FAQS
I'm based in Brisbane, Australia, but my sessions include travel to Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast.
I recommend booking as early as possible, especially for weekend dates, which tend to fill up quickly. Typically, clients book 2-3 months in advance to secure their preferred date.
I provide a curated guide, including links to some of my favourite online shops, to make outfit planning easy. Your clothing choices can really influence the overall feel of the images, so I also provide personalised styling advice during your session planning call.
Time doesn't stand still for anything. While you wait your babies grow. Think about this - you will never have today with your little one again. Tomorrow they will be a little bit bigger, already changing.
Deciding that based on the way you look you are not worthy of being in photos right now also sends a message about self worth to our kids. We want them to know that self worth is not determined by the way we look. That we are all worthy of exisiting in photographs. Let's show them their beautiful, strong, wholesome mama. Let's honour this season of life as it is.
You have me on your side, helping with outfits that will make you feel beautiful, booking you in with my magic-making hair and makeup artist and guiding you into flattering poses during your session.
The time is now!
Absolutely! Helping you look beautiful in your photos is a part of my job. I am right there with you each step of the way to show you exactly what to do.
Your session is not just about taking photos, it's about creating a special memory. I want you to spend this time soaking up this chapter of life as well as creating images that will become part of your legacy.
There will be smiles, giggles and sweet little moments. And I do not take it lightly that you are entrusting your safety, your confidence, your self-image and your vulnerabilities with your photographer. I'm here to help you shine mama - trust me, you've got this.
Yes, they absolutely can! Including extended family members, like grandparents, is a beautiful way to create even more meaningful memories.
I have a range of beautiful curated locations you can choose from or if you prefer we can select some place that's sentimental to your family.
I get it - 5pm is usually crazy o'clock and it can be nerve wracking planning a photo shoot at this time. In my experience little ones are always totally fine because they are out in nature doing something different. But if you don't want to risk it I also offer bright and sunny sessions at 9am or 3pm instead of the 5pm sunset session. I'm here to make your life easier, not harder.
I'm a mama too - I get it. Life can be hectic. That's why I'm very flexible and each step of our time together is child friendly. We can do our session planning call during nap time or on daycare/school days. My hair and makeup artist is also a mama and your kids are welcome to join you if you visit her studio or there is space for them to play at my studio. On your session day I recommend bringing a partner or friend along (if you aren't already including them in the session) to help out. During you session I am go with the flow and there's always an ebb and flow of emotions and moods. It's my job to guide everyone to get those magical moments happening. All I ask is that you try to be as in the moment as possible and I promise we'll capture something beautiful.
If it looks like it’s going to rain heavily during a scheduled outdoor session, we can discuss changing locations to somewhere undercover or reschedule if possible. If it is just cloudy or there are light showers we will go ahead. Cloudy conditions are actually perfect for photos because the light is soft and flattering. Some of my most beautiful photos are from rainy day sessions.
If your child isn’t feeling well, we can reschedule your session to a later date. I want everyone to be at their best, so we’ll work together to find another time that suits you.
Life happens! If you’re running late, just let me know as soon as possible. We’ll adjust as best we can, but keep in mind that late arrivals may shorten the session if there are timing constraints.
Life is complicated and the unexpected is to be expected. The deposit is non refundable as this helps to protect my business due to turning away all other booking for your session date. I hope you understand that deposit is insurance for my business to stay afloat in the event of a cancellation.
Sessions typically last between 60-90 minutes, giving us plenty of time to capture a mix of posed and candid moments. I make sure it’s a relaxed experience, so we don’t feel rushed.
Yes, please! Pets are part of the family, and I’m more than happy to include them in your session. Just let me know in your questionnaire and we can chat about the plans during your session planning call.
I recommend that you book your session between 2-5 months in advance. Newborn sessions are often booked from 12 weeks onwards. My calendar does fill quickly so the earlier you plan the more likely it is that I will have your requested date available. The more time we have until your session the more time we have to plan the finer details.
Send me a message here with your preferred date and location and we can make plans from there.
I offer flexible pre-payment plan options tailored to you and your needs as well as AfterPay, credit card and direct transfer. Most of my clients opt to prepay their session in 3-4 instalments.
You’ll receive a beautiful, curated gallery of your images within 3-4 weeks after your session. I take care to edit each photo by hand, so the wait will be well worth it!
Absolutely! Once your gallery is ready, you can order additional prints, albums, or other keepsakes. I’m here to help you create something truly special for your home.
Of course, I'd love for you to print your favourite photos! You can easily order photos prints through your online gallery.
Yes, all images are carefully edited for color, light, and tone. Minor retouching is included to remove distractions, but I strive to keep the images as natural as possible so they reflect the real, beautiful you.
That is 100% ok and your decision. I will absolutely not share your images if you prefer to keep them private.
