I just had my sons newborn session with Charisse and I’m so glad I found her. She was friendly and so patient with my son. I didn’t feel like we were being rushed through the shoot. Her space was warm and inviting and once settled my son slept through most of it. Her prices are reasonable and made very clear of what’s included. Booking and payment was easy too. I’ve already recommended her to family and friends and I’ll be back for future sessions .
Declan

Elly Smith
I had the most amazing experience working with Charisse for my boudoir photoshoot! From the moment I arrived, she made me feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. Her warm and friendly personality instantly put me in a great mood, making the entire photo session a breeze.
Charisse’s attention to detail and creative direction were truly impressive. She took the time to understand what I wanted to convey through the photos and then worked her magic to bring that vision to life. Her skill in capturing the perfect angles and lighting was outstanding.
I was absolutely thrilled when I saw the final results. Charisse’s work exceeded my expectations in every way. The photos turned out stunning, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Charisse’s talent and professionalism are truly exceptional, and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of professional photography. Thank you, Charisse, for making this experience so enjoyable and for delivering such outstanding results!
Siobhan
The photos from our maternity shoot are beyond perfect, so happy with them. I must say Charisse made us all feel so comterable in front of the camera and will definitely be using her again for our future family photos.
Thanks again Charisse we are so happy with the beautiful pictures u took of us 🙂
Renee Elliott
Had an absolutely amazing experience with Charisse for my shoot. Fun, creative , captured everything I had envisioned. Can’t recommend Charisse enough !
Honestly never felt so comfortable in my own skin as I did doing this long awaited maternity shoot.
Shai-Anne Ball
I had come across a friend of mine who had used Charisse’s amazing photography for her family photos and I had to look into it. I messaged her and she was super accommodating and welcoming to my partner and I and for what we requested for our maternity shoots with our dogs and was amazing! She definitely made the experience amazing and was so sweet! We have our newborn shoot coming up and cannot wait to see her again! Definitely would recommend her to anyone wanting amazing photography with a photographer who cares and is the sweetest person!
Chantal Hubert
Our newborn photoshoot with Charisse was perfection! From the props, outfits, poses and interaction with our little one, Charisse was nothing short from amazing. Every photo produced was stunning, which made it impossible to select a favourite. Charisse is professional, friendly and an absolute joy to work with. We will definitely be going back for more family photoshoots and couldn’t recommend her enough. Book in with Charisse, you won’t be disappointed!!!

Glenn Wadsworth
I worked with Charisse on Fitzroy Island last month. She was so easy to work with at a challenging wedding situation. I appreciated her help in organising the guests at a wedding that came across a few challenges during the evening. She took amazing shots of the couple and and guests and some of me as the Dj at the wedding. I would highly recommend Charisse for any event. She is approachable, professional and highly skilled. No photographic session would be too challenging for her
Samantha
I had my maternity photos and newborn photos taken by Charisse. she was so friendly and warm and really made us feel very comfortable. provided us sneak peaks of the photos that afternoon after the photo shoot and delivery time was very quick turn around also. very happy with the end result. Couldn’t be happier and would happily book her again for future shoots.

Charisse is the best of the best!
I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my newborn. She made me feel at ease with her beautiful and calm persona. She was gentle and patient with my little boy & the results are to die for 🥹🤎
Samantha Goller
Charisse took our maternity photos and then again our newborn photos. The newborn photos turned out so perfect. They were taken at her home, and she had a number of cute little outfits, blankets and wraps for bub and was so patient to help settle him and give him the time to calm down and fall asleep to get some sleeping photos. It was a very comfortable setting and the quality of the photos are brilliant. Highly recommend and will definitely be getting more photos through Charisse in the future.
Melinda
Charisse was so wonderful to work with! She is so down to earth and patient, she made us feel comfortable In front of the camera. She travelled a fair way to take our photos but she did an amazing job and have since recommended her to everyone looking for a photographer. Highly recommend!
