I'm Kara Santon, a creative soul based in the serene town of Gympie, Queensland where I live with my husband and our two precious sons. Describing myself can be a bit of a challenge—I've found that motherhood has become such an intrinsic part of my identity that it's sometimes hard to see beyond it. But it's a transformation I wouldn't trade for the world.

Becoming a mother has reshaped my perspective on life, simplifying it in the most beautiful ways. Amidst the whirlwind of nurturing my sons, I've discovered profound joy in the quiet corners of our home—the shared giggles over our pre bedtime dance parties, the warmth of morning cuddles, and the enchanting chaos of our family meals. These moments, so fleeting yet eternally precious, fill my soul with a deep sense of contentment and gratitude.









As a mother of two precious sons, I understand the deep desire to preserve and celebrate the precious moments that make up our lives. From the tender cuddles of a newborn to the laughter-filled whirlwind of family life, these moments weave together the tapestry of our memories. Motherhood has a way of conflicting all your inner thoughts. 

I often find myself in the endless dance between wanting to freeze time while they’re still small and then eagerly anticipating the person they will grow to be. I can feel the days flying by, and I simply want to capture it all, which is why I found comfort in photography.

I am Kara Santon, a Gympie based photographer, creative, and nurturing presence.
