Kind words from clients
“She captured our family so beautifully, and the photos truly reflect the love and joy of the occasion.”
★★★★★ · Recent Family Session
“There are so many photographers out there, but we wanted someone close to home for my parents and also reasonably priced — and Holly Emma Photography was absolutely perfect.
This is something my mother had been wanting for some time, so having these photos taken for her 80th birthday was very special, especially with family visiting from overseas.
We were a group of 11 adults and 2 children, and Holly made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the session. Holly was also very accommodating with wherever we wanted to go for the photos, which made the whole experience even easier and more enjoyable.
She captured our family so beautifully, and the photos truly reflect the love and joy of the occasion. My mother is absolutely thrilled with the results, and we will treasure these memories forever. We highly recommend her!”
“From beginning to end, Holly was amazing.”
★★★★★ · Ben K. · Extended Family Session
“I have had the pleasure of having Holly photograph our family twice. The first time was with my wife’s family and the second time, my sister and I arranged an extended family shoot for my mum for Christmas.
From beginning to end, Holly was amazing. She worked with us to photograph my family at a location which is special to all of us and was amazing with the 5 grandkids, including 3 under the age of 3.
She was extremely responsive from first enquiring with her to sending through the final pictures, which we all think are incredible. I would not hesitate to recommend Holly to any of my family or friends.”
“She made the experience comfortable and fun.”
★★★★★ · Kirstie S. · Extended Family Session
“My brother, sister and I arranged an extended family photo shoot to give to our parents for Christmas. Arranging the shoot from interstate meant there was a lot of backwards and forwards email correspondence with Holly. I found her extremely responsive and helpful.
Wrangling 10 people on the day, Holly made the experience comfortable and fun, and we all walked away saying how great it was. The photos were processed quickly and Holly provided updates throughout.
We are so pleased we did the shoot and we love the moments that Holly captured. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Holly to anyone looking for a fantastic photographer that makes the experience fun and comfortable.”
“Calm, warm and friendly.”
★★★★★ · Heidi H. · Maternity Session

“Every photo is exceptional.”
★★★★★ · Rajendra P. · Storytelling Session
“We booked a family photoshoot with Holly a couple of weeks ago. My goal was to fill around 20 frames I had purchased and hung in our living room. But Holly gave us big trouble with the final output… surprised us in the best way possible with over 80 stunning photos from the storytelling session.
Now I’m struggling to choose the top shots because every photo is exceptional. Holly isn’t just a photographer, she’s an artist with immense passion for her craft, and it shows in every frame.
We’re truly looking forward to capturing more memories through her lens and experiencing her beautifully hand edited work that transforms each image into something magical.”
