honest and effortless lifestyle portraits for incredible beings

nothing is more special than the power of photography to capture the intimate, life-affirming moments that connect us as humans — whether it’s your career, engagement, pregnancy, or newborn.

What we do

Hi there! I'm KK, a portrait photographer based in Sydney's inner west. I love capturing real moments and genuine connections through natural and candid portraits of incredible individuals around this vibrant city. 

Photography, to me, is more than just freezing moments in time; it's a profound medium that intertwines our lives and emotions and empowers us to bridge the gaps between us as humans. Whether it's for your career, engagement, pregnancy, or the arrival of a newborn. I'm here to craft beautiful images that tell your story, capturing precious memories that you'll treasure forever. 

My photography style is all about capturing genuine emotions in relaxed and casual settings. I prefer outdoor locations with beautiful natural light and shadow, and I don't mind overcast or lightly rainy days. In fact, such weather conditions can bring out unique bonding chemistry and emotions, making the photo shoot extra special. With my background in art, design, and dance, I aim to infuse artistry in every picture, giving it an editorial touch.

My priority is to make sure that you feel comfortable and your true self throughout the shoot, letting your natural self shine. I'd be honoured to work with you and create a collection of photos you'll treasure forever.

You made us so at ease.

“You made us so at ease from the moment we met. Each frame captured the essence of our relationship and who we are as individuals. We seriously love every single image. Doing a photoshoot with you was one of the best things we did in our pregnancy and we cannot thank you enough from the bottom of our hearts. We now have something we can proudly frame at our home.”

FAQs

What if I’m unwell?

Don't worry; just let us know, and we can always reschedule or work something out that suits you.

What if the weather is not so good?

I enjoy shooting in various settings and even in the rain. Such conditions can bring out unique bonding chemistry and emotions in challenging situations. Overcast or cloudy days can also provide beautiful backdrops for the shoot if they fit your desired vibe. But, we can totally reschedule for another day if that’s not your preference.

What if the little one decides to make an early appearance?

If your little one decides to make an early appearance, don't stress! We can always reschedule your shoot and capture those precious new born moments when you're both ready. Just let us know. We're more than happy to be flexible with you.

What your style of photography session?

I absolutely love taking photos that show case you and your family in your natural element. I don't really go for traditional posing, but yes, candid shots that really capture your personality.

Can I bring my pets to the session?

Absolutely! All pets are welcome :) I have a dog and cat too! We can work on an alternative package if it's more than two animals.  

Do you offer dress to wear & what’s best to wear?

I'm a big believer that everyone is unique in their way. That's why it's important to let your personality and style shine through in your photos. I don't want to tell you what to wear, but I'm happy to give you some tips on how to look and feel your best. So, feel free to express yourself and show off your style! After you make a booking, I'll be here to assist you in figuring out what to wear if needed.

Where’s the best location to shoot?

If you're looking for an outdoor photography session with natural light, you've come to the right place! Whether it's your backyard or a special place close to your heart, I'm happy to capture your special moments at the location of your choice. I've had the pleasure of shooting at nearby parks, cafes, streets, beaches, and even the bush - but I'm always open to suggestions and happy to help you choose a location that best suits you and your family. I can't wait to hear from you!

Do you travel for session?

I am happy to travel up to 20km from 2015, but beyond that, it will be charged at $5 per km.

Do you photograph parties or events?

Event photography is not my focus, but let's discuss it and see if we can come up with alternative packages that suit our schedules.

No worries, feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
