I see the light that
makes you shine.
Now let’s show the world.

Images you will love.

Nice to meet you.

My name is Gray. I am the owner and principal photographer behind Simply Gray.

I help people have space to focus on what’s important in life.
May it be making time to celebrate YOU, your family or enhancing your business & online presence.

Together we create images you love and that show the beauty and strength we all see in you. Even if you can’t.

My sessions are relaxed, with purpose and full of heart.
I look forward to speaking with you soon and helping you capture what is most important to YOU!

  • "Gray, you take the best photos and it’s so fun to get your make up done and 'play' for the afternoon. Thanks for making me feel so comfortable. I love my pics."

    ♥️ Meaghan

  • “Gray, thank you so much for our beautiful photos. We love them! The Milestone Session is a lovely idea and we’re so pleased to have had you photograph this time in James’ life. You have really captured his essence and every time we look at our photos in the years to come we will be reminded not only of the way James looked as a 12 year old but of all his passions and interests at this age. It was exciting waiting to receive our proofs and then difficult to make our selection with so many photos to choose from! Then our gorgeous photos were delivered to us and they were so beautifully presented. You took so much care with their packaging. Thank you for capturing this special time for us.”

    ♥️ Suzette, mum of James

  • Thank you Gray, I thoroughly enjoyed my session and being a part of the 50 & Wiser Club project. You are an absolute ⭐️ and this experience has had such a positive impact on me.

    ♥️ Tara Anderson

  • I just wanted to say a huge thank you, for the beautiful photos I received in the post last week. They were amazing. You made me look so glamourous at a time when I felt so low and not at all sexy, after my chemo and radiation treatment. I can look back at that time with gratitude instead of trauma. For this I will be forever grateful.

  • As a 50+ woman looking for some new fresh pics for my website and I had heard about Gray through some connection. Booked in and off I went, I was so relaxed and comfortable with Gray taking the shots, we laughed far too much and had some moment of quiet solitude as Gray was shooting but these all came about from Gray being a magnificent director of her subject and getting the most out of you in the shoot. Thoroughly enjoyed the process and the connection.

    ❤️ Julie Doyle

  • “I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am with my photo wall! We put it up this morning and each time I walk into the lounge room I smile. I absolutely love it so much!“

    ❤️ Kim, Children and Family Session

  • “I tried really hard to resist looking at them until Pete and I could sit down together…. But I couldn’t wait and had a sneak peek! They are AMAZING, I’m so happy. However I have no idea how we’re going to choose between them, they’re all so good!!”

    ❤️ Sarah, Children and Family Session
