capture the connection
Life Sessions
Maternity • Motherhood • Family
Pregnancy, the universal power of love forever etched in your heart.
Maternity sessions are always photographed intertwined with Mother Nature, the feminine landscape embraced by the elements.
If you are expecting your first child and your partner will be joining we'll capture these moments first then the maternity portraits.
This is also how we'll photograph the session if this is an additional babe and your family is joining.
These sessions have been created for you to take a moment to breathe in deep and be connected to your child.
Life can get so busy, this is a moment to stop and simply be and feel the warmth of life before your baby comes earth side.
Family photography, our connection to each other.
Family & Motherhood Sessions can be outdoors or indoors, pre consultations are included in each package.
Together we can create imagery that'll truly reflects you and your family, this can take place in a location of your choose or at a
local recommended location.
You'll also receive a style guide, I love putting together outfits so spam me with all your ideas!
My focus is to capture your family as well as individual personalities to create imagery that is timeless in the sense it truly captured a feeling in time.
These Life Sessions are about keeping the tradition of family albums, but from an authentic point of view and with an empathetic heart.

After losing my second son to genetic complications and having my own photos taken by Heartfelt, I became apart of the Heartfelt Organisation in 2018. If you or someone you know are facing loss, you can get in touch with Heartfelt to have your own photographic memories made.
Heartfelt is a volunteer organisation of professional photographers dedicated to giving the gift of photographic memories to families who have experienced stillbirth or have children with serious or life threatening illness.