Lucy Merlo
I could not recommend Charisse more highly. We had a newborn shoot in December and I get so many compliments on her work & recommend her any chance I get. If you’re thinking about booking in please do! Thank you again for being so caring and taking your time with my baby
Samantha Goller
Charisse photographed my fiance and I maternity shoot of our first child together. It was also my first photoshoot I’ve been involved in so was a little nervous. Charisse made us feel so comfortable, like we had known her for years. It was such a good time, making us laugh and the results were so natural and stunning. We are so happy we went with Charisse to capture these precious moments, and the photos were beautiful. Also think the price was very reasonable as well compare to a number of other maternity shoots I inquired about at the time. Highly recommend.
Neeshiya Fernando
She is a wizard!! The photos were absolutely magical. She was able to capture the moments I had in mind. 100% recommend her.
Jorjarna
I had my maternity shoot with Charisse and I honestly can not fault her one bit! She went to great lengths to make my 5 year old feel involved and not so restless. Our photos have came out amazing and I can’t wait til we have our newborn family photos done in a few weeks! Will definitely be recommending Charisse to family and friends x
Camila
Couldn’t recommend Charisse highly enough, I had my maternity photos taken a couple of weeks ago and it was incredible, she made me feel so relax, confident in myself. I’ve saw just a few samples of the photos but I’m already pretty happy with the results she showed us, it’s beautiful! Me, hubby and baby had fun during the photos. Can’t wait to see the final results and to have my baby here to book the session for newborn.
Jennifer Bilancieri
Charisse is so lovely, easy going and most importantly talented, had my maternity photoshoot and newborn photoshoot with her and OMG!

We had a newborn photoshoot with Charisse and the whole experience from start to finish was very professional and organised. We weren’t sure how our newborn was going to go with the shoot but Charisse was so great and comfortable with our baby and he loved every minute! The photos are just incredible and these are memories we will have forever. We highly recommend Charisse!
Jessica McMullen
We worked with Charisse for a pregnancy and newborn shoot. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with and the photos were stunning! Could not recommend highly enough.
Kyah
I have had 3 shoots with Charisse now and have just booked a fourth because we love her work so much! When heavily pregnant I was feeling self conscious about my body but Charisse made me feel so comfortable, confident and beautiful. Due to bad weather at the time of my maternity shoot my session had to be rescheduled multiple times and Charisse was so accommodating and helpful to make sure I got the perfect photos. Fast forward to our bub being born and the photos yet again were amazing! Our daughter was a bit unsettled but Charisse worked her magic and captured her perfectly. We have just booked Christmas photos and I cannot wait for them too! Thanks so much for giving me beautiful memories to look back on Charisse!
Josh Katipa
Me and my partner have been lucky enough to get our maternity and newborn shots by Charisse and we couldn’t be happier with the results. I’d happily recommend her to anyone!

I cannot recommend Charisse highly enough! Not only is she an amazing photographer but she is also the baby whisperer!! My son Ezra was not wanting to cooperate for a little while and Charisse was so patient with him! We loved our family photographs! Thank you so much we will be back in 12 months

Charisse is professional and so good at calming babies. We highly recommend her service and will be employing her services in the future. Thank you for a wonderful experience and outcome
Casey
We had a new born shoot with charisse and couldn’t be happier with our photos, the day and the way she organised everything. We ended up having a premmmie babe who came a month early and she fit us in within a few days of getting home. Will def be using her for our next family shoots 🙂
Penny
Words cannot describe how amazing Charrise is. I booked a beach sunset family/maternity session with her and I just couldn’t be happier with all aspects of the shoot. Charrise made me feel so comfortable and confident. She is so friendly and uplifting and just has everything you look for in a Photographer. Because Charrise was so great I reached out a day later and booked in a boudoir maternity shoot and she guided me through every step and every pose and made me feel so sexy and confident in my pregnant body. Charrise knows how to have a great laugh and makes you feel like you’re there with a friend instead of a stranger behind a camera. She truly is amazing and I couldn’t recommend her enough! I look forward to my newborn shoot with Charrise 🥰
Beth
I went back and forth for ages deciding to get newborn photos of my daughter and I’m so glad I did! Charisse was amazing and managed to fit me in last minute, she was wonderful with my daughter and went above and beyond To give us memories we will cherish forever, will definitely be back to capture more of life’s precious memories with Charisse
Celina
Had a newborn session with Charisse and had a great experience! She’s very friendly and I am super happy with the results! Highly recommend!
