Babies are kind of my thing. I’m a mother and a midwife with thousands of hours experience settling and caring for tiny newborns. Respectful parenting (and adulting) is important to me- I’ll always have your little one’s comfort and safety as my top priority.
I schedule sessions to give us plenty of time to take things gently and give you a chance to relax and enjoy yourself. I’m always adding to my prop collection and client wardrobe and love being able to put something special together just for you.

I have a seven and five year old who live life at top speed, getting up to all kinds of messiness and adventuring, leaving me wondering what on earth I've gotten myself into, before passing out like two little, sleepy angels at night.
My husband works FIFO so the family time we spend together is extra precious.
There's no way I'd get anything done if I didn't have support from my extended family, too. How great are mums when you've got a little one?!

I spent a big chunk of my twenties traveling internationally- I had some amazing experiences including walking El Camino de Santiago in Spain, "glamping" in Botswana and touring the Rocky Mountains in Canada.
Nowadays, I'm more keen on exploring my own country. Australia has so much to offer and sharing my travels with the little ones is a whole new experience.

A long, sandy beach and bare feet and I'm in paradise. :-) The beach is definitely my happy place and I feel so blessed to live in sunny Perth where the beach is never (too) far away.
Yep, that's me :-)

I am so excited to have moved into my studio in late 2021 and to be able to offer sessions there. It's amazing to have everything in one place and to be able to get everything set up for sessions in advance- it's great for my creativity. There's also a comfy place to sit and a cute kitchenette for your tea and coffee needs :-)

My Studio
Leah was fantastic. We did two sessions with her less than a fortnight apart: a maternity and then a newborn lifestyle session. My husband and I aren't super comfortable in front of the camera but Leah made it feel natural and relaxed. The dresses were flattering on my pregnant and then postpartum body and made me feel beautiful!
The final photos were stunning and captured our little family vibe perfectly. The process to select/edit/print was very smooth, with great communication. Can't recommend her highly enough!
Sallie
Hand on heart, Leah’s photography is amazing.
We have used her twice for pregnancy shots and baby shoots and wow the quality is something else.
I highly recommend Leah and have referred her to family and friends.
Farah & Danny
Leah was a gem getting out little one to settle for the whole three hour session and we were stoked with the results.
She does a brilliant job and we couldn’t recommend her enough.
Isabella
Leah was wonderful with our daughters. She produced amazing photos and gave us an extremely enjoyable experience. The quality of the final products is fantastic and presented beautifully - we are so pleased and will definitely be using Leah again.
Donna
Leah took the most adorable photos of our little 8 week old. She had a beautiful gentle nature with our baby and was so patient. The photos we got were a beautiful mix of natural pics and stylised with props.
Laura
Leah is very friendly and professional.
She was very good at guiding how we should pose and was extremely patient with our 16 month old during the photoshoot.
I was very happy with how our photos turned out
Yoki
It was extremely easy to work with Leah. She was very friendly and worked very patiently with my newborn baby.
She replied quickly to my messages and delivered the pictures on time. The photos were amazing and my family loved the pictures.
I would definitely recommend Leah to anyone considering a newborn/family photo shoot.
Steffi
Absolutely loved our experience with Leah!
We did 3 shoots with her - maternity, newborn and sitting shoot.
Leah was amazing at capturing every little special moment for each stage.
Highly recommend Leah and will definitely use her again if the opportunity arises
Emily
We had the most amazing experience with Leah at her photography studio! She was very patient and calm with our 12 day old daughter Clare, leaving us very relaxed for the whole shoot. Leah had many props and backdrops, giving us a multitude of different images. We were able to not only capture or daughter but also parent images too. Our images have turned out absolutely perfect, lifelong memories we can always hold dear.
I will be recommending her services to all my family and friends, and I look forward to returning for other milestones and photography sessions in the future.
Dani
I booked a newborn session with Leah. Communication was great. At the shoot, my baby was very unsettled - Leah was extremely patient with her and got her to sleep . The photos are perfect. Just what we wanted - the poses and colours are beautiful.
I will be recommending her services to all my family and friends, and I look forward to returning for other milestones and photography sessions in the future.
