Autumn in the Dandenongs – The Weeks Family

Apr 10, 2021

Meet the Weeks Family. Autumn in the Dandenongs is spectacular, so what a perfect time to capture some family photos, surrounded by all that vibrant colour.

This beautiful family picked daisies and explored the forest amidst golden rays of light.

Would you like to book a family session?

My approach is laid back, go with the flow and no pressure. I want to capture those authentic moments, those little glimpses we get each day that are often over before we have a chance to appreciate them. The process is relaxed and enjoyable, and you’ll have photos of your family that keep those moments alive long after they’re over.

If this sounds like the type of experience you’d like for your family, I’d love to hear from you.

Hi, I'm Emily

You want a maternity session that feels intimate a

You want a maternity session that feels intimate and emotive, capturing this incredible moment in time where you and your baby inhabit the same space. But you also want it to be fun and joyful and include the love you feel for your wild toddler and the most amazing father to your children.

I can help with that! 🙋🏼‍♀️

My maternity sessions are flexible and low pressure. I take time to incorporate the various types of images you’re hoping to have as keepsakes from this fleeting stage of life. I have a questionnaire where I get you to dive deep and share the types of things you’re wanting to remember most about this time so that I can make images that encapsulate all of that!

If you’re expecting and this sounds like the kind of maternity session you’re looking for I’d love to chat! 💕

IMPORTANT message for the mummas 👇🏼 I’m a

IMPORTANT message for the mummas 👇🏼

I’m a mum too, I know the feeling of not recognising yourself in the mirror anymore. Of being so self conscious that the very last thing I’d want to do is step in front of a camera. I get it! Truly!!

But here’s the wonderful truth… you are profoundly beautiful! Maybe not in the same way you were years ago, and maybe not in a way that you’re able to recognise right now. But look at the way your little loves gaze at you! In their world, you’re the most stunning and remarkable woman!

You are worthy, just as you are, and you deserve to be in the photos with your babies!

And when you choose to be brave, embracing your beauty even when you may not feel it, you’re gifting your family something truly precious. Those photos, showing you as you are now, are a gift to their future selves. And, hopefully, a gift to you too!

Sometimes it’s in the stepping out with courage that our eyes are unveiled of the years of societal pressures and ingrained standards we measure ourselves by. Sometimes seeing ourselves in photos with people who look at us like we’re radiant help us to see that in fact, we are. 💕

Any parent will be familiar with that feeling that time is slipping through your fingers and your little one is getting less and less little with every passing moment.
That feeling that you just want time to pause, or to capture a moment in a jar before it’s gone.

I may not hold the secrets to time travel, but I can create images of your family that will spark memories of emotions, connections and sensations. I’d love to create some images like that for your family!

Romanticise your life! It’s a phrase that’s

Romanticise your life!

It’s a phrase that’s thrown around a bit in this industry, but what does it mean and is it the right kind of session for you?

To me, it’s about capturing the essence of the very best moments. Not necessarily the huge, life altering moments, but that feeling you get sometimes as a parent that makes your insides swell with joy and love. Those moments where you’re reminded just how incredibly lucky you are to be ‘mama’ to your little people.

Sometimes it can be as simple of the feeling of their marshmallowy skin against yours or the smell of their breath as they sleep, nestled into you, their safest place.

Those are the feelings I want to capture in my work for you. And I know, traipsing across the beach at sunset wearing a long, flowy gown isn’t even close to the everyday for you and your family. And if you want your everyday life documented there are some incredibly talented photographers who do just that and do it beautifully.

But my work is about taking you out of your everyday, doing something different and special and giving yourself this dedicated time to create moments of that overwhelming love. To give you the time and space where you get to feel like your life is a movie. And to have photos that can remind you of those feelings for years to come.
