Kath, Brooksy, Ivy & Edith
I am lucky enough to work with my friend Kath and we were chatting one day when I asked her if I could book in to update our family photos. As luck would have it, she also wanted some done so we did a swap. Both our families met at Vaucluse House in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs on a Sunday afternoon in October and we took turns taking each other's family photos in the grounds of Vaucluse House and then at the little bay beach across the road. The light was divine with the sinking sun backlighting the scenery. It was a fun afternoon and we then took all the kids to have fish and chips down by the beach at Watson's Bay.
Oliver, Chloe & Harley
I had the absolute pleasure to go and photograph Oliver, Chloe and their new baby Harley earlier this year. Oliver is one of my cousins and his mum (my aunt) had bought a photography package from me to gift to them once Harley arrived. She was just divine and I swear I could see a strong family resemblance showing through. It was a delight to be able to photograph them in their home environment in the Blue Mountains.
Ally & Ben
I photographed Ally & Ben's engagement session down at Balmoral Beach on a beautiful Saturday afternoon in July 2020. It was wonderful to be able to get out of the house given the restrictions that were in place around that time. Ally is another one of my cousins and I still remember the day she was born. I have watched her grow from a little girl into a beautiful young woman and I was absolutely thrilled to be able to take her engagement photos with Ben. It was a very easy and relaxed session and I would do it all again in a heartbeat.
Simone, Kieran, Archer & Anouk
I met Simone a few years ago when she joined the soccer club I play for. She joined my team where we both play defence positions. She is lots of fun and has a cheeky sense of humour and when she asked me to take their family portraits, I couldn't say no! Archer and Anouk are the most gorgeous small people around and we had fun exploring the local bushland while I took their photos. We found rocks and sticks and even got to blow some bubbles.
Jaime, Will, Fin, Sully & Haddie
No surprise here, but these are my three children along with their cousins. Every year, my Sister-In-Law and I get the kids together to photograph them and we then gift the photos to the kids grandparents for Christmas. We have been doing this for about 8 years now and the kids always have fun spending time together while having their photos taken. My favourites are always the ones where something silly is happening and they all caught at their own shenanigans. Here are some from the past few years.
Paloma & Lucas
On Saturday 24th February 2024, I had the absolute privilege of photographing my sister and her now husbands' wedding. Set in the small village of Rydal, NSW, guests attended a Church Service followed by a Garden Party Reception, held in the picturesque garden of the bride's mother.
In the late afternoon light, the Bridal Party headed over to Pioneer Park for some photos before the returning to celebrate the evening with all their guests. We were very fortunate to have perfect weather for the occasion with soft light, making special moments very memorable.
