PROCESS

Plan

Get in touch and we'll start to plan the perfect session for you. Once booked in with session date, contract and retainer, I'll send through a questionnaire to learn more.  You'll receive my session guide, with info on what to expect and how to prepare, and I'm here to answer any other questions you have. 

Capture

We'll meet up and have fun. I'll take photos, you just be yourself. There is no wrong way to do this! I'll prompt you as needed, but if you hug your loved ones close we're off to a great start.

Enjoy

Three weeks later, you will receive a link to your private online gallery. Gather together to watch the slideshow, choose your favourites  and download the full-sized images included in your collection.

I've realised I basically only take photos of young families and I want to change that. They may not have big gap-toothed grins anymore, but let's celebrate the wonderful relationship that you have with your 'big kids'!

Older Families

Families relaxing, laughing, loving on each other.
That's what I love to capture.

Natural, Real Connection

$300

I'm offering a shorter session option for families with
older children, high school age or above.

UPGRADE the complete gallery 30+ photos

$199

This offer is limited to the parents and children of an immediate family (just the two generations) where everyone is a teenager or older. Younger children need time to relax and connect with me to capture beautiful images, while bribes for teenagers can be pre-negotiated.

PAYMENT DETAILS

For the Essential Collection, payment is divided into three parts, with a third due at booking to confirm your session. The second payment is due at the time of your photo session, with the final payment not due until you receive the slideshow of your images. 

When booking a collection with more than one session included, I'll add additional payment steps into the schedule. Payment plans are also available on all collections, so please feel free to ask. 

After you have viewed your slideshow of images, you have the option to upgrade and purchase the entire gallery if you choose. For entirely digitals, the price is $200 however I also offer packages including print credit. 

I do offer limited sessions each month, so I suggest contacting me a few months in advance of your due date to secure your booking. 

I like to begin our session with a quick chat about what’s going to happen and a tour of your home. I know you want me to be there; at this point it’s really about the kids. They’ll show me their favourite toys, their bedroom. We’re not in a hurry and I’ll work with their energy and enthusiasm, not fighting against it.

I want you to relax. I don’t need you to tell the kids to smile or to look at the camera. Let me take charge; I can always ask for help if I need it. I’m there to capture you relaxing, laughing, loving on each other. The more you interact and forget about me, the better.

I’m going to take my shoes off, fiddle with your curtains, encourage kids jumping on the bed. I’ll provide direction as required but really, it’s about enabling situations for your family to be its incredible, natural self.

And we’re going to have fun.

Sure, light and bright houses make my work easier but I’ve yet to see a home without at least one space that will work.

Or if an in-home session doesn’t suit, let’s meet at the beach. Or a national park. Your favourite café. Man, the options are endless. Where does your family go to relax and play together? Where are you most ‘you’? If you have an idea, I want to hear about it. Not quite sure, then let’s chat.

Outdoor sessions are timed for sunrise or about an hour before sunset. With young daughters myself, I get that this isn’t always the easiest. It’s worth it.

In-home sessions are generally scheduled for 10am or 2pm, but there is so much more flexibility so let me know what time works for your family’s routine.

You want to be co-ordinated, but not matchy-matchy. Think neutrals and beautiful textures – linen, lace, denim, knits, silk – then add in some complimentary colour. Big logos are best avoided.

Mum’s outfit can be a good place to start; something you feel comfortable and lovely wearing.

Pinterest  for inspiration.

Your lounge room, bedrooms and anywhere there is beautiful light is where I am most likely to shoot.

Rooms looking lived in and loved is awesome, but if you could spend just a couple minutes hiding clutter in a cupboard or junk room it can make a big difference. I promise not to look!

Shortly after your session I will share a sneak peek on Facebook.

You will receive an email with a link to your online gallery within three weeks. This is where you select your photos to download and can look at the gorgeous printing options available. 

Wonderful! 

Once we have settled on a date and time, I will email through a questionnaire to obtain the necessary details and learn more about what makes your family wonderfully you.

There will also be a contract, confirming some simple expectations of each other, and invoice attached. A 50% deposit is required at the time of booking and can be paid via direct debit or Paypal. 

                  Here's how to get in touch with me.

No worries, we’ll reschedule. Same if I’m sick; I’m not going to share my germs.

Oh, and I’m up to date on my immunisations.
