Sydney Harbour Family Photoshoot

Sydney Family Photographer | Portraits at Sydney Harbour

There’s something special about photographing families visiting Sydney for the first time, and Jennifer’s session was no exception. Jennifer and her family travelled from upstate New York to Sydney for a special trip—one that felt like a homecoming for her as she had studied abroad in Australia many moons ago.

This was the first time Jennifer was experiencing the country with her husband and children and she was excited to see Australia with her family. To make the trip even more memorable, they booked a family photography session at the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, capturing their first visit together in the most iconic way.

The stars aligned on the day of their shoot—Sydney turned on its charm with clear blue skies, sparkling harbour views, and the perfect summer breeze. Everyone looked fabulous and soaked in stunning Sydney harbour. We wandered around the harbour, capturing a mix of candid, joy-filled moments and classic family portraits with the Opera House and Harbour Bridge as the perfect backdrop.

We had such a wonderful session together, capturing so many beautiful moments of the family. To top off a great morning, they even treated themselves later in the day to ice cream from Gelato Messina—a true Sydney favourite!

Jennifer & Mark - I hope you love this sneak peek! I can’t wait to share the full gallery with you soon. Although I suspect it might be tough choosing your favourites as there are SO many lovely images of you and the family together! ♡
