There are some people who carry pieces of your history that nobody else could ever understand.

Chrissy is one of those people for me.

We were girls together, long before we knew who we would become. Before motherhood, before the responsibilities, the heartbreaks, the growing, the changing, the chapters we couldn’t possibly have imagined back then.

And somehow, all these years later, I get to stand behind my camera and photograph her becoming a mother.

There is something profoundly beautiful about witnessing someone you once knew as a girl step into a version of herself you could never have imagined.

These photographs aren’t just maternity photographs to me.

They are a little piece of time.

A reminder that life moves impossibly fast, that the people we grow up beside can become the people we are lucky enough to witness becoming parents, and that some friendships quietly survive every version of who we become.

Chrissy, I am so honoured that after all these years, I get to hold this chapter for you through my lens.

And one day, when this beautiful baby looks back at these photographs, they’ll see their mum exactly as she was here.

Loved.
Glowing.
Waiting.
Already completely theirs.

What an absolute privilege it is to photograph the people who knew you before you became who you are. 🤍

✨ Isabelle ✨

There are some newborn sessions where you look back through the gallery and just think… oh, we created something beautiful here. 🤍

Sweet little Isabelle was an absolute dream to photograph, from her tiny details and delicate features to those beautiful, fleeting newborn moments that disappear far too quickly.

This is exactly why I love what I do.

Newborn photography isn’t about simply taking a pretty photograph. It’s about carefully creating a gallery that feels like your baby, your family and this tiny chapter of your life. The little expressions, the curled-up toes, the sleepy stretches, the cuddles, the connection and all those precious details you’ll one day wish you could bottle up and keep forever.

And honestly, after 15 years of photographing families and caring for newborns, I still get that little feeling when I see a gallery come together and think…

Yep. This is why I’m here. 🥹🤍

Isabelle, you are so incredibly loved, little girl.

What a privilege it was to freeze these first beautiful days of your life for your family. ✨

Not just photographs.
Memories. Feelings. A little piece of today, kept forever.

Little Lily Belle 🤍

Some newborn sessions feel extra special, and this one will always have a little piece of my heart.

After capturing her beautiful mum and dad’s wedding, her big sister’s newborn session, and being there for such a special chapter in their story, getting to finally meet the tiny human they had been dreaming of was such a blessing.

There is something so incredibly precious about those first days. The sleepy cuddles, the tiny details, the overwhelming love and that feeling of wanting to bottle up time because they change so quickly.

Lily Belle, you are already so deeply loved. And I feel so lucky that I got to preserve these first moments for your family to hold onto forever. 🤍

Welcome to the world, beautiful girl. ✨

Isaac 🤍

Ohhh this beautiful boy! 🥹✨ What an absolute dream he was to photograph.

There is something so incredibly special about those first few weeks, the tiny details, the sleepy cuddles, the little fingers and toes, and the way a brand-new baby fits so perfectly into their family.

And the sweetest feedback from Mum after seeing her gallery:

“Woww, your photos are insanely beautiful.” 🥹🤍

She loved her gallery so much that she chose to keep the entire collection, and honestly, this is exactly why I do what I do.

These fleeting moments deserve to be remembered in their entirety. Not just a handful of photographs, but the whole story of those precious first days with your beautiful new baby.

Isaac, you were an absolute dream. 🤍✨

Mariah 🤍✨

What an absolute DREAM this beautiful girl was to photograph.

From the moment she arrived, she was so calm, so sweet and so incredibly loved. You can feel the love surrounding this little girl in every single image, the kind of love that makes your heart ache in the very best way. 🥹

There is something so special about being invited into those first precious days of a baby’s life and preserving all of those tiny details that change far too quickly. Her little features, those perfect lips, her tiny fingers and the way her family already adores her… these are the moments you’ll treasure forever.

Mariah, you were an absolute joy, sweetheart. 🤍

This is exactly why I do what I do. 🥹🤍

Mum’s reaction when she opened her newborn gallery:

“Wowwwwww they are absolutely gorgeous 😭🤍 They turned out amazing, even the ones with Kennedy not wanting to cooperate! Every image is amazing!”

And then… they chose to upgrade to the full gallery. 🥹❤️

Because newborn sessions aren’t about getting a perfectly behaved baby or making every image look the same.

They’re about capturing your baby exactly as they are, the sleepy moments, the little expressions, the cuddles, the chaos, the connection and all those tiny details you’ll one day desperately wish you could go back to.

And when a mama looks through her gallery and says every single image is amazing, that’s the kind of feedback that means everything to me.

These moments are fleeting.

Your memories deserve to be captured beautifully. 🤍

Two years ago, I met this beautiful mama at a wedding. 🤍

What started as meeting through the wedding industry has turned into me now having the privilege of working alongside her at several wedding, celebrating love stories together from behind the scenes.

And now, two years later, I’ve had the absolute honour of stepping away from the wedding world and into something even more precious… capturing her own beautiful new chapter.

From meeting as a celebrant and photographer, to working together at multiple weddings, and now photographing her precious newborn, I just love how life brings the most beautiful full-circle moments.

It’s such a privilege to be trusted to capture these fleeting days… the tiny fingers, sleepy cuddles, newborn goodness and the beginning of a whole new story.

So grateful our paths crossed that day. 🤍

Some stories make you realise just how precious these moments really are. 🤍

Last year, I had the absolute joy of photographing this beautiful family, and this time, they returned with their newest little love, Zara Rose. 🌸

Mum had endured HG throughout her pregnancy and, understandably, there were moments when she simply didn’t feel up to facing anything or anyone.

But then she met her little girl. 🥹

And suddenly, this tiny person she had carried through such a difficult pregnancy was here… and Mum knew she couldn’t let these fleeting newborn days pass without capturing them.

So here we are.

A beautiful little girl. A family growing. And memories that will forever take her back to the moment she first held her daughter in her arms.

Zara Rose, you are already so incredibly loved. 🤍

Thank you for trusting me to capture another chapter of your family’s story. It means more than you know. ✨

One of those sessions that feels even more precious when you know what came next… 🤍✨

A beautiful sunset maternity session with Kate & Liam, celebrating the little wonder they were so patiently waiting to meet.

Little did we know, baby Savannah wasn’t going to keep them waiting much longer. 🥹🤍

Looking back at these images now, knowing that their beautiful girl would be in their arms so soon after, makes every little moment feel that much more magical.

The anticipation. The love. The tiny kicks.
That beautiful in-between moment before everything changed forever.

And then… Savannah arrived. 🌿✨
