Painterly Portraits for the Romantics & Dreamers
Creative, cinematic fantasy photoshoots in Edinburgh and Scotland afar.
Hello, I’m Natalie, an Australian creative photographer living abroad in beautiful Edinburgh, Scotland.
I create painterly, cinematic portraits for romantics, daydreamers, and lovers of fantasy, nature & art.
Images that feel like stills from your favourite stories, novels and films. Inspired by nature, folklore, and imagined worlds. My work blends soft romance with cinematic elements to create photographs that feel timeless, emotive and full of quiet magic. Whether through bespoke fantasy photoshoots, creative portraiture or cinematic couples photoshoots, my goal is simple: to help you step into your story and see yourself as art.
Your Quest Starts Here.
A creative portrait session with me is more than just a photoshoot. Every session is inspired by you, your story, and the inspirations that move you. It’s about celebrating you, trading the usual, stiff portraits for the magical adventure you’ve always dreamed of. It's about telling your story in a way that feels real, timeless, and completely you
From dreaming up the concept to guiding you through the session, I create a space that feels safe, collaborative, and creatively freeing. Every shoot is designed around your intentions and how you want to feel - powerful, soft, romantic, gothic, ethereal, or something entirely your own.
Whether you’re celebrating love, creating art for yourself, or bringing a fantasy concept to life, I’ll be there every step of the way to help you feel seen, supported, and see yourself like the art that you truly are!
“Those Who Don't Believe in Magic Will Never Find It”

Step into your dream story...
Want to frolic through a flower field, weld a sword on a castle tower, haunt a graveyard, run away to the highlands with your love or disappear into the forest and become local folklore (yeah, me too)!? Let's make your dream photoshoot happen! I can't wait to help you feel like you just stepped out of your favourite romantasy novel, gothic movie or renaissance artwork. I can't wait to hear your ideas.
