Sarah and Bec Sister Shoot at The Haven- Central Coast Portrait Photography

Sarah and Bec need no introduction, Ive taught Sarah dancing at Art Dance Academy for the past couple of years (http://artdanceacademy.weebly.com/ ) So we had no trouble getting stuck into the photo shoot, no ice breakers required! The girls came to the Imagine Images studio first for some mini make overs, and then it was straight to the Terrigal to make the most of the beautiful winter sun, I am just loving these crisp, sunny winter days! The shoot was very cuddly and giggly and it was so nice to see two sisters get along so well, Im sure it might be a different story on some days, but for the purpose of the photo shoot they where angels!

So i was excited about this shoot from the beginning, Kimberley had so my ideas and images to draw inspiration from that I knew this shoot would be special. We went up to a sneaky spot ive found in Somesby, and even though we where fighting to get enough light, it was the best light  I could have asked for. Kimberley and Shane are due to be married this September, and from what ive gathered, the Wedding is going to be inspired by all things vintage, much like there engagement shoot, I am super excited to see what they come up with- such creatively will only make for an amazing wedding!

Engagement photo shoots with Imagine Images are complimentary with any wedding booking :)

Gail's Glamour Shoot - Imagine Images Central Coast Portrait Photography

 I had met Gail a couple of time along the wedding trail, I photographer her friends (Mel and Nat :) weddings recently, and she really is such a lovely girl, so I was stoked when I found out she had been given a gift voucher as a present for a glamour photo shoot. I called in Jaime Sherrah (who is an amazing hair and makeup artist) to give me a hand for the shoot, I had big plans for Gail! We started out on location (at Spoon Bay) which is one of my favorite spots on the Central Coast at the moment. We some how managed to get her strung up on the hammock chair, and she even volunteered to climb a massive tree- all in the name of great photo! After a costume change at the beach we headed back the Imagine Images studio to finish up with some studio images- here is a little sneak peak of what we got up to.... stay tuned for some more!!

In the Name of Love- Valentines Day Couple Shoot and Engagement Sessions with Imagine Images Central Coast Photographer

Love is in there and a perfect way to celebrate is with a photo shoot of you and your special someone! Are you looking for a photo shoot with a little more pizazz? Here are some ideas to give your couple shoot (or any photo shoot) the extra bump it needs to be extraordinary!

-  Location where you got engaged.
- the Location where you met.
-  Bowling Alley.
-  Coffee Shop
-  Ice Cream Shop.
-  Amusement Park.
-  Location of your first date did this and it brought extra special smile and loves into the session as they told me all about their first date while we were there.
-Have (or stage) a picnic!!  
 -Sporty? Bring a ball or bring a bat and play a game, who doesn’t like a bit of action?
-Have a favourite movie?  Rein-act the movie in your engagement session!


Props are great fun, and a fantastic way to give you photo shoot a theme, extra meaning or .a little more spice! Some ideas…
  • Either of you play an instrument- bring it along!
  • Balloons are great fun
  • Have a favorite book?  Bring it along!
  • Have a pet?  Add some extra character to your shoot!
  • Flowers are simple but easy props to bring into the engagement session.
  • Are you wine drinkers?  Bring your favorite bottle and share it for pictures.
On the Central Coast we are lucky enough to have beautiful beaches and parks, but if you
Want something a little amusing and different and quirky, hopefully this little write up will leave you inspired!

Imagine Images has valentines day vouchers available for $45 including a photoshoot, hair and makeup for 1 + $50 credit towards photographs!! Make Valentines day memories this year

Dean and Kristen- Engagement photo shoot at Forresters Beach





I met Dean and Kristen on one of those ridiculous hot days that we have been having- I am just lucky that my job involves going to the beach :):) After hair and makeup, and a catch up session on there wedding plans, it was off to Spoon Bay for some engagement photos. You can see in the photo's that these two are pretty easy going, so I had fun experimenting and shooting heaps of different styles for them- and despite the sun being freakishly bright and hot that day, I think we came up with some great stuff!

Fashion Photo Shoot at the Imagine Images Studio









Every so often, in between being busy with Photo shoots and wedding photography, I like to collaborate with like minded people in my field, like talented hair dressers, makeup artists and stylists. This is a collaboration between Judy ( @ Judy Dowd hairdressing Salon in Terrigal) and Kira (www.makeartistry.net.au) The themed the shoot around a futuristic, high fashion Style with interesting and "out there" make up, we were aiming for the WOW factor and I think we did it!

Imagine Images Portrait Studio Family and couples photography





This photo shoot was for Tessa's 21st Birthday, and she brought along her baby brother Levi and her Fiance Jeremy for the ride. After Tess had her hair and makeup done We did a mixture of really romantic couple shots, sexy glamour photographs of just Tess and some really fun playful shots with her brother, such a mixture of images made it really hard for them to choose, but here are some of the favorites!

About Me

My photo
ERINA, nsw, Australia
Im Kendell, A lifestyle photographer based on the sunny Central Coast and director of Imagine Images. People love my work because it's modern and the sessions are fun, repetition bores me so I LOVE trying new things with my clients, the nuttier the better! I really don’t like over glamorized photography, I prefer to get to know and connect with my clients, if they feel comfortable-spontaneity and natural moments just happen, and that makes for amazing and memorable photos. This blog takes you behind the scenes, and you will get to know a little more about the friends and family of Imagine Images. I love sharing my work, I hope you enjoy it and much as much as I enjoy creating it!
