A black and white photo of a happy family outdoors. The mother is kissing her baby, who is being held by another person, possibly the father. The scene shows affection and joy.

I’m Hayley, the heart behind Bodhi Inspired Photography,

I’m a wife to my amazing husband Brad, mum to my beautiful little boy Bodhi, and someone who believes the most meaningful photographs are often found in the quiet, ordinary moments.

I have always had a love for taking photos and capturing moments particularly candid, joyful, times to look back on. However i have a whole new perspective on the value and treasured nature of a photo, since having my son. I never looked back on photos i have taken like I do now. The speed in which he grows and changes amazes me and terrifies me all at once. Photos are the one thing that can preserve these versions of my baby, my family and myself in a snapshot in time, that will last forever.

This is something I believe all mums and families deserve.

More than just pretty photos.

I know being in front of a camera can feel a little intimidating, especially with little ones. That's why my sessions are relaxed, playful and completely pressure-free.

Rather than focusing on perfect poses, I'll gently guide you while leaving plenty of room for genuine connection. The cuddles, laughter, movement and little in-between moments are often the ones you'll treasure most.

A few things about me…

I’d love to tell your story.

Whether you're celebrating a new baby, documenting your growing family or simply wanting to remember this season exactly as it is, I'd be honoured to capture it.
