Vibrant Youth in the Heart of Perth: A Saturday Afternoon Portrait Session

Last Saturday afternoon, I had the pleasure of capturing a portrait session in the bustling city of Perth. My subject was a charismatic 16-year-old with striking orange hair and captivating blue eyes, making for a unique and vibrant look that stood out against the urban backdrop.

His bright orange hair contrasting beautifully with the cool tones of the carpark we found, creating images that are both striking and memorable.

This portrait session was not just about capturing his likeness but also about showcasing his unique character

It was a joy to work with someone so confident, and I’m thrilled with how the images turned out. I’m excited to share this session with you all and hope it inspires you to embrace being uniquely you - just as Sam has done.

Thank you for joining me on this journey, and I look forward to sharing more sessions from around our beautiful city.

Family Photography Session in City Beach, Western Australia

Welcome back to the Picarnie Photography blog! Today, I am thrilled to share the heartwarming story behind a recent family photography session in the picturesque setting of City Beach, Western Australia.

Capturing Milestones:

I have had the privilege of documenting precious milestones for the Moore family since the joyful anticipation of Kirstie's first pregnancy. It has been an honour to be continuously entrusted with being apart of these moments and sharing them with her growing family, Preserving memories that will be cherished for generations to come.

A Decade of Friendship:

Friendship is a bond that transcends time and distance, and for Kirstie and myself, it's a journey that spans over a decade. Kirstie isn't just a client; she's is one of my closest friends, a fellow creative soul and photographer with whom ideas are freely exchanged, and a pillar of unwavering reliability. I am forever grateful!

Exploring City Beach:

Nestled along the stunning coastline of Western Australia, City Beach provides the perfect backdrop for capturing the essence of family bonds against the backdrop of nature's beauty. With its white sand azure waters, and breathtaking sunsets, every frame tells a story of love, laughter, and togetherness.

A session that was based on capturing their first family photos since their wedding and to get photos of their little girl before she lost her two front baby teeth turned into an extremely gorgeous family session with more images than this post can hold that I can not wait for Luke & Caitlyn to see. 

These guys were super stars in front of the camera, Especially Marlee (6) who is full of confidence and character, naturally putting herself into poses and smiling away. 

Thankfully we got through the session with all teeth just intact.. a few hours later that night, one fell out.
