Step 1: Get in touch

Please use the contact form to inquire about a booking at least one month in advance. The more details you can provide (type of session, preferences, dates), the better I can assist you.

Once I receive your inquiry, I’ll reply via email to continue the conversation. I prefer email as it helps keep everything in one place.

⚠️ If you don’t hear from me within 48 hours, please check your junk folder. Please leave your mobile number so I can send you a quick, friendly text after replying.

Step 2: Choosing a Date & Location

We’ll pick a suitable date together and talk through potential locations. I’m happy to offer recommendations based on your vision.

Step 3: Invoice , Client Agreement & Deposit

Once we’ve locked in the details, you’ll receive an invoice and a client agreement outlining the session cost, services, and terms.

To secure your booking, a non-refundable $200 deposit is required — this covers prep, admin, location scouting, and holds your date firmly in my calendar.

Step 4: Session Prep & Final Confirmation

I’ll send you an outfit guide and any helpful info tailored to your session.

About a week before, we’ll confirm the time and location to make sure everything runs smoothly on the day.

My main collections are designed to give you the full storytelling experience with plenty of beautiful images to treasure. I also offer a smaller, "curated collection" that is perfect for those wanting something simple and intentional. If that sounds like what you’re after, feel free to mention it when you get in touch, and I’ll let you know if it’s currently available.

You can expect to receive the online album of your edited images within 2 weeks from the session date. In some cases, it may be as quick as 1 week, depending on workload and editing requests. I prioritise providing high-quality images while ensuring attention to detail and artistic touch. I will keep you informed about the estimated delivery time and any updates on the editing progress. If you have specific time constraints or special requests, please let me know, and I'll do my best to accommodate them.

I lean towards candid moments, as they tend to show more natural and authentic interactions. However, I do understand the importance of having some posed photos, especially with everyone facing the camera.

I usually start with some posed photos and then let the session flow naturally. If there are young children, I follow their lead and focus on real moments as they unfold. The session won’t involve strict posing, but rather gentle prompts to keep things relaxed and unscripted.

The goal is to highlight genuine emotions and connections that reflect your family’s personality and dynamics.

When photographing families with young children, I prioritise following their lead and capturing genuine moments of joy and interaction. I understand that young children may have their own pace and preferences, so I adapt to their energy and create a comfortable environment for them. I use prompts and guidance throughout the session to encourage natural interactions and expressions, ensuring that everyone feels at ease and has an enjoyable experience.

No, I do not provide RAW files as part of my service. RAW files are unedited, unprocessed image formats that contain a lot of raw data. While they offer more flexibility in editing, they also require specialised software to open and are much larger in size.

When you book a session with me, you will receive a professionally edited gallery of high-quality images in formats like JPEG, which are easy to share and print. These edited images represent my artistic vision, ensuring you get the best moments from the session.

If you have specific editing requests, feel free to let me know, and I’ll do my best to accommodate them.

Thank you for your understanding!

What Does “Editing” Mean?

Editing is the process of enhancing and refining images using professional software like Adobe Lightroom. My editing includes adjustments to colour, exposure, contrast, sharpness, and cropping to create a polished, cohesive look that reflects my signature style.

💡 What I Do:
✔ Color correction and tonal adjustments
✔ Enhancing overall brightness, contrast, and depth
✔ Maintaining a natural and timeless aesthetic

🚫 What I Don’t Do:

✖ Skin retouching (removing blemishes, wrinkles, or body modifications)
✖ Photoshop manipulations (e.g., altering body shapes, adding or removing objects)

Every photographer has a unique editing style, and my goal is to enhance the natural beauty of your images while preserving the genuine moments we captured. If you have any specific preferences, feel free to let me know, and I’ll do my best to accommodate them within my artistic approach.

The ownership of the images is outlined in the client agreement provided after booking. While you have rights to use the images (such as sharing them, posting on social media, and printing), the copyright remains with me, the photographer. This means I retain the right to display and use the images on my website, social media, and for promotional purposes.

I understand the importance of privacy, and if you prefer not to have your images shared publicly, just let me know, and I will respect your wishes.

Please feel free to review the client agreement for more details on the ownership and usage rights of your photos. If you have any concerns, don’t hesitate to ask!

Your online gallery will be available for 28days, so please download and back up the images during this time.

After 8 weeks, the images may be removed from the photographer's hard drive. It's important to create multiple backups to ensure their safety. The photographer may retain some images for marketing purposes as per the client agreement.

Please remember to download and back up your images within the provided timeframe to avoid any potential loss of access to the gallery.

The $200 deposit required to secure your date is non-refundable, as it represents the reservation of the specific date and time for the photography service.

If you need to cancel the session with less than 7 days' notice until the scheduled shoot, the client will be responsible for the full payment.

However, in the event that the photographer initiates the cancellation, all monies paid, including the deposit fee, will be returned to the client within 7 business days from the time of cancellation.

Please be aware of the cancellation policy when booking a session to ensure that both parties are clear on the expectations and responsibilities regarding cancellations.

I understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, such as a child falling ill or other unexpected events. Therefore, I allow for one rescheduling of the session without any penalty. However, any additional changes made after the initial rescheduling may incur a fee.

In the case of outdoor sessions, if there is inclement weather, such as heavy rain or other unfavourable conditions, we will reschedule the session at no additional cost. This decision will be made at least 24 hours before the scheduled session to allow for proper planning.

It's important to note that cloudy or overcast weather does not typically affect the final outcome of the photographs. Therefore, we will proceed with the session as planned in such weather conditions.

I understand the importance of capturing moments in the best possible conditions, and I strive to be flexible and accommodating when it comes to rescheduling. If you need to reschedule or have concerns about the weather or any other circumstances, please contact me as soon as possible, and we will work together to find a suitable solution.

Please refer to the client agreement or contact me directly for any specific details or clarification regarding the reschedule policy for your photography session.
