Relaxed and Fun Family Photography Sessions

I’m so glad you’re considering lifestyle photography to document your family’s story. Based in Toowoomba and serving the Darling Downs and South East Queensland, I specialize in creating authentic, heartfelt portraits that reflect the unique connections within your family. Whether you're celebrating a special milestone like a school formal or graduation or simply capturing the beauty of everyday moments, my sessions are designed to bring out what makes your story one-of-a-kind.

Family photography is about so much more than perfectly posed images. It’s about documenting the love, laughter, and natural interactions that make your relationships so special. Whether we’re strolling through one of Toowoomba’s picturesque parks, playing with the kids in your backyard, or soaking up the atmosphere of a favourite family spot, I aim to capture those genuine moments that feel like you. No stiff poses or forced smiles—just the magic of your family, as you are.

Of course, your pets are part of the family, too, and I wouldn’t dream of leaving them out! Including your furry, feathered, or even scaly friends in your session adds a layer of authenticity and warmth that’s impossible to replicate. From playful antics to quiet, loving moments, I’ll capture your pets' personalities and the unique connection you share with them.

For parents-to-be, my maternity photography sessions are all about celebrating the incredible journey to parenthood. This is such a beautiful, transformative time in your life, and I’m here to help you preserve it with images that are as unique as your story. Whether you’re glowing in the golden light of Toowoomba’s countryside or feeling cozy at home, these sessions are tailored to capture your joy and anticipation as you prepare to welcome your little one.

With over 10 years of experience in tourism and marketing, I deeply understand the importance of storytelling through photography. Every session is a collaboration, a chance to create something that feels personal and meaningful. My goal is always to make the experience as relaxed and enjoyable as possible so you can focus on being present while I take care of preserving the memories.

If you’re ready to create images that reflect your family’s unique story, I’d be honoured to help. Based in Toowoomba, I travel across the Darling Downs and South East Queensland to capture moments that matter—whether it’s family portraits, milestones, or the special role your pets play in your life. Let’s connect and bring your vision to life together.

Laurene was great to talk to right from the start, very understanding of what I wanted and went above and beyond to find places that suited what I was wanting for our family photos. Would definitely recommend her.
