There’s something quiet and powerful about a mother’s love. It doesn’t shout; it shows up — day in
and day out. That’s exactly what we witnessed when Samantha Rowney stepped in front of our lens this past
Mother’s Day. With her son on one side, her daughter on the other, and Perth’s golden light surrounding them, we
saw not just a family — but the heart that holds it all together.
This wasn’t just a photoshoot. It was a celebration of motherhood, captured
honestly, with no forced smiles and
no rigid poses — just real connection, real joy, and the kind of moments that pass too quickly unless someone
stops to freeze them in time.
Samantha’s session was one of those rare days that felt effortless. Set against a
familiar Perth backdrop, the shoot unfolded like a quiet Sunday morning — warm, unhurried, full of love in the
small moments. Her children didn’t need direction. They simply gravitated toward her, laughing, hugging, teasing
— everything you’d expect from a close-knit trio.
And Samantha? She radiated that unique blend of calm and chaos only mothers truly understand. She laughed with
them. She steadied them. She watched them in that way only a mum can — half pride, half wonder.
This is what we believe Mother’s Day photography should be: honest, intimate, and a little bit magical.
Every year, Mother’s Day comes and goes. A card, a bouquet, maybe breakfast in bed. But
what if you could give — or receive — something that lives on far beyond that Sunday morning? A photo that says,
“This was us. This is how they looked at me. This is how we loved.”
Our Mother’s Day photoshoots in Perth are designed around this exact idea. It’s not just about the perfect
outfit or the right location. It’s about documenting the truth of motherhood — the snuggles, the whispers, the
laughter, the looks that don’t need words.
Because these moments don’t last forever. But a photograph can make them feel like they do.
At Letthe Lightin Photography, we
specialise in capturing real-life beauty. Whether it’s a
Mother’s Day session, a family portrait, or a quiet moment between parent and child, our focus is always the
same: storytelling through light and connection.
Samantha’s shoot is a reminder of why we do what we do. Based in Perth, Western Australia, we’re proud to offer
family and portrait photography that goes beyond the frame — giving families memories they can feel, not just
see.
If you're looking for a way to honour the love in your life — be it for Mother’s Day, a birthday, or just
because — our team is here to create something special, just for you.
