Hi, I’m Lu

I’m a photographer who loves to document the everyday because I believe there’s visual magic in even the most mundane of scenarios.

LET’S TALK “FAMILY”

Family is a feeling, not a formula.

It’s the people who make you feel seen, loved, and supported—whether they’re connected to you by blood or through friendships. Families come in all shapes and sizes: big, small, chosen, or born into. They include extended families, couples without kids, unique structures and one-of-a-kind dynamics that defy traditional definitions.

At its core, family is about connection. It’s shared laughter, inside jokes, everyday rituals and the unwavering sense of belonging.

No matter what your family looks like, it’s worth celebrating, documenting, and cherishing—because it’s uniquely yours.

LIFE BETWEEN LAUNDRY

mini home sessions

Home sessions are my absolute fave and Life Between Laundry is my version of a Mini Session!

The beauty of a photography session at home is that everyone can be themselves. Without the pressures of a studio or unfamiliar setting, you’re free to relax and let your unique personalities shine. Your home provides an endless array of props and activities, from the books you’ve read a dozen times to the cozy blankets that have seen countless movie nights. This makes every session completely personal, super candid and full of genuine fun.

Whether it’s brewing tea in the kitchen, sitting on the front porch, tending to the garden, dancing like nobody’s watching in the living room, or showcasing your favourite hobbies—these are the moments that tell your story. They’re simple, heartfelt, and perfectly you. Documenting life as it’s lived in your own space creates memories you’ll treasure forever. So let’s embrace the beauty in the ordinary—because life, even between laundry loads, is worth capturing.

FAQs

  • Once you have reached out HERE, we will confirm date/time and I will send you access to your client dashboard.

    It's through this dashboard I send an invoice for the retainer fee and contract for my services. I also send you a client questionnaire that helps me get extra prepared for our time together.

    The 50% retainer is to secure your shoot date/time. This retainer fee is due 48 hours from date of invoice.

    The remaining 50% is due once your gallery is finished. Images won't be released until this payment is made.

  • Galleries are delivered digitally 3-4 weeks after your session.

    If you require a quicker turn around, let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate.

  • No - I'll keep a small eye on the time but sessions times are approximate to accommodate for pauses and breaks to keep everybody comfortable.

    There is often a warming up period for younger kids, so we will take our time to overcome any nerves/big feelings they might be going through.

    Things like this are never deducted from your session time.

  • I offer midweek and weekend sessions, and mostly try to work with my clients to find the ideal time for them and their family.

  • That's okay. Most people are and the good news is; we will do very little posing especially if we have planned an activity... which I highly recommend! Giving everybody something to do not only creates authentic candid moments, but it takes the pressure of having to pose and smile.

    Pick something you love to do as a family and you'll all be smiling naturally!

    Examples for an outdoor session: have a picnic, get an ice cream, kick the footy, play beach cricket.

    Examples for a home session: bake a cake, play tag in the backyard, read books on the verandah, put the kettle on.

    I will ask you to look at the camera and encourage you to stand/sit together but mostly, we will be capturing the real stuff. Those delicious candid moments.

    And it's my job to find those!

    Sometimes I like to give PROMPTS not poses to encourage natural engagement:

    • Give Mum a big kiss!

    • I think dad wants a big cuddle.

    • Look at each other then and look to the kids.

    • How about you ride your bike around mum and dad while they cuddle your brother!

    If you have any special games you like to play or family jokes, we can include those too.

    We will keep things moving along to capture true, authentic moments between you and your loved ones.

  • I'm happy to give you tips on what to wear but no, I do not offer a client wardrobe because I want you to look back at these images and see yourself and your beautiful family. As you are, in your own clothing, feeling as comfortable in your skin as possible!

  • I always keep in touch with clients in the days preceding the session with an update about the weather.

    Anything from cloudy to sunny is perfect for our session but if rain is forecast; we will have to reschedule.

  • Of course. I offer all clients the option to keep their gallery private!

    I understand the importance of privacy, especially when kids are involved.

  • Sunspell in an inclusive business that celebrates diversity!

    All types of family structures/dynamics are welcome here.
