“A love story full of dancing, kisses, and pure magic! ✨💛”
 Meg & Kaylee brought such beautiful energy to their session, and capturing their love was an absolute dream. When I read their kind words after delivering their gallery, my heart melted! 🥹💖

“👉 My partner and I had the most beautiful experience working with Terri, who was just a pleasure to be around! We felt so comfortable throughout our whole session (considering we had never had a shoot before!). Terri made us feel safe, comfortable and made it such a fun experience! We are absolutely obsessed with the final images that Terri created and loved seeing her vision come to life. We are so in awe of her work and are truely grateful to her for capturing our love just perfectly.

We would highly recommend Terri to anyone who’s looking for stunning images but also an amazing experience capturing them. We can’t wait to work with Terri again in the future. You’re the best, Terri! ✨🤗🫶🏼”

Seeing couples feel safe, joyful, and truly themselves in front of my camera is what it’s all about. If you and your love are looking for a photography experience that’s all fun, no stress, and totally you—let’s chat! 🫶🏼📸

💖 Date Night, but Make It a Photoshoot! 📸✨

Forget awkward prom poses—this is all about laughing ‘til your cheeks hurt and stealing kisses when you think I’m not looking (spoiler: I totally am 👀).

A couples shoot isn’t about perfection—it’s about your inside jokes, and the way you fit together like a jigsaw puzzle

🏙️ Fortitude Valley is the perfect playground for this—gritty backstreets, neon lights, hidden bars… and you two being effortlessly cool (or dorky, or romantic, or whatever your love language looks like).

So grab your love, your favourite jacket, and let’s make some magic—no stiff poses, just you, being you, together. ❤️

✨ Ally & Matt – Childhood Besties to Mind-Reading Soulmates ✨

Okay, but imagine meeting your future fiancé in Grade 1 and having no idea you’d end up here?! That’s Ally & Matt’s love story, and honestly, we’re all just living in their rom-com. 🎬💘
Ally thought Matt was a lovely, respectful boy (aww), while Matt’s first impression? “Cute.” Classic. 😂 Fast forward to today, and these two are still the perfect mix of playful & romantic, pulling pranks, reading each other’s minds (seriously, they have a whole Black Magic thing going on 👀), and debating between adventuring out or Netflix + choccy. Spoiler: choccy usually wins. 🍫📺
If their love had a soundtrack, it’d be Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton, and honestly, their whole session had thatkind of energy—smooth, soulful, and full of all the good vibes. 🥃✨
Too many golden shots to choose from, so I just gave them everything (because choosing favorites is HARD, okay?!). Swipe to soak up the magic! 😍📸

✨ Brisbane’s Best Photo Spots? The Ones You Wander Into ✨ 
Forget the stiff, overly posed wedding portraits—some of the best couple photos happen when you just explore. Brisbane City is packed with hidden gems: cobblestone laneways, textured brick walls, moody back alleys, and golden light sneaking between the buildings. 
One of my favourite things? Taking a stroll with you and your love post-ceremony, pre-reception—letting you soak up that just married feeling while I snap the magic. No forced smiles, no rushing—just the two of you, hand in hand, embracing the moment (and maybe ducking into a sneaky laneway bar for a celebratory sip!). 
So if you’re getting married in Brisbane City, let’s ditch the stress and go for a wander—you never know what perfect little photo spot we’ll stumble into. 🖤

✨ No Audience, No Distractions—Just You Two ✨

Your wedding day is basically a big, joyful, love-filled whirlwind—one minute you’re saying “I do,” the next you’re being handed a champagne flute and pulled onto the dance floor. But before the party kicks off, can I let you in on a little secret?

Steal a moment. Just you two. No bridal party, no guests—just a quiet(ish) breather to soak up the holy heck, we just got married feels. It’s the perfect time for some gorgeous, intimate couple photos without an audience—just you, your love, and me (third-wheeling like a pro).

These moments? They often turn into the most beautiful, real, heart-squishing images of the day. So when we plan your timeline, let’s make sure you get that moment to just be married. ❤️📷

Montana and Sapphire’s elopement was the ultimate mix of intimate, iconic, and 100% them. ✨ Because why do things the usual way when you can do them your way?

No two elopements are the same—because no two love stories are the same. Some couples want mountaintop magic at sunset, others want to soak up the city vibes… and honestly? Some just want to get married in their PJs with their dog as the witness (which, for the record, I fully support).

Eloping isn’t about running away—it’s about running toward something that feels right. Whether that’s whispering vows in a quiet moment, popping champagne on a rooftop, or twirling around in the city streets, the most important thing is that it feels like you.

So if the thought of a big traditional wedding makes you want to fake a passport and flee the country, don’t stress. There’s another way. Let’s dream up something fun, real, and totally you. Let’s make some magic. ✨

📢 Why a Couple’s Photoshoot is the Ultimate Valentine’s Gift 💘📸

Valentine’s Day is all about celebrating love—so why not capture it forever? ✨

A couple’s photoshoot isn’t just about pretty pictures (though, trust me, you’ll get those too 😉). It’s about:

💖 Connection: A chance to slow down, be present, and soak in the love you share.
📸 Memories that Last: Unlike chocolates and flowers, these moments won’t fade.
😆 Fun & Candid Moments: No awkward posing here—just laughter, real connection, and maybe a cheeky kiss or two.

If you’ve never had a session before, this is your sign to do it! DM for shoot details!

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and I’m in full love-story mode! 💍💕 ✨.

Who’s ready to celebrate their love with some unforgettable photos?!?!!

22/01/2025

Oh hey there! It’s me, your long-lost photographer friend emerging from the Instagram abyss. Did you miss me? (It’s okay if you didn’t... kinda.)
 Over the last few months, I’ve been busy capturing beautiful love stories, chasing Shih-Tzus, and dreaming up big plans for 2025! And speaking of love stories, I’ve got something super sweet in store for Valentine’s Day. 🍰❤️
 Stay tuned for all the juicy details, and tell me in the comments—what’s your dream Valentine’s gift? (Mine might involve coffee and not tripping over camera bags.) P.S. Thanks for sticking around. You’re the best!

When Ruby and Sadie chose to a micro wedding, they made it *so them*. Ruby grew up in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, and even though she and Sadie now live overseas, this spot held so much meaning for her. It was the perfect place to gather their nearest and dearest for a day that felt like home—heartfelt, intimate, and surrounded by nature. 💕

Here’s the thing about micro weddings: they’re all about *you two*. You get to skip the stress, the seating charts, and the awkward uncle you haven’t seen in 15 years. Instead, you focus on what truly matters—your love, your story, and maybe a cheeky toast or two. 🥂

The Sunshine Coast is packed with stunning spots to make it happen, whether you’re into misty hinterland vibes, secret beaches, or epic mountain views. Whatever feels right for *you*.

As a q***r lady photographer of a certain fabulous age (okay, 40-ish 😏), my job is to make you feel completely at ease. Awkward in front of the camera? I get it. But trust me—after a few laughs, some bad jokes, and maybe a sneaky dance move or two, you’ll forget I’m even there. The result? Photos that feel like *you*.

Dreaming of an micro wedding or an elopement on the Sunshine Coast? Let’s chat! Whether you need location ideas, a calming presence, or someone to carry your bouquet while you climb a hill (yes, I do that), I’ve got you covered.

📍 So, where’s your dream “I do” spot? Tell me below!
