Wattle & Fern Photography

my last session of the year went a bit like tonight 🙌
EXCITING
SPARKLY
HOT & STEAMY
& THEN..
...A BIT WET
A huge CONGRATULATIONS to the gorgeous Bailey & Brianna, who finally said "I DO" & how privileged to capture the memory for them. I feel I've been so much part of their journey. ❤
Such an exciting time for them to step into a new year.

I want to take this opportunity to wish you all the best for 2026.
Although I haven't been as active on the page, I've been busy behind the scenes with a few sessions and a wedding that didn't make it to the page.
I'm excited to step into a fresh new year and want to thank you all for for watching me kick goals I didn't even know existed. A highlight for the year was definitely photographing at The Abbey but the most glorious thing and I'm not sure much will top it for a lifetime, was watching my daughter give birth to her second child. Such an amazing way to witness the beauty of your own, words can hardly explain. I'll be forever in awe.
I better get cracking on catching up on my last couple of sessions to finalise and I guess we call it a year. Don't point out I haven't spammed you with newborn photos of my grandson, I promise they are coming. Ahh they grow way too quickly.
Thank you for your support once again. It definitely does not go unnoticed and on those hard days where I struggle to see the horizon for the clouds, it's the positive comments and love I see that remind me why I keep doing what I love xx
Happy New Year all you cool ass kiddos 😘

WOW! what a year 🙌
I would like to thank all my gorgeous, beautiful soul clients for another year of choosing me to capture your lives ❤

The year I lost my beautiful mumma 😓
I thought I wouldn't be able to move.
I thought my grief would totally consume me but it was you guys that helped me keep busy and keep doing what I love.
Did I think I would be able to do 2 newborn sessions on the same day only 4 days after she died? Not at all but I did because I didn't want to let anyone down and I want to thank both those mummas so much for their grace and concerns in the days that followed 😘
Although some sessions as I look back on them, I can tell my grief took over, there are some I can truly say are my best work ever. I will never want to stop growing my skills for my photography.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for your patience and understanding when my turnaround time was just too long and some of you I want to pass grace onto, when your photos were more important than my time grieving my mother.
I promise I was trying to do my best in those days but have to admit it's been a really hard time missing my mum so much.
I know most of you know what grief feels like, I just have to say that having both parents in heaven is another level I'm trying to overcome. It doesn't get easier, you just have to learn to live with it.

I have finished the year feeling somewhat caught up! It's an awesome feeling I have to say. Juggling sessions, sneak peeks, editing and getting your USB's to be sent is sometimes tricky to manage and not wanting to upset anyone is always my main priority. As soon as I would post a sneak peek for a session just done, I would have a message to say what about my USB, which made me not want to post on here because some days I just couldn't deal with explaining it all.

I am excited for 2025. I have 2 weddings in May, only days apart 🫣 so If anyone is wanting to book in please message me and we can organise something beautiful for you.
I haven't increased my prices for a couple of years because of the increased costs to living but I've realised I'm giving you all so much more than others only giving limited amount of images.
You all know you get all your images, no stuffing around choosing images and downloads that expire etc etc. I try to make it easy and give you a full package inclusive of my travel, USB and postage costs. If you only knew how long it takes me to edit your sessions you would realise I probably only get paid a fraction of what I would get paid as an hourly rate doing something else but I wouldn't have it any other way!

Goodbye 2024 and welcome 2025 ❤
Love to you all for still being here and showing me in every way I am worthy xx
