A day with Luisa Brimble

Last Saturday I was lucky enough to spend a day with the incredible Luisa Brimble. Photography aside, Luisa is one of the kindest, most down-to-earth human beings I have ever had the privilege of meeting.

By the time I finally got to the very (like, seriously.. VERY) crowded Paramount Coffee Project in Surry Hills, I was giddy with excitement. Within minutes I caught sight of the pint-sized, unassuming lady. She gave me the biggest bear hug and from there, it felt very natural, and very easy. She taught me things from controlling my ISO to trusting myself.

Suffice it to say, I am struggling to cull photos for this post. Thank you to The Local Harvest Collective and Pasta Emilia.

Warning: A LOT of food was involved. So. Much. Food.

I left feeling so inspired! For the most part I couldn't believe these were photos I'D taken. They're probably the best ones I've ever taken (in my opinion, anyway). I am so grateful to Luisa for sharing her knowledge. 

While I am absolutely buzzing to "collaborate, collaborate, collaborate", I am looking forward to the next two months of rest and holiday.

The Andrews + bump

This is my first time behind the camera at a maternity shoot and I loved it! Pregnant mamas look phenomenal and the entire journey that is carrying a child is just beautiful. I feel very blessed to have captured this precious time in Katherine's life, a few weeks before the arrival of her third child.

Jackie + Vinny

One lovely autumn afternoon, I caught up with a new friend and her darling baby girl, Vinny. We chatted over cups of tea and chocolate and I took a few photos. She (almost) made me clucky enough for number two..

That gassy smile is just, everything.

P.S. Apologies for the overload.. I’m still learning to cull photos and pick the best ones to show instead of showing so many.
