Alright, PLEASE can we ditch the pressure of perfect pics?!

Hi, unconventional opinion here (also, hi hi, I’m Dustyn!)…

Family photos aren’t about looking flawless (the kids know our messy buns and all!). It’s about those snuggles, goofball grins, and that golden hour light that makes everything look dreamy.

They love us for the dino-roar sound effects and epic pillow forts, not some posed picture. And hey, down the road, when we’re just stories, these pics will turn into gold.

They’ll see the love in our eyes, the way we squished them tight, and maybe even chuckle at that questionable outfit choice (who knew neon socks and polka dots were a thing?).

These photos won’t be fake fancy, but real moments, soaked in sunshine, that tell the story of our wild, wonderful family.

So let’s soak up the sun, forget about being picture perfect, and capture the magic of just being your fam’s version of “us, together”.

I’ll be there with my camera, ready for the golden moments you can’t get enough of.

Who gives a DAMN? I do.

The Face Behind The Camera

Owner & photographer for DAMN Photographic.

Proud memory catcher and chronic over documenter.

Catching your memories with my lens, for you to treasure for always.

Photography, that’s as unique as you are.

I’m a makeup artist turned photographer, DIDO wife and mum of three, avid reader and succulent lover, based in Mackay, QLD, Australia with a passion for capturing special memories for my clients. I specialize in family, in home, and newborn photography so you can be sure to have beautiful images to cherish for a lifetime.

I strive to make each experience unique and special for everyone involved. I want to capture the details of the moment, and the emotion that comes along with it. That’s why I work in the comfort of your home, or on location. I keep it real, overthink so you don’t have to, and never want to miss a single moment in the frame that might be a core memory unlocked years down the track for your kiddos.

I have been working in the industry for a few years now, and I’m still learning and growing as a photographer. I’m always looking for new ways to add a spark to each session. I believe that everyone has a story, and I’m here to help you tell yours.

We’re in the business of making memories, not magazines, so let’s get you in front of the lens and in the frame!

Can’t wait to “click” with you soon…
