How gorgeous are these two?! Before Katie and Ryan welcomed their adorable bundle into the world, they wanted to capture some moments together. I have known Katie for 10 or so years now and was lucky enough to have her at my wedding a guest, neighbour and esteemed personal hair stylist, keeping me looking my best bride self 9 years ago, so was absolutely honoured when she reached out and asked if I’d capture these moments for her.

I‘m so excited to see her absolutely blossom in her new role as a mum and know this is one adored little bebe.

Lake Keepit adventures with some of my favourites ❤️ it’s been far too long since I’ve pulled out my camera but what a spectacular sunset to break that streak.

We recently spent some time camping beachside with a group of our wonderful friends and I of course had to use the opportunity to whip out the camera 📸

Welcome baby Theo 💙

Theo’s father reached out to me around Christmas time asking if I’d take some photos when their new little bundle joined them earth side. How lucky am I?!

Thank you Reece & Jessica for letting me capture these precious moments 😘🥰

My beautiful sister in law recently married her Prince Charming (or more affectionately known as Uncle Fart in our household thanks to Miss 5) and asked for some photos of her and her flower girls getting ready. Being that my Annabel was one of said flower girls and I have my camera nearby and at the ready most times, I wasn’t about to pass up the opportunity!

Thank you Leah for trusting me to capture part of your special day ❤️ I’m so lucky to have such an amazing sister in law.

I had my beautiful friend Georgia recently ask if I’d take some photos to celebrate her youngest sons first birthday. I’m not going to lie.... I was pretty apprehensive capturing such a big milestone. I’m still very much learning my capabilities and I know I make mistakes. I’m also suuuuuper critical of my own work.

I made mistakes; I had my lens decide to throw an error which was an easy fix but threw me nonetheless. I forgot to use the diffuser on my flash resulting in a too bright, harsh light when I used it. I forgot to change my camera from jpeg to RAW. Small things but they make a difference.

But

I learned ALOT in making these mistakes and I’m so thankful to Georgia that she trusted me and gave me the incredible opportunity to take Louis photos.

Happy One Year Louis!

I was recently asked to photograph a baby shower and to say I was excited (read: nervous) is an understatement. It was such a beautifully glorious day and a stunning set up.
A big thank you to Al and Jess for your confidence in me ❤️❤️❤️
