Where Art Meets Ocean, and Your Inner Mermaid Awakens
Hey beautiful soul!
There's something absolutely magical that happens when you slip beneath the surface – suddenly you're not just having photos taken, you're discovering who you've always been. That weightless feeling? That's your inner mermaid finally getting to breathe.
I'm Amanda, your part-time mermaid, full-time ocean obsessed photographer, and I'm here to capture the magic that happens when you connect with the water's ancient rhythm.
For the Woman Ready to Dive Deep
Whether you're growing a little human and want to celebrate this incredible journey, marking a milestone that deserves to be remembered, or you're simply ready to see yourself as the absolute goddess you are – the ocean reveals parts of your story that dry land just can't touch.
The Underwater Maternity Magic
Can we talk about how incredible your body is right now? You're literally creating life, and the water? It gets it. It holds you, supports you, celebrates with you.
Picture this: You're floating effortlessly, your beautiful bump leading the way, fabric flowing around you like liquid poetry. The water catches the light, you catch your breath, and I catch these moments that will make you cry happy tears for decades to come.
These aren't just photos – they're love letters to this incredible chapter of your story.
Personal Portrait Sessions That Awaken Your Soul
Ready to meet the mermaid who's been living inside you all along?
The water doesn't lie. It strips away all the noise, all the "shoulds," all the ways you think you need to be, and reveals the truth – you're absolutely magnificent. These sessions are about coming home to yourself, celebrating every curve and story line, and creating art that makes your heart sing every time you see it.
Because here's what I know after years of diving deep with incredible women like you – when you connect with the ocean, you connect with something ancient and powerful within yourself. And that? That's pure magic worth capturing.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How long do I need to be able to hold my breath?
A: Great news – you don't need to be a freediving expert! Most shots require holding your breath for just 5-10 seconds at a time. As a qualified freediver and prenatal yoga teacher with 10+ years of experience, I'll guide you through gentle breathing techniques and work at your comfort level. We take plenty of breaks, and I'm skilled at capturing beautiful moments even during shorter breath holds.
Q: I don't really want to go too deep – is that okay?
A: Absolutely! Most of our underwater magic happens in shallow water – typically 1-2 meters deep. You'll always be able to easily surface, and I work within your comfort zone. Many stunning shots are captured just beneath the surface where you feel completely safe and in control.
Q: Do you have a nice heated pool if it's cold?
A: Yes! I work with several heated pool locations around Perth to ensure your comfort year-round. The pools are maintained at a comfortable temperature, and I provide luxury robes and towels. Your comfort is my priority – no chattering teeth allowed!
Q: Can I bring my partner and kids, and the dog?
A: I love when families want to be part of the magic! Partners and children are absolutely welcome to come and join in on the fun. However, for the majority of our time together I really love to focus on YOU. I’m passionate about women seeing themselves as the main character, and I want you to know - IT’S ALL ABOUT YOU! As for your furry friend – while I adore dogs, pool venues typically don't allow pets, but let's chat about your specific situation!
🤰 MATERNITY SPECIFIC
Q: Is underwater photography safe during pregnancy? A: With my 10+ years as a prenatal yoga teacher, I understand pregnant bodies intimately. Underwater photography is generally safe for healthy pregnancies, but I always recommend getting clearance from your healthcare provider first. We work gently, take frequent breaks, and I'm trained to support you throughout the experience.
Q: What's the best time during pregnancy for underwater photos? A: The sweet spot is typically between 28-36 weeks when your beautiful bump is prominent but you're still comfortable moving in water. However, every pregnancy is different, and we can work together to find your perfect timing.
Q: What if I'm not a confident swimmer? A: No worries at all! You don't need to be an Olympic swimmer. I'm there to guide and support you, and we work in shallow, controlled environments. Many of my clients aren't strong swimmers, and they create absolutely stunning images.
📸 TECHNICAL DETAILS
Q: What should I wear? A: I provide styling guidance, but flowing fabrics work beautifully underwater – think goddess gowns, flowing dresses, or elegant maternity wear. I can recommend specific pieces that photograph beautifully and move gracefully in water. Or, if your totally okay with semi or full nudity - I am too!
Q: How long does a session take? A: Sessions typically run 1-2 hours, including preparation time, multiple outfit changes, and plenty of rest breaks. We work at your pace – there's never any rushing.
Q: When will I see my photos? A: You'll receive a sneak peek within 48 hours (because I know you'll be dying to see them!), with your full gallery delivered within 4-6 weeks. Each image is hand-edited as a piece of art.
💰 INVESTMENT & BOOKING
Q: What's included in the session fee? A: Your session includes pre-consultation, professional underwater equipment, styling guidance, the full photography experience, luxury amenities, and hand-edited artistic images. Full package details are provided upon inquiry.
Q: How far in advance should I book? A: These specialized sessions book months in advance! I recommend booking as soon as you know you want to create this magic, especially for maternity sessions where timing is important.
Q: Do you travel for sessions? A: Absolutely! I travel throughout Western Australia and internationally for the right projects. Travel fees apply for locations outside the Perth metro area.
🏊♀️ SAFETY & COMFORT
Q: What safety measures do you have in place? A: As a qualified freediver with extensive water experience, safety is paramount. I'm trained in water safety, work with professional equipment, and always have safety protocols in place. Sessions are conducted in controlled environments with proper supervision.
Q: What if I panic underwater? A: It's completely normal to feel nervous! I'll guide you through relaxation techniques, and we start very gently. You're always in control, and we can surface anytime you need to. My prenatal yoga background helps me create a calm, supportive environment.
