Lovely to meet you
I'm Kerin
Happiest in nature, camera in hand, capturing genuine people, families and lovely connections.
Thank you for your interest in my photography and beloved business which I have nurtured since a very young woman.
I’d be described as down to earth, warm, kind, humble and honest.
Being the centre of attention makes me cringe. Always the quiet observer.
I care deeply about my work and the people who become my clients and often my friends.
I thrive on simple things ~ my fur babies, my creative home, outings with mum, my family, walks, sewing, pottering in my garden, dinners with friends, going to the cinema, reading and vintage furniture.
I've poured my heart and soul into my lifelong career
My entire career has been immersed in this magical craft and my business is my baby.
I’ve studied photography, obtained my Diploma in Commercial Photography, worked in labs, studios and been in business for over 25 years.
Hundreds and hundreds of family shoots and weddings, some lovely exhibitions and nice awards. Film, darkrooms and now digital and computers.
I’ve been gifted with a talent which I have harnessed and grown, it's been my journey, straight from school.
In 2011, I became a Master Photographer which was a special moment in my life.
My dear late Dad built me my first darkroom, a third of his shed when I was 16, although I did try to negotiate for half the shed !
My decision to move out of the city and back to my Hills roots, embrace a tree change in 2015 has been the best decision I have ever made.
Over the last few years I have slowly renovated my beautiful old home in Strathalbyn.
Built in 1860, she's a real gem. Lucky to find although I think it was waiting for me all along as I searched for my forever home.
I also converted a rustic stone building on my property to my studio, it's a funky, cool little space.
I have photographed the love stories of many couples, as they got married. What a privilege that has been, around 1000 weddings.
In 2021, I made a heartfelt decision and hung up my Wedding Cameras. It was time for change.
The end of an era. 25 years of shooting weddings.
Back to where it all started
My focus is now completely my Family and Portrait work.
This is where it all began for me.
My work is my heart.
While small business is a constant commitment, I work so hard, love the challenge and it is my purpose, my place in the world.
Capturing joy and special bits when things on earth seem pretty messed up right now.
Thanks for taking the time as I shared a part of my life and story.
Kindest, Kerin x
