Honest and Artful family photography in Melbourne and the Yarra Valley

What a beautiful evening I spent with this lovely family. The sun was out, it stayed relatively warm and it was so much fun watching this family play and cuddle and explore this stunning location.

This is one of my all time favourite location for sessions in the Yarra Valley, with vast views and plenty of space for kids to run and play.

My absolute favourite part of this session was at the very end when 10 year old Will said "Next time we get family photos, I want to do them with you!" Ummm, cue happy tears! Especially high praise coming from a 10 year old boy.

I absolutely adore building connections with you and your kids so that you all feel comfortable to be yourselves around me. That's the secret of capturing these authentic moments of love and joy.

Scroll on down to see more from this adorable 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.

Hey, I'm Em!

 

I'm a family and newborn photographer in the Yarra Valley and mum to my own 3 babies (only one's an actual baby though, the older two are 15 and 13! How!?)  I am a lover of travel, old things and summer (give me all the tropical, muggy days).  I love realness over perfection, but am somehow also a hopeless romantic. I love helping families to document joy filled memories in a way that feels easy and relaxed.
