Adventurous family photographer based on the NSW South Coast, available Australia wide.

Heartfelt stories of love and adventure

Hi, I’m Laani!

I’m a photographer based on the stunning South Coast of NSW. I want you to look at your family photos and think ‘wow, we look so happy, no one looks pissed off and I actually really like how my neck looks’. I capture candid, real moments in my favourite locations around Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, and throughout the Illawarra.

I’m a mum of two crazy kids, so I know how to keep things relaxed and fun during our sessions, you will feel comfortable and confident and most people say they forget we were even taking photos.

I started my photography journey hiking through nature, and now I bring that love for the outdoors into family and lifestyle photography.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me adventuring with my kids, camping by the beach, or enjoying a glass of pinot by the campfire.

If you love the beach, country drives and family adventures, I’m the photographer for you.

“It could not have been a better experience. We actually enjoyed ourselves, you captured us as a couple. Jimmy genuinely enjoyed himself getting photos taken which is UNHEARD of. The way that you were able to get a preview to us so quickly was fantastic. Your comments on the day made me feel beautiful and comfortable to do things outside of my comfort zone, like be in a photo! I am SO glad we captured this moment because these are photos I will cherish forever. Everything you touch turns to gold, you are one talented lady. Thank you”
