I could not be happier with the photos that I received back from Steph for my 60th Birthday. They were everything I could have hoped for and more.

Engagement Photography
We hired Stephanie for our engagement photo shoot. She was fantastic all the way through, even offered up ideas I needed to consider to make the event run smoothly.

Stephanie did a great job shooting my 30th birthday dinner. Was very kind, flexible and her photos came out incredible. She was lovely to all guests and I would happily have her shoot another event for me in future

Q&As
Understanding light and how it affects the subject is a key element in becoming a better photographer. Light will make or break your images. Always be yourself and don't be shy. Photos come out so much better when you are naturally happy and your emotions are not forced.
The details of your photoshoot - when, where, why - Style of photography you are interested in. Send me inspiration.
Getting to meet new faces and creating happy memories for people that will last them a lifetime.
My passion for photography comes from my great grandfather. He left behind one of his old film cameras before he passed away and I was always intrigued with how to use and operate it from a young age. Over the years of growing up, I always knew I wanted to be a photographer and capture happy memories that people can hold close to their hearts. A photo is a moment captured in time and I love knowing that. I started my own business back in 2018 after I graduated my Bachelor of Photography. My husband inspired me to get back into photography recently after we got married, I have now broadened my services up for wedding photography and engagements which I am so excited about.
A photo can hold deep emotional significance. I am here to capture a moment that evokes strong memories, emotions and connections with people we love. I am a very bubbly person. I am easy come, easy go. It will be like hanging out with a friend and you will forget I am even there with my camera taking happy snaps of you.
No, I do not provided services online or remotely. I have to meet up with you face to face in order to take your photography.
I am happy to always keep distance away from you if need be. I always carry hand sanitiser with me and I am a clean freak haha. Happy to also wear a face mask if needed.
