Hello darling
I’m Tara Parkinson, the heart and soul behind Hello Darling Photography, based on the stunning Central Coast of NSW. At 32 years old, I’m fortunate to be living my dream life—surrounded by my loving husband, our adventurous son, and of course, the breathtaking equine companions that fill my world with joy.
My journey into photography began as a personal passion, driven by a desire to capture the beauty and magic that surrounds us every day. Growing up, horses were always an integral part of my life; they taught me about trust, patience, and the incredible connections we can form with the living beings around us. Today, I specialize in capturing the unique bond between horses and their owners, transforming fleeting moments into lasting memories. It’s truly a privilege to witness the love and dedication that horse enthusiasts share with their animals, and I aim to document those special connections through my lens.
At Hello Darling Photography, I believe in the power of storytelling. Every photograph I take is infused with emotion and authenticity, highlighting the moments that matter most in life. Whether it’s a rider soaring gracefully over obstacles, the quiet moments of grooming after a long ride, or the joyful laughter shared between family members, I’m dedicated to preserving those memories for generations to come.
Beyond equestrian photography, I’m passionate about capturing the essence of families. As a mother, I understand the importance of those fleeting moments—playful giggles, quiet cuddles, and cherished milestones. My approach is relaxed and candid, allowing your family’s true personality to shine through in every shot. I strive to create an enjoyable and stress-free experience, making it easy for you to feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera.
I’m proud to call the Central Coast my home, a place that offers breathtaking landscapes perfect for creating stunning backdrops for your photography sessions. Whether it’s against the backdrop of lush greenery or the golden hues of sunset on the beach, I embrace the natural beauty of this incredible region to enhance every story I tell.
Thank you for considering Hello Darling Photography to document your life’s journey. I can't wait to meet you, your family, and, of course, your beloved horses. Let’s create something beautiful together!
