I had the pleasure of first meeting Rebecca and Daryl a few years ago to take pictures of their gorgeous boy Jude when he was a two months old. Recently I was also able to photograph another major event in their lives - their wedding day! At Jude's newborn session, there was a superhero theme and that snuck in to the wedding as well with the …
Steph, Josh and Emmett | Family Documentary
These guys actually live in Melbourne but were bringing their boy up to family for Christmas and asked me to spend some time with them capturing some family photos of their first family trip to Sydney. We started at Josh's Mum's place and headed to a nearby park for Emmett's first go on a swing! After a little while in the park it was time to head back …
Samuel’s 2nd Birthday | Event
I have spent a considerable amount of time with this family over the last 18 months. I have photographed Samuel's non-denominational christening, John's 30th birthday cake smash, Samuel's first birthday party and now his second birthday party. It is always a pleasure to spend time with these guys as Emily and John really appreciate the documentary style …
Stacy and Greg | Wedding in Mosman
Stacy and Greg Stacy contacted me requesting a shorter coverage of three hours for a small wedding witnessed by only nearest and dearest. It was to be a cocktail reception at The Signals Room, a function area that is nestled under the acclaimed Burnt Orange Cafe in Mosman. Stacy told me that she and Greg had shed many of the usual traditions and trappings …
Duck Family | Documentary Session
I spent a morning with the Duck family and it was such a hoot! I knew when mum, Lisa, approached me with her idea that this would be an excellent session. Lisa said she was having a quick shower one school morning and took a moment to look around her, thought about the kind of mornings they have before school and decided THAT is what she wants me to …
A morning out | Documentary Session
My parents are going away for a bit and refused to let me drive them to the airport (which is about a 2.5hr return trip) but let me drop them at the train station five minutes down the road. The girls and I decided to squeeze in some more time with them by staying on the train for a few stops and getting off in time for a morning snack. We haven't had an …
Jupiter | Newborn
I love my job. There are amazing people who allow me in to their home at what is quite a vulnerable time, first-time parenthood. As cliched as it sounds, they open their hearts to me when they open that door. By the end of a documentary newborn session, I have likely witnessed some skin to skin contact with their baby, breastfeeding and all the exposure …
Master L | Newborn
I eagerly await the news of any newborn but especially when I will get to photograph them. Even more so when they are my new nephew! As with all my Captured documentary sessions, in the lead up to this session I was in touch with the parents via a questionnaire and over the phone to establish what they would like documented. We are mostly at the whim of …
Sarah and Danusha | Maternity
I have been following this family with my camera for quite some time now. Full disclosure, Sarah is my sister but I am so grateful that she and her husband have embraced my photography and let me just do my thing during their sessions. I did a maternity session with them for their first child but my style and artistic vision has changed since then and they …
Kaye and Adam | Wedding in Bodalla
Kaye and I worked together several years ago. Well, we had the same role in different regional offices but shared resources, caught up for debriefs, organised and ran training together and were part of a larger state-wide team. Over the years we developed a friendship that was cemented when I returned from maternity leave and Kaye let me know she would be …
