It was the incredible Mother Teresa who said “Let anyone who comes to you go away feeling better and happier. Everyone should see goodness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile. Joy shows in the eyes. it appears when we speak and walk. It cannot be kept closed inside us. it reacts outside. Joy is very infectious.” From the minute I arrived, until the very last moment, Kate…

Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron Wedding | Kirsty + Brendan
I practically grew up on the beach. Our house was less than a two minute walk to the water’s edge and we would wander down to the beach like it was our backyard. So when Kirsty and Brendan told me about their family’s boat shed at beautiful Blairgowrie, and their wish to have photographs taken at the place that they feel so connected to, I knew just what they meant.
Mornington Peninsula Family Beach Sessions
I’m so excited for more warm summer nights like this one spent with the cutest family a couple of weeks back. The beach can often be a difficult location to work with, but it’s one of my favourites. Especially later, after a hot day, when the sun is going down, and you start to get that warm glow. There’s just such a calm, nostalgic feeling that just resonates with me.
Stillwater at Crittenden Wedding | Jess + Lee
When Jess and Lee got in touch with me regarding their wedding at Stillwater at Crittenden, they were pretty upfront in letting me know that they were looking for a photographer who takes beautiful pictures, but who is also very easy to deal with, and who wouldn’t put pressure on them. They wanted relaxed, natural shots that captured their love of the day.

Vendor Spotlight | Rachael Mary Films
This is the first of a series of posts that I wanted to do to shine the spotlight on some of the incredible people that I have the pleasure of working alongside at weddings. A wedding is a team effort, and it takes the talent of many people to bring together a magical day for the couple. Some of these people are visible on the day, and some are never…
Why You Don’t Need a Shot List, and What to do Instead
Picture this : It’s your big day, and you’ve just stepped out of the bedroom where you were getting ready. Your Dad looks up as you do and sees you for the first time, his little girl, looking so beautiful it brings a tear to his eye. You rush over to give him a hug and as you do, you glance over to make sure that your photographer has got…
Bouquet Making Workshop with Poppy Culture and Villa Floretti
From the moment you drive up the tree lined driveway of Villa Floretti, you know that you’re being transported. I seriously could have been somewhere in Europe last weekend for their bouquet making workshop held by the uber-talented and all-round lovely gal Lauren from Poppy Culture, Mornington Peninsula wedding and event florist and stylist.
Yarra Valley Wedding at Yarra Ranges Estate | Rebecca + Ranga
The wedding is the backdrop, it’s the people that make the story. Rebecca and Ranga currently live in San Francisco and with their family and friends in Melbourne, they had the task of organising their wedding day long distance. And I have to say, that they did a pretty amazing job! When the stunning property at Yarra Ranges Estate caught their eye, things started to fall into place from there….
Motherhood Mini Sessions | Melbourne Family Photography
With Mother’s Day looming it’s all about celebrating Mum’s in May, and I’m on a mission to entice as many mums as I can to come out from hiding and to exist in photographs with their children.
