TATIANA


Heartfelt & beautifully timeless photography


Hi, I'm Tatiana.

If you're feeling a bit nervous about getting in front of the camera, you're in good company. Almost every mum I photograph tells me the same thing: "I hate photos of myself." And almost every one of them leaves saying it was so much easier than she expected.

That's my favourite part of what I do. I'll guide you the whole way, so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands. I'll make silly noises to get a laugh from your toddler, and I'll be honest with you when something looks amazing.


I've been photographing families, maternity and newborns in Port Stephens for eight years now. My goal is the same every time: photos that feel like you on your best day, not a stiff version of you that you barely recognise.

A little about me: I'm a mum of three boys, so life at home is loud, messy and full of love. I know how fast those little years go, and I know how rarely mums end up in the photos. When I'm not shooting, you'll find me [your thing here, e.g. walking Birubi Beach with a coffee in hand].

If you'd love photos you'll actually want to look at, I'd love to hear from you. Send me a message and let's chat.
