A bit about me…

Over the past six years, I’ve photographed hundreds of families, couples, babies and everything in between. Along the way, I’ve learnt that the photos I love most aren’t necessarily the perfectly posed ones. They’re the ones that feel like you, the big laughs, the cuddles, the chaos and the little in-between moments.

I’m all about keeping things fun. I don’t expect your kids to sit perfectly, smile on cue or behave for the camera (in fact, I’d much rather they didn’t!). I’ll give you direction when you need it, but mostly I want you to forget about the camera and enjoy being together.

I’ve always loved working with kids, and my years as a nanny along with being the favourite auntie to my nieces and nephew - probably explain why I’m pretty comfortable with a little chaos. I’m not afraid to get silly if it means I bring out your genuine smiles.

Outside of photography, you’ll usually find me somewhere near the ocean, planning my next trip, chasing a sunrise, going for a walk or finding a good coffee. I love beautiful locations, but more than anything, I love the people I get to meet along the way.

Six years in, I’m still incredibly grateful that this is my job — and even more grateful that I get to turn a little slice of your everyday life into something you can keep forever.
