23.01.2022 Would you just look at this beautiful growing family! Chris and Carissa asked for deep greens and lovely trees to tie in with their love of spending quality time as a family at parks, and I think this spot documents that just beautifully. In just a few short months this beautiful little girl will grow into a big sister, and I can't wait to see them as a family of four!

21.01.2022 This gorgeous baby boy was just four days old when I photographed him for his beautiful newborn lifestyle session. Jack is so blessed to have four big brothers including one in heaven, and as a mum of three boys myself with only two of them earthside, these photographs bring me such joy. What a blessing a rainbow baby is! A gorgeous little soul who offers hope and healing Welcome to the world little Jack! And what a gorgeous tribe of boys you have Lauren and Joe.

20.01.2022 It's hard to say what I loved most about this family session, whether it's the tones from that glorious sunset hitting the field or Rebecca's gorgeous outfit selection, Ila's stunning smile or the way Jesse chatted the entire session (which reminded me so fondly of my own little guy). Then there's little Finley's sweet curls and the way this beautiful family of five simply loved and interacted with one another. Sooooo, maybe let's just say I loved EVERYTHING about this session!

20.01.2022 This stunning fam is almost ready to welcome this sweet little one to the world! Zac and Em were my first ever wedding booking and so they'll always have a special place in my journey, and I'm so excited to capture this next season of their lives. Izzy is adamant she's getting a sister because the baby is in Mummy's belly; if the baby were in Daddy's belly, it would be a boy. Three-year-old logic, bless! The Land Of Looks Beauty Clinic

18.01.2022 Loving this sweet family session from the weekend! Little Allegra was a champ but by the end of our session, Matika was feeling a little overwhelmed. It was right when we wanted to recreate a gorgeous tutu photo with both girls from when Matika was a baby, and I could tell Rolinia thought it was hopeless, that Matika was done. But what followed was the most beautiful series of photographs of Rolinia doing what mumma’s do best: comfort and love. Thanks for a beautiful afternoon you guys x Flowers crowns // Bloomin Lovely Flowers Bundaberg Tutus // Samantha-Jayne, The Label

17.01.2022 Yesterday's impromptu rainy day session had me smiling from ear to ear! This is my sister, and I can't even put into words how AMAZING it is to see her this happy. Don, you've been a breath of fresh air for our family. And Lindy, I can tell you light him up just as much as he lights you. What you two have is wholesome and full of life, and I can't wait to see where it takes you together!

16.01.2022 I am having a few issues sharing my insta stories over here on Facebook, so if you’d like to see the collection of gowns I’ve curated for my client wardrobe, head on over to insta

15.01.2022 Oh our wondrous boy. This is you, at two. Delightfully cheeky, inquisitive, fearless. And yet at the same time, your favourite place is still in my arms. You are so full of love, and your smile - so often mischievous - lights up the whole room. Anyone who knows you knows just how incredible you are. Hudson Oliver, thank you for being ours!

15.01.2022 I love love love an overcast sky! So bright, and yet moody at the same time. Little Paisley however, did not appreciate the sky. Or the beautiful temperature. Or the vibes coming from her fave country tunes. So, she's very lucky she has THE MOST adorable grumpy face - so adorable, in fact, that I was giggling as I edited these And I'm hoping Brody and Mary can giggle too because they messaged me afterwards to say that she'd had the cheesiest and cheekiest grin driving back home!

14.01.2022 My little brother got married yesterday! It’s been such a beautiful few days. We witnessed (and photographed) an intimate ceremony overlooking the Glass House Mountains yesterday and spent today exploring the waterfalls and rainforests surrounding Maleny, followed by a family picnic dinner and campfire tonight. More to share soon!

