"I am Kirby, a 36 year old soul with a passion for supporting families and capturing their most cherished moments.  I was raised in the bush by a single mother and as the saying goes: "you can take the girl out of the bush, but you can’t take the bush out of the girl.” My upbringing instilled in me lessons of resilience, self-reliance, appreciation for nature and a strong love of family, that continues to shape who I am as a person, mother and business owner.  In 2010 I left my hometown of Nebo to be with my now husband Alex and overnight became the step mum to a beautiful 3 year old baby girl. Raising her has been one of the most rewarding, humbling and challenging experiences of my life and I continue to learn more from her, than she could ever possibly learn from me.  My matrescence journey has been anything but straightforward and while it has been filled with vast amounts of grief and heartache, ultimately it brought me Olive Juice - and for that I am forever grateful.  Founded in 2018 on my first ever due date that came and went without a baby in my arms, Olive Juice Lifestyle became an outlet for me to pour my heart and soul into while I try to grow my family.  From humble beginnings, Olive Juice has evolved into a full-service, soul-led, luxury business, that I am incredibly proud of.  My business is dedicated to all my babies - acts as an extension of myself. So it reflects all of my favourite things.  When I am not behind the camera or guiding families through the beautiful journey of birth, you’ll likely find me in my backyard watering my plants, cuddling my fur babies, or hanging out with my beautiful family. ​ As a photographer, videographer and doula, I find joy in weaving unforgettable stories through the lens of my camera and the gentle touch of my support.  ​ Whether you are booking in for family photos or doula services, you can count on having a relaxed and enjoyable experience with me.
