HELLO EVERYONE! This person is double vaxxed and back!

I know I've been very quiet during this lockdown but well, lockdown life happened and I just didn't have mental capacity for it. I reckon y'all can relate. But with restrictions easing I am coming back out of my hermit shell. I'm so ready to pick up my cameras again and capture some pure happiness!

If you're due to get hitched his year and have me booked in, expect a check in email today. I've also got heaps of availability for other sessions this late spring/early summer: so hit me up for family, couples, commercial sessions. I am GAME!

Okay that's it! Let's go!

Yesterday under a big oak tree these two legends got legally hitched courtesy of another legend Zena Lythgo . Civil Celebrant Marriages & Funerals. Amongst a small group of close friends and family and best dog Chilli Pepper they exchanged absolutely no romantic words at all, just the admin bits. Because their wedding might not have happened yesterday, but it's still going to, just a while from now and all the mushy bits will be saved for then.

Also I cannot tell y'all how bloody excited I am about getting to photograph loved up couples again. They are the best, especially when they bring their dog.

Christmas photos for awesome people!

I've teamed up with the legends over at Good Day Club for some non-cheesy non-creepy-santa Christmas photos. With a Wes Anderson inspired set, you'll be all set for fun, relaxed and rad photos of you and your fave people + pets!

To be honest, this is probably going to be the highlight of this year. Go go go! Get yourself a spot and get yourself the years coolest Christmas photo!

OMG PEOPLE THIS IS A PHOTO FROM TONIGHT. I am as excited about being able to photograph again and easing out of lockdown as Maryam & Juan are. I mean, they're even running (a habit that Juan had from before but Maryam gently started doing in lockdown!). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I'm so stoked to be shooting a bunch of people in the coming months for my shorter and longer portrait sessions. If you're keen on some photos - hit me up! https://goldandgrit.com.au/portrait-sessions/

After approximately 1 million years of lockdown, YES PEOPLE I'M BACK IN BUSINESS. And I am SO excited for it you have no idea. To celebrate I have done up a bunch of tiny to large options for portraits, fitting any group and any budget.

Let's celebrate all the people in the your household: your partner, your family, your bestie or your dog! I cannot wait to photograph you all (socially distanced behind a fancy camera and a less fancy covering).

Here's something absolutely DELIGHTFUL to look at today (because to be honest, that's what we all need). It's Elly and Tineke's gorgeous Sorrento wedding that's been featured on Dancing With Her and it's filled with colour, laughs, hugs and happiness. Looking through it feels like a hug because it includes:

a. cute af couple
b. a puppy!!!
c. Precious Celebrations
d. a sunset portrait session that was to die for.

Okay, go look now! Do it!

A jumpsuit and a wedding gown, this unique Melbourne wedding day was a relaxed beach meets bush vibe for a creative couple who did their wedding their way.
