Natural Family Portraits at the Tennyson Dunes
Victoria, Jacob and Luka’s family photo session was all about natural family moments and captuing the abundundently full and fun love that Victoria and Jacob have for their little boy who recently turned one! And of course, crazy furry pooches Simba and Nala came along to frolick in the sand and the sea. It was such a gorgeous session and a bunch of fun! Thanks for having me guys. :)

Golden light through the gum trees, old stone ruins, dancing and two very good dogs: Court and Lachie’s engagement session at The Pines in Kapunda had room for all of it.
Three generations together for the Ng family’s portraits at Port Willunga beach and Martin’s Barn. Grandparent cuddles, laughter on the sand and time for each family to have photographs of their own.
Kristine and Marti’s post-wedding couple portraits took us from Mount Barker to Bridgewater Mill, with piggybacks, gorgeous old stone buildings and plenty of laughs along the way. And somehow, we managed to find two tunnels!
Sharon and Tom’s family portraits in Adelaide started at home, dogs included, before we headed to the park for a play. Shoulder rides, upside-down grins and three generations together.
After photographing their wedding, I caught up with Dan and Caity for maternity portraits at our little farm in Auburn. Their dogs, Tilly and Sage, joined us for a wander through the scrub and some gorgeous golden light.
A relaxed newborn session at home in Clare, with plenty of time for feeding, settling and cuddles. We followed the beautiful late-afternoon light and let these early days as a family of three unfold.
Lauren and Brent married in this field, and so it was very special for them to be able to come back and take family portraits here with their two little girls. Exploring the forest looking for wild flowers in the conservation park, and cuddling underneath the wedding tree in the paddock while horses looked on.
I loved this portrait session to celebrate Georgia and Levi’s engagement. The sun was warm and lovely, and the location was perfect with gum trees, reeds, tall rock walls and beautiful grasses. And what could be better than finishing up with puppy cuddles?
The early newborn phase is so fleeting (and if we’re honest, a little chaotic as everything changes in the most beautiful of ways!) There is so much joy and excitement to capture, and a whole new little person to meet and document. What a marvellous stage in life!

Ten years after I photographed Katie and Chris’s wedding at Serafino, we returned with their two girls for a relaxed family session filled with races, cuddles, beautiful chaos and one spectacular Port Willunga sunset.
