The Schoolhouse

A Beautifully Curated Townsville Photography Studio That Feels Like Home

Welcome to the Studio

A calm and thoughtfully curated Townsville photography studio for your family’s most precious moments.

Step inside my private studio, lovingly custom-built right behind my home here in Townsville. Known as The Schoolhouse, this beautifully restored guest house was once a real schoolhouse, and now it’s a peaceful, light-filled space where I get to do what I love most: capturing heartfelt, timeless photographs of growing families.

The studio is styled with earthy textures and a soft, neutral palette to create a calming atmosphere where you can instantly feel at ease. From the moment you arrive, this is your time to slow down, breathe, and feel cosy while I take care of the rest.

Inside the studio, you’ll find everything you need for a relaxed and beautiful maternity, newborn, or family photography session:

  • A fully equipped studio with natural, timeless props

  • A lovingly curated wardrobe for babies

  • A stunning collection of dresses for mums

  • Professional studio lighting so we can create beautiful images (even on dark, rainy days)

Whether you’re here for newborn photography in Townsville, a maternity photoshoot, or family portraits, my studio offers a soft and inviting environment where your story can unfold naturally.

I’ve designed every corner with comfort, simplicity, and connection in mind, so you can focus on what matters most: just being together.

I can’t wait to welcome you here.

Let’s create something beautiful.
