Honey and Stew’s family
Just after Christmas my husband, Violet and I headed South for a month. With restrictions changing constantly we had to be flexible with our plans and prepared to dash home at a moments notice. In the end and all worked out and what a trip! We stayed with our friends (who are more like family) Honey and Stew. Most of ...
Family photos by the river
The Moore family live riverside so the banks of the river was where we chose to do their family shoot. I like to shoot in locations that mean something to the people in the photos, telling a story about them. It's also a lot easier to get everyone to relax if they are somewhere familiar.
The focus for this shoot was ...
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 ...
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 ...
The Lyon/Hull extended family – 2018
This is the third time I've documented the Lyon/Hull extended family. The first shoot was done 5 years ago and in that time the kids have grown from toddlers to teens. It's important to document a family every few years because when people say 'they grow so fast' they certainly aren't kidding. You can see their other shoots here and again here. ...
The White family
With Townsville and Magnetic Island as our backdrop, I captured these images of the White family. These gorgeous boys kept me on my toes, which is my favourite way to shoot. The only way to capture 'life' is to have life happening. Can you pick who the cheekiest is? By the end of the shoot we had sand everywhere but smiles ...
The Deacon family 2018
I love shooting for the Deacon family yearly, but this one was extra special.
Huon moved to Perth last year so this shoot was scheduled for his first trip home. It was beautiful seeing them together after their time apart. That's the thing with family... no matter how long you're apart, when you're reunited everything just falls into place. There's no ...
Tea at Henry’s
I'd love to share this recent commercial shoot shot for Lisa who owns Tea at Henry's. The business is named after Lisa's little boy Henry, therefore, we simply had to have Henry involved in the shoot. Sharing tea is obviously something they do together daily. Enjoying a tea with someone you love creates an opportunity for connection and sharing. I've ...
