Blue Mountains Family Photographer
Real moments, Beautifully Captured
Natural family photography across the Blue Mountains
You’ll never regret having the photos.
For families who know these years don’t last as long as they feel.
Maybe you're here because you're expecting your first baby. Maybe your kids suddenly don't look quite as little as they did last year. Or maybe it's just been way too long since you were all in a photo together.
My sessions are relaxed and easy. You don't need kids who sit still, a perfectly coordinated wardrobe or any idea what to do in front of the camera. I'll help with all of that.
I want you to leave thinking, that was actually fun — and come back a year or two later when everyone's a little bigger.
You’ll never regret having the photos.
Hey, I’m Emilie
I'm not here to make your family look perfect.
I'm here to make photos that actually feel like you.
I work at a pace that suits your family, creating a fun and comfortable atmosphere where genuine emotion shines through.
Whether you’re a family of three or a bustling crew of cousins, I’ll help make the experience enjoyable from start to finish.
I want you to walk away with a gallery of photos you'll print, put on your walls and be really glad you took the time to have.

Client Reviews
“We absolutely loved having Emilie capture our maternity and newborn photos! 🤍 She made us feel so comfortable and was so patient and gentle with our little ones. The photos are absolutely beautiful and captured such a special time in our lives perfectly. We will treasure these memories forever and couldn’t recommend Emilie highly enough!”
— Shannon T“Emilie did a family photoshoot with my husband, Mum and 7 month old daughter. Her communication, advice and knowledge of good local areas for the aesthetic we were looking for was excellent. The day of the photoshoot was hot and humid, but Emilie's natural ability to make people comfortable had us all smiling (even my often shy daughter). The photos were edited quickly and were just perfect.”
— Jessica F“Em is so warm as she guides you beautifully through the sessions and knows exactly how to get the best out you and also out of the little ones without feeling like it's staged. The photos Em has captured for me and my family over the years are my most prized possession and I cannot wait to book my next session with her.”

-
My sessions are relaxed, natural and centred around your family. I’ll give you gentle direction when needed, but there’s no pressure to pose perfectly or have everyone looking at the camera.
I want you to spend time together, play with your kids, cuddle your baby, walk, chat and just be yourselves. I’ll be there to capture all the little moments in between.
-
If you have a particular vision in mind, I'm happy to help you find the right spot to bring it to life. If you're not sure, I'll suggest locations based on your family, your kids' ages and what you want your photos to feel like — whether that's water, bush, open space or something with an epic view.
-
It really doesn't need to be.
I'm not looking for a perfectly styled or spotless house. I'm looking for good light, little pockets of your home where you naturally spend time and the things that make your home yours.
A quick tidy of the spaces you'd like photographed is helpful, but please don't spend the whole morning cleaning for me.
-
That's completely okay — they don't have to!
I don't expect kids to sit still, smile on cue or cooperate for an hour. We’ll hang out, play, explore and let them be themselves. I’ll work with their personality and capture the moments as they happen.
Sometimes the photos you weren't trying to get end up being your favourites.
-
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and like yourself.
I'll send you a detailed preparation guide with tips for choosing outfits, colours and textures that photograph beautifully without everyone looking overly matched.
-
I’m not interested in clicking the camera a million times and making you pose for an hour.
We hang out, we chat, I get to know you and your kids, and I let you guys do your thing. I’ll give you a little direction when it’s needed, but mostly I’m there to watch, wait and capture the moments as they happen.
I capture families exactly how I’d want mine captured: honestly, naturally and with all the little moments in between.

The Blue Mountains
the perfect backdrop to your family photos
Most family sessions take place outdoors at a stunning local spot – whether that’s the golden afternoon light of Wentworth Falls Lake, the sweeping views from Govetts Leap from cliff tops, or the charming streets of Leura.
I’ll guide you to places that feel right for your family, while encouraging moments that unfold naturally.
Think tickle fights, warm hugs, and those quiet in-between moments that show your family’s personality.
Family life is full of moments worth remembering – the big milestones, the everyday adventures, and everything in between.
If you’re looking for a family photographer in the Blue Mountains who blends genuine connection with stunning backdrops, I’d love to tell your family’s story.
