How do I find people that want MORE sessions like this. 😭

Like… this is my fu***ng favourite kind of session.

Just movement. Just love. Just two people completely caught up in each other and not giving a s**t about anything else for a minute.

It was beautiful, it was real & it was so fun because they didn’t have to act they just got to be them.

Give me all of that.

This is the kind of s**t I want to photographšŸ¤Ž

A little PSA about sharing your photos online šŸ¤Ž

First things first..
if you don’t want me posting your photos on Facebook or Instagram, YOU CAN JUST SAY NO. šŸ˜‚

Seriously.

No photos of your kids.
No bts
No sneak peeks.
No nothing.

I don’t care. šŸ˜‚ Your photos are yours, and if you want them kept completely private, that’s exactly what I’ll do.

BUTTTT… I also want you to know there is a bit of a middle ground that I don’t think everyone realises is an option.

You can have photos of your kids taken that don’t actually show who they are.

You can still have your beautiful family photos, the cuddles, the chaos, the little moments, the connection… without having your kids’ faces plastered all over Facebook.

Photos from behind, little hands and feet, cuddles, silhouettes, your kid running off into the distance šŸ˜‚ all those little documentary style moments where you can still SEE your family, but your child’s identity isn’t obvious.

So if you’re thinking:

ā€œI’d love to share some of our photos, but I don’t want my kids’ faces onlineā€¦ā€

TELL ME.

When you book, you’ll fill out a questionnaire and right at the end there’s a little box that says ā€œDo you have any questions for me?ā€

Chuck it in there!

I can make a point of getting you some images specifically with this in mind. You can have all the photos you want for your album and your own memories, but I’ll also focus on capturing some beautiful ones that you feel comfortable sharing.

Because it doesn’t have to be ā€œeverything onlineā€ or ā€œnothing online.ā€

You get to decide what you’re comfortable with. šŸ¤Ž

And honestly, I’d much rather you tell me exactly what you want than sit there thinking ā€œoh s**t, I don’t want my kid’s face online but I also don’t want to miss out on those beautiful photos.ā€

WE CAN WORK AROUND IT. šŸ˜‚šŸ¤Ž

It’s actually so weird… I feel like I’m a business now. šŸ˜‚

Like, genuinely. who let that happen?!

Everywhere I go lately it’s oh, you’re that photographer, hey?

And honestly…

Yeh hi girl. It’s me. šŸ˜‚

Your unhinged photographer. Or, as my daughter calls me, your *ā€œtofrographerā€*. šŸ˜‚

And man, do I absolutely froth over it.

Because I remember when I was just sitting here wondering if anyone would actually book me, wondering if people even knew who I was, wondering if this little photography thing would actually go anywhere.

And now people recognise me around town.

I’ve even got a sticker being made for my car, which makes me nervous as hell because suddenly my driving is representing a business. šŸ˜‚

Although, I’ve made it this far without being put up on Wagga’s s**t drivers page, so honestly… I reckon the sticker is basically a reward at this point. šŸ˜‚

I’m also wanting to get a couple of shirts made up for myself because apparently I’m fully committing to this whole I own a business thing now. šŸ˜‚

So… does anyone around Wagga do custom shirts / embroidery / printing for just a couple of shirts?

Because apparently we’re branding the photographer now. šŸ¤Ž

I’m looking for a very specific kind of mama for a little motherhood story I have in my head.

I’m looking for a breastfeeding mum who is comfortable being herself in front of my camera.

I’m picturing something vintage, nostalgic, soft and a little wild. Flowy dresses, wildflowers, bare feet, movement, golden light and all those little between moments that make motherhood what it is.

I want the feeding.
The cuddles.
The tiny hands.
The messy hair.
The connection.
The moments that you might not think twice about now, but will mean everything to you years from now.

And please don’t feel uncomfortable about the breastfeeding side of things. I have breastfed every single one of my kids. One of mine breastfed until nearly four, and I tandem fed my last two until I physically couldn’t anymore. šŸ˜‚

So trust me when I say there is absolutely no awkwardness from me when it comes to bo***es. šŸ˜‚

I’m looking for a mumma who is comfortable with those moments being documented and who is happy for the images to be shared on my socials and used in my portfolio.

You’ll need to have your own outfit that fits the vibe think flowy, vintage, earthy, romantic and something that moves beautifully.

If this sounds like you, or you know a mumma who would absolutely fit this vision, send me a message or tag her below. šŸ¤Ž

Last night’s sneak peeks are out, which feels like the perfect opportunity for me to have this chat… šŸ‘€

I often get that nervous excited question after a session:

**ā€œSoooo… how long until we can see our images?ā€** šŸ˜‚

Guys. I HATE holding onto good s**t.

I give myself **24–48 hours for sneak peeks**, and once I’m home, settled and able to get my arse in the chair, I’m usually straight into it.

There is absolutely **NO gatekeeping happening over here.** šŸ˜‚
If your images are ready, I want you to have them.

For your **full gallery**, I allow around **2–3 weeks**, depending on how much I have going on at the time.

And yes, I give myself that extra breathing room because life has a funny way of throwing random s**t at you when you least expect it. šŸ˜‚

But I promise you, I’m not sitting on your gallery for weeks just because I can.

I’m impatient too. I want you to see them, I want you to love them, and honestly… I’m probably just as excited to send them to you as you are to receive them. šŸ¤Ž

So if you’re sitting there after your session thinking *ā€œWHEN ARE MY PHOTOS COMINGGGG?ā€*…

Don’t worry. I’m already working on it. 😘

WELL. WHAT. A. FU***NG. DAY. šŸ˜‚
Went to work this morning walking normally and somehow came home with two fu**ed ankles. Right one definitely sprained, left one absolutely fu**ed. I should probably be at the hospital but hubbys right on the odd chance it’sĀ just swollen thats a lot of hours waiting around. So naturally I think ill just moon boot it for a few days and see how we go. šŸ˜‚
Wanna know how I did it?
I FELL OUT OF A FU***NG 4WD that was on the hoist….
Yep. A 4WD.
Slid out thinking the hoist was there to step on…
IT WAS but it also was NOT. Apparently the side steps were a little wider then I thought, I think I dont actually know.
But down she went.
Both ankles just went in directions there not meant too & I hit the concrete, in slow motion but like full spastic.
It hurt so bad I laughed in shock until I actually cried. Hubby just looked at me like, ā€œWTF are you doing?ā€
MATE. I’M NOT FU***NG DANCING AROUND THE WORKSHOP. Ā šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­
Anyways, I was over today by this point so I limped to Pa’s for a cuddle & some empathy, picked up the kids from daycare and headed to tonight’s session because apparently nothing stops me.
And honestly? Perfect session. šŸ¤Ž
Happy little man, Mum came prepared with multiple outfits, cupcakes AND SHEEP. šŸ‘šŸ˜‚
Just when I thought it couldn’t get worse, my bra fu***ng snapped at the front MID SESSION.
Because apparently today needed a wardrobe malfunction too. šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø luckily tonight’s client was a girls girl & just let continue with a little less support.
Finished the session, thought I’d finally made it…
DROPPED MY CAMERA.
So if anyone needs me tomorrow, I’ll be on my arse, in a moon boot, watching SVU and editing.
Two fu**ed ankles. No bra. Nearly killed my camera.
So how was your Tuesday? šŸ˜‚šŸ¤Ž
