I capture genuine pockets of joy because that's where the magic lives.
The moments when your family forgets the camera is there.
Hi, I’m Tori. Photographer, mum of three, and completely at home in the beautiful chaos that is family life.
I take the photos so you don’t have to. Because let’s be honest, you’re usually the one behind the camera, juggling everyone else’s needs and trying to actually be in the moment at the same time.
I’m not here to make your family look like anyone else’s. I’m here to photograph you as you are, your people, your rhythms, your everyday life at home.
Three things you might not know about me...
I never say no to a strong flat white — extra hot, always.
Once upon a time I was a professional dancer. I’ve still got the jazz hands to prove it!
I love an op-shop rummage. I usually walk in for a “quick look” and leave with a baby knit, a vase, and mild regret. (Just kidding — no regrets!)
How I ended up with a camera in my hand
Before photography, I spent years dancing professionally. Being creative has always been part of me.
But this, documenting real families, real connection, real life as it actually is, this is what fills my cup.
There’s nothing like giving a mum a photo where she actually sees herself in the frame. Not behind it. Not posed. Just in the moment, with her favourite people.
That’s why I do this.
It felt like we had an old friend just dropping by, rather than a photoshoot!

There is no time more perfect than now.
