I know I know, IG story saw it first 👀 Everything about this shoot was just *chef's kiss* ✨ #womensempowerment #boudoir #womensupportingwomen #photographer #beachshoot

Young lovers in the rain ☂️ #coupleshoot #photographer #photography #blackandwhitephotography #rainphotoshoot

As much as I don't describe myself as a wedding photographer, there is something so special about being chosen to capture these moments ✨❤️ #elopement #beachwedding #photographer

This picture reminds me a lot of how I used to photograph back when I was 13/14, always went for the spooky contrast, eerie moments in between things. Funny that adventures at 28, feel almost like adventures that were had at 14 when you're living your teenage dream 📸 #photographer #travel #blackandwhitephotography

Stormy weather incoming ⛈️ #boudoir #selflove #photographer #photography #womensempowerment

Are you blooming in 2025? ❇️ #photographer #travel

We all know that the cost of living is sky rocketing, at what feels like a daily basis. In addition to this, if you know me - you know that I want a big, adventurous and rewarding life! ✨🎉 For this reason, I have secured part-time employment again within Brisbane. I am very fortunate that my new employer has been incredibly flexible with my existing travel & bookings. Photography continues to be my passion - and I am in no way shape or form hanging up the camera, by returning to work it actually ensures that I can continue to grow the business! However, with this change, there does come a few adjustments to the hours in which I will operate. Admin Hours: Tuesday to Friday: 5.00pm to 8.00pm Saturday: 9.00am to 4.00pm Custom Photoshoot Hours: Monday: 7:00am to 6.00pm Saturday: 7:00am to 6.00pm Sunday: 3:00pm to 6.00pm Events Hours: Friday: 6.00pm to 10:00pm Saturday: 7:00am to 10:00pm Sunday: 9:00am to 8:00pm Coffee Consultations & Social Media Refresh Photoshoots are still available to be booked, however, you will need to request the booking link from me. As always, I welcome messages - if you can't find a suitable time, please reach out and I will see what can be done for you. I have done my best to ensure all opening hours, the booking system and away messages are correct. I do appreciate your understanding in this transitional time. Love, M x #businessupdate #smallbusinessowner #photographer

It's a slower start to this year, however, I'm enjoying my time exploring and taking time to slow down! #photographer #blackandwhitephotography #travel

This seemed to resonate with a few people, so I thought I'd pop it on IG as a reel too ✨ #instareels #quote #lessonslearned #2024recap #grief #loss #newbeginnings #freshstart

Reviewing 2024 albums, I found so many images that I fell back in love with. This image to me shouts the beauty and freedom of being a woman in modern times. #beach #boudoir #womensupportingwomen #businessowner #photographer #photography #beachshoot

It's the first official week back, things are slowly starting to pick back up! I hope you're all surviving ✨ #familyphotography #businessowner #familyphotographer #qldphotography #queenslandphotographer #brisbanephotographer

Do I do videography? 🎥 Well, yes & no! I am hired to capture the big and small moments, in photo form. However, in moments where time allows - I will take small clippings as keepsakes for my clients. This is just a freebie, if it feels like the right thing! I by no means can offer it to all unfortunately. Different events come with different time constraints. #wedding #memories #instareels #queenslandphotographer #weddingday #explorepage

What does a typical day in the life look like for me? Here's the thing - no two days ever actually look the same! So here's a little preview on a day that's predominantly photography services focused 📸 This is also what a photoshoot with @holliegreen_financebroker from @moni_finance_group looks like 😂 Photoshoot, file management, editing, cleaning my camera & a freshly formatted memory card. Some days are more admin based: reconciling accounts, invoicing, creating social media content or reviewing reports. What does your day look like as a business owner? #bizownerlife #queenslandphotographer #photographer #ditl #explorepage #businessowner #photography #instareels

I would love to say I'm headed home to sleep, but I'll get off my flight on Sunday and be heading straight to Good Things! #photography #petphotography #blackandwhitephotography #smallbusiness #qldphotography #qldphotographer #queenslandphotographer

MR & MRS DANCE | 16 NOVEMBER 2024 This wedding was a long time coming, with Kaela & Oden choosing me as their wedding photographer back in November of last year. Safe to say I was OBSESSED with all the bright florals. It was such a happy and wholesome wedding to have the honour of playing a role in. I don't often advertise as a wedding photographer specifically, however if you like my style and we are a good fit, I absolutely can cover your wedding day 🥰 THE DETAILS ↓ MUA: @hollymaesbeauty Hair: @lisettebellhair Photographer: @memories.by.mia #wedding #weddingphotography #weddingphotographer #photographer #photography #blackandwhitephotography

Your Monday Motivation 💭 #quote #travel #motivation

Can you believe this photoshoot was almost a year ago? Before there was a booking system, before my camera gear was upgraded, before a new computer was purchased! Very much fumbling my way through shoots back then. So much has changed and so much continues to change. It wouldn't have been made possible without these first few customers that helped make this dream come true ✨ #poledancer #photography #thankyou

Thanks @voidmatterband for putting your trust in me to capture some images for all your upcoming news 🤫 You may know that I'm a little biased when it comes to VM, however, I've always been a fan of their music, passion and dedication to their art, fans & the music scene as a whole.

I'm back to my reels (after a few months hiatus)! Have we been enjoying this semi chill/inspo vibe? #quotes #motivationalquotes #motivation #instareels #instadaily #photography #success #florals #flowers

It's hard to pinpoint exactly when a business anniversary falls... was it when I got my first camera? Was it when I registered the business name? Was it at that moment I confidently called myself a photographer? I'll never really know. Regardless of whichever day or year it all fell upon, August 2023 was the first time I charged for services. It was the first time I truly believed in myself and what I could be. It has been such a wild journey from that point onwards. A huge thanks to @yaspowerbeauty & @desirebeautyacademy who was my first client, and still continues to be a client. I would love to have a piece of perfectly scripted advice for you all if you're looking to start or continue your journey into business ownership... however, when you learn daily, there is no concise message. So here's a handful of very simple pieces of advice: 1. Do the thing that sets your soul on fire. 2. Believe in yourself, back yourself. 3. Don't worry about what everyone else is doing. 4. Grow a genuine support network. 5. Don't forget to pay yourself some superannuation. Oh bonus one, learn to post at normal times & actually sleep. Drop a comment if you can see yourself in this lil montage ✨🫶👇 #explore #explorepage #instareels #reelsinstagram #photographer #photography #businessowner #smallbusiness #oneyearjourney #anniversary

From me, to younger me ✨ If you're an aspiring creator in any way, don't give up, don't leave yourself waiting in the world of what if I jumped at it. Keep dreaming. Keep learning. Stay reasonable with your choices, it's a tough world out there. Just keep working towards what sparks the fire in your soul. #messagetoself #smallbusinesssupport #smallbusinessowner #queensland #photographer #instareels #instadaily #explorequeensland
