Frequently Asked Questions
Let me answer some questions you might have…
-
Once we’ve settled on a date for you session, I will send you an invoice for your $200 session fee (non refundable) and also a session contract. To secure your booking, simply make payment of the session fee and digitally sign your contract. I’ll be notified automatically once these two tasks have been completed. Easy-peasy!
-
After your session, I’ll busy myself pouring over all of the gorgeousness we captured together and start preparing your gallery. Once you’ve seen your imagery, which is sent via an online gallery platform, you can choose and pay for your preferred package - only buying what you love :)
-
Your carefully curated online gallery will be delivered within 2-3 weeks from your session date. Your gallery typically consists of 60+ images edited in a mixture of colour and black and white and will initially contain a watermark.
Once you have selected and paid for your session package, you will simply need to ‘favourite’ your chosen images and I’ll arrange for these photographs to have my watermark removed. Your beautiful imagery will then be ready for you to download in high resolution and for web friendly sharing.

I’m a huge advocate and believer in printing and displaying photographs - there’s something magical about catching a glimpse of a memory hanging on your wall or suck to the fridge door. It pulls you back to a time you thought you’d never forget - and you smile and marvel and reminisce.
So YES - you can definitely purchase additional prints and other products too.
You will find a store attached to your gallery where you will have the option to select additional products such as fine art albums, framed prints, canvas art and additional prints.
All products offered are of the highest quality and prepared by the oldest professional printing lab in Australia.
You can also add additional photographs to your package at $20 per photograph, or 10 photographs for $100.

There is something so very special about capturing your new little bundle in the comfortable surroundings of their own home - the place where they were dreamed of, long before they’d arrived. Newborn Storytelling Sessions are typically captured in the home, on exception a meaningful outdoor location can be arranged.
Family and Motherhood/Maternity sessions can be held at home or at an outdoor location of your choice. Outdoor sessions are usually captured in the delicious, dreamy ‘golden hour’ light close to 1 hour before the sun sets.

Congratulations Mumma - your little babe is so lucky to have chosen you as their mum.
If you are looking to secure a maternity session and capture your gorgeous baby bump, choose a date during your 34th to 36th week. Of course you can book later into your pregnancy, if you’re feeling up to it.
Newborn Story Telling Sessions are best captured within the first 10 days of your beautiful babe(s) being born, however this depends entirely on how you are recovering and feeling. Provide your due date when booking and we can schedule your session in once baby is earth side.
-
Your session will usually run for 1-2 hours.
My sessions are very relaxed and family led - so this timeframe is simply a guide to help you to plan your day. I won’t end the session until I am satisfied that I have captured all that I set out to take of you and your beautiful family.
-
This is a VERY good question, and one you need not stress about.
A few weeks out from your session, you will receive a comprehensive preparation and styling guide from me which will cover ALL the things such as what to wear, what photographs well, as well as how to prepare your home and family for your upcoming session :)
-
Yes I do, however some locations outside of metro Melbourne may incur a travel fee - I’ll let you know at the time of booking if a travel fee is required.
-
Absolutely! You can purchase any value amount to go towards a session package for someone special. Or you can gift them a complete package :)
-
Absolutely! Did you know that I actually once worked as a collection officer? I am all about payment plans and making things work for my beautiful clients. I wholeheartedly believe that every family deserves to have their unique story told and for their beautiful ordinary lives to be captured - so please reach out to discuss setting up a payment plan, if this is something you’d like to do.
