I like to say that photography is in my bones. It resonates so deeply and instinctually with me that I feel like it has been tied to my identity for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my beautiful Mum captured everything - every big moment, every small moment, every milestone, every holiday, birthday, school event, even the boring, ordinary moments that, I’ll be honest, probably didn’t need to be captured. But she got it all, with over 100 real, beautiful, actual photo albums to show for it. She injected this same need to capture it all into me, probably without even realising it.
So that was me - the friend in high school who was always the first to whip out the phone for the 10th selfie, the sister who won’t let you eat your meal until I’d snapped a pic for the gram first, the wife who instinctively pulls out the camera any time my husband, son or dog are doing something cute (which to my husbands annoyance is…highly frequently). I’m the one who takes photos like it’s second nature, from the mundane - my morning coffee steaming in the sunlight on the kitchen bench, to the important - the details of my son every month for the first year of his life. Photography is my life and the photos bring me so much joy that it was only natural that I craved being able to do this for other families too.
My work is for families who want more than just a photo. For those not looking for stiff poses but rather something that makes them feel. For those who want imagery that is heartfelt, calm, and personal - the kind that will make you look back and breathe in the flood of emotion framed in that image, even a decade from now.
With over 10 years in the industry, 7 of those focusing on newborns, I’ve learned that the magic lives in the unscripted - the little hand squeezes, the tiny toe kisses, the way your baby fits in your arms right now. My sessions are relaxed and gently guided, always with a focus on connection over perfection, and the kind of beauty that unfolds naturally. In my studio, you're given space to just be.
In the beautiful suburb of Whittlesea, my studio sits just steps from home. A once-empty shed lovingly transformed by my husband into the soft, light-filled space it is today. And let me tell you, I didn’t make it easy for him, asking for a pitched ceiling and the windows to be placed just so, every request or change he obliged me. (Thank you my love, my studio is a love letter I cherish more deeply than you might realise). My space is something I am so proud of, a dream of 10+ years having come to fruition. It’s calm, warm, and catches the kind of soft natural light that makes you breathe a little slower, sink in to the moment a little deeper. A sanctuary made for slow moments, gentle connections and love.
Photography should make you feel - honest, heartfelt, connected and true to you.
If you’re the kind of person who tears up over tiny socks, hangs onto handwritten birthday cards, keeps every scribbled drawing and believes that the things worth remembering are found in the small stuff too… well, we’ll get along just fine.
It would be my privilege to have you in front of my lens.
xx, Tiff
