Hi! I'm Jodie

I don’t want you to just “see your images, but rather feel them.”

I'm a coffee addict, connection seeker & mama of 3 beautiful humans I get to call my own!

I’m that gal with a camera who is obsessed with everything raw and real! 

High school dropout… with a dream! It was either midwife or photographer (I became a doula and then a photographer)

Hey mama, I’m Jodie – mama of three crazy humans! #nootherway

I have the honour of documenting real life, real connection the honest, and the raw! The what you see at home!

My beautiful clients come to me because they are craving anything but the cookie-cutter posed images that can be found all over the interweb.  I’m talking about Images that make you FEEL something! In reality, this way of capturing your life moments will take you back to that moment – forever into the future!

 I’m talking about the smell, the emotion, how you felt in that moment,  yes… the human senses – those things beyond faces in a picture.  

I’m that girl with a camera who is obsessed with creating your memories with you, not for you!

I’ll tell you why this is my purpose and now how I bring this to my client’s hearts, homes, and walls and how you are now blessed through my experience.

It all started with a diagnosis of my son Jordan that had my world crashing down in 2010, where the human connection got lost (for a few years until we learned how to teach him to feel the emotions)!  At the time I felt robbed of hugs, dreams crushed, a boy who wouldn’t look at me or couldn’t even call me mum, but would smell my hair to connect with me! #noperfectpicturehere

I threw myself into creating lifetime memories for others the type of memories I craved but couldn’t have with my very own little one! 

This is the reason connection is so important to me and at the core of my purpose for my clients for you who are reading this.  It’s the reason Umbilical LOVE was born!

With a lot of intervention, things look completely different now and I’m so grateful for the hugs and simple I love you, mama! #perfectiontom

That is why Umbilical Love is so much more than a local household brand but it brings your love between you and your loved ones actual meaning rather than a pretty picture.

I’m so honoured to have been embraced by my local community since 2012 and I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to do this for you too! 

Let’s connect and see how together we can create magic – your magic within your hearts.

Much Love, Jodie Louise xox

Capturing the pure essence of new life.
