About Me

Hi, I’m Emily,
I offer an exclusive session location at our private property, On the Range, just outside of Mackay near Oakenden. It’s my favourite place to shoot, with breathtaking sunsets, mountain ranges as a backdrop, Rhodes grass paddocks… and of course, a few horses and cows to complete the scene.

I absolutely love meeting families and capturing the genuine connections and special bonds shared between loved ones.
I also travel for sessions.
