Hey there! I’m Caroline
YOUR NEW FAV PHOTOGRAPHER
With nearly two decades of experience, I specialise in capturing genuine connection and emotion through relaxed, natural portrait sessions.

“Caroline is an incredible photographer. So professional and yet has such a bubbly, loveable personality that makes you feel so relaxed in front of the camera. She had her work cut out for her with our tribe – 2 grumpy toddlers and a kid with hay fever. Nevertheless we had so many laughs and fun during the shoot and the final products were more then we could ever hope for. She captured the most gorgeous photos of our girls along with some great action shots.
Her communication made the process easy. Her presentation of the final photos was such a memorable experience and she used all her skills and talents to guide us in choosing the photos that would work well for what we envisaged to have on display. Timeless keepsakes that means so much to us. We can’t wait to have Caroline capture more precious memories of our family.”

“Caroline did an outstanding job with our newborn and family shoot. We instantly felt comfortable as she provides a relaxed yet professional environment. She is very patient and at ease with new babies, and worked quickly to ensure she captured the moment before baby was over it.
The finished products were absolutely gorgeous! Her eye for composition is second to none. To have such precious and beautiful photo’s for us to treasure for a lifetime is priceless. I highly recommend Caroline if you are looking for a talented, creative and professional photographer.”
