Our journey starts with a conversation to find out what your goals are and to make sure I'm the right photographer for you. Online or in person, whichever suits your schedule.
My session fee starts at 350. Clients then go on to purchase albums, wall art and digital images.
Please get in touch for more information.
In collaboration with local floral artist, Heather May Grow and other local legends, I'm excited to offer a simple, customisable wedding service in the Upper Yarra Valley.
Pricing starts at 3000.
Life events
Do you run a business in the Yarra Ranges? I can help you connect with your clients by creating authentic images that communicate who you are and what you do.
I'd love to help you! Please get in touch and we can get the ball rolling.

If you want a photographer who truly blends into the background while capturing every beautiful moment of your event, look no further than Gathoni. She has a remarkable ability to be present without ever being intrusive—you won't even realise she's there, except for the occasional cheeky smile and knowing glance. I couldn't have wished for a better wedding photographer. Gathoni somehow captured everything and everyone, perfectly encapsulating the essence of the day.
I'm not someone who enjoys posed pictures, but there was a moment when Gathoni gently asked me to step away with her into the garden. I was hesitant at first, but I'm so glad I trusted her. If she invites you to step aside for a moment, take her up on it—believe me, it's worth it.
Gathoni is worth every single cent. She was like an old friend at our wedding—an old soul who is beautiful, graceful, and exceptionally talented at what she does. Don't hesitate for a second—book her now. You won't regret it.

Gathoni created some beautiful photos of me, and I use the word create purposefully as she brought so much insight, energy and beauty to the process. I am a reluctant subject but Gathoni had me feeling at ease and actually enjoying the process quickly. She offers gentle encouragement and great tips on how to be your best self. When I first saw the images I felt tears of joy and amazement. She captured me in the most natural way, true to myself and my essence. I asked for headshots/portraits that were professional, yet individual, and she honoured me in a way that I am proud to share. Her ability to capture the light of a winter’s afternoon, and nature as a poetic backdrop, define her as a creative and sensitive photographer that I am proud to recommend. I’ve had such positive comments on my photos and had my expectations exceeded!

An invaluable experience; having an outsider looking in. As humans and parents, we doubt ourselves. This photoshoot allowed us to take a step back from the chaos of raising young children and gave us the opportunity to see what we often miss: the beauty of a family, doing life together.

"i hope you know what a gigantic impact you are having on the people/families you photograph. Not only are you capturing such significant moments in time, but you are gifting joy, absolute presence in the moment, and gratitude for what we have. You remind us what we have. It’s total magic, and such a massive gift.
