Behind the Lens | The Last 2 Weeks at Courtney Whittaker Photography
The last two weeks have been a whirlwind of creativity, celebration, and storytelling. From the skies above with aerial drone views to golden winter beach scenes and out-of-town milestone moments — we’ve had the privilege of capturing life in all its beautiful forms.
Here’s a closer look at what we’ve been up to:
Aerials & Artistic Perspective: Drone Photography Sessions
We kicked off the fortnight with a series of drone photography projects — giving our clients a truly elevated perspective (literally!). Whether for landscape shots, property views, or dynamic event coverage, drone work allows us to tell stories from angles that spark awe and admiration. The crisp visuals and cinematic quality take our content to the next level, adding depth and scale to every shoot.
A Family Celebration : The Jooman
One of the highlights the Jooman family shoot. This shoot wasn’t just about capturing an event — it was about documenting love, legacy, and family bonds that stretch generations.
From intimate pre-event portraits to the full energy of the party, heartfelt speeches, and generational family groupings, it was a privilege to preserve the essence of such a milestone. The atmosphere was vibrant and warm — a true reflection of the Jooman family’s spirit.
Winter Mood, Coastal Magic: Darne’s Beach Shoot
We wrapped up the week with a stylish winter beach shoot featuring Darne at Maitlands. Styled with a trenchcoat, boots, and rich winter tones, Darne brought strong editorial energy to the dunes and shoreline — all under the glow of golden hour light.
Despite the chill, the shoot was fire 
. From candid sunlit silhouettes to powerful posed moments, every frame was a celebration of confidence and creativity. Winter shoots have a magic of their own — and this one delivered in every way.
Let’s Create Your Moment
Every photoshoot is more than just images. It’s the story we freeze in time — one you’ll revisit for years to come. Whether it’s an event, a styled session, a family gathering, or something uniquely yours, we’d love to capture it.
