Hi there,
I’m Trudi. Mother of 3 and passionate newborn and family photographer servicing the Gladstone Region on the coast of Central QLD.
When you hire me to photograph your newborn and family. You aren’t just hiring me to photograph your sweet newborn baby or your beautiful family. You are enlisting me to help YOU remember a fleeting moment and feelings you just can’t put into words.
As a mother myself. I truly understand the value of preserving our memories in photographs. Our children grow up in the blink of an eye and let’s face it. We do too. So creating tangible memories for you keep forever and reminisce over in the years to come is why I’m here. It brings me so much joy to be welcomed into the lives of each family I meet.
As a certified member of the Academy of Newborn Photography, combined with 10+ years of experience handling newborns, you can be assured that your baby and family are in safe hands. All of my sessions are baby led, preferring a simple, safe style of newborn photography. I am fully vaccinated, registered, insured and trained in first aid and CPR. All items used during shoots are washed and sanitised after each session.
The health and wellbeing of my clients is my absolute priority!
I’d love to hear from you to document your special moments.
Trudi. x

where do I even start!!! I have had the absolute pleasure of knowing Trudi for years but was never one that was comfortable with her photo being taken. After a not so little nudge from my partner we booked a family shoot with Trudi and she absolutely nailed our crazy ideas!! Trudi’s kind and warm nature made us all feel comfortable to be our silly selves and capture our true personalities.
We have since welcomed our beautiful son Bobby to the world and you bet Trudi has been there to capture every moment along the way!!
Trudi has such an eye for detail and her passion for her work speaks for itself! I will be forever grateful that Trudi has been able to freeze moments in time for us and I will forever treasure our photos.
I highly recommend Trudi to capture all your special moments ✨️

We have had about 6/7 sessions with Trudi, ranging from maternity, to newborn to family and recently our 10 year wedding photo shoot. Each session we were met with a friendly smile ready to capture our crazy children, who arent exactly the photo type. Each session we walked away, feeling at ease that our special memories were captured in the way we wanted too. Her photos are priceless and a cost that is easy to manage. Trudi is very professional, with a magic touch to make everyone feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. i highly recommend Trudi at Trudi Bartley Photographer to anyone who is chasing magical memories captured ❤️

We’ve had 6 different photography sessions with Trudi and we are absolutely in love with every single image in all of our galleries.
Not only is she talented behind the camera, but she also creates a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere during the shoot.
If you’re looking for stunning, high-quality photos that you’ll cherish forever, I highly recommend Trudi Bartley. Her work is simply beautiful.
Ashleigh Barnett
Wow! Trudi is absolutely amazing.
She has captured my daughters newborn session back in 2021 and we did not hesitate in booking her for our sons newborn session in 2023.
Trudi makes every session comfortable and captures all those beautiful moments. She is incredibly patient and has such a beautiful soul that made our little bubbas feel so relaxed and comfortable.
I will treasure these photos for life.
I could not recommend Trudi enough.

Trudi has been our go-to family photographer for 4 years now and the way she captures our family is just stunning. Her friendly, down-to-earth personality makes our sessions super fun and easy and the way she handles even our craziest toddler and still manages to get amazing photos is just incredible. I have time and time again recommended Trudi to all of my family and friends and will continue to do so. She will be our family photographer for years to come. Not to mention that her photos are also stunning!
Tayla Milios
We recently had our newborn photos done by Trudi, the whole experience was fantastic. She made us feel so comfortable, she was so patient with our three year old and waiting for our newborn to settle as well. Trudi’s studio and photo aesthetic is exactly what I wanted for our photoshoot and the end product was absolutely beautiful. Precious photos we will cherish forever. I couldn’t recommend enough!
Abbey Lewis
Trudi made our session so relaxed and comfortable. Managing an energetic toddler and a newborn with patience and ease. The sneak peak pics we have seen so far are amazing and a tease to see the rest ???? Would highly recommend.

Amee Ferguson
We were lucky enough to have Trudi take our maternity & newborn photos! She made us feel so comfortable.. especially with posing when we had no idea what to do. And the photos are to die for ???? Trudi was super patient with our newborn photos allowing us to take time as needed. We will treasure the photos forever as our baby is growing so fast!
We can’t wait for next time already

Jade jones
Trudi is amazing, we have had multiple sessions with her dating as far back as 2017 through to 2021. Trudi has captured all our beautiful moments for our family including Fresh48’s at the hospital. Trudi is thorough with her work and editing. She makes you feel so comfortable during your session whether that be with animals, maternity,newborns or wrangling kids!
Bonnie
Trudi is down-to-earth, friendly person and has a gift for capturing candid moments and those details that remain unseen to most, our session made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera (definitely not my favourite place to be!). I was blown away with the quality of my images Trudi captured of our sons especially. Children aren’t always the easiest to capture. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives and we cannot thank Trudi enough for sharing her talent with us. I highly recommend Trudi Bartley Photography to anyone seeking stunning and unique images that capture those tender moments you just can’t pose for.
Kelly
Trudi is such a warm and welcoming person. She always makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her photos showcase natural, organic beauty and real life moments. Everything just flows when she’s capturing your sessions with her. Having had many milestones in my own family captured by Trudi, I will always get her to to continue document our life and journey. So empowered by her photographic story telling skills.
Jaimi L

Trudi has captured our families images for many years. She works wonders with my three quiet boys. We continue to update our photos with Trudi because she’s easy going, friendly, professional and we love her editing style.

Trudi captures the essence of a family in each shot. She is professional as well as putting everyone at ease so that even the ‘difficult’ ones become relaxed and join in. We thoroughly recommend Trudi Bartley Photography to anyone wishing to make special memories of their loved ones.
