Sometimes all you need is to wander barefoot, camera in hand, with a million creative portrait and landscapey shots to execute. ☺️ Fossils Bluff was that place for me that day, and I am so going back for some golden hour shots. If you’d like to get some pro shots of yourself of you and/or your family/friends/partner, I’d love to have you along for a lil photoshoot adventure. 🤗 Lovin these summery vibes 🥰 DM to book a sesh. 📸 Happy Monday 🧡

Tell ya what, for a photographer wanting self portraits in bedazzling golden, sunset colours for a portrait shoot, I did a pretty damn good job compromising. 😆

Tasmania just had other plans 🤷‍♀️ but it’s never gonna stop me. Some of my best photos so far were taken in uncomfortably windy conditions. And the state decided to throw this soft, gloomy weather at me… but you know what.

It worked out so well! It’s a whole vibe. And yes it would’ve been cool if we had soaring colours and golden light, but I just tool advantage of the soft blue instead. Of the roaring waves. Of the isolation. It was kinda perfect anyway.

Some of the best times as a photographer are the moments you least expect. And I wasn’t expecting this.

But I’m glad I welcomed it, I kinda love these photos of me. A mix of shy girl photography, and beachy portraits 🥰

Would love to do more of these, if anyone is keen… maybe we’ll get some actual colour next time 😊 Oohh and I do free quotes if you wanna shoot me a message for more info 💃 🤗

🌼 Just a couple of shots I’ve captured on the side lately outside business hours ☺️📸 This simple kind of photography reminds me of when I first started taking photos. I went from chasing most sunsets every night as a teenager at the beach, and photographing flowers, to still doing that, but mostly I photograph portraits and weddings now. It’s so much fun to go back and revisit the past sometimes, and to see how far I’ve come. ☀️

Over the years, I’ve found my style and what I love to capture most. Which is the simple, blissful moments people share together. All smiles. All laughs. All things nature and adventure. And then to present those moments back to them through photography, and to receive such joy to have something physical they can hold and always look back on… it brings@peace and fulfilment to my heart and soul.

When I was about 6 years old, I discovered cameras through my Mum and Aunty. I held a constant fascination with them. I started off with a cheap and little pink digital camera at around 10, to my iPod touch camera, to my first DSLR when I turned 15. From there, I’ve been unstoppable. I’ve had my bumps and twists and swear words, but each time, I get back up and fight for the dreams of the beautiful 6 year old I used to be, and for the dreams of who I am now 📸✨

I’ve had so much experience with professional photographers and business mentors and myself, I just can’t wait to see where my journey takes me and who and what I get to capture next. ☺️📸

Ah… anyway, heres some recent shots that took me down memory lane. 🤗🌼
