Hey!


If you’ve made it this far, thank you! That means we’re one step closer to being friends & connecting! I couldn’t be more excited about that.


My name is Tara, and I’m the heart and lens behind Tara Courtney Photography.


I’m based in the beautiful North Burnett region, in a small town Called Gayndah, known for its citrus and charm.

Photography has been a life-changing journey for me. What started as a personal passion quickly grew into a heartfelt mission, to capture the raw, authentic moments that mean the most. I believe in storytelling through candid, natural images that reflect the real emotions and connections between people.

As a proud mum of four, I truly understand the value of preserving memories. It’s often us mums behind the camera, but rarely in front of it. That’s why, in 2019, I made the decision to turn my passion into a business. to help families, especially other mums, be seen, celebrated, and remembered in the moments that matter most.


For me, photography isn’t just a service, it’s a deeply personal experience. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing my clients light up when they see their memories beautifully captured, ready to be treasured for a lifetime.


I invite you to explore my portfolio, and if you feel a connection to my work, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Whether you’re ready to book or just have questions, I’d love to hear from you.


Warmly,

Tara

It's a Passion that has inspired me to take the leap

Photography isn't a job to me, It's a passion! ... I do it because I love to photograph life and help people have those forever moments. It's about bringing joy to others and helping them capture things in time for years to come.
