Vacations gift us the rare space to spend quality time together.

Hold onto these memories through quality photographs on your walls.

Your life at home is busy. Every moment you have together matters – quick chats on the way to school, evening dog walks, or those rare, cherished dinners with everyone around the table.

But a vacation lets you reconnect in a deeper way.

No rushing to after-school activities, no appointments, no meetings—just time to be together, fully present.

You’re excited to stroll past women handcrafting orecchiette in the charming streets of Bari, sail along the coast from Brindisi, and relax as your kids play in the pool at your masseria.

But each of these experiences is really about sharing time together. Bringing you closer.
The limoncello spritz? Just a bonus.

Let’s ensure that no matter how busy life gets, you can look up at your wall and be transported back to the warmth and beauty of Puglia.

With photos that capture not only the magic of your vacation but also the irreplaceable bond you all share.

What to Expect

It’s super relaxed and I guide you through the whole process

Step 1.

SECURE YOUR DATE

It’s important to represent all the personalities in your family so request availability and I’ll give you a quick call to ensure we design an experience to accommodate your children's schedules, recommend appropriate locations and of course, discuss the options for artwork.

Step 2.

THE PHOTOSHOOT

I let your session flow naturally. I photograph in a non-intrusive way that offers just the right amount of guidance as you walk through a medieval village or roll pasta in a private cooking class.

You’ll feel confident, but not overwhelmed and afterwards feel as though you’ve just spent a few hours with a new friend.

Step 3.

ORDERING APPOINTMENT

Only buy the images you love!

Immediately after your shoot, or via Zoom once you are back home, I’ll help you choose the best images and products for your home (and stick to your budget).

Your €1250 booking fee is deducted from your order.

Ciao, I’m Kirstie

Australian expat living her best burrata life

In 2020, I moved to an abandoned farmhouse, known locally as a masseria, just outside Lecce. My husband and I had grand plans to restore his family estate—and I dreamed of creating my first photography studio outside Australia.

While those renovations are still on hold (a story best shared over a glass of Negroamaro), we’ve spent countless days exploring Puglia’s beaches from Otranto to Gallipoli and Punta Prosciutto to Monopoli. We tasted our way through every local gelateria in search of Italy’s best gelato (it’s in Lecce, by the way!) and savored every cheese Puglia is known for.

I know you’re eager for these experiences too, and I’ll happily share all my insider tips during our wardrobe consultation. We’ll chat three weeks before you leave home to finalize your shoot’s details and outfits—each session is completely customized to capture the spirit of your family.

With over a decade of experience, I’ll help you feel relaxed in front of the camera and guide you in selecting the perfect images for your albums and walls, bringing the heart of Puglia into your home.
