Hi, thanks for stopping by!
My name is Natalie and I’m lucky to live in Ocean Grove, on the Bellarine Peninsula.
I’ve been a fulltime newborn and family photographer for over 13 years now, using beautiful natural light in my home studio or utilising our beautiful coast and reserves for my family sessions. I absolutely love being able to spend time with the families who come to see me and celebrate what really does matter most - love and family.
THE FUN STUFF ABOUT ME!
📚 Bookworm at heart — happiest with a novel and an iced matcha.
🎶 Swiftie forever — Taylor is always playing while I edit; I’m a folkore girly at heart.
🌊 Beach wanderer — Ocean Grove is home, and beach walks are my reset button. I LOVE to do a 5k walk. I also love the gym while being hopeless at it!
💖 Big family energy — I’m mum to my now 14 year old son, and my partner and stepkids keep life full of love (and chaos). Add in a ragdoll cat and some collies for good measure!
😊 Calm + chatty mix — I love to get to know everyone!
🤓 Proud nerd — I actually love to study. I have a BA in English Lit and I’m currently getting my cert 3 in Early Childhood Education so I can mix things up in life!
The Serious Side:
🎓 Accredited with the Academy of Newborn Photography — trained in newborn safety and posing.
⛑ Infant First Aid & CPR Certified
📸 13+ Years Experience — hundreds of families photographed in studio and on location.
🏆 Specialised Workshops - trained in newborn posing via experienced, hands on photographers.
🤝 Inclusive Practice — every kind of family, every story, is welcome here.
I would love to hear from you!
“Natalie was absolutely amazing with my girls, a newborn and a 2 year old. As an extremely anxious mum, it was such a relief to immediately feel comfortable handing my tiny baby to her. Natalie is gentle and patient and what I’ve seen of my pictures so far is absolutely amazing! Extremely impressed with my experience and I wouldn’t go anywhere else for photographs!”
