Cherished Moments Forever Captured At Impressionable Kids Mackay

Imagine a tiny hand wrapped around your finger, a loyal paw resting by your side, or the final embrace of someone dearly loved…these are the imprints that shape our hearts forever. But what if you could hold onto them, not just in memory, but as something you can cherish for a lifetime?

At Impressionable Kids Mackay, Allysha Zirbel has made it her mission to do exactly that. Whether it’s the delicate hands and feet of a newborn, the paws of a beloved pet, or even the hooves of a horse, no imprint is too big or too small to preserve.

“I can capture the whole family,” says Allysha.

“From newborns and adults, to dogs and horses… even chickens...you name it and I can do it.”

Having experienced a heart-breaking loss herself, Allysha understands the heavy weight of these moments - which is why she takes pride in her work, finding great joy in preserving such special moments for others.

“This is not something that I was able to do for my late husband, so I don’t have that memory for myself, and that’s why it's very important for me to give these memories to other people.

“What I love most about my job though is that I get to play with babies all the time…and I don’t need to keep them,” she laughs.

Offering 53 vibrant colours and over 40 frame mouldings, each piece is thoughtfully made to reflect the unique personality of the person or pet being honoured. And with a variety of options, you can keep that special someone even closer. Gift those around you with a precious fingerprint impressed on jewellery, a framed handprint, or a paw cast from a beloved family pet – it doesn’t get more sentimental than that!

Crafted right here in the region, you can find comfort in knowing that you or your loved ones won’t need to travel far.

“I do all the work here in Mackay, so they don’t actually leave the region.”

As a mother, Allysha finds great joy in meeting families, hearing their stories, and helping them hold onto life’s most valued moments. After all, Impressionable Kids Mackay is built on love, loss, and the understanding that time often moves too quickly.

“I love that I’m able to give those memories to families, because you just can’t get that time back.

“Life is so precious…and I want to capture it.”

Transform momentary touches into lasting treasures, and carry life’s most valuable memories close to heart with Impressionable Kids Mackay.