Zoe King
Charisse will forever hold a place in our love story when she became our photographer for our surprise wedding. She met us by chance when pur booked photographer was diagnosed with COVID. She stepped in and saved our special day by agreeing to be our photographer. Not only did she produce the most stunning photos but she saved me from a bridal breakdown on our day. We loved having her at our wedding and will definitely book with her again 💕💕
Tamieka Broderick
I could not recommend Charisse more! We had a newborn photoshoot with her, and it was the most beautiful experience. Charisse was so good with our little baby, and the photos were just incredible. Charisse was warm and welcoming and made us feel so comfortable. Will certainly be going back to Charisse for more photos in the future xx
Issie Warne
I cannot thank Charisse enough for capturing such amazing photos during our newborn photoshoot. Charisse was incredibly friendly and professional throughout the entire session. She is the most incredible job and I cannot fault her whatsoever, Thank you once again Charisse for capturing this special time in our lives xxx
Jasmine Bucknall
I absolutely enjoyed the whole experience of my maternity shoot and felt comfortable. The photos are beautiful. Would 100% recommend Charisse to family and friends.
Tiarna Hope
Where do I begin… From the time my little one and I arrived we felt so welcomed & comfortable. Through out the sessions Charisse & I had a good laugh, endless chats & to make it all that more better Charisse was so so good with bub. She had so much love & warmth that bub nodded off to sleep not long after arriving.. even though she tried to fight her sleep it didn’t work this time, thanks to that magic touch haha. i’m one to not like being in front of the camera & 99.9% of the time I dislike the end result but I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better outcome from the photos to the experience. Motherhood is such an indescribably beautiful experience but it’s sad when you realise they’ll never be this small again.. but thanks to Charisse we now have memories that have been captured forever & will never fade 🤎
Karina
Our newborn shoot with Charisse was beyond fabulous! We love it. Charisse has a gifted hands with babies. Highly recommend her.
Dominique
I’ve had 2 in home sessions with Charisse-and I could not be happier! She is professional, super friendly and made us feel very comfortable-it was like hanging out with a good friend! She was great with our son Braxton Her shots were great and exactly what we were after with a great price point which is an added bonus! Can’t wait for our next shoot 🥰
Ebony
After having our first Bub, I had no idea how to choose a newborn photographer, Especially after those first few sleepless nights. Charisse made the process easy and we felt comfortable. Her patience with Bub was amazing and her passion was evident throughout. Very happy with the outcome. Would definitely recommend and being able to shoot in our home was perfect for us. Thank you!
Emma Brady
Had an amazing milk bath session and was so impressed with her work. She was professional but made me feel so at ease and comfortable especially as someone who doesn’t love being in front of the camera. Her images turned out amazing I will definitely be back 😍
Emily
Where do I start… after working with Charisse today I feel so in-powered and beautiful I have recently gone through a lot of hard things at the end of 2021 and lost a little bit of myself in the process I was hesitating on actually doing a shoot because I didn’t feel like me any more I didn’t feel like I had the strength and after working with her today I feel so beautiful and so much better about myself🥰 she is an amazing lady and makes you feel so comfortable, the vibe that she gave off and the laughs that we had definitely made my day and I couldn’t recommend her enough🤍 i’ve always been a little bit insecure about myself but after seeing some of the photos I definitely don’t feel insecure at all Ps she doesn’t like flys or any flying bug 😂 had a couple laughs about that
Stacey
Did our maternity shoot with this lovely lady made us feel very comfortable takes the time and effort with you very lovely ❤️
BRETTANY
Wow is an understatement with this lovely ladies work ! My family photos and newborn photos were beautiful. Charisse is very family oriented and makes everyone feel comfortable and not forced in photos. This is our second time going through her and I’ll forever recommend her to my friends and family.
Amanda
Loved having Charisse take photos of my little man. She was so prompt to book us in & so caring with Huxley during our shoot. Love how all the photos came out & as new parents loved being able to do it from the comfort of our own home! Highly recommend!
Jess
Charisse was amazing!! Her packages and affordability was what drew us to book her for our newborn photo shoot. Charisse came prepared with an array of props and made us feel comfortable and at ease. Photographing a newborn can be so unpredictable but Charisse had so much time and patience for the session and did everything in her power to ensure we were happy and got the shots we wanted. I haven’t had such a relaxed experience with a photographer before!
