About

Hey I am Nadine

I am a photographer, artist and mother, moving through all three roles at once, as one. Photography isn’t simply what I do, it’s a way of living. I create with curiosity, intention, and a sense of wonder.
My work holds honest storytelling and a touch of beautifully imperfect chaos. When we work together, I’ll listen to your story, it’s an essential part of the process.

You are so talented and I'm so grateful

I found your page and trusted you to photograph this special moment for me. I will forever have these photos to remember my first pregnancy and that’s so special to me. Thank you so much again!!!

I love them."

Liv

It has been the most amazing thing having Nadine document part of my childbearing JOURNEY.

pregnancy, birth and POSTPARTUM. she captured beautiful moments and has such an artistic eye.

My partner and I didn’t realise how much we would treasure the images until we had them.

Frances

"Gosh! thank you so much, Nadine. The images, the storytelling, and our session experience made the whole thing feel so special."

Perri

They are sooo beautiful! Thank you! And thank you also for a beautiful experience. You held the space so well and we loved your confidence in giving directions, it was really helpful and everyone had a great time.


Georgie

"Thank you so much! I have zero regrets reaching out to you and inviting you to our birth. You have an amazing eye and managed to give us privacy while also capturing our most intimate moments. I was so impressed how quickly you got there too! The sneak peak is wonderful and it was so exciting to be able to share those pictures with our family so shortly after birth â€œ
