birth photography

It is a very big honor to be hired to shoot a birth. Another one of my favorite types of photography!! (maybe i love them all!?!)

This birth was amazing to shoot, I cried and cried just so beautiful to see such an amazing woman give birth to her long wanted baby. Here is little Grace’s pretty amazing arrival. I got to the hospital at 5pm and she was out and being snuggled at 5.50!

Thank you so much Dani for letting me capture these moments and for letting me share them here.

No more words… just pictures…

Pregnant photos – Esther and Tim

I have had the pleasure of photographing the Downie family for a few years now. Esther is addicted to photos as much as me!

Such a delight to watch the family grow, change and now make room for another little somebody. Really looking forward to meeting this one and I am booked to cover the birth, I can’t wait!

You can see how cute their kids are here and check out their cafe and catering company, In a Pickle. (I did some staff profile pics for them here)

Now onto the photos!

Family portrait

This little family are delightful. So much warm connection between Seth and his gorgeous parents, Kelly and Ross.

Seth is just 7mths, super cute and with the best baby head of hair!!
We shot this selection of images at Orleigh Park in West End (my favourite place in Brisbane!!)

Kelly has been very patient with these shots so I won’t delay any longer with chatter!!

Family portrait fun!

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing this lovely little family on Mothers DAY.

We shot in a park I have never been before and it was packed!! Super fun park and I highly recommend it!

Brisbane Riverside Park in Seventeen Miles Rocks. Go check it out!

It was a delight to follow Paul, Kim and little Sarah around.

First up lets celebrate this motherhood connection! I love these kind of sweet moments shared. Happy Mothers DAY Kim!

Cute little family.

A few months back my brother and his lovely little family visited from their home in the U.S. We had so much fun hanging out with them and their most gorgeous kids. My girls just loved having cousins around, especially Abigail!! So jammed pack full of character!!

Here are a few images from a little session at the park.

I love this one!! She has fantastic eyes and expressions…. super duper cheeky though!! This is when she called me a POOT!

My brother Isaac, really loves to do fun wild things with his kids… you have no idea how photographing this made me feel sick!!  (also i think she looks like DORA the explorer here!!)

oh dear… we miss them!!

Bump to Baby!

My younger sister Georgia has just recently had a baby girl!! She had the cutest belly and we did manage some great photos of her before little Priya made her debut. I also got to photograph the birth!! Amazing experience and so much joy! I love my job and being part of families lives like this is such an honour!

First up tummy!

Now my darling new niece! She really is an angel! She is only 10 days old and we already adore her!!
