I grew up dreaming of being a pro surfer or a model —and I always knew I’d be a mum.

As a teen, I spent hours posing with friends and snapping photos on my mum’s flip phone, until I realised modelling meant giving up chocolate (so, nope). Luckily, I discovered I loved being behind the camera just as much.

 

I studied photography in high school, was gifted my first ‘real’ camera, and never looked back. Guiding and posing people has always been my thing, so you can expect plenty of direction during your session.

And the surfing dream? These days it’s mostly Arnhem Land waves and the occasional cyclone swell—but it’s still enough to keep my ocean soul happy.

Hi I'm Jamie!

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me teaching swim lessons or off adventuring with my three little humans.

We’re an outdoorsy family through and through, and with two fishing-obsessed boys, life tends to revolve around the boat, the bush and the beach — our absolute happy place.

And don’t be fooled by that gorgeous photo of me and the kids… it took a few hundred shots to get there. My little ones are definitely not the “smile and look at the camera” type. So, when I say I have endless patience, I mean it. Chaos, wild toddlers, kids who want absolutely nothing to do with the camera and meltdowns mid-session — none of it phases me.

I’m here for all of it. Bring me the beautiful chaos of your little tribe, those sweet newborn cuddles or that gorgeous baby bump, and let’s create something you’ll love forever.
