I make families feel at ease and capture moments that are real - beautifully unposed, filled with connection, and genuinely you. The result? A collection of images that feel artistic, authentic, and completely yours. I want you to have the best experience possible, from start to finish. Babies, toddlers, kids of all ages - every session is planned around your family. We’ll find a time that works for everyone, choose a location that fits your vibe, and take things at your pace - whether that means slowing down to chase the light or speeding things up before someone needs a snack.

Booking Process

BOOKING
We’ll first lock in a date and time for your session. Once that’s confirmed, I’ll email you a booking request. A $250 deposit secures your date.

BEFORE THE SHOOT
Once you’re fully booked, you’ll get access to my online welcome page with styling tips (yes, what to wear), prep advice, a questionnaire, and a model release.
I’ll also be in touch to chat through ideas, locations, and what you want from your photos.

EDITING & RETOUCHING
Every selected image is carefully edited and delivered in both colour and black & white. I focus on natural tones and a cohesive look.
Extra retouching (small fixes, object removal, skin tweaks) can be added if you want, just ask for a quote.

GALLERY DELIVERY
Within 3–4 weeks, you’ll get a private online gallery to view, and select your images. You’ll receive high-res files for printing and low-res for sharing- because your photos deserve more than living forever in your camera roll.

PRINTS
You can order prints, albums and other products straight from your gallery. I’ve tested many printers and only work with the best labs, so you’re getting beautiful, true-to-colour prints that are made to last. No pressure, no hard sell, just options if you want them.
