Some of my favourite sessions are where mums ask me to photograph them with their kids. How often do you jump in a photograph with your kids? This session was a Mother’s Day gift from Tamara’s husband. A precious gift that captures her kids as they are in this moment. They clung to their mumma as I photographed them – asking to be picked up and hiding from the camera. There will come a time when they don’t need to be so close; to cling to her leg as she walks or to rest in the curve of her neck. But for now, she is their safe place.

These guys… | Families
These guys oozed love for their kids. It’s hard to explain that feeling when you become a parent isn’t it? There is something inside that clicks. Caring for a child is so much more than health, diet, cleanliness and education. Parents are their voice, their advocate, their support, their nurturer, their safety, their love.
Our arms are a safe place for comfort and they will never really know how much we love them.
There is something about the word ‘together’ that immediately makes me want to hug someone. Together is cosy, together is warm. It is a shoulder to cry on, it is support when you need it. Together makes cafes, concerts and BBQs more fun, it generally makes life a little easier. These guys did ‘together’ really well during our shoot. I love it when ‘together’ oozes out of my clients. It’s more than love. It’s connection. And that’s what I want to capture for you.
When I think of romance, I think of flowers, candlelit dinners, picnics, quiet spaces, warm hugs but more than anything tangible it is that connection with someone special that you can’t find words to express. The way that special someone makes you feel when they sweep you up in their open arms can be breathtaking; and when you are alone on a clifftop in the magical Blue Mountains, you may just believe you are the only people who exist in the world.
Hannah creates this kind of scene for her clients set against the beautiful backdrop of the Blue Mountains escarpment. She provides the colourful, delectable delights on a platter – cheese, dip, figs, berries, grapes and more. But more than that, it’s the peaceful opportunity to connect. Indulge your senses and let Hannah create something magical for you and your someone.

There is always room in your heart to love more. Our hearts expand with each new baby. The love is endless.
There is so much love here. I can feel it. Can you?
This family is about to celebrate their daughter’s second birthday. Before she turns two, they had a very quick little photo session on a chilly winter’s morning by the sea.
This session was all about Ady.
She was happy to jump in puddles and explore her world. She was trying her best to tell me how old she would be holding two tiny fingers up to show me. You might also catch a glimpse of her dog Watson in the background too.
Family sessions are about joy, they’re about laughter, they’re about every day. Renee is a super-special, beautiful friend of mine who shares a passion for capturing the every day. Her husband Jed had actually requested this shoot so Renee could be a part of it (us photogs do not get in front of the camera enough) so I knew when we did this session that it would be fun.
Renee and Jed made a sea change a few years back and now are fully entrenched in their seaside community. Afternoon walks on the beach, nippers, paddle boarding…
This is where they live.
It’s where they belong.
They’ll always have a place in their heart for where they grew up but have created a loving home for their little family and can’t imagine life any other way. What better place to have our session than their local beach. The place they know; a place that has special meaning and memories to them.
Celebrating MotherhoodÂ
In the lead up to Mother’s Day this year I was lucky enough to photograph some inspiring women who absolutely adore their babies.
These are working mums who juggle motherhood with a pinch of passion on the side. We all have something we love, whether it’s bohemian clothing, meeting people, providing people with something they need or maybe dabbling in some photography. For me, I’m passionate about all of these things!
Here’s some of these mums with their beloved little humans. To see the work their mummy magic pop over to Bella Boheme or drop into their Springwood, NSW store. 💕
For Annie’s 1st birthday, her mum & dad wanted to get some photographs of her. So one sunny morning we captured little Annie up to mischief & investigating her world. Precious. Read More
I love photographing families. You can feel the love. And better still, I love getting to know everyone during our session. Often the kids are a little shy when they first get in front of the camera (although some are natural performers!). Photographing this little family was a joy. Watching these cute kids interact with their parents is what I love most – kisses and hugs, giggles and laughter, tickles and chasing. A little bit of the everyday & a whole lot of love. Read More
