A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME...
Hey, I’m Bree - new mum, wife, crochet hobbyist, homebody, and someone who feels comfortable in both chaos and quiet.
I’m based in South West Victoria and when I’m not behind the camera or busy with my daughter (which is most of the time), you’ll usually find me at home with a book or simultaneous crochet and scrapbooking projects in hand.
Deep down, I’m actually quite introverted and really value alone time and the calm that comes with it.
At the same time though, I love creativity, movement, emotion, and a little bit of drama - something that definitely stems from my love and background in performing arts.
I’ve always been drawn to storytelling and big feelings, and I think that playful, expressive side of me is why I love connecting with kids. I’m more than happy to be silly, embrace the chaos and let sessions feel relaxed, fun and full of personality.
The quieter side of my personality is what really shapes the way I photograph people.
I notice the little things - the glances, gestures, expressions and moments happening in-between everything else. The way your child reaches for your hand without thinking, the chaos of cuddles, the fleeting moments that might feel ordinary now but become everything later.
Becoming a mum completely deepened the way I see photography. It stopped being about perfection and became about preserving feeling, connection and the season of life you’re in right now.
My approach is relaxed and natural, while still gently guiding where needed to create imagery that feels thoughtful, artful and true to you. I love documenting genuine connection and honest moments, but I also know when to step in and create something a little more intentional and beautifully curated.
More than anything, I want your photographs to feel like you - full of life, emotion and the moments you never want to forget.
MY APPROACH TO PHOTOGRAPHY
FAQs
Do you travel for photoshoots?
Absolutely! I love a drive where I can whip out my car-eoke on the way to you. I do however stick to a free 100km radius from Hamilton, so anything outside of this may require a custom travel quote which we can discuss when you reach out
What if my kids aren't behaving on the day?
You’d be surprised how many beautiful moments come from simply letting kids be kids. If they want to run, we’ll run with them. If they want to hide, we’ll turn it into a game. Some of the most meaningful photographs happen in those unscripted little moments.
Family sessions are relaxed and flexible, with plenty of space for breaks, cuddles, snacks or whatever your little ones might need in the moment. I allow up to 1.5 hours for sessions so there’s never any pressure to rush or force anything.
You don’t need to stress about perfect behaviour or whether the photos will turn out “right” - your job is simply to be present, play, connect and enjoy time with your family while I take care of the rest.
What do we wear for our session?
Once you’ve booked with me, I’ll send through an easy wardrobe guide to help make outfit planning feel simple and stress-free. I’ll guide you towards colours and textures that typically photograph beautifully, and help you avoid a few common no-nos, like large logos, super bright colours or overly busy patterns that can sometimes distract from the connection in your images.
But comfort is always key.
And honestly? If bright colours are your thing, feel free to throw my guide in the bin. Your photos don’t need to fit a certain aesthetic to be meaningful. Sometimes it’s not about looking “perfect” or overly curated. Sometimes it’s simply about documenting you, exactly as you are in this season of life.
