I love shooting family sessions at Terara, NSW because there are so many little spots to let the kids run around while I do my thing. This session was from a couple of weeks ago and was such a nice afternoon.
Cindy and Adam
You might remember this couple from their maternity shoot where Adam proposed to Cindy. I met up with them again a couple of weeks ago to photograph their new son Logan! It is such an honour to spend an hour in the home of new parents with meeting their baby.

Hollie and Greg's Wedding
Hollie and Greg picked Culburra Beach as the perfect spot to say "I do". The two trusted me to capture the day from start to end and were a dream to work with. The highlight for me was the father of the bride's speech, I don't think I have ever laughed so much at a wedding.
Thank you for allowing me to capture your big day, I wish you both a lifetime of happiness!
Piper's Second Birthday Party
Below are the photos from my nieces second birthday party a few weeks ago. The party theme was the Disney movie Coco. The kids were entertained with face painting, pass the parcel and a pinata. The highlight for me was all the Mexican food. Thanks for inviting us to celebrate Pipers birthday!
Vincentia House Build
Congratulations to KNK Builders who were awarded “Best Contract Home $500-$600k” last night at the Ulladulla Civic Centre. I was stoked to get the opportunity to photograph your project to submit to these awards. I look forward to working together on future jobs!
Berry Village Boutique Motel
Over the last few weeks, I have been working with the team at Berry Village Boutique Motel on an exciting new project. I have been photographing the property so they can use the images as marketing material for their accommodation. I have also been photographing different spots around the area which will soon become artwork in the guest rooms.
Surprise Proposal
I was so disappointed when I found out we were expecting rain for Adam and Cindy's maternity shoot because little did Cindy know Adam and I had been planning to photograph his proposal during their session. There was a break in the rain that allowed just enough time for some quick photos and for Adam to pop the question!
Congratulations on your pregnancy and engagement!
Mitch and Madeleine's Wedding
I first met this couple late last year when I photographed their little family at Killalea State Park. Fast forward six months and I had the chance to catch up with them again, this time on their wedding day. The wedding ceremony was held at Rhododendron Gardens in Wollongong. I really like this spot for shooting because unlike similar locations there are many spots out of direct sunlight for taking wedding portraits.
A big congratulations to Mitch and Madeleine on not only their marriage but also on the news that they will be welcoming another baby to the world soon!
Michael and Paula's Wedding
Below are the photos from Michael and Paula's Southern Highlands wedding I captured a few weeks ago. The wedding was held at the Centennial Vineyards in Bowral and it truly was breathtaking. The thing I love about the Southern Highlands is every time I visit the colours in the trees are always so different. Although this wedding was shot on a cooler day there was such warmth in the vineyard.
Gateway Lifestyle Sussex Inlet
I recently photographed the new swimming pool and community hall at Gateway Lifestyle. Gateway Lifestyle is a retirement village located in Sussex Inlet. These photos were taken for the builder Rohan Daley to showcase his work for the project.
Compleat Angler
I recently went back to the Compleat Angler store to shoot some more photos for the family owned and operated business. Since my last visit the team had doubled in size and so had their product range. The photos were taken in store, which is a massive premises on the Princes Highway in South Nowra. The staff at Compleat Angler are so friendly and they each offer so much expertise that there is such value in visiting this shop. Thanks guys for having me back!
Ryan and Lucinda's Wedding
Today I am sharing Ryan and Lucinda's wedding which was held on the 13th of May at Cambewarra Estate Winery. The couple did the sweetest thing before the ceremony, they had photographs taken in rooms right next to each other which I think put them both at ease. I consider myself so lucky to spend my weekends meeting great people and celebrating the biggest occasion of their life. Congratulations Ryan and Lucinda!
The Downes Family
This newborn session was taken at the Downes family home in Numbaa, NSW a couple of weeks ago. Despite the lack of sleep that comes with newborns and baby Charlie being a little upset new parents Marty and Megan couldn't have been easier going or more relaxed!
Mark and Simone's Wedding
I was really excited when I received this wedding booking because I had just started my business and I didn't have any wedding content to show potential clients yet. Simone emailed me after I uploaded a photo of a wedding dress hanging in Apex Park and I'm so glad they were willing to give me a go. Mark and Simone got married at McMaster's Beach on the Central Coast and the day was so much fun.
Congratulations to you both and thanks again for allowing me to be apart of it all!
The Stannard Family
I photographed the Stannard family a few weeks ago in my hometown Sussex Inlet. I wanted the photos to show what a close family they are. I really like shooting lifestyle sessions because everyone seems much more relaxed and the photos are a lot more candid. I was made feel so welcome by this family and I had such a nice time visiting their property.
Marcus and Leah's Wedding
What a perfect South Coast wedding this was! With the wedding ceremony at St Patrick's Catholic Church in Berry, then on to bridal portraits in Jasper's Brush, and capping everything off with a reception in a beautiful marquee and live band at the bride and grooms new home. What an awesome day!
Michael and Kamara's Wedding
It was a real pleasure to be asked to photograph Michael and Kamara's Wollongong wedding. I met the couple a year earlier at their daughter's first birthday cake smash.
The Botanic Gardens is one of my favourite wedding spots in the Illawarra as there is such a vast variety of photo locations to choose from. These are just a few of my favourites from the day!
Landon's First Birthday
A few weeks ago I met up with the Tait family for Landon's first birthday party. The party was held at Wandandian Hall and was such a family-friendly day. Landon's parents, Scott and Bailey, went to so much trouble to make sure the kids had a great time. The kids got to run around playing, have their faces painted and play with the animals in the petting zoo.
The Ivanoff Wedding in Jervis Bay
I thought I would jump on the computer this morning and share Kiara and Alex's wedding. The two married earlier this month with close family and friends. The ceremony was held on Greenfield's Beach in Jervis Bay and the photos were taken in the surrounding national park. It was so easy to capture this couple's fun-loving side!