Anna
I had a newborn session with Charisse and cannot put into words how amazing the session was. Charisse was warm, friendly, and very patient with our little one. My partner and I were were really impressed with how easy everything was and how beautiful the photos are. I highly recommend booking a session with Charisse if you haven’t already.
Kristina Haim
Clarisse is amazing at her craft. She is professional, efficient and very friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our family photo session and we would highly recommend her.
Rachael Buckman
We had family photos done back in 2020 and they were absolutely amazing, Charisse was amazing and so good with all the kids and got all the grumpy ones to smile. Excellent work!!
Weronika
Beautiful pictures were taken of our little family. Love your style and vibe !!!
Haylee Podgorski
I have been blessed to experience two photoshoots with Charisse now and both were so perfect. The first was my maternity shoot, she recommended a stunning location, it was my partner myself and two children, as hard as kids can been in a photoshoot Charisse was amazing with them. She is kind & caring and so patient also which made the shoot so fun and a beautiful memory. The second was my photoshoot for my newborn baby girl. Charisse brought all of the props and clothing to my house which was a lifesaver with a newborn baby. From the start bub was unsettled and she would sit and pat her, hold and comfort her to get her ready for the shot, such a beautiful soul even changed her nappy. The photos in both photoshoots are amazing, couldn’t ask for any better I would highly recommend using Charisse for your photoshoot and will always use her in the future Xx
Bindi
Omg HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Goes above and beyond for all your needs!!!
Kayleen Liebchen
Charisse takes beautiful images of her clients, no matter the age and she chooses beautiful backdrops for her photographs. She is very dedicated to her craft and making everyone at ease whe she does a photo session for them. I personally know quite few of Charisse’s clients and they all are extremely with how the photos of themselves and their loved ones have turned out.
Shaina Heaton
Charisse took family photos of my new family. From the begging she made us feel comfortable and made everything so easy highly recommended.
Keziah Siscar
We are so grateful that Charisse has agreed to cover our son’s baptism with a very short notice. She was very accommodating and patient throughout the event. She was able to capture key moments during our special time. I am also delighted that she promptly delivered the edited photos. Thank you so much.
Renee
I would highly recommended to book Charisse for any photo session. Man she delivered. Was very flexible with her availability. Communicated with me all the way to hand over of my family photos, our shooting session was just amazing, Charisse made it super fun for my children, capturing so may perfect photo, I cannot recommend anyone other than this beautiful lady. Thanks for making such beautiful memorable photos for me and my family
Brianna
I had the best experience with charisse when she did my maternity photoshoot. She made me feel so relaxed and comfortable in my body when I was so self conscious about how big I was. Charisse was so fast with getting the finished photos back to me and the equality was amazing. I was so happy with mt experience I absolutely had to get her to do our newborn photoshoot which was incredible and turned out perfect. She was perfect with my fussy boy and never gave up trying to settle him to get the best photos, we can’t wait to book in with her again for a family shoot. 100% would recommend her to everyone
Sara
Loved working with Charisse, the few sneak peeks of the photos of our newborn and two year old are amazing. Loved how Charisse was able to come to our home for a more intimate and relaxed feel for the shoot. Highly recommended!
Brettany
My maternity shoot experience with Charisse was absolutely incredible. She made us have a natural smile and laugh the whole time. Her work was fantastic and I can’t wait to have our newborn photos.
kritika Sehgal
There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo that Charisse snaps. She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and of course expressions. She was so much energetic , calm and very pleasant with the babies and captured such beautiful photos.I really wonder how she was able to manage everything together.I would never hesitate to recommend her to anyone who wants a true professional to create a customized photography experience.We loved our newborn twin and family photoshoot session.
Hazel Jumat
It was a fun and lovely experience with Charisse. Even with a toddler who keeps poking out her tongue 😁 she managed to capture all the beautiful shots of us! And we received some of our photos the same evening with the final outcome in less than a week. Amazing! Can’t wait to have our newborn shoot soon 😊
Simone Lewis
Charisse was so wonderful to work with. From start to finish everything was so smooth. She is organised, detailed and comforting from the very beginning. Most of the time my kids and I were just playing or talking and she captured those special moments perfectly. As a Mum she know how to talk to kids and was a natural with my boys. I loved every single image. Can’t wait to do another shoot with her.
