Wow, what a dream to start 2026 with this beautiful shoot.
The first time I met Emily and her boys, there were two on a windswept hill, wrapped in layers and laughter. This time, there were three 🤍
Grateful for the imperfect evenings ✨

A November message, a brand-new baby boy, and making space for returning families and moments that matter. A little drizzle, a quiet “do we cancel?” and choosing to trust it anyway.

Wild boys running free, then soft, gentle cuddles with their newest little brother. Chaos and tenderness living side by side.

Wild hearts, soft moments, a new little love and memories that didn’t need polishing to be magical.
These are the stories that stay

Beyond excited for tonight’s photoshoot with this beautiful family and their four boys 🤍

Every two years or so, I have the honour of welcoming them back in front of my lens. Watching the boys grow older, taller, and more themselves each time is something truly special. Yet what never changes is the purity of the moments we capture together.

As mum once said: the boys know you now. They know what to expect, they feel safe, and they only want their photos taken with Simone behind the lens. That trust… that magic… it’s something I will never take for granted.

So deeply grateful to witness these chapters and freeze them in time ✨📷

✨ Wow, it’s been a while since I last posted… Life has been a little wild, tossing us around in unexpected ways. But today, with my camera in hand, being invited to capture pure connection felt like both a welcome distraction and a gentle step back toward my heart — toward the things I love most.

There’s magic in holding space for moments like this — tender, fleeting, beautifully raw. This maternity session reminded me exactly why I first fell in love with storytelling through my lens. ✨📷🤍

This photo is from a while back but just pure magic

“My goal is always to capture with heart and intention — to create honest, meaningful memories that you’ll look back on twenty years from now and remember exactly how that moment felt.“

“I haven’t posted in a a while, but that doesn’t mean I’ve been absent. This past year has been a journey through seasons—of change, of growth, of learning to pause and truly be present. I took a step back, not away, but closer to what matters most.

Instead of chasing, I’ve been leaning into softness, into kindness toward myself. And in that gentle flow, my artistic self has found something so beautiful. I feel deeply grateful for the families who find me, who welcome me into their lives and trust me to capture the purest connections—the love, the laughter, the fleeting moments that make life so full.”
