I am a birth, pregnancy, newborn and family photographer and have been for over five years. I am based in Brisbane and service surrounding areas including Gold Coast, Ipswich and Sunshine Coast.

I am a mother of three, my eldest had a peaceful Birth Centre birth, and my younger two were born at home. I have photographed births at home, in birth centres and hospitals.

While I have no formal qualifications in midwifery or childbirth education, I have read hundreds of birth stories and many books, supported friends through their decision-making and continue to learn daily about the magic of birth. I have been where you are, I have hand picked my birth teams, had my children present, gone deep within myself and birthed my babies in my safe space: home. I have been shown respect and honour in the birth space and I show the same to my clients. The joy of photographing births for me lies in capturing you and your family: the love between parents, the support of caregivers, the mesmerised siblings, the power of a birthing mother, the stillness in between and the wonder of a new baby.
