☀️ Good morning everyone!
Things have been a bit hectic on the farm lately. Between getting the farm ready to open to the public, taking one of our Highlands to the state breeders show in Harvey, to the latest lot of gorgeous miniature pigs being born, it has been busy..but wonderful.
Anyway, I have decided to open up a couple of spots for family photography sessions on our farm in York. These sessions will be held on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays.
I currently have 1 spot available for this Saturday and Sunday.
Please PM me for more info or to book :)

I love discovering all these little spots around the farm. Nature has a way of creating beauty everywhere…even in fallen branches.

Happy Good Friday, from our family to yours.
I hope you have a great long weekend, whatever you may be doing.

Good morning everyone!!!
I am SO sorry for the lack of communication on this page. If I am being honest, I needed a break from photography for a while to focus on my mental health, my family and also building our farm and getting shire approval for visits etc…oh, and major surgery 😅 The farm visits/tours approval process has been a headache to say the least…and over a year in the process. Anyway..I am happy to say that we can finally see an end in sight and our final few requirements will be done and dusted over the next couple of weeks (hopefully in time for the second half of the school holidays. Once that happens, we will be running our private farm tours/visits and also family photography on our farm in York (with or without our gorgeous highland cows and a multitude of other animals) If you are looking for a photographer to capture those photos, I would LOVE to help you out. I won’t be doing shoots in Perth for the time being though as I am not a fan of the 3 hour round trip, the crowds of people and to be honest..I just LOVE being on our farm (It also gives me so much inspiration) so I am focusing on what I actually enjoy and makes me happy. If you would like to see the farm progress, I will share the link to my other FB page below. I have also included some photos I have done previously here, and just some happy snaps from around the farm with the animals (who can be included in the shoots if wanted..and also farm visits/tours)

🌟 Just a little update! ⭐️

Hey everyone! Yes, I’m still here 🤣 Recovery from surgery is taking longer than I’d like( but definitely expected, I am just impatient) and being stuck on crutches, unable to do much, is definitely not my idea of fun. But hopefully, it won’t be too much longer before I’m back on my feet!

Once I’m up and about again, I’ll finally be able to offer photoshoots at the farm with my gorgeous Highland cows—something I’ve been so excited about! Can’t wait to share more with you all soon! 🤩

As we welcome the new year, I want to wish all my clients a very happy and prosperous 2025!

Although I’ve bid farewell to our Santa sessions for the last time, I’m excited about the incredible plans I have for the year ahead. In 2025, I’ll be opening up our farm for private tours and photoshoots with our animals—something I’ve been dreaming of sharing with you all.

I’ll be stepping away from this page for a couple of months to recover from surgery, but once I’m back, I can’t wait to dive into family photoshoots again. I’ll also be organizing a few mini shoot days at beautiful locations around Perth, so stay tuned for updates when I’m ready to get started.

Thank you for your continued support, and I can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for all of us!

As we quickly approach the new year, I wanted to wish all our followers a very happy 2025

We hope that 2025 is a great year for you all.
I created a little vision board for our year. I have plenty more to add, which I plan to make into an extra large one to put on my bedroom wall to serve as a reminder of all the things I would love in 2025.

A few things on my board include:
-More camping with the family in the paddock.
- Inviting more friends over for bonfires, pizza nights and get togethers.
- Healthy calves for our cows.
- The safe arrival of our 2 new mini pigs from QLD….omg I cannot wait 🐷 🐷
- A successful pygmy goat kidding season.
- To build a bigger and better hutch for Fern, our rabbit.
- Grow more veggies to provide us at least 50% of our veggie intake for the year.
-Hold photography sessions on our farm with our beautiful animals.
-Open the farm for private tours
-Put Hope in with Jordan (our bull) in preperation for having our very first house dairy cow in milk.
- Attend a couple of local ag shows to display our animals.
- Spend more time with family and enjoying the farm together.

I would LOVE to hear some of your plans, goals or wishes for the new year. Feel free to comment below ⬇️

This is definitely not a glamour photo, but as I get older, I care even less about these things 🤣
Anyway….as I sit here in my little home away from home for the last 2 months, I reflect on the last 12 years. We have made so many friends, seen so many children grow up and watched the magic of Christmas in your childrens eyes. I have made so many memories with my Dad, and for that I am super grateful. There has been some hard times too. Covid, big bouts of gastro, boiling hot sleepless nights in the caravan, being away from my family and bushfires to name a few. I want to thank you all for your continued support over the years, because without you, there would be none of this! So Thank you!!
As for next year, I am not 100% sure what is happening, but I definitely have some ideas in my head about setting up some farm style Christmas shoots (think Highland calves, mini goats and mini pigs with Santa hats)
I will still be doing my family photography throughout the year, so I look forward to being able to continue our friendship through these. After todays photoshoots have finished, I will be taking some time off for Christmas, to spend with my family and then some major surgery in Jan. Hopefully I will be back up and running (or hobbling on crutches) around April. See you all on the flip side! Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!! 🎅🏻

Only 4 more days left of Santa shoots…and then we will be closing the doors for good. If you are wanting to come visit Santa, we still have a few spaces left for this week!

*Edit - 4 days total, not 4 days straight…I know a few of you were getting worried and messaged me 🤣
