ABOUT STARLIGHT CHILDREN’S FOUNDATION

Starlight’s vision is that everyone experiences a happy childhood, because happiness matters. Serious childhood illness doesn’t just impact a child’s health.  It can turn their whole life upside down, causing them to miss out on spending time with their family, building friendships, going to school and just living their life. Through their various programs, Starlight provides support to children and young people in some of their toughest times and to positively change their healthcare experience.

KeKe Shakespeare ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It was so much fun working with Murielle, I can’t believe she had captured such beautiful photos with my two kids together. My younger one was very unhappy on the day, I came in viewing thinking there won’t be any nice photos of her. But Murielle surprised me. There were so many nice ones that so hard to chose from! I will definitely recommend her to my family and friends!

Deanna Klapsogiannis ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Murielle, you are amazing. We had so much fun in your studio, and your photos are incredible. I finally have a photo of my family that I love! Thank you so much

Antonela Sala ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thanks Murielle for the beautiful portrait and also for taking the time make the girls feel comfortable. They spoke about the photo shoot for days (even though we had to keep it a secret for so long). We surprised mum the other day and she loved it! Thank you again and I’m sure we will see eachother soon for other photos.

Megan Orahem ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you Murielle for a fun photo session with my beautiful family today. You are a very personal compassionate person who certainly loves what she does. Haven’t smiled so much for such a long time. You brought my daughters best features alive I can’t wait till we view the end results

Rose Evans ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I cannot recommend Murielle and VIVID Photography & Imaging highly enough. I recently booked a family photo shoot and from the very first contact, the service I was provided was friendly and professional. Photographing a family with 3 kids under 3 was always going to be a mission, but during the studio photo shoot Murielle was patient and engaging which won the trust of my 2.5 year old (which is not always easy to do!). The photos were incredible and the wall art available is very good quality – I am so very happy with our finished products.
Personal touches like the personalised welcome sign at the front door when you attend an appointment and Murielle’s happy and accommodating personality make you feel instantly at ease. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Murielle and I intend to continue using them for future family photos!

Mirna Borg ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you so much Murielle for the beautiful photos.
The sunset shoot was awesome and you made it so much fun with your lively bubbly friendly personality!! My daughter hates getting her photo taken at the best of times , but she certainly enjoyed it with you and you managed to capture her beautiful fun nature with your candid natural photos. Thank you for such an awesome experience!! Have highly recommended you to all our family and friends And will certainly be back again with our whole family for more pics in the future.
