Perth Family Photographer capturing natural, joy filled photos of your favourite people.
For mums who want photos that feel like their family.
Not stiff or overly posed. Not everyone forced to sit perfectly still and smile at the camera.
I photograph families across Perth in a relaxed, natural and story-led way, so your photos feel happy and full of life.
Sessions start at $650
The one capturing the smiles, the messy hair, the beach days, the couch cuddles, the birthdays and the ordinary moments that somehow become the most important ones.
But when you look back, how often are you actually in them with your kids?
You are usually the one taking the photos.
That is why I do what I do.
As a Perth family photographer, I want you to have photos where you can see the love you give every day. Not just what your family looked like, but what this season felt like.
The way your toddler wraps their arms around your neck.
The way your baby fits perfectly against your chest.
The way your big kids still reach for your hand when they forget they are getting older.
The way your family is right now, before it changes again.
Family, maternity and newborn photography in Perth
Whether you are soaking up the baby stage, growing your family, or simply wanting to document this season before it slips by, I’m here to make the process feel simple, relaxed and genuinely enjoyable.
In-home newborn sessions focused on your baby, your family and the quiet little details you will never want to forget.
Newborn Photography
A beautiful, relaxed way to document your pregnancy before your baby arrives. I will help with location, styling and gentle direction so you feel comfortable, confident and still like yourself.
Maternity Photography
Playful, natural family sessions for the mums who want connection over perfection. We will move, cuddle, play and let your children be themselves, so your photos feel real instead of forced.
Family Photography
My sessions are not about perfect behaviour.
If you are already thinking, “My kids won’t sit still,” you are not alone.
Most of the families I photograph say something similar before their session. Their toddler is wild. Their partner hates photos. Their baby might need feeding. Their kids might not listen. They are worried it will feel awkward.
That is exactly why my sessions are built around movement, connection and real interaction.
Your children do not need to sit perfectly.
Your partner does not need to love the camera.
You do not need to know what to do with your hands.
You do not need to arrive feeling calm and polished.
You just need to show up and love on your people. I will guide the rest.
A fun, relaxed experience from start to finish
Plan it together
Once you are booked, I will help with location ideas, outfit guidance and all the little details that make the day feel easier.
Access the client wardrobe
You will have access to my client wardrobe with beautiful pieces chosen to photograph well and feel comfortable for mums.
Enjoy your shoot
On the day, I will gently guide you through the session while leaving plenty of space for real smiles, play, cuddles and connection.
Beautiful online gallery
After your session, you’ll receive an online gallery where you can view and choose your images.
Photos that feel like your actual family.
The best photos usually happen in the moments you could never plan.
When your child runs straight into your arms.
When your toddler refuses to sit still, but gives you the cheekiest grin.
When your baby stretches their little fingers across your chest.
When everyone starts laughing because the wheels have slightly fallen off.
That is the good stuff.
I will always take the beautiful smiling photos too, but the images families come back to years later are often the ones filled with personality. The ones that show who your children really were at this age. The ones that feel like home.
My style is relaxed and experience-led. I care just as much about how your session feels as I do about how the photos look.
Because I know that if you feel awkward, rushed or stressed, that shows. But when your family feels comfortable, connected and free to be themselves, the photos have so much more life in them.
I will give you direction when you need it, but I will never expect your family to act like someone else’s. Your session will be built around your people, your season and the little moments that make your family yours.
I am the face behind Perth Lifestyle Photography and I have spent the past 9 years photographing Perth families in a way that feels natural, warm and easy.
Hey! I'm Rhiannan!
Perth has so many beautiful locations for relaxed family photos, from soft beach sessions at sunset to open fields, bushland, quiet suburban spots and cosy in-home newborn sessions.
If you already have a location in mind, amazing. If you have no idea where to start, I will help you choose somewhere that suits your family, your children’s ages, the season and the feeling you want from your photos.
Some families want golden beach photos.
Some want playful, outdoorsy photos with room for kids to run.
Some want something calm and simple at home.
Some want a location that feels a little more adventurous.
You do not need to figure it out alone. I will guide you.
Perth photography locations that suit your family
Maybe life feels busy.
Maybe money feels tight.
Maybe your partner hates photos.
Maybe you are waiting until you feel more confident.
Maybe you keep telling yourself you will book something when things calm down.
But family life rarely slows down first.
The baby grows. The toddler changes. The missing teeth appear. The cuddles shift. The season you are in right now becomes the one you wish you had more photos of.
Your session does not need to be a big, stressful thing. It can be simple, fun and easy. A small window of time where you get to be in the frame with your family, instead of watching it all from behind your phone.
For the mum who knows these photos matter, but keeps putting them off.
Frequently asked questions
Most mums say this at first. I gently guide you throughout the session so it feels natural and relaxed.
What if I feel awkward in front of the camera?
It is always best to book early, especially for newborn and maternity sessions, but feel free to reach out and I can let you know current availability.
How far ahead should I book?
Absolutely. My sessions are designed to capture connection across the whole family.
Can my partner and other children be included?
I’ll help guide you with outfit choices, and I also offer access to a client wardrobe for women to make things easier.
What should we wear?
That is completely okay. My sessions are designed to work with children as they are, not expect them to perform. Some of the best images come from movement, play and real interaction.
