My approach to photography combines documentary-style storytelling with a playful essence. I don't want to take the "perfect" photo. For me, the perfect shots are the ones that are candid, unposed, real and in the moment. We don’t do small smiles — only loud laughs, happy tears, and all the emotions.
I’m based in both Forster and Newcastle, but you’ll rarely find me in one spot for long — I’m usually off chasing light and epic love stories around Australia in my van. My dream is to photograph incredible humans in beautiful places all across the country, and I’m always up for an adventure! No matter where you are, I’m available Australia-wide — and yes, I travel to New Zealand for weddings too.
Hello & welcome. I am so glad you're here. I'm a part-time van lifer who is obsessed with the essence of life. I adore meeting new people and telling their stories through my images with an authentic, candid & nostalgic vibe.
I believe I was put on this earth to capture love stories in all the beautiful ways they manifest all across Australia & New Zealand.
"Olivia seamlessly blended into the day, capturing our day the way we wanted without being intrusive at all. We loved how easy and fun getting photographs was. It didn't feel awkward and we didn't feel like we were drawn away from the festivities for too long. We loved her suggestions for poses too."
"Liv is an absolute gem of a photographer! From the moment we met her, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease during our engagement shoot. Liv has a remarkable talent for capturing genuine moments and emotions. We can't recommend her enough, for anyone looking for a photographer who not only produces stunning photos but also creates a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Thank you, Liv, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!"
"Just another thank you because I woke up and saw them again and got emotional. You genuinely don't realise how much more then a photo these are for me. I've fundamentally changed in the past year through so much freaking pain and to see photos of myself that make me feel strong, independent and fierce just is absolutely everything. Makes me have a visual representation that it wasn't all for nothing. Because I don't see the same girl I was 12 months ago in those photos. I see someone new."
