I'm a big kid at heart...
AND THAT'S MY SECRET WEAPON
​
I don't need your kids to "behave" or sit still or say cheese on command.
I just need them to play. To explore. To be exactly who they are.
Because here's what I know after photographing hundreds of Sutherland Shire families:
Real kids having real fun create the most beautiful photos.
What I offer
Choose your session type below to learn more
Let’s forget the “say cheese” moments.
​
I’ll guide you into natural interactions so you can laugh, play, explore, and just be yourselves while I capture it all.
​
Your baby is perfect just as they are and that’s exactly how I photograph them. My newborn sessions are baby-led and relaxed, so you can simply enjoy those first few weeks without worrying about anything else.
​
Beautiful Motherhood photography that celebrates YOU! Step out from behind the camera, beautiful mum. This session is all about celebrating the incredible woman, mother, and heart of your family.
​
The start of your next big chapter and deserves to be remembered. At the beach at sunset, in your home, or surrounded by nature, your maternity session will feel relaxed and all about you.

Kind Words
Hey, I'm Jodie
I’m a Shire mum, born and raised.
These days it’s me and my girl Quinn full on, full of love, and figuring it out together in my single mum era.
​
I know that feeling of always being the one behind the camera. Of looking back through a whole year of photos and wondering where you went.
​
That’s exactly why I do this. To put mums back in the picture, where they belong.
Jodie is the go to Sutherland Shire family photographer for the real families the ones who'd choose muddy puddles over matching outfits, sunrises over sleep-ins, and memories over perfection.
More like hanging out than a photoshoot
Think of it less like a photo session and more like we’re hanging out for an hour.
​
We'll chat and get to know each other, we'll get down on the floor (or the sand) and play with your little ones, and watch how you all are together.
​
I’ll guide you the whole way and suggest things as we go but I’ll never make you do anything that doesn’t feel like you.
​
Most mums tell me they rocked up a bit nervous and left saying it was the highlight of their day a whole hour to just be with their family, no phone, no rushing, no one missing from the picture.
The moments that you wish someone would think to capture of you.
When you find me, this is what we’re really after.
​
You, down on the sand, properly in it with them.
The way your little one looks at you like you’re their whole world because you are.
​
The smile that only shows up when you’re the one playing.
​
The belly laugh. The cuddle. The little in between bits you’d never think to ask someone to photograph.
​
Raw, natural and real you and your babies, exactly as you are together.
