❤️ Why I wanted to do this

Mother’s Day has a way of bringing something to the surface for a lot of families.

That quiet realisation that Mum is usually the one taking the photos.
The one making sure everyone else is included.
The one keeping track of all the little moments.

And somehow, she’s often the one missing from the frame.

This giveaway is a lovely excuse to change that.

Not with something rushed or generic, but with photographs that actually mean something — the kind that end up on walls, on shelves, and woven into everyday family life.

Because these aren’t just photos for now.
They’re part of your family story.

A little Mother’s Day surprise for one lucky family

If family portraits have been sitting in the “one day” basket for a while, this could be a lovely reason to finally do something about it.

And if not for you, maybe for a mum, grandmother, or mum-to-be you know would love this.

Entries are open now and close on Saturday 9th May 2026.

Hi! I’m Sam

I’m a family portrait photographer here in Launceston, and I believe family photos should feel natural, relaxed, and truly you.

I’ll probably spend half the session making silly faces to get your kids laughing, and if you bring your dog, I’ll be your new best friend. 🐾

My goal? To create portraits you’ll love seeing every day in your home — and that your kids will feel proud to be in.

What Others had to say

  • A smiling family of three sitting on a brown leather couch in a living room with large windows showing trees outside. The mother has long dark hair and is wearing a floral dress, the father has short dark hair and is wearing a black shirt, and their young son in a green sweater is standing between them with his arms around their shoulders. There is a stuffed animal and a plant visible on the couch and windowsill.

    Sam has taken photos of our family consecutively for six years now – maternity to five year old and we will continue to have photos done with her every year. We have the most incredible pictures hanging on our wall that is the first thing people comment on as soon as they walk into our home. Sam is professional, warm and has always made us feel comfortable. She goes above and beyond to make sure that the pictures we got captured the essence of our family and were exactly what we wanted. There is something special about having amazing moments captured in time in a way that not many people have the gift to be able to do. It’s what keeps us coming back!

    Emma

  • A family of four enjoying time outdoors, with two young children sitting on a large mossy rock, a woman in a pink dress and a man in a white shirt smiling at the children.

    Absolutely adore all of our photos taken by Samantha! She’s been our family photographer for years and we wouldn’t go elsewhere! If you’re wanting photos that you won’t cringe at in 10 years time (ok be real, you’ll still cringe at your haircut!) then she’s the way to go! Edited to perfection and not over edited, you will have memories to fondly look back on for years to come!

    Tegan

  • A young child crawling on a couch with a smiling family of three in the background near a large window with greenery outside.

    Samantha creates the most beautiful photos. She is so lovely to work with and makes even the most awkward people (yes, including me) feel comfortable in front of the camera. She works to make everything personalized to your family which captures the most amazing memories. Sam is the photographer you need!

    Lucy

  • Family of six walking hand-in-hand on a dirt path through a wooded park, with a log cabin in the background.

    Sam has photographed our family twice now and will continue to be our first choice for years to come. Her ability to make everyone comfortable shows in her stunning photographs and we are so happy with all of our pictures. Sam’s genuine warmth and excitement makes her a hit with the youngest family members (even the wild child, we all have one) Do yourself a favour and book in now, you won’t regret it
