I work on location in Melbourne, creating natural portraits of babies, children and families, either at your home or outdoor locations. Nothing delights me more than to present you with photographs that fill your heart with love and pride for your children. Pebbles Photography is now 13 years old.

I love meeting new families, and I am so proud and grateful for the many happy clients I have photographed again and again.it is a joy and a privilege to be invited back every year or two as the family grows.I have a wonderful husband and two teenage boys. As each year passes I treasure all the photos we have of the boys when they were little (and cuter!).the framed portraits all over our home remind me of what matters and how fast time goes by.

Selfishly I didn’t want to write this review because if you all find out how brilliant Fran is then she may get too busy and I could have difficulty booking her again next year. I’m so grateful to Fran for the amazing package of family photos she has given us (which I will treasure forever) that I felt obligated to tell you the honest truth about how talented she truly is. In the past we have had family photos sessions with different photographers and I’ve found them stressful and never really been happy with the shots we’ve gotten at the end. This time was very different and we were absolutely

I would absolutely recommend Pebbles Photography. Fran was fantastic to deal with. As a first time mum I was extra pedantic about my newborn shoot and Fran catered to my every need. In the lead up she communicated with me regularly and answered all of my questions. On the day she was extremely patient and spent a long time ensuring we captured every shot that we wanted. Fran gave me plenty of time so we could stop for feeds and nappy changes when needed. She was also excellent with my newborn, settled her well and knew exactly how to get her in the right positions for photos.
The session was well

Fran was absolutely fantastic with our baby girl. She made everyone feel comfortable and was very patient with us when we had to take feeding breaks. My baby girl felt so comfortable that she even fell asleep - at 10 weeks old we were expecting that at all. The price and quality of the pictures are great. I like that the pictures taken weren't too cliché and she was able to capture my baby's personality. These pictures will be cherished for years to come.

This is the second time we have had Fran out to take beautiful newborn photos and we are once again just delighted with the moments she captured. We cherished the newborn photos of our firstborn she took 3 years ago and knew that our second child’s photos would be more challenging with a 3year old sibling to keep us all very busy! But Fran was wonderful, she accommodated all our requests including sneaking in some photos with grandparents. She handled our rambunctious toddler with energy and managed to get some beautiful moments of our boys together. She went above and beyond, I would absolutely

Fran is an excellent photographer! She is wonderful with children of all ages and is particularly good with newborns. I have had both my daughters newborn photos done by her and I highly recommend her services. She is patient and professional. Excellent value for money and provides digital photos with a quick turnaround time, either electronically or via a beautiful keepsake USB. Thank you Fran for your service!

We had a fantastic experience with Fran at Pebbles Photography & highly recommend her. Fran was lovely to work with, professional and organised, as well as being incredibly accommodating and patient with our infant daughter. We were very happy with the quality of the photos and will definitely be calling on her for future sessions.

I highly recommend Fran for newborn photography - she was absolutely amazing with our little boy who was only 10 days old at the time. We were extremely happy with the photos/setup/props and definitely value for money. More importantly, Fran was very gentle with our little boy, kept him calm and even took care of him throughout the day whilst taking the photos - as new parents, Fran noticed how exhausted we were and let us sit back and rest and simply enjoy the overall experience. Fran’s “customer service” was impressive and you don’t see that too often with these types of services. I would

We used Pebbles Photography to take shots of our 1 year old daughter. Everyone knows how difficult it is to photograph toddlers but Fran did a fantastic job in keeping our daughter engaged. The photographs taken were amazing - we absolutely love them. We highly recommend Fran.
