When you have grown up at the beach and are a sunrise gal, that is absolutely where your photoshoot with your family shall be ☀️

I couldn’t tell you how many sunrises I’ve seen Marika share on socials over the few years I’ve known her and now with baby boy in on the action. So I knew she would jump at the chance to do her first family shoot there. And what an epic sunrise it was…

My absolute favourite thing to add to a session is something very special to the families I work with. How great it will be for Markia & Brad to look back at these photos, taken at their special slice of the coast at their special time of the day 🥰

Last year, this beautiful family won my $1,000 family portrait experience after sharing why professional photos meant so much to them. They wanted to celebrate this season of life, with everyone together and making memories.

And that’s exactly what family portraits are about. Not waiting for the “right” time, when the kids are a little older, you’ve lost a little weight or when life slows down a bit. The moments worth remembering are the ones we’re living right now.

It was such a privilege to finally welcome this gorgeous family into the studio and create something they’ll be able to look back on for generations.

When you’ve been through hard seasons, you realise that just being together is worth celebrating.

Thank you for trusting me with your family’s story.

✨ Brooklyn + Matty ✨

Last weekend I had the pleasure of Photographing Brooklyn & Matty’s wedding at Southwell school in Hamilton. My first wedding in 8 years! And my second wedding I’ve done within Brooklyn’s family.
It was such a lovely, relaxed wedding and I felt so lucky to be a part of their special day.

Heres a little peek into how it went…
