Hi, I'm CARLY
As a Perth maternity, newborn, and family photographer, I specialise in creating elegant, heartfelt portraits that beautifully preserve this chapter of your life. With over a decade of experience and advanced training in newborn safety, I ensure a calm, relaxed session where your little one is handled with the utmost care.
My Clarkson studio is thoughtfully designed for comfort, providing a warm and welcoming space for your family’s photography experience.
Your family’s story deserves to be captured with authenticity and artistry. Let’s create heirloom-quality images you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
Elegant, Timeless Photography for Your Most Precious Moments
My journey in working with babies began long before photography. As a qualified childminder, I spent years caring for little ones, developing an intuitive understanding of their cues, needs, and comfort. Combined with specialised training in newborn safety, this experience allows me to handle your baby with expert care, ensuring a calm, seamless session.
I started my career in a London advertising agency, coordinating high-end commercial photoshoots before transitioning into newborn and family photography. Now, I dedicate my work to capturing the fleeting beauty of motherhood and family life, creating images that you will treasure for a lifetime.
Every family’s story is unique, and my goal is to create portraits that go beyond just beautiful images—they tell your story in a way that feels deeply personal, timeless, and filled with love.

People are my passion. I’ve been told I could “chat for England,” and I take that as a compliment! I love getting to know people, making them feel comfortable, and helping them create lasting memories through beautiful photography. It’s more than a job—it’s what I was meant to do.
I have an eye for the little details that turn a fleeting moment into a timeless photograph. Whether it’s capturing the perfect newborn curl, a proud dad’s gaze, or a toddler’s cheeky grin, I instinctively know when to press the shutter to tell your story in the most meaningful way.
I was born and raised in London, UK, but in 2017, my family and I took a leap and moved to Perth. Along with my husband, our three children, and a house full of pets (yes, they made the journey too!), we embraced the Aussie lifestyle, and I’ve never looked back!
Family is everything to me. My husband is my rock, my biggest cheerleader, and a huge support in my business. My kids? They’re my world (and now all taller than me!). I love looking back at their baby photos, reminiscing about how tiny they once were—it’s a big reason why I’m so passionate about capturing memories for other families.
I'm animal obsessed! I have a huge soft spot for animals and dream of one day opening an animal rescue sanctuary. If you want to bring your pets to your photoshoot, I’ll be the first to say YES! They’re family too, and I love including them in sessions.

"My maternity photoshoot experience was absolutely amazing – from the moment I walked into the studio, I felt pampered and confident. The beautiful gowns made me feel like a queen, and Carly truly captured the magic of this special time. The photos are breathtaking, and I now have stunning portraits to cherish as I watch my little one grow. It was such an empowering experience, and I can’t recommend it enough!"

"As first-time parents, we were nervous about how our newborn photos would turn out, especially with our baby being so tiny. But from the moment we arrived, Carly made us feel so comfortable and was incredibly patient, gentle, and made the entire process so easy. The experience was calming, and the results were beyond anything we could have imagined. The portraits captured every little detail of our baby, and we are thrilled with the outcome. We now have timeless, stunning portraits that we’ll cherish forever. We couldn’t be happier and can’t recommend Carly enough!"
BROOKE LOCKHART
"Carly was highly recommended to me through friends and family who had previously experienced photoshoots with her, and she did not disappoint! Carly was very professional and understanding throughout the entire process. Her warm and friendly personality allowed us to quickly settle during our session and as a result Carly captured many stunning images of our family. Carly was amazing with my energetic 6 and 3 year old children, and we all enjoyed the photoshoot session. Thank you for capturing these precious memories for us Carly, we look forward to working with you again in the future.”