Emma lewis
My self and twin daughter drove from Hervey Bay to the Gold Coast for a dance competition. I got into touch with Charisse to see if she was abel to slot in a dance shoot of my daughter why we was down there and she made every thing so easy and not only did my daughters enjoy this shoot but they also had Charisse on her toes and also in the water aswell. Would definitely recommend her. And would travel to have more done. Thank you so much for your time and amazing work xx
Jessica Thornbury
We have had many sessions with Charisse and awaiting our next session at the moment. Won’t have anyone else photograph my family. One of the absolute best 🙌🏼
Navi
I had my first family photoshoot with Charisse since my twins are born. She is friendly, have a great knowledge about lighting, location, angle, everything. Better than other photographers i have been recommended and i really recommend her to everyone for any kind of photoshoot. Love you Charisse and looking forward for another shoot soon.
Chaneya
Got our maternity shoot done through Charisse and not only did she make us feel so comfortable but she shot some of the most amazing pics 😍 such a talented photographer who I know will be so successful & will go so far in this industry ❤️ Couldn’t recommend her enough!!
Georgina Tamati
Charisse has taken my maternity photos, newborn (2 months old) shoot and our family shoot as well. From the moment I met her she made me feel comfortable and beautiful behind the camera lens, as I tend to get awkward very quickly. During our family shoot she had us laughing our asses off and we got some beautiful candid shots as neither myself or my partner are very photogenic. Highly recommend Charisse.
Kylie
I cannot recommend Charisse enough. I was feeling very uncomfortable in my skin and nearly cancelled so many times. But she made me feel amazing and I had so much fun. The photos are amazing!
Cloe Evans
Iv now had 3 shoots with Charisse and in session she has produced amazing photos of my family. She is able to put everyone as easy and get down on a level for my kids that really gets them smiling. Id recommend this photographer to anyone and will be using her again.
Sam
Charisse was absolutely amazing to deal with from start to finish. She captured the most perfect newborn photos and was so calming for baby. Very quick response and turnaround time Can’t wait to get all our family photos done with her as our son grows up!
Renae Barton
We were lucky enough to have met Charisse, and have her capture our engagement & some very special family moments. I am not one to like a photo taken of myself, and usually I am the one taking all the photos, but Charisse had a natural ability to make me feel so beautiful, comfortable & carefree. I am so grateful to now have a gallery of precious photos that I will cherish forever; only issue now is I’ll need to make more room for more photos that we will book in for her take!!!
Renae Barton
We were so grateful to have met Charisse & have her capture our engagement, alongside some beautiful family moments. I do not consider myself photogenic, nor do I like the camera to be pointed on me – I’m usually the one taking all the photos, leaving behind no memories of me – but Charisse made very feel beautiful, elegant & carefree. Her attention to detail & passion for photography shines through the photos we received, we could not be happier! And to add to this, my 5yo very energetic little boy was not let’s say, cooperating very well, however Charisse playfully interacted with him & engaged him long enough to capture some beautiful photos. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank her & will be coming back again & again.
Ying
We did the new born in home shoot and Charisse was super accomodating to what we wanted. She was so gentle and patient with our son we even got some family photos. Would use her again and will recommend her to family and friends.
Anna
I had the privilege of working with Charisse a year ago. Very professional and patient with my daughter. She let her play and just followed her around and took very natural pictures that dim Up my daughter’s personaly 100% she even took a few sneaky ones of me with her while I wasn’t looking.
Bonita
Out maternity shoot with Charisse was absolutely perfect! She took some incredible photos, included our dogs and was able to make us feel totally comfortable even though my partner and I don’t normally like getting our photo taken! Highly recommended!
Hirona
We loved our newborn photo session experience with Charisse! She is lovely and friendly person and she knows what to do with babies. My baby was very relaxed with her and slept through almost whole session! It was calm and beautiful time. I’ll definitely offer her again for the next family photo shoot one day!
