FAQs
Where are you based?
I live in the Deep South of Western Australia, however my work takes me around the state, the country and internationally.
I don’t charge a travel fee for sessions in Perth or the South West. If you aren’t in this area and interested in my work, please get in touch for a travel estimate.
Are you a film photographer or digital?
I shoot both! I use a combination of both mediums.
What kind of equipment do you use?
I use both film and digital equipment. Contax 645 (medium format) and Canon 35mm film bodies. Canon digital bodies, with prime lenses. I also always carry back-up equipment.
We are a bit nervous in photos! Will you give us any guidance?
I can totally relate! Don’t worry everyone gets a little nervous!! I like to incorporate a mixture of gentle direction & then see what natural moment unfold. Ultimately it’s about capturing you guys, so usually this direction will be something simple - just to make you feel relaxed and capture a genuine moment together.
On booking, I will also send you my handy tips/advice for your session.
I’m not sure how our kiddo(s) will go in the photographs!
Don’t worry I am a mum of two crazy (but beautiful!) boys!! I know kids are just kids and sometimes we have to cross our fingers & hope for the best. It definitely helps if everyone is well slept & fed and we make sure that the shoot time isn’t scheduled during/close to a nap time. I encourage all my families to bring along snacks just incase we need to stop along the way for a break. Being a parent I know a little ‘special treat’ bribery can go a long way, however sometimes it is good to savour these until towards the end of the session, so we don’t have a sugar crazed kiddo!
Do you offer gift vouchers?
Yes! Honestly they are such a beautiful present to gift to someone. Whether it be for a special Birthday, Christmas, Mothers Day, new arrival or to say thank you - they seem to be a perfect present for any occasion.
Please contact me & I can send you a beautiful voucher.
Do you offer maternity & newborn Packages?
Yes! I offer a discounted package for families who would like to combine a maternity and newborn session. Please contact me & I can send you a list of my full Packages.
When is the best time to do our newborn session?
The most ideal time to photograph your new precious babe is when they are around 5-14 days old. Usually they are still quite sleepy & very happy to snuggle up for some beautiful photographs.
We love your work & would love to secure a time with you.
Yay! Please contact me via phone or email to check date availability and we can lock in a time.
How long till we can view our photographs?
Post production takes approximately 5-8 weeks, the warmer months are often quite busy with lots of portraits & weddings. In saying that if you are needing a photograph sooner for an announcement (newborn etc.) then that can easily be arranged. When your gallery is ready to view, I will contact you will the details.
