Lauren & Matt {Coffs Harbour Wedding Photographer Nambucca Valla Wedding}

Matt & Lauren were the perfect mix of knowing what they wanted & going with the flow. This made for such a joyous day where they balanced the focus on their own relationship with their love for their daughter, Grace as well as for their beautiful family & friends. Lauren’s bouquet was made up of long stemmed flowers that were handpicked by her clever florist friend, & then individually handed to her by her loved ones. A picturesque beach ceremony, followed by a quick boat trip to a desert island & then back to Eagles Rest for celebrations – the day was windswept perfection.

At home with the Family Williams {Coffs Harbour Lifestyle Family Photographer}

For me this was the perfect afternoon: When a family lets me in to their home & their lives I really have to pinch myself to remember that this is my job. Documenting the beauty in your everyday is my absolute favourite thing to do. The Williams Family upped the ante this particular afternoon by adding margaritas to all this fun & I am now giving serious thought to adding a Compulsory Margaritas clause to my contract. A massive thank you to these beautiful boys & their equally lovely parents for sharing “how they roll” with me. <3

The Family Merrick {Coffs Harbour Photographer}

This is the third time I have documented this growing clan & each time it’s more chaotic & more fun. Ruby showed me the quickest way out to the yard & Leo was just his contented baby self (those arm rolls were really doing it for me <3). Billy & Maya, still very much a big part of the family made sure they had their time in front of the camera too 🙂 Tom & Jodi are taking it all in their stride & most importantly remembering to have a laugh along the way.

Re-visiting families, especially in their homes brings me so much fulfilment as a photographer. My own children love looking at pictures of their baby-selves. This is often in my mind & definitely influences the way I document other children & families, Lxo

The Family Glover {Coffs Harbour Family Photographer}

An afternoon with Harry & his family in the days before he turned one.

Watching this family evolve has been a complete delight. Harry landed in the exact right place & is loved by all who know him within an inch of his life. Although I could have quite happily spent the evening staring into his gorgeous eyes & running my fingers through his silky soft hairs I did manage to squeeze in some portrait making & a whole lot of chatting with Harry, Prue & Jake.

I love our town & the people that make it <3

Abbie & John’s Surprise Wedding {Coffs Harbour Wedding Photographer}

Abbie & John bypassed all the fuss by staging a surprise wedding at their engagement party. Abbie didn’t even tell her hair or makeup artists until they arrived that morning. A whole group photo played the role of distraction while Abbie & her dad strolled down toward John & their celebrant. It was a beautiful relaxed party atmosphere & the sunset was <3
