Non ho fatto nemmeno una foto di noi insieme.

E questa cosa mi rattrista, perché alla fine sono anche quelle le cose che restano. Non solo le immagini create, ma le persone, l’energia, il modo in cui una giornata ti attraversa.

Ieri ho passato il giorno con quattro donne incredibili e famiglie che ci hanno lasciato entrare, per un momento, nella loro vita. E ogni volta mi ricordo che la fotografia non è mai solo fotografia.

È presenza. È scelta. È attenzione. È il modo in cui decidiamo di spendere il poco tempo che abbiamo qui.

Siamo tutti passeggeri, alla fine. Attraversiamo vite, case, storie, stanze piene di cose non dette. E forse una delle poche scelte vere che abbiamo è questa: con chi passiamo il nostro tempo, a cosa diamo la nostra energia, e quanto siamo presenti mentre siamo lì.

Questi sono solo alcuni scatti di ieri. Un piccolo pezzo di una giornata che ha dato tanto.

When they’re little, we photograph the moments that happen every day so we never forget them.

When they’re older, we create the moments that don’t happen anymore, just so they can.

Because every maternity session should start with a lightsaber battle.

I cannot wait to meet you Rosie boo boo, and to witness the love that is already waiting for you on the other side.

Every now and then, someone puts into words exactly what I hope people feel after working with me.

A past workshop attendee recently wrote:
“It gave me so much more than just photography and business tips. It’s about seeing how she works, thinks, guides, and connects.”

Lately, I’ve needed those words more than I expected.

Not because I doubt my craft ~ that part has never left me. But in a world that feels louder than ever, sometimes the harder thing is wondering if softness still cuts through the noise. If connection still matters. If people still feel something.

The next day, she brought her own family to me.
“We came in tired and grumpy. I watched her gently guide us until we all softened. That moment has stayed with me.”

That is the work to me.
Not perfection. Not trends. Not formulas.
Just people. Just connection.

Rome ~ 4 June
Lugano ~ 7 June
London ~ 16 June

2 workshop seats remain across Europe, one final London sunset session on June 17, and one remaining Chicago/St Louis session on August 24.

I’d love to hear from you.

Sometimes I wonder if the photos I take and the things I try to teach even make sense outside my own head.

Then messages like these arrive.

And I realise maybe this was never really about photography at all.

For her birthday she chose me.
And them.
To exist in their memories, with them.
And all the small things that won’t stay small forever.

18 years of being a mother and I’m still learning every single day. I keep coming back to the same thing. How much love can hold even when everything else feels uncertain.

I’m grateful for every mother who has trusted me to step into their story, to witness it, and to quietly hold it through my work.

I don’t travel to see the world.

I travel to see people. Truly see them.

The trips are getting shorter as my own children get bigger. The windows smaller.

Somehow that makes every session, every morning, every walk with a camera feel more precious than the last.

I’ll be in Europe from early June and would love to photograph your family while I’m there.

Rome ~ 2–5 June
Lugano ~ 5–8 June
London ~ 15–18 June
Italy until 30 June

I’m looking for a few Sunshine Coast families to photograph on 14 May and I’d love to offer you a beautiful session at no cost.

I’m searching for a newborn (2 weeks and under), a mama in her final weeks of pregnancy, and a family with two or more children.
These are real sessions, photographed with care and intention. You’ll receive images you’ll treasure.

If that’s you or someone you know, send me a message or email [email protected] with a little about your family.
