meet your yarra valley & victorian high country photographer


hey, i'm krystal


I’m a photographer, videographer, and storyteller based in the Yarra Valley & Victorian High Country, capturing love in all its forms, from maternity and newborn moments to families, weddings, and everything in between.


Your personal bestie and fellow wine lover, I’m your gal. But more than that, I’m a mother, a dreamer, and someone who truly believes in the power of preserving life’s most meaningful moments through beautiful, natural photography.

Welcome to the home studio – Your Calm Little Corner in Buxton



Stepping into the studio feels like arriving at a calm, sunlit pause from the outside world. Now located at my home studio in Buxton, the space is intentionally simple, warm and welcoming, designed to feel relaxed rather than formal.


Soft natural light fills the room, creating a beautiful, flattering glow that’s perfect for timeless newborn imagery. The studio is styled in neutral tones with earthy textures and minimal details, allowing your baby and those early connections, to remain the heart of every image. There’s plenty of space for feeding, cuddling, changing, and taking breaks whenever needed. Sessions are always baby-led, with no pressure and no rush.


Because the studio is set on our property, there’s a gentle country feel woven into the experience. After your session (or if older siblings need a little reset), there’s the joy of saying hello to our friendly sheep and goats, which often brings smiles and a sense of calm to the day.


Buxton itself is quiet and peaceful, perfect for those early postpartum days and if you feel up to it, the nearby town of Marysville makes a lovely stop afterwards for a warm meal or good coffee before heading home.