13.01.2022 It was an absolute joy to share in my brother’s getting ready moments, and not just through being his sister, but also through documenting it. Some might find that odd because surely I’d want to relax and enjoy his day. But honestly, I LOVE what I do. And I LOVE that I’m the one who gets to give them the incredible gift of photography. I pour my heart and soul into all my work, but these photographs are also infused with the love of a sister. Once Sam was ready and had left ...Jacaranda Cottages, Taylor arrived. Tay has been my sister longgggg before last Friday. In fact, before she came along, Sam and I weren’t overly close. We have both grown so much since those days anyway, but with Tay in the picture and a beautiful family of their own, we are now closer than ever. So, it was truly an honour to be part of Tay’s getting ready moments, reflecting on how much joy she’s brought our family through Sam and how happy I am knowing how happy she makes him. Tay, you have such a beautiful heart and we truly blessed to officially welcome you into our crazy family. The ceremony: breathtaking. My favourite part? Aside from the stunning valley and mountain views from One Tree Hill, it would 100% be Lincoln’s face. He beamed from ear to ear throughout the entire ceremony, stoked beyond words that Mummy and Daddy were getting married. And, I think the final photo pretty much says it all, considering the journey it’s taken them to get to this moment Congratulations Mr & Mrs Goss!

12.01.2022 There were a few elated squeals while editing this stunning maternity family session... that golden glow from the sunset lighting up the dry valley... the colours Jessie chose when styling... just chuck in an adorable toddler and a stunning baby bump and my goodness! Elliana just celebrated her first birthday last month and so it was extra special to capture that milestone before she becomes a big sister. And Jessie, you glow. Literally, glow

10.01.2022 I was delighted to spend my morning with this lovely fam welcoming their newest addition and Alex's darling brother, Jack! This little guy is eleven days young and pure perfection. Carl and Charlotte, two boys 18 months apart and you guys are in for the sweetest, wildest ride!

10.01.2022 This gorgeous family session was originally scheduled at a park, a location chosen purely for convenience because there were time constraints upon us. But, when I woke up on Sunday morning ready to message Jodie to confirm that everyone was healthy, I realised my heart was not feeling it. So instead, I messaged Jodie to suggest sacrificing some of our session time to drive to a location I KNEW would give us an incredible vibe, and as it turns out, the location I suggested was literally walking distance from their home! I am SO thankful for clients who trust me. Even though we had less shooting time, we have a gallery full of happy memories and warm tones that's true to the style Jodie chose me for. And my heart is 1000% happy! Enjoy you guys x

09.01.2022 This is the second year I've photographed this gorgeous family and I'm already looking forward to making it an annual tradition next year! These five beautiful kiddos are full of joy and kindness and it is not only incredible to watch, but so lovely to document. This year Mum and Dad hopped in the frame too, which was sooo good! These are the photographs the kids will smile at the most fifty years down the track

09.01.2022 Not going to lie; Jake’s big sister Maddison stole the show on Sunday afternoon during his newborn session, but since we thoroughly inconvenienced him by scheduling it during his cranky hour, I don't think he minded It was an absolute delight to see how much Maddie adores her new baby brother, and even though the 'sun' was missing from our 'sunset' session, the sky created such an amazing backdrop mottled with light and clouds! Welcome to the world Jake

09.01.2022 On Saturday afternoon I met the McCallum family at their 'spot' and what unfolded was exactly what my family sessions are all about... we laughed, we explored, we observed, we played. Everyone was relaxed and having fun, which is the reason I love the opportunity to use a location familiar and special; the kids felt like it was just like any other visit! Struan and Tracey, yours was one of those sessions where I walked away thinking... I NEED to photograph them again!

08.01.2022 Em is such a beautiful soul. We reconnected after high school about three years ago when she reached out to me during a really difficult time. I have no doubt God brought her in my life again; her friendship in motherhood and grief and her encouragement during my Christian journey has been such a blessing. Em, I'm so happy to see baby Ivy welcomed into your gorgeous tribe, and I'm so honoured to capture this season for you!

