I had the absolute joy of reconnecting with my past wedding clients, Olivia and Drew, for a relaxed family session in beautiful Kiama. This time with their sweet little boy, Beau. It was so special to witness this next chapter in their lives, especially with Beau on the brink of walking, full of curiosity and charm.

Now a family of four, the Richardsons welcomed Ryder into the very home where their story continues to grow—and I’m so grateful to have been there to document this special chapter.

Ivan and Komal in Kangaroo Valley

What began as a planned wedding turned into something just as meaningful — a beautifully intimate couples shoot for Komal and Ivan. Set against the stunning backdrop of La Belle Vallée Farm Escape, their day was nothing short of magical.

Perched on 60 acres of pristine land overlooking the charming village of Kangaroo Valley, La Belle Vallée offers a quiet kind of luxury. Thoughtfully designed to embrace 270 degrees of uninterrupted views, the home invites nature right into its heart — the perfect canvas for Komal and Ivan’s story.

Though the celebration shifted from a wedding to a couples shoot, the emotion, love, and connection between them remained untouched. As the sun lit up the valley and soft winds moved through the hills, Komal and Ivan embraced the moment with grace and warmth.

Every photo captures not only their bond but also the peaceful energy of the landscape around them — rolling hills, endless skies, and the quiet magic of the valley. Their story, though different than planned, unfolded in a way that felt entirely true to them.

Sometimes, the most beautiful memories are born when we let go of the plan — and simply live in the moment.

The Brown Family

I recently had the joy of photographing the Brown family in their cozy home at Greenwell Point. With three kids now filling their space with laughter and love, the newest addition, Archie, arrived on July 26th, bringing even more warmth to their lives.

Archie’s big brother Cooper and big sister Lara were beaming with excitement, making the family portraits truly heartwarming. There’s something incredibly special about capturing these moments in the very house their dad built—a true labor of love for their growing family.

Being able to witness and document this beautiful chapter for the Browns reminded me how much a home is more than just walls; it’s where memories are made. Congratulations to the Browns on their wonderful new beginning as a family of five.

The Hartigan Family at Moona Moona

Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of photographing Katie, Jonathan, and their son Jude at the beautiful Moona Moona Creek and Huskisson Beach. As returning clients, it’s always a joy to capture new memories for them as a little family on the South Coast. The afternoon light was soft and golden, and the beach provided the perfect spot for Jude to unwind and play while we snapped some relaxed, heartfelt moments. It’s sessions like these that remind me how special it is to document growing families in places they love.

On the 12th of July, Amanda and Michael tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at the picturesque Camden Valley Inn. Nestled on five acres of beautiful countryside, this venue offered the perfect backdrop for their special day, infusing it with a warm and rustic country charm.

Once a humble local community milkbar back in 1939, Camden Valley Inn has since blossomed into a premier country escape. Its rich history and scenic surroundings made it an ideal spot for Amanda and Michael’s small, heartfelt celebration — a day filled with love, laughter, and the timeless beauty of the countryside.

With only their closest loved ones present, the celebration was small and deeply personal. Surrounded by sweeping, elevated views and the peaceful seclusion of nature, Sky Ridge provided the perfect backdrop for their vows.

The house itself brought a serious wow factor. Its striking industrial style and dramatic architectural design gave the celebration a unique and modern edge, a true testament to the visible hand of a bold architect. The reception took place inside, where the space transformed into an effortlessly stylish gathering filled with warmth, laughter, and love.

Leah and Chris’s engagement session at Seven Mile Beach in Gerroa was nothing short of magical.

The natural beauty of the beach—endless sand, gentle waves, and open sky—provided the perfect backdrop for their love story to unfold. As they strolled hand-in-hand along the shore, it was clear this pre-wedding shoot wasn’t just about capturing photos—it was about freezing in time the joy, anticipation, and tenderness that marks the beginning of their forever.

Simon and Sheridan's Woods Farm Wedding

On the 28th of June, Simon and Sheridan tied the knot in a celebration as vibrant and unique as they are. Set against the stunning backdrop of The Woods Farm in Jervis Bay, their wedding blended rustic charm with personal flair, turning the venue into a vivid tapestry of love, laughter, and a touch of metal.

The day began with the couple getting ready in two of the farm’s most iconic locations; Sheridan in the whimsical Lake House, surrounded by her bridal party and the soft light filtering through the trees, while Simon prepped with his groomsmen in the rustic Hen House. With a big bridal party by their side, the couple had energetic excitement surrounding them!

The ceremony took place in the Bush Chapel, a magical setting nestled under the canopy of native trees. Surrounded by colourful blooms, close friends, and the sounds of nature, the couple said “I do” in a moment that felt like something out of a fairytale, with a metal soundtrack twist, of course.

Post-ceremony, the property became the perfect playground for portraits. From the friendly farm animals and the charming old firetruck to the winding bush trails, every corner of The Woods Farm offered a chance to capture Simon and Sheridan's connection in all its raw, joyful energy.

From heartfelt vows to headbanging tunes, their day was a beautiful collision of love and personality. A wedding to remember, just like the couple themselves.
