life update: had a baby!

2024 was year 1 of Mum life for me and I’m loving every second of it.

I will be taking limited bookings in 2025.

My mum is a professional photographer. When I was 14 years old, she let me play with one of her old DSLR cameras.

I sent my friends out into the ocean, wearing old wedding dresses from op shops and took their photo.

I got a whole bunch of drama kids to jump into the air against the sunset and then photoshopped the crap outta them.

I photographed every neighbourhood cat I could see.

And I haven’t really stopped since, but I have refined my style a bit. That being said, I still photograph a lot drama kids, every neighbourhood cat I see, and I’m not opposed to making people wander into the ocean for a photoshoot…

I’m interested in creating peculiar, unique, interesting portraits of people.

I love a brief that starts with “this might sound weird but…”.

I enjoy working with a diverse range of clients including but not limited to neurodivergent, gender diverse and queer people.

While I photograph across many locations, I would like to pay my respects to the Bunerong and the Wawoorung clans of the Kulin nation, whose lands I have the privilege to work from as a home base. I would also like to pay my respect to elders past and present of the Kulin nation and extend my respect to other indigenous people.
