My Story

Welcome! My name is Jenifer Dickinson and I am the face behind the Little Field lens — capturing the magic of children from my little farm in Iona.  ​In 1985, my family migrated to Australia from Uruguay. As a keen hobby photographer with an old school film camera, my dad inspired me at the age of 12 to pick up his camera.  Once I finished school, life took its course and art and photography slowly drifted into the background. I took on careers in the horse industry, childcare, and over the next seven years, I worked my way up from reception to property management. During this time, I met my future husband John and in 2010 we were married on the farm. With real estate not quite filling my cup, I moved on and settled into farm life. Unsure of what to do next, I bought myself a second hand digital camera and started taking photographs around the farm. Our dogs, horses, cattle and my nephews became my main subject. I began to post the photos on Facebook and received positive feedback from friends and family. I started offering mini sessions and this allowed me to cultivate my own unique style.  ​In 2016, we were blessed with our first (hubby's third) child.  My gorgeous son helps me better my skills every day as I continue to snap up his childhood through my lens. My unique style has brought me to mentor new and established photographers from all around the world.

It is a blessing to create beautiful memories that you can proudly hang in your homes.
