CINEMATIC MUSINGS

FOR THE MAVERICKS, AND THE DEEPLY SENTIMENTAL.

Emotionally charged, enigmatic & deliciously reminiscent; I’m your Townsville-based portrait & branding photographer

My genius is in bringing out the sultry, confident, grounded, empowered woman in a gentle & intimate way - a touch of planning, some pre-shoot preparation, and an unwavering trust in the process so much, that I know it’s going to unfold exactly how it’s supposed to.

If you’ve been desperate for a photographer who won’t do you dirty with cheesy headshots, general blandness & lack of soul, welcome to the wild side.

1. Branding

crafting powerful & emotional branding visuals for service based business.


2. Personal

intimate, raw imagery to empower and transform women on a path to self-discovery and inner connection, as a lavish celebration of confidence, elegance and sensuality.


3. Support

mentoring & guidance for budding photographers who are longing to surpass the basics and create a thriving photography business, with the least amount of f*ing around.


“Being behind Olivia Calder ’s lens was everything I wanted and more.. I have never felt so confident, inspired, gorgeous and magical. Feeling like I could have been a fairy in a past life..“

- Shivannah

“I’ve always cringed doing photos until I booked in with Olivia. I have never felt so comfortable and so unjudged being captured on film. Not only has Olivia got such an artistic talent, but she celebrates who you are as an individual and praises that and it shows in her work.
I can not recommend working with Olivia highly enough.” - Tina

“As I scroll through my gallery for the hundredth time I find myself grinning and my eyes welling with tears. The way you have managed to capture the beauty of these fleeting moments between my son and myself is unbelievable. I usually feel very awkward and uncomfortable in front of a camera, but that morning with you felt just like catching up with an old friend. I now have these stunning images to cherish forever and to show my son when he is older. Thank you for showing me how beautiful I am as I find my way in my new body and my new role as a mother. Thank you. Thank you.” - Sari

Soft, gentle, whimsical & milky - my approach is to colour your world in vibrance, emotion and awe.

We’re not aiming for perfection here, we’re aiming for powerful.

Heavy sighs, pulling-at-heart-strings, “I can’t stop looking at these” kind of photos.
