My Story
The journey
I was 2 months off giving birth to my 5th son....and I had never held a professional camera in my life.
The desire to take photos of my soon to be newborn drove me to spend hours researching how to use a new DSLR camera I purchased (like, how do I turn it on), so when my baby was born, I could use it straight away.
How it all
started
I still remember when he was less than 2 weeks old - between feeds - setting up a sheet to take newborn portrait of my baby and two of his older siblings....
After I had edited it, I sent my favourite photo to my husband who was away....and that photo sat on his laptop home screen for a long time. One of his all time favourites.
I loved creating pieces of art and soon found myself doing it for others. The greatest gift is seeing eyes light up as I present a gallery of curated and beautiful images - I had found something I LOVED doing!
That led to me pushing further into photography education - lighting, posing, editing, composition....
Where did that lead me? To here. As a professional, ready to give you the greatest gift.
Not just pretty pictures, but a true personal connection from a person who cares and you feel completely at ease to be around!
