Engagement Mini Sessions
Perfect for couples who want beautiful photos together before their wedding day.
Engagement mini sessions are short, relaxed shoots designed to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera while capturing natural, romantic photos you’ll treasure for years.
Many couples tell me their wedding day portraits felt far more relaxed because they already knew how I guide and photograph them.
A relaxed, fun way to celebrate your engagement.
Yes — dogs are welcome as long as they are friendly and kept on leash.
Many couples love including their dog for a few photos.
Almost every couple says this at the start.
My job is to guide you through the entire session so you never feel unsure what to do. Most of the photos come from natural movement and interaction, rather than stiff posing.
By the end, most couples say “that was actually really fun.”
You can choose from three beautiful outdoor locations:
• Bribie Island Beach – relaxed coastal photos with ocean views
• Glasshouse Mountains / Beerburrum Forestry – tall trees and beautiful golden light
• North Harbour Field (Burpengary East) – open grassy fields with mountain views
Each location offers a slightly different look, so you can choose the setting that suits your style.
Sessions are scheduled around sunset to capture the most beautiful natural light.
Neutral colours photograph beautifully in natural outdoor locations.
Think whites, creams, earthy tones or soft pastels.
Avoid large logos or busy patterns.
Once you're booked, I’ll send through a style guide to help you choose outfits that photograph beautifully.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dan + Grace
From the moment we met Kayla, we knew we were in the best hands. Our engagement shoot was the first time either of us had been professionally photographed, and she made it feel so comfortable, natural and genuinely enjoyable.
Kayla guided us through the whole session with clear direction and encouragement, creating a relaxed atmosphere where we could laugh and simply enjoy the moment together.
We didn’t realise at the time how much that experience would help us on our wedding day. Because of Kayla, we walked in already knowing how to breathe, how to feel comfortable in front of a camera, and what to expect.
There was no awkwardness — just confidence, calm and trust. It made the entire day feel smoother and so much more enjoyable.
Kayla is incredibly talented and professional. She doesn’t just take beautiful photos — she supports you, prepares you and brings out the best in you.
We are so grateful for her kindness, her guidance and the way she captured such important moments in our lives.
We couldn’t recommend her more highly.
