Natural Family Photography in Lake Macquarie & Newcastle
Why Natural Family Photography?
I'm not about staged perfection. I’m about real connection.
The way your toddler runs into your arms when they’re excited. The way your teenager still sneaks you a smile when they think no one’s looking. The way your family laughs together at an inside joke. That's the stuff that matters. That's what I capture.
Living in Lake Macquarie and working all over Newcastle, I know the perfect pockets of nature and light to frame these moments in a way that feels effortless — beaches, bushland, lakesides, backyards, you name it. There's no right or wrong location. It's about what feels like you.

What It’s Like Working Together
I keep it simple. I keep it real. And I promise — it’s easier than you think.
When we meet for your family photos, there’s no pressure to "perform." I’ll gently guide you with little prompts, not stiff posing. We’ll play, chat, move around, and let the real moments unfold naturally. I’ll help you relax (even if you think you’re awkward in front of a camera — you're not, I promise).
Most of the time, you’ll forget I’m even there — and that’s when the magic happens.
Sessions usually take about 45 minutes to an hour — short, sweet, and full of heart.
Your family’s story deserves more than a few quick snapshots — it deserves a collection of memories that feel like home. Whether it’s barefoot giggles on the beach, sandy kisses at sunset, or cuddles on your favourite couch, these moments are a chapter you’ll never want to forget. I’m here to capture it all with heart, patience, and a little bit of creative magic. If you’re dreaming of relaxed, honest family photography around Lake Macquarie, Newcastle, or beyond, I would be honoured to help tell your story.
