Team Thompson – a surprise photoshoot
I can finally share images from this shoot which has been top secret business for a few months. Eloise, Callie, Courtney, and Riley surprised their parents for Christmas this year by having sibling photos taken. The shoot was themed around their childhood (They played UNO often) and was shot in Brisbane, where their parents met many years ago. The jacarandas even ...
Deacon Family 2016
Honey first photographed the Deacon family in 2006. Every year, without fail, Carolyn would call in November/December and book in to update their family photos. When Honey moved away the honor was passed onto me. For the last 10 years, we have watched them grow and change. In the beginning, they didn't have any pets and now it's a wonderful ...
Leyton’s graduation – good buy high school
I have been spending so much time shoot lately I have let the blogging slip. Flashback to a few weeks ago when Leyton graduated. When planning Leyton's grad shoot I was excited to hear he had an idea for one of the shots. Wearing a white singlet, holding a cigar, Leyton wanted a 'gangsta' shot. I loved the idea and ...
family of 4 – documentary style pregnancy photos
Natural, documentary style photos - this was how Jaimee wanted to capture the final weeks of being pregnant with her third child.
My place was the perfect location offering light-filled rooms that are simply decorated in neutral tones. I asked Jaimee to bring along a piece of artwork and a few small photos of the girls to give the background of our ...
family in the park
I first documented Stewart and Kristy's family when Isabelle was a baby. After welcoming Isla into their family it was time to update their family photos and get some shots of Isla to match the ones they have of Bella (this avoids arguments when they are older).
I love shooting this age group. The girls really couldn't have cared less that ...
Violet and Ale
My daughter Violet and her friend Ale are peas in a pod. They have big plans for their future - they are moving into their own house together, traveling the world together and they even want to work together. I love listening to them make their plans. It was beautiful to capture their friendship.

the poli family
Deano was turning 70 which prompted his family to organise a family photo shoot. A family member filled me in that there is nothing Deano loves more than sitting down with his family around him, having a chat. We thought we would incorporate this into the shoot arranging a 'boss' chair for him. The king of the family!
I imagine when ...
Townsville – Australian guitar making school
My Stepie Tane was recently visiting from NZ. As a gift, we purchased him a spot in one of Joel Dubbeld from Studio Dubbled's - Australian Guitar Making classes.
Students of all ages and skill levels come together to create in this light-filled studio. Tane was eager to make as much progress as possible and some days spent 8 hours working ...
Suz’s little family
It's been 12 months since I last photographed Isla Mary and this time we wanted to document their family. Behind Suz and Terry's house is an awesome laneway. It's got great light, Isla Mary is comfortable there because it's almost home and its easy access made it easy to bring Olli the beagle along - Perfect location!
Isla is almost 2, ...
baby chloe
There is nothing more beautiful than the way parents look at their children. I loved spending the morning with this little family capturing what is such a fleeting time.
Isn't Chloe such a doll!
