ABOUT

Meet Sandra

Hi!  Thanks for visiting and welcome to my website!

Just a little bit about me ….

As a 70’s child, my small town upbringing taught me to adapt, stick my heels in and that if you want something enough – it’ll follow.  I dreamed of working in photography, but in those days – it was not a “real job for a girl” so I followed my other interest in science to gain a BSc. (Still studying photography on the side….).

The reality of working in a lab was not for me – so I headed off overseas to spread my wings modelling in the fashon industry for many years …. all the time banking skills off some of the globes best shooters. 

Working with some incredibly talented commercial and wedding photographers has taught me not only technical tricks but also personal ones –  to relax and position clients easily.  It’s generally not easy to be yourself in front of a lens, and my stress-free approach and easygoing nature ensures that your session with me is always fun, relaxed and memorable.

The arrival of my daughter rocked my world some years ago, again bringing a whole new world of wisdom and respect for parenthood and family!  I love working with children of all ages – never too proud to be a little silly…. and animals – you’re told not to work with either – I must be happily mad!

So – if you are a loving couple, have been blessed with a newborn child or a family get together, life has so many memories to remember and photography can help celebrate these long after the moment has shifted.

My commercial portfolio has built up heavily with work including architecture & real estate, magazines, fashion, food, products and events. It’s a different ball game and one I thrive on.

Please feel free to browse my site and to contact me for any further discussion about what you are after.

Thank you!

What My Clients Say

Thank you for the lovely job you did with our wedding photographs.  You captured our day with such style, made us look great and kept us running on time - both with a professional manner and friendly smile!

Every time we look at our photos again it takes us back to our wedding day.  We absolutely love our photos and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone else (in fact we already have!)

Susan and Paul

Thank you so much for being our wedding photographer. I have looked over our photos so many times now (I have lost count) and just cant get over how brilliant they are!

I would strongly recommend you to anyone looking for a photographer (I already have actually;). You turned up on the day with your positive, lovely, bubbly manner which put us at ease, not that we are the stressful type - but having you was just perfect because we love your work and thing you are amazingly talented.

Getting the high resolution photos on disk was just awesome, so quick and efficient. Love the mock album and cant wait to see the real one. Thank you!

Jessica and Tony

WOW what else can we say!!.... you are an amazing photographer who made our day so special!

You were fab to work with and we just LOVE our photos!

Warren and Gayle

Thanks Sandra, We are so happy with our photos.

You have done a wonderful job to capture our then 3 week old baby.

The images are perfect its so nice to have some beautiful natural photos of our baby. We were unsure of what we wanted but your direction and relaxed nature made it flow so well and therefore makes it difficult to select which images we wanted to keep and enlarge as there are so many good ones 🙂

I have no hesitation recommending you to anyone as their photographer.

Thanks again.

Shannon and Tim
