hello, it's so nice to meet you!

Heartfelt Stories, Deeply Felt Moments ...

Hello lovers, I’m Carissa—storyteller, artist, and mum to three sons and now an incredible crew of six grown sons in our beautifully blended family. My world has always revolved around connection, kindness, and capturing what truly matters—the ones that make your heart race, bring happy tears, and leave an imprint on your soul.

For me, photography is more than just images; it’s about feeling. The quiet glances, the wild laughter, the deep, unspoken connection between two souls—this is what moves me.  This is how I describe my life... moving, real, deeply loved, intentionally peaceful — I live for my family. 

I step into your world with an open heart and an artist’s eye, capturing the magic of your love exactly as it unfolds—**unfiltered, untamed, and beautifully real.**

My work is a fusion of cinematic beauty and deep emotion—stunning landscapes, intimate close-ups, free-spirited candids, and the kind of imagery that breathes warmth, earthiness, and nostalgia. Every frame is intentional, every edit crafted to honour your love story in a way that is soulful, raw, and timeless.

Above all, authenticity is everything—in the way I connect with my couples, in the way I hold space for your most meaningful moments, and in the way I tell your story. 

Whether your love is wild and adventurous or quiet and intimate, my goal is to document it in a way that feels deeply personal, profoundly moving, and undeniably you.

YOU are HERE because ... You FOUND the One you LOVE.

let's design you personal time line 

There are a handful of wedding packages to choose from, and most can be shaped to reflect your unique love story—because no two celebrations are ever the same. Each one is crafted to capture the soulful, joy-filled, messy, magical, real moments that make your day uniquely yours.

Whether your day is quiet and tender, or loud and joyously wild, these offerings are designed to hold space for every kind of love and every kind of celebration. From intimate elopements to heartfelt gatherings with your favourite people, every package is created to honour the connection, emotion, and beautifully imperfect in-between moments that truly matter.

All The Highlights  /

From your day :

Love Unscripted – A City Elopement in Brisbane:

"Carissa captured our love story exactly as we dreamed it would be — wild, authentic, and completely ours. We didn't want the traditional wedding. We wanted something that felt like US — messy, magical, and full of spontaneous moments.

From the second we met Carissa, we knew she understood our vision. She didn't try to put us in a box or make us follow someone else's timeline.

Our Brisbane elopement was everything we hoped for and more. Carissa had this incredible way of making us forget the camera was even there. We were just two people madly in love, dancing in alleyways and stealing kisses on busy streets, while she captured every genuine laugh and tender glance.

What we love most about our photos is how REAL they feel. You can see our connection, our joy, our personalities shining through every single frame. Carissa didn't just photograph our elopement — she helped us create an adventure.

If you're thinking about throwing the rule book out the window and writing your own love story, Carissa is your person. She gets it. She gets YOU. And she'll make sure your story is told exactly the way it deserves to be — with heart, soul, and zero compromises.
Thank you for giving us photos that make us fall in love with our day (and each other) all over again."
