Creating the magic. Capturing the moments.
This isn’t an ordinary Photoshoot or Party...
It’s a Magical Experience
Looking for a kids’ party entertainer or a photographer who truly connects with your children? Someone who sparks their imagination and meets them exactly where they are? Welcome, you’ve found your fairy!
As Elena the Dream Fairy, I arrive with my wings and bring the sparkles! Magic potion making, giant bubbles and face glitter turn your child’s special day into a magical experience they’ll never forget.
As a photographer, I don’t just take photos. I capture connection and the magic in between. Children feel the energy, and it shows in that spark of wonder only they can give.
"Ciao, you beautiful soul"
— welcome to my magical world.
I’m Elena, a purple-haired Dream Fairy based in Moonee Ponds. These days, more than ever, kids need a little magic. With Elena’s Magic Potion Parties, children wonder, believe and make a wish with the Dream Fairy. It’s not only for birthdays: I also come to private events, and I run magic potion masterclasses during the school holidays.
Children ask me, “Are you a real fairy?” And I tell them, “Yes, and if you believe, you’ll see my magic too.”
I believe magic is real. It's in the small things — a child's laugh, a mother watching her child in the garden, a look between two people in love. Most people don't see it. I do.
"I see it, I chase it, and I capture it before it vanishes!"
That’s what Dream Catcher Photography is all about. In a fairy garden session or your family moments, I love revealing the special details you might miss and turning them into images you’ll treasure. And I can bring my camera to your magic party too, so every wish, giggle and bubble is kept forever.
Life moves quickly, and seasons change rapidly. But the magic in your story? That's absolutely worth preserving.
Bring the Magic Home
From potion parties to fairy tale portraits, every moment has its own magic.

" From our first conversation,
I knew Elena was the perfect fit for our family photos. She took the time to understand our personalities, guided us on outfits, helped us choose pieces that complemented each other perfectly. Elena made the kids feel comfortable the second we arrived. She played soccer with my son and et my daughter cartwheel her energy out between shots, even surprised them with a little goodie bag to take home. The photos we received were amazing and captured our family perfectly ".

" Elena was a true professional. Fun, engaging, entertaining and super friendly! Elena kept the kids totally captivated and created the perfect atmosphere for my son’s 10th birthday party. It was exactly what he wanted his birthday to be! We chose the Magic Potion Academy Experience with an added on photographic package with beautiful high quality photos that perfectly captured the spirit of the day as a keepsake of Nicolas’ very special birthday.
Elena was a pleasure to work with - excellent communication and very attentive she really took care of everything and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect on the day.
Thank you Fairy Elena for making Nicolas’ birthday a truly memorable occasion of magic and fantasy.
