I work across Melbourne and throughout the beautiful Yarra Valley. You can choose either an in-home session, or I can help you find the perfect outdoor location for your photos. If you have a special location in mind, I’d love to hear about it.

After you have booked, I’ll be in touch to provide you with customised styling advice tailored to your family and your session, to help you choose outfits that photograph beautifully and feel like you.

You’ll receive your fully edited gallery within 3 weeks of your session.

Each collection includes 20-25 High Resolution Digital Images, carefully selected and professionally edited. You’ll receive access to a private online gallery where you can view and download your images. There is an option to upgrade to a full gallery (40+ images) for an additional $200.

Sessions typically run for 60–120 minutes. I allow time for cuddles, snack breaks, feeds, and anything else needed. We go at your family’s pace.

There’s no need to deep-clean or redecorate. I’m drawn to the lived-in, light-filled spaces where life actually happens. A quick declutter of a few areas with good natural light (bedroom, living room, nursery) is perfect. I’ll guide you in the lead-up to our session and when I arrive.

If rain or high winds are forecast, we’ll reschedule at no extra cost. I keep a few flexible dates available each month for this. If it's just a bit overcast, we usually go ahead (cloudy skies make for soft, dreamy photos)

It happens to the best of us! If you’re running late, please send me a message to let me know, I’ll do my best to accomodate, but your session may be shortened depending on the circumstances and available daylight.

Absolutely, they’re part of the family too. They bring warmth, fun, and a little extra magic to your photos, I’ll gently incorporate them into the session in a way that feels natural and relaxed.

Outdoor sessions are usually scheduled around sunrise or sunset for the softest, dreamiest golden light. In-home sessions usually happen mid-morning when natural light is most gentle. Maternity sessions are ideal between 28–36 weeks, and newborns are often photographed in the first 3 weeks, though there’s beauty in every stage.

I do! I love capturing the joyful chaos of larger family groups. These sessions are priced a little differently to allow for extra time and editing, reach out for a tailored quote.

If you or your child are unwell or something unexpected comes up, just let me know as soon as you can, I understand that life happens. Cancellations with less than 48 hours’ notice (excluding emergencies) may result in a forfeit of the session fee.

Yes. I’m more than happy to arrange a flexible payment plan. Whether you’d like to split payments or space them out in the lead-up to your session, just reach out and we’ll find something that suits.

Yes, if you book two sessions - such as maternity and newborn - you’ll receive a $200 discount.
