Frequently Asked Questions
What if...
...my baby is born late?
No problem - I always leave a day available in the week for such changes; we can simply discuss the next best date for you and baby.
...I need to change my session?
As a mother, I understand that things change due to illness or unexpected events. Simply notify me as soon as possible, even if it is 6am on the morning of, and we can look at rescheduling your shoot. There is no extra cost to do so.
...my newborn / baby / child doesn’t want to co-operate?
Upon booking your session, you will receive a Prep Guide to best prepare your child for their photoshoot. Following the guide has proven to assist in the success of your session and I'm well known for my patience with children.
...I would like to pay in instalments
Instalment payments are available for Milestone Packages. For more information, please call me to discuss.
...I would like to order more images, prints and frames?
Absolutely, we can discuss this when you receive your gallery and find choices that best fit with your display ideas.
What to wear
My style is calm and fresh, using subtle tones to compliment the natural studio setting or outdoor surroundings of a location shoot.
Dress your family members in neutral tones if possible, avoiding bright colours, heavy stripes, logos, pictures or words on clothing. There is no need to be in formal wear or have family in matching colours, just tones and styles that compliment each other and take the season into account. Darker or earthy hues such as olive, tan, rust, mustard suit autumn and winter, and lighter fresh colours such as cream, blush, tan, pastels for spring and summer. Chunky knitted sweaters, jumpers, cardigans and hats look lovely in autumn/winter photos too. Please wear comfy shoes as we will be walking in grass or in the sand.
If you have booked a Newborn Shoot, please have baby wear something loose and easy to get out of and a change of clothes in case of any accidents.
A Studio Wardrobe is available for Maternity and Newborn - 18 months.
Upon booking your session, you will receive a Prep Guide which includes a Style Guide.
