Turning 40 in Sydney with the Opera House as your backdrop? Yes please. Jane flew in from the USA to celebrate her milestone birthday and what a way to mark it - an early morning Sydney birthday photoshoot right on the harbour with her husband by her side.
This is honestly one of my favourite things about what I do. Meeting visitors from overseas and getting to show off this gorgeous harbour city of mine - it never gets old. I have been photographing portraits at Sydney Harbour for years and the Opera House and Harbour Bridge backdrop genuinely never gets tired. Sydney is one of those places people dream of visiting and to be the person who captures their memories here is such a privilege.
For Jane, flying all the way from the USA to celebrate her 40th in Sydney made the whole session feel extra special. The harbour was at its sparkling best and Sydney absolutely delivered.
Jane it was such a joy to spend that morning with you and your husband down at the harbour. I hope you love this sneak peek and there are plenty more images to come in your full gallery and I can't wait to share them with you. Hopefully they bring back great memories of your Sydney birthday celebration. What a way to turn 40 - here's to the next decade! ♡

The Sydney Harbour area is hard to beat - the Opera House and Harbour Bridge together create an iconic backdrop that is instantly recognisable and endlessly beautiful. Early morning is the best time for soft light and fewer crowds making it perfect for a relaxed and unhurried session.
Absolutely. Sydney is one of the world's most photogenic cities and the harbour in particular offers a stunning setting for portrait sessions. Whether you are celebrating a 30th, 40th, 50th or beyond it makes for a truly special and memorable experience.
