Photographing Port Stephens weddings and families since 1999.
Hi, I’m Natalie, a professional photographer based in the Sutherland Shire and Port Stephens who specializes in Weddings, Maternity, Family and Childcare photography. I service Port Stephens and surrounding areas, as well as Sutherland Shire, Sydney. I am always on the look out for traveling too!
Originally NKD’s Photography, I started my photography business in 1999, at age 18, selling my landscape image at the local markets. Over time I had more and more requests for Portraits and Wedding photography, which remains my main source of photography.
In 2017 I joined world renowned photographer, Ana Brandt, as her sales consultant for Australia, creating my new love for maternity photography and education for Australian photographers.
With over 80 maternity gowns to choose and 100+ girls boutique dresses, there’s defiantly no need for you to worry about what to wear!
I am wife and mother of one boy and two girls.

We recently had our children’s Christmas Photos taken with Natalie. They are absolutely beautiful x
Natalie’s eye for detail, experience and calm nature with the children were winners for me! I highly recommend Natalie for any family photography session.

My husband and I chose Natalie for our maternity shoot and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Natalie provided beautiful gowns and made the session fun, easy and needless to say the photos turned out perfect. She also accepted the challenge of including my horses and dog in the session and did a fantastic job considering she had not photographed horses like this before. We would both highly recommend using Natalie if you are planning on having a maternity session.

Natalie was amazing, we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer, the photos came out wonderfully,
Natalie talked us through everything, helped us with poses and positioning and made us both feel comfortable.
The photos turned out better than we ever thought possible, they are magical and truly a work of art.
My husband and I are forever grateful to have our special day captured so beautifully.
I cant recommend Natalie enough! After our wedding two of my close friends chose Natalie to be the photographer for their big day and they too cant recommend her enough to others.

Recently had a maternity shoot with Natalie, we had the best morning full of so many laughs and she captured the most beautiful sunrise photos for us to forever look back on, we couldn’t be any happier with the photos we received, would 100% recommend Natalie to anyone! She is amazing and has a beautiful supply of maternity dresses to use!

I booked my maternity photoshoot with Natalie after seeing her beautiful work on Instagram and then her website! She was so so so easy to communicate with leading up to the shoot and then on the day made everything so easy and comfortable for my husband and I. She made both of us feel at ease (especially because we are camera shy), but she made eveyrthing feel so natural and fun! On top of this, Natalie was so professional and very organised! She was so well prepared and was able to provide us with different poses and tips for the photos! Our photos turned out to be so beautiful and they are everything we imagined when we spoke about getting maternity photos. Thank you, Natalie!! You are amazing and if I could give you 1000 stars here, I would!!

Very happy with Silver package for wedding. Natalie had great energy and happy vibes on the day + great with kids and families. Was able to capture some awesome photos on the sand dunes at Anna Bay.
Adam & Jessie
We had Natalie photograph our post-engagement session at Birubi Beach/Stockton Sand Dunes and it was wonderful! She was incredibly easy to get along with and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She provided high quality photos that exceeded our expectations and we cannot wait for her to cover our wedding day later this year! We’d highly recommend Natalie to anyone.

Thank you so much Natalie for our beautiful family photos. We could not be happier with them. The shoot was easy, fun, you kept the kids interested and amused and the bush setting was perfect. You will definately be our go-to photographer moving forward. Thanks again!
Margaret and Andrew Seckold
We could not have been happier with the service Natalie provided. We were ‘blown away’ by the photos and video of our wedding. She did an amazing job! She was very accommodating and professional. We highly recommend Natalie to anyone wanting a professional photographer.

We have had the pleasure of Natalie capturing many of our most memorable moments as a family. Not once have we been disappointed in the professionalism and quality of Natalie’s service. Natalie always manages to take the most perfect shots and all the while we feel natural and comfortable during the process. Whatever the setting you require, engage Natalie and her services, you will not be disappointed.
