Gold Coast Family Photography – Capturing Your Story, Naturally.

Life moves fast—especially when little ones are involved. One moment, they’re snuggled in your arms, and the next, they’re off exploring the world with wild curiosity. You want to hold onto every stage, every giggle, and every cuddle. That’s where I come in.

I’m a Gold Coast family photographer who specialises in capturing natural, unposed moments. Whether it’s a beach adventure, a cozy in-home session, or the quiet anticipation of welcoming a new baby, I create images that feel warm, real, and full of life. No stiff poses—just you and your family, exactly as you are.

Gold Coast Family Photography – Capturing the Magic of Childhood

 

Maybe your kids are happiest chasing waves, building sandcastles, and running barefoot along the beach. Or perhaps they’re homebodies—snuggled up in their favourite corner, creating, playing, and filling the house with laughter (and a little chaos). Maybe they love climbing trees, exploring the world from above, and getting lost in the pages of a book.

No matter how they spend their days, one thing is certain—you want to remember this.

You want to freeze these moments in time, to look back on their childhood and see it bathed in golden light. The weekend adventures, the belly laughs, the sibling squabbles that always turn into giggles, the endless curiosity and play.

One day, when they’re grown, you want them to look back at these photos and feel it all over again. The love, the joy, the freedom of childhood. And most of all, you want them to know—from the very start, they were deeply loved.

“I have never felt more comfortable with another person taking photos of myself and my family. Tracey blends into the grass and while you spend time with your loved ones, she catches the most precious memories.”

What a Family Session with Me Looks Like

With years of experience as a family photographer on the Gold Coast, I know how to capture the little details—the wind in your child’s hair, the way they reach for your hand, the laughter that fills the air. I keep things relaxed, letting moments unfold naturally so you can enjoy the experience without feeling like you’re on display.

You don’t need to stress about getting the "perfect" shot—that’s my job. I’ll guide you when needed, offer simple prompts, and make sure you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera.

Natural, unposed imagery from the heart.

Newborn Photography – Holding Onto the Early Days

The newborn stage passes in a blur, but through natural newborn photography, you can freeze those tiny fingers, soft yawns, and the way they fit perfectly in your arms. My newborn sessions are baby-led, with no pressure—just a relaxed space to capture the love that fills these early days.

FAQs

What should we wear?

The most important thing is that you are comfortable and feel good! That said, I suggest you steer clear of any crazy patterns or obvious brand names. If your little one is obsessed with patterned dress or you can’t get them out of their spiderman costume though, then go for it! These photo sessions are all about capturing real life, after all, and what’s more real than a toddler obsessed with a superhero? 

Can we bring our dog?

Of course! Dogs and pets are such an important part of the family, and I’d love to document all of you together. Just let me know so that we can plan your Gold Coast family portraits for a pet-friendly location. 

How many images will we receive?

This depends on the package that you choose, but your gallery will include at least 50 digital images from your shoot. Once you’ve purchased your collection, you’ll then be able to choose the photos you wish to download (again, how many photos you can download varies based on the collection!!), which will be ready to share, print and cherish. 

When will we receive our photos?

You’ll receive your photos via a secure, online gallery within 3 weeks of your shoot. 

What happens if it rains? Can we reschedule?

Funny story! One of my absolute favourite memories of a Gold Coast family photoshoot was when we got caught in a down pour – it was really bucketing down! I wound up heading back to the family’s home, where they gave me a change of clothes and we hung out while my own clothes were in the dryer! We got some really wonderful, fun photos.

That said, rain isn’t always the best for photos – especially when there are young kids involved! – so it might be best to postpone. Only time will tell though, so let’s wait and see what the weather will be like and then decide.

Have a burning question?

Get in touch here and I’ll get back to you with the answer!
