, the joy and the quiet magic that happens within four familiar walls. 💫

If you’re in and around Melbourne, birthing at home in 2026 and thinking you’d like your birth documented, I’d love to hear from you. 🙏🏼

It’s been a little while since I’ve shared here, but what better reason to pop back in than with this beautiful newborn session I captured back in March. Sweet baby Lily 💕 — the newest addition to a beautiful family I’ve had the joy of photographing since her big brothers were tiny newborns themselves. There’s something so special about watching families grow and being invited back each time to meet and capture their new little additions. ✨

This maternity session was pure magic. This kind of light can’t be staged. Sharna radiated absolute grace and goddess vibes and was glowing from within. Beautiful and completely her.

Counting down the days until their next great adventure begins. 💫

Beautiful baby Henry 💫

There’s nothing quite like capturing the first days of a brand new life — tiny fingers, sleepy smiles, and all the love in the room. Sweet Henry was an absolute dream during his newborn session. His calm nature and those little expressions already show so much personality!

It’s an honour to freeze these fleeting moments in time for families — moments that pass by far too quickly but will be cherished forever. ✨

The beautiful Raymond family on a gloriously sunny afternoon! This was part II of their family photo session. We headed for the beach after I captured a bunch of snaps in their home which I’ll soon share too. But when booking a family session, know that you don’t have to be limited to one space or location. From the comfort of your home, to your favourite park, gardens, bush spot, street road or beach, I’m all for photographing you and your gang, big or small - wherever you’d like!

I am full for May~June but please get in touch if you’d like a cosy Winter newborn or family session in July or August. ✨

At home with Emily, Sam, Monty and their newest addition, Darcy. So special to be asked back again to capture this beautiful fam. I think this was the fifth time I’ve photographed them and I just adore seeing families babies grow and evolve into their own personalities. And little Darcy’s smile here had me melting ✨✨✨
