Relaxed Family Photography with Sydney Harbour Views
There’s something special about family photo sessions that feel more like a weekend stroll than a formal photoshoot—and Lavender Bay is the perfect setting for that kind of magic.
This beautiful North Shore family had been meaning to book a session for years. Life kept getting in the way—weddings, work, raising young children. But with the grandparents finally in town and the kids still in that gorgeous in-between age, they decided it was time to finally make it happen.
As a natural light family photographer in Sydney, I love creating relaxed, unscripted sessions that capture real smiles, big hugs, and the kind of connection you can’t fake. We explored the leafy walkways and waterfront views of Lavender Bay, with Sydney Harbour glistening behind us, and let the kids lead the way.
Mum told me later that she was so glad they didn’t wait any longer. These are the images they’ll frame, gift to family overseas, and come back to again and again.
The session was in 2020—when the world looked a little different. I arrived masked up, and kept a safe distance while still engaging the kids and working with a longer lens. The result? Joyful, timeless family photos that reflect love, laughter, and the quiet strength of this incredible family.
