Heelers have a reputation for being a bit.. intense.
My boy certainly is.

But nobody told this sweet girl!

Black Rock Beach, golden hour, zero drama.

Planning a family photo session can actually be… fun.

Here are 3 ways to keep things relaxed:
1️⃣ Choose your happy place: Your favourite beach, a much‑loved park, or home. When everyone feels comfortable, the real smiles appear. Not sure? We'll give suggestions and help you choose!

2️⃣ Work with your rhythms: We plan around energy levels, nap times and soft light so no one is pushed beyond their limit, especially little ones and grandparents.

3️⃣ Make it playful: Think cuddles, games, tickle attacks and movement instead of ‘stand here and smile’. We will guide you so it never feels awkward.

Save this for when you start planning your next photoshoot day

She’d been with me since I was seventeen.

Through illness. Through every country I lived in. Through every version of my life I’ve ever had.

When we lost her last June, my husband and I had a twelve hour drive ahead of us.

We spent the whole time scrolling through photos. Laughing. Crying. Holding on.
Those photos got us home.

I’ve been a dog photographer for fifteen years because of her. And this June, I’m doing something in her memory.

More on Sunday.

Grandparents, cousins, aunties, uncles... how often are you all in one place at the same time?

Extended family sessions are about more than one big group photo. They’re about the little in‑between moments: grandpa telling stories, cousins racing along the sand, tiny hands in the biscuit tin, grandma’s quiet cuddles when everyone else is running wild.

Hold these memories close. Let's document them.

This is Flee. She’s the reason I became a dog photographer fifteen years ago. She’s also the reason I’m doing something a little different this June. More on Sunday.

For now, hi. I’m Kirstie. I photograph dogs, and I take it very seriously