Kane Liebchen
The photos were fantastic quality and takes the time with the client and kids to make sure we get the best angles, lighting and pictures. Worth the money. It’s been her dream to do photography for a long time so to see her not only achieve the dream at a high level but have the quality photos to back it up is impressive.
Vidya surajbali
My family and I had the pleasure of working with the amazing Charisse and her talent for our family sunset shoot. She was absolutely amazing and so accommodating with our two young boys,she was so hands on and helped everyone feel so comfortable. She knew exactly how to guide us with our pictures but also allowed us to suggest what poses we had in mind. She is an absolute dream to have as a photographer,the pictures are absolutely stunning. We can not recommend her enough. If your looking for a genuine and passionate photographer Charisse is the one ! We can’t wait to have future photography sessions with her.
Jazz
Charisse did a family shoot with myself and my 2 children. The whole session was so light hearted and fun and she made the process so comfortable! She is a phenomenal photographer and the images we received were absolute perfection. Would highly recommend her as my first choice for a go to photographer! ❤️❤️❤️
Erin Wheeldon
Had my first shoot done with Charisse last week and all I can say is WOW! My partner and I are not great in front of the camera lens, but Charisse instantly put us at ease and made the shoot feel calm, and fun! I had spent hours and hours looking for a photographer that was going to show the natural style that I wanted and I couldn’t go further after finding her page on Instagram! We are so thankful we chose Charisse to do our bump photos and are extremely excited to have our newborn shoot with her in the next coming weeks!
Riannon Lewis
I have had a few shoots done with Charisse in the past. Charisse herself and her photography skills are nothing short of amazing! She makes you feel very comfortable and welcome. Shes very down to earth and so easy to work with! I would very highly recommend Charisse and her work! 😊
Ashley
This is just one of the MANY photos I received from Charisse. On a whim I booked her for a family photo shoot and it was the best decision I made because I now have these fun and amazing memories on my wall that I can’t help but smile at! Charisse was so good and patient with my girls and got into the water to get amazing shots! The whole session was amazing and I know when I want new ones I will be going back to Charisse! Thank you lovely 🥰
Grace Pollock
Charisse has been my go-to photographer for years now and every session with her has been amazing! She’s an easy going, Aussie chick who always makes sure you feel comfortable on the other side of the lens. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to capture special memories.
Samantha
I had the pleasure of Charisse taking maternity and newborn photos for our new addition, she is incredible, brings all the outfits for yourself in a maternity shoot and newborn shoot, brings everything to you which is amazing with a newborn you don’t have to leave the house, very professional, quick photo turn around received the whole album so quickly, very happy with the experience both times
Monika Andersen
Charisse was so lovely and super patient when doing a newborn shoot with our 5 week old. She has kids herself so knew all the tricks to settle him during the session. Can’t say how grateful I am that she makes the effort to come to you, as it’s daunting leaving the house when they’re that young (first time mum). Absolutely adore the photos Charisse captured and so happy we got them done! Will reach out to her again for future photo shoots.
Renee
Couldn’t recommend Charisse highly enough – she was so kind and patient with my young children, promptly delivered gallery and always maintained communication throughout the booking and shooting process.

I had such a pleasure meeting with Charisse during my maternity shoot. I highly recommend Charisse as she has a warm and friendly nature. She was very accommodating and understanding with my daughter. Charisse captured the vibe l was going for in my shoot. I throughly enjoy every moment. A deserving 5 stars ⭐️ For service, quality, and fair price. Look forward as a returning client for future shoots.

I was given the chance to get a last minute maternity photoshoot done with Charisse, she was absolutely amazing and made me feel so comfortable and confident without myself. She was incredible with how fast she was able to get my photos done and sent back to me. I couldn’t just stop there I had to get my newborn photos taken by Charisse as well, she was so patient and caring when it came to my little one who at first wouldn’t settle but she was gentle with him and we were able to get the most beautiful photos taken. Again I had my photos all done and back to me super fast. I can’t wait to book in with her again in the future for family photos and more. I can’t thank you enough Charisse

Charisse has taken many of my family photos from when my son was a newborn to a couple years old and they are amazing. There is nothing I could say that is wrong with them. She makes every photo shoot fun and works well with my son to adapt to his moods to get the best shot. I would 100% recommend her to all my friends and can not see myself ever using anyone else.
