Relaxed and meaningful family photography in Wantirna
Hi there! I’m a Wantirna lifestyle photographer with over ten years of experience telling meaningful family stories through relaxed and heartfelt photography. From documenting the anticipation of new life with maternity photos to preserving the tender early days with newborn photos, I focus on capturing the beauty of real connection. This page is all about celebrating your family story, right here in Wantirna, through genuine, natural family photography sessions.
Before discovering my love for photography, I studied writing and now I bring both passions together, blending the art of storytelling with natural, heartfelt imagery. My approach to capturing beautiful family photos is relaxed, child-led, and focused on turning each session into a fun, pressure-free adventure that captures your family as you truly are. These early years pass in a blur and your children will never be this little again. Let’s celebrate the beautiful chaos of family life and preserve it all, perfectly imperfect and filled with love.
Family photos in Wantirna
With its leafy streets and access to beautiful green spaces like Wantirna Park and the nearby Dandenong Ranges National Park, Wantirna is the perfect setting for relaxed, authentic family photography. Whether we’re out in nature or in the comfort of your home, your session will feel more like a joyful family outing than a photoshoot.
My sessions are all about connection, fun, and letting your children lead the way. I’ll gently guide you when needed, but mostly I’m there to document the little glances, the silly games, the quiet cuddles and everything in between to create family photos that actually feel like you.
Whether your little ones love running through Wantirna Park, exploring hidden corners in your backyard, or simply curling up on the couch at home, we’ll work together to create family photos that reflect your unique dynamic.
Capturing real family moments in Wantirna
The best family photos aren’t about perfection, they’re about personality. That’s why I focus on making sessions fun and engaging for your kids, helping them feel comfortable enough to be their true, playful selves.
Where do your kids come alive? Maybe it’s climbing trees at Wantirna Park, digging in the veggie patch, or dancing in the lounge room surrounded by toys. Wherever they’re happiest, that’s where we’ll create magic, laughter, movement, and connection, captured just as it happens.
No need to wait for the ‘perfect’ moment for your own family photos. There’s beauty in the mess and meaning in the everyday. Let’s preserve the moments that truly matter.
Your Wantirna home is a meaningful space for family photos
Some of my favourite sessions take place inside the family home. Your Wantirna home is where so many of your family’s memories are already unfolding, making it the perfect place for relaxed, family photos. From kitchen baking to living room snuggles, your home tells your story in a way no studio ever could.
Photographing your family in a familiar space allows for genuine, uninterrupted moments and results in images that feel like you. Every home is different, every family is different, and that’s exactly what makes these sessions so special.
Wantirna’s natural beauty makes the perfect backdrop
Wantirna and its surrounds offer some truly stunning locations for outdoor family photography. Whether we’re playing in the wide-open spaces of Wantirna Park, exploring trails in the Dandenong Ranges, or discovering a quiet pocket of green nearby, outdoor sessions are a wonderful way to let your children roam freely and enjoy themselves.
These natural settings bring movement, spontaneity, and magic to your family photos, adding that beautiful backdrop to your already meaningful story.
Let’s capture your Wantirna family, just as you are
As your Wantirna family photographer, my mission is to capture more than just images, I want to tell your story. These family photos are about pausing time and celebrating the small but significant moments that define your life right now.

Don’t wait for everything to be perfect. The truth is, it already is.
