Meet Ella
Photographer in South West Victoria
"To show up imperfectly but open to change,
is better than not showing up at all."
- A WISE WOMAN
Hello, I'm Ella.
I'm your Warrnambool-based photographer seeking out the best sunset locations ... but more than that, I really care about how you feel in front of the camera.
After 5 years in the wedding industry, I hit burnout and took a step back.
Not because I stopped loving photography, but because I needed to find my way back to why I loved it in the first place.
It wasn't the timelines and pressure and perfection I was looking for. It was the connection with people that I really missed.
Now I focus on:
empowerment photography for women
maternity sessions that feel like therapy
and pressure-free family portraits
All with the same intention: making the experience just as enjoyable as the outcome.
I promise I won't leave you standing there wondering what to do with your hands.
I'll get to know you, guide you, and hype you up to the point you will actually begin to believe you really are a magical unicorn worthy of amazing things.
Because you are.
