The most wholesome afternoon with the coolest little family ☀️🛝🌳

Tim & Lilly have been friends FOREVER & it was so special to be able to capture both of them and a HUGE number of their family & friends together on their formal day! ✨
2026 formal bookings include a highlight film & bookings are open now ❤️‍🔥

I will only be taking on a limited number of formal clients to ensure that the experience is calm & not rushed for my clients 🥰✨

What a family shoot can actually FEEL like 🤭❤️‍🔥

I had so much fun spending an afternoon at the park with these awesome kiddos, and their wonderful parents!
How special to have been able to create some smiley portraits for the grandparents, AND capture the authentic, loud, fun times that will one day be so missed. Maybe that sounds a little cringe… but I’m here for it! 🛝☀️🌳

Ask & you shall RECEIVE! 🤭🥰🤤

Finally getting around to sharing some of my work & this was one of my FAVOURITE afternoons behind the lens last formal season. ❤️‍🔥

It was so special to capture the afternoon for Chloe & Marcus, who later went on to win formal KING & QUEEN - well deserved I would say! ✨✨✨

Absolute power couple! ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

I’m only taking on a very limited number of formal bookings this year, so reach out if this is something you may be interested! 🫶🏻🫶🏻

Hi, I’m Steff. ✨
Birth photographer.
Story-keeper.
Film learner in my “watch it back and cry” era.
FIFO wifey.
Mum to Vance.
Dog mum to Pippa.
Coffee always close by.
But what I really do?
I preserve the way this season feels.
Yes, I photograph birth. The grit. The power. The way you are looked at when you are doing the hardest, most sacred work of your life. The first breath. The first cry. The first time your baby lands earthside and you realise nothing will ever be the same again.
But I also hold onto the in-between.
The ordinary Tuesday afternoons that will not feel ordinary in ten years.
The way your toddler fits on your hip.
The way your partner watches you when you are not looking.
The chaos. The tenderness. The becoming.
I care about keepsakes. The kind you pull out on hard days. The kind your children will one day hold in their own hands. The kind that say, this is who we were. This is how we loved.
Photography was my first language.
Film is becoming my second.
Because sometimes a still frame is enough. And sometimes you need to hear the shaky laugh, the whispered “you’re doing so well,” the newborn cry that makes the room shift.
Motherhood is loud and blurry and breathtaking all at once. My work is about freezing the blur without polishing away the truth.
Whether it is birth, a growing belly, a slow family afternoon, or a season you never want to forget, I am here to tell it gently and honestly.
If you are here, I’m really glad you found me.
This is storytelling for the women who want to remember.

Elevated, without the extra✨✨

Just beautiful light, neutral tones and your people as they actually are.
These are for the families who want updated photos but don’t want the production of a full session.
✨Ten minutes.
✨Ten images.
And yes, your furry family member is absolutely welcome. One well behaved legend per session please. We are also realistic! 🦮

I’m not flooding the calendar with minis every second month. I want these to stay intentional, calm and actually enjoyable.
Sunday March 22 is the first studio release.
If you’ve been waiting for something simple, modern and a little bit elevated…this is your moment.
Spots are limited. When they’re gone, they’re gone.

Mini sessions are suitable for up to 5 family members and one furry friend.Additional participants may be accommodated with prior approval.
