Your Family Photography Experience

Photographs of your family, as you are now

Capturing Your Family's Most Precious Moments

These photographs are not about perfectly behaved children or everyone knowing exactly what to do.

They are about your family.

The way your children fit into your arms. The personalities emerging. The noise, the movement, the quiet connections and all the little things that make this season yours.

You can choose a relaxed session at my farm studio in Helensville, an outdoor location you love, or the comfort of your own home.

I will guide you through the entire experience, from choosing what to wear to creating photographs that feel natural, connected and unmistakably like your family.

Let’s jump in and you can discover the 3 easy steps, and how we can create a little bit of history for your family.

Step 1

Reserve Your Session

Your session is reserved with a signed agreement and a $275 session fee.

Once we have chosen your date, I will help you plan the location, timing and overall feel of your session.

Your $275 session fee includes:

  • Your pre-session consultation

  • Personalised session planning

  • My session preparation guide

  • My family styling guide

  • Wardrobe and styling support

  • Access to the client wardrobe

  • Your photography session

  • Professional editing and retouching

  • Your private online viewing gallery

Your image collection is chosen after you have viewed your finished photographs.

Step 2

Plan, Prepare and Enjoy

Once your session is booked, you will receive everything you need to prepare.

You can send me photographs of outfit ideas, ask for help bringing everyone’s clothing together, or borrow selected pieces from my client wardrobe.

On the day, you do not need to arrive knowing how to pose or what to do.

I will gently guide you when you need it, while leaving plenty of room for your family to move, play and connect naturally.

Children are never expected to perform for the camera.

They can warm up in their own time, explore the space and be themselves. Some of the best photographs happen in the moments nobody planned.

Your only job is to spend time with the people you love.

Step 3

View and Choose Your Photographs

Within approximately four weeks of your session, you will receive your fully edited gallery.

There are no unfinished proofs.

Every photograph you see will be carefully selected, edited and ready for you to enjoy.

Your gallery will begin with a private slideshow, giving you the chance to experience your photographs together before choosing your collection.

Once you have chosen, you can select your digital photographs and the image you would like professionally framed.

Payment plans are available.
