Hi, my name is Gill
And I have been capturing the special moments in peoples lives with genuine and natural photography, for more than 10 years here in Melbourne.
Before we dive in, let me introduce myself.
I live in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne with my husband, our 2 kids and our 2 dogs. I genuinely love being with my family. When I’m not photographing clients, I’m documenting our everyday moments, just like the ones I hope to capture for you.
Motherhood is my muse
Okay, let’s be real for a minute. My kids absolutely push my buttons and some days are tiring. Buuuuut, they’re also my biggest motivation to create beautiful imagery for my clients. They’re my reminder that time is fleeting and they’re always growing and changing.
This is what pushes me to capture memories for others, whether it be at their wedding, a family shoot, a newborn shoot or a maternity shoot, in the area of Melbourne.
It’s the little moments that matter
Before I studied photography many years ago, I studied professional writing. I’m so glad I did because I use these skills in each of my sessions. That foundation in storytelling is invaluable and helps me to tell beautiful stories through imagery.
Your Story
Because my photography is all ABOUT telling a story
It’s about capturing the important moments in your life and the details that make it so special, within that moment.
I take a lifestyle approach to my photography, and I keep it natural and honest at every shoot. You can always expect bad jokes, fun, conversation and a lot of laughter with me, so the atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable as I capture the “real” you.
I work with natural light to ensure every image is beautifully lit, and I help you find the joy and connection on the day.
If necessary, I provide guidance to ensure you get the best out of your session, however my shoots are otherwise unposed. This allows me to capture more relaxed and natural images.
Your experience
Not sure what to expect?
Not everyone feels comfortable in front of the camera and that’s completely okay.
I totally understand; given the choice, I’d always rather be behind the lens than in front of it myself.
During my sessions, we chat, laugh, and take things at a relaxed pace. Before long, the camera becomes an afterthought and that’s when the real magic happens.
I create images that you want to hang on the walls of your Melbourne home.
I create images that will make you feel all the feels. And images that will make you smile every time you pass them. I capture the moments that you never want to forget and I can’t wait to capture yours.
I am so looking forward to working with you.
