The Pregarc's Family Portraits in the Oaklands Wetland

Photographs are such precious things. The first thing on anyone’s list to grab in a fire (after loved ones of course!) Because it’s the people we love and the memories we make with them that are, in the end, the most precious thing. So when I get to go on journeys with families, from wedding to fur baby, first child, second child and bringing the parents and grandma to the park to continue capturing the memories. I consider myself very blessed in this job indeed. It was so so nice to catch up with you again Erin and Dave! To meet your new precious little one, see how much your first has grown up! And spend time with your family again. Thank you! xo

Claire, Liam, Finn & Peter's Natural Family Portraits at Onkaparinga National Park

I was so excited when Claire and her beautiful family said they were keen to meet me at the Onkaparinga National Park for portraits. A place where ekhindas waddle about, Koala’s hang out in trees and roos nibble on grasses. (AKA: one of my favourite places). And also a wonderful place for a young family to go for an adventure and an explore! We had a wonderful time pointing out bugs, ekhidna hunting (no luck this time), and capturing spcial family portraits Thanks so much for having me guys! xo

We were all slightly worried about the rain this day, but just as we hoped, the rain eased and the sun started shining beautifully through the clouds. Despite being slightly windy, it was a gorgeous afternoon! Full of cuddles and beautiful dreams of what the next few weeks, months and years would bring. All the lovely dreams and wishes for the little one soon to join them. A beautiful little pause just to enjoy the moment, and the anticipation of moments to come. Congratulations guys!! :)

You were both a joy to hang out with and photograph! Thanks so much Kris & Lily! :)

Amelia's Natural Family + Small Business Portraits

I love to capture beautiful and natural moments between people, like Amelia and her son. With an exciting new small business planned, these photos can be used not just for the special family memories, but also to share what she does with the world. The adventure and the fun and the authentic tenderness all captured within one short hour were beautifully heart warming. 💛
