Hi there, I’m Kerry : photographer, storyteller, and professional moment-catcher

I’m here for the people with stories to tell - the big celebrations, quiet moments, everyday connections and everything in between.

I believe in photography with purpose - images that mean something, that hold weight, that bring you back to a moment you never want to forget. My passion lies in candid captures and storytelling, in documenting the real and the raw, the loud laughs and quiet in-betweens, the little details that add up to a life.

To me, the best photos aren’t about perfection - they’re about presence. The wrinkles, the chaos, the connection. The magic in the mess. The small glances and big emotions that make this moment feel like yours.

Whether you're building a brand, marking a milestone, or simply wanting to freeze this season before it slips by - I'm here to help you hold onto it. I believe a photoshoot should feel easy, natural and fun.

Like hanging out with a friend who just happens to have a camera.

Let’s tell your story, exactly as it is.

Why 38th Parallel?

The name comes from home - Melbourne, Australia - right near the 38th Parallel South. It’s where my love for photography first took root, and where this creative journey really began.

I learned to dive here, and that’s when things shifted. Beneath the surface, I discovered a quieter world full of colour, movement and wonder - and I started capturing it, one frame at a time. My first business? Selling underwater prints that told the stories of that hidden world.

But as time passed, I felt the pull to come back up for air - to connect with people, to tell their stories too. From underwater landscapes to real-life celebrations, family chaos, business dreams and everything in between, my work grew alongside the community around me.

And that’s what 38th Parallel is about now : capturing the real, raw, beautiful moments - above or below the surface.
