Knelly Photo Warrnambool + SW Vic family photographer Making photos fun since 2010! Moments + connections + love Hi! (My 2 favourite titles.). Real families. Real love.

My name is Jodie and I truly feel like I’m the luckiest girl in the world. I’m married to a darling fella and i’m mum to three very gorgeous RAD kids. Our little family is all about adventuring, traveling and making memories, and we’re so fortunate to be able to do so. I think that’s why i’m so passionate about capturing that for other families. I somehow stumbled into my dream “job” (a little sid

estep from graphic design to photography), and I pinch myself daily that people actually pay me to do something that I love so much. I don't do posed, I like to keep it natural and candid. REAL memories. I love meeting gorgeous families, I adore leaving each session feeling like i've just made some awesome new friends (both big & little!). I'm ridiculously passionate & always endeavouring to capture all the little, special moments in our life. I would love to capture yours.

I can't remember ever leaving a session dissapointed.
Until my recent session with these guys...

Gorgeous family. Ridiculously stunning setting.
The perfect sunset setup potential...

And it rained. Not dramatic stormy rain either.
Just dark. Grey. Drizzle. Boo.

They were such superstars and we carried on regardless, but I was so gutted at what could have been if i'd just postponed it.

So we did a very quick take two a few weeks later.
And it certainly didn't disappoint.

Most of these shots are from round 2, as you can probably tell.
We got that sunset!

Always a pleasure to hang with the fabulous O'Keefe's. They have a knack for delivering some of my all-time favourite shots every time.

Another beautiful return family. Another beautiful baby. Another beautiful home. And once again, we only used a tiny corner of the house!

In case you need any reassurance if you don't feel your house is 'photo-worthy'... we did most of Miss L's half an hour sesh on one blanket, in one corner of the lounge.

TOO EASY. SO GORGOUS.
And YES, halfa sessions can be for a newborns at home too.
How good's that?!

PS how incredible are the EYES on this family?! (So great to see you again gang!!)
PPS... 2 posts in a week, lookout!!

'Extended families' or 'Generational sessions'?
Help, need a catchier name to describe my FAVOURITE photoshoot these days, which is lucky as they may just be my most popular booking too ('mum's 60/70th is usually the reason, fyi ;) )

This session a few months ago was on a dark, drizzly morning, not that you'd know it. This gorgeous gang smashed it out of the park, despite a quick spell under the brollies.

Psst... In case you haven't realised the hack yet... You don't just get the big group shots in these sessions, you get all the combos you could want plus each fam basically gets their own little mini. Good value if you're happy to split the sesh 😉😉

The session posting catchup aspirations continue (slowly!). I'm averaging one a week at this rate, lol. Thankfully i'm much better at taking photos than posting to socials, so never fear, your big beautiful family will be in good hands!

Book your gang in here...

OZZY @ HOME
(Forever playing catch-up with session sneaks)
As I've said many times, you don't need to stress about the state of your house, whether it's trendy, finished or neat enough... These guys have the most DIVINE home, and we pretty much did the entire session in one little corner of it!
It's all about the light and the love.
Thanks for having me, lovely little family. X

PRETTY PRODUCTS make the perfect Mother's Day gifts!

Did you know you can order beautiful, elite quality framed prints directly from your knelly gallery? It's SUPER easy to do, but if even that seems a little too-hard basket right now, I'm happy to guide you or complete the order for you.

TOO EASY!! And did I mention you get bulk discounts?
The more frames the greater the discount!

I'm not great at promoting them, but a delivery arrived today so I thought it was a good time to show off their gorgeousness.

DM or email me with any questions or requests.
Mother's Day sorted gang, woo!!

In-home sessions.
It's not about the house, i don't care if it's neat or beautiful, I care that you and your kids are AT HOME there.

Comfortable, relaxed, intimate moments in your sanctuary.
Here's a few faves from a recent session with the lovely Gale's. What a pleasure to capture their GORGEOUS family at home once again.

My diary is filling up with these fab sessions as we bunker down for the cooler months.

Half an hour or full hour in-home sessions available.

I’m going to be honest. Trying to drum up business when the cost of living is insane and the world is on fire feels really icky. I don't like doing it.

Because I know most of us aren’t sitting here right now thinking
“You know what I need right now? A photo shoot!", let alone having the spare cash to be able to do so.

But also... time marches on and memories still matter.

So instead of pretending times aren’t tough, I’ve tried to meet them. I reintroduced OG (the original gangsta) MINI SESSIONS a few years back as a more accessible way to capture family memories, and they've been popular that I've kept them going.

And i'm running some these coming school holidays.

OG MINI SESSIONS : $250 : 10 minutes : 5 digitals
Short & sweet. Perfect for families, kids, pets, couples and headshots.

FRIDAY 10 April PM : Warrnambool bush
SATURDAY 11 April AM : Warrnambool bush
SATURDAY 11 April PM : Port Fairy east beach
SUNDAY 12 April AM : Warrnambool beach
SUNDAY 12 April PM : Warrnambool bush

No pressure. No hard sell (ick).
Just a more affordable option if you're value beautiful family memories.

PS... these are the PERFECT gift for mum if you want to get organised early for mothers day.
Sharing a recent gorgeous family photographed at my fave bush location, so you get an idea of how your photos can look ;)

Generational shoots have kinda become my thing over the last few years and honestly, I love it. There’s something so special and important about getting all the generations in the frame.

My own parents live overseas, so I don’t get this very often, which is probably why I appreciate these moments so much. These are the photos that end up meaning the most later on.

I do a lot of these generational shoots these days, and I was reminded of this session from last year, one of the many I haven't gotten around to post. The rain wasn't playing ball so we ended up at Olga's dad's home and it was absolutely perfect.

If you’ve been thinking “we should really get a photo with Nan & Pop”… this is your gentle nudge.

Book it. You won’t regret it.
