Womersley family – photography 20 years later
The first time I photographed the Womersley family it was almost 20 years ago. I was so happy to hear those images still hang on the walls of their family home.
When we were planning the shoot Ros mentioned that her boys wanted to recreate a few of the images I took all those years ago. The whole process and the ...
The Locke family farewell Townsville
The lovely Locke family farewelled Townsville recently heading off on the caravaning adventure of a lifetime. It's the sort of trip most of us only dream of... well these guys are actually doing it! Just think... homeschooling the kids, life on the road, there's nowhere you really need to be and moving at whatever pace you want to. Wow!
Before they ...
family photos – Holmes Brown family
I'm lucky to have had the opportunity to document for this family over the years. Stewart and Kristy know - when their baby turns 6 months old, it's family photo time. This is something they started with their eldest and have followed through with for their younger daughters. It's good to have a deadline to follow. It's easy to get ...
Family photos at Pallarenda beach
When you live down Pallarenda beach of course home is the best spot for family photos. This family walk this beach most afternoons. They have their special spots along the way - the log that the kids balance along and the rocks. They enjoy watching the kids play while the sky turns from blue to purple to pink. In years ...
Faith – family photos Home Hill
Capturing Faith and the Swindley family on the special occasions of Faith's Debutante Ball was the second shoot I did when I visited my home town of Home Hill recently. With 3 generations present it was really special. At our first location, I captured Great Grandma's portrait as she will be 90 later this year. Watching the interaction between the generations was ...
Family photos in Home hill – Brotto family
Lara and Jeff's 2nd son Ben was a partner for the Home Hill Debutante Ball. With all her boys looking very smart, Lara thought she would take the opportunity to update her family photos.
Ben needed to be at ball rehearsal at 4.30pm... this meant we couldn't use the afternoons beautiful golden light. I traveled down to Home Hill the week before the ...
Grandad’s visit – extended family photoshoot
The lovely White family had a special visitor coming all the way from the UK so wanted to document the occasion with some photos. This was Grandad's 2nd trip to Australia. The whole family adore having him stay. The boys were never far from his side throughout the shoot. When choosing a location for the shoot I wanted something classically ...
Ronon and Maddy – cousins
Living on either side of the country, Ronon and Maddy had never met in person. They met for the first time only hours before this shoot and instantly became the best of friends.
There was no way that beloved family member, Frank the sausage dog was going to be left at home. He also had a ball playing with the kids!
It ...
Family day on Magnetic Island
I've shot for this lovely family many times over the years so it was wonderful to reconnect with them again. Before the shoot, Lorren and I met up over coffee to chat about possible locations, clothing options and how she wanted to display the end result. It was at this meeting I found out that Lorren, Luke and the kids ...
On the side of Castlehill
A beautiful perspective of our city combined with the loveliest family!
After 5 minutes I felt like I'd known this family forever. To me, they are the quintessential Australian family. They even have the most gorgeous little terrier named Poppity. Traipsing through the spear grass for the perfect shot didn't bother these guys. They were up for an afternoon of adventure.
These images were shot ...