08.01.2022 My favourite part of a wedding day, where I'm not just documenting the emotion unfold, but letting my creativity flow! And to say I enjoyed the change of scenery is an understatement. Maleny is BREATHTAKING. And no offence to The Hummock, Bundaberg's only hill, but there is so much DEPTH to these photographs with layers of valleys and mountain ranges in the background; it is literally a photographer's dream. Add in some gorgeous newlyweds and I was pretty much beside myself. Sam and Tay, you two look so genuinely happy. Love you guys x

07.01.2022 These gorgeous girls! My session with these two was such a lovely way to spend the morning, just hanging with Autumn and her mumma who has become more of a friend than a client with this being the fifth time I've photographed their beautiful family! It also made my day walking into their home and seeing all of their precious photographs printed on the walls! Truly the best thing you can do with your photographs is to print them so they bring you joy on a daily basis

06.01.2022 Nicole didn't realise when she booked me that I was based in Bundaberg, and when she found out it was a two hour drive for their young family, she was still 100% on booking; this just amazes me and fills me with so much gratitude. We worked through our session super quick because it was colder than anticipated and it meant giving them a head start for the journey back home, but Oaklan was just THAT relaxed and photogenic that we've still ended up with a beautifully overflowing gallery! His little romper is special too because it was a gift from his aunt that celebrates him being James and Nicole's rainbow blessing Oaklan's romper // Henry's Shed

04.01.2022 Saturday afternoon's gorgeous couples session with Ryan and Lill! These guys were SO natural - always moving, always touching, which is absolutely perfect for my prompts. Not to mention always laughing! And didn't Kendal from Kontour do an amazing job with Lilll's hair and makeup Ryan and Lill opted to have their previews sent privately to then choose their favourites to share online. I've had quite a few requests lately about keeping previews private, followed by 'is that ok?' and I just wanted to use this opportunity to say yes, that is absolutely ok! As much as it killlllls me to not overshare in the gorgeousness, these are YOUR photographs and I am genuinely so thankful to have your trust in taking them, regardless of how they're shared Thank you Ryan and Lill for letting me do just that x

03.01.2022 Happy Fridayyy!!! I spent an afternoon by the ocean earlier this week with @maddisonjaynephotography getting branding photos of each other, and mate, it was SO fun. I’m constantly in awe of the sense of community we have in this industry and that two photographers sending encouraging messages to each other here and there over time has turned into a beautiful friendship! Let’s spread some love and some smiles as we head into the weekend: I would LOVE for you to tag someone who has helped build you up and you them, who is absolutely killing it in their business and you are so blessed to call a friend! x

02.01.2022 What an incredible winter's day Mr and Mrs Beezley chose to become husband and wife! Describing the lead up to this day as stressful would probably be an understatement for Richard and Stephanie considering the way their ceremony played out was actually Plan D. But I'm absolutely elated because none of that even matters anymore; THIS was their wedding day and it was utterly perfect for them. The smiles on their faces were contagious and they would erupt in laughter just looking at each other during our location session, radiating happiness. There are so many gorgeous photographs I could share from earlier in their wedding day, but you all know me - straight to that golden sunset goodness!

01.01.2022 Wedding bookings for 2021 are officially closed and I just wanted to extend a heartfelt thank you to all my brides and grooms! Excited is an understatement! 2022 bookings are open and booking now

01.01.2022 Last night, putting our babies to bed, I was reflecting on the day and thinking what day it was tomorrow, and my heart leapt when I realised it was a work day. Crazy, right? And just now, scrolling through the photographs I'd chosen as a sneak peek for this engagement session, I feel so much joy. And this is how I know, this is it. This is what I'm meant to do. I thoroughly enjoyed Paris and Daniel's company on Sunday afternoon; we talked, we laughed, we danced, and I cannot WAIT for them to see these because I'm 99% sure they're going to love them as much as I do (good ol' self-doubt accounting for the other 1% ) Scroll through to the end for possibly my favourite sunset photograph to date...

01.01.2022 At some point over the past week or so my page reached 2,000 likes! I'm so grateful my business has had such incredible growth recently. Speaking of growth: those who follow me on Instagram will already know that I've just had a BIG refresh. Over the past few months I've invested a tonne of time into education, specifically focusing on marketing, investing and nurturing a brand rather than a business, and I am SO excited about what's to come. So, if you have Instagram but you don't already follow me, I would LOVE for you to hit that follow button. I get a little more personal over there in sharing my journey, as well as offer a wealth of information about my sessions and the way I work. And, you get to be the first to know about some amazing upcoming launches Happy Weekend!
