Got Questions? Let Me Answer Those For You

1. What if it rains?

Ah the wonderful British weather! In the lead up to your photoshoot I will keep an eye on the forecast. If weather is looking too iffy for outdoor photos I will schedule in another day with you.

2. What should we wear?

School photos call for your finest school uniform! Don't forget important details like school council badges.

3. What will my session be like?

My natural approach means I keep things relaxed and genuine. Sessions will be child-led meaning we go with the flow and capture your child as they are. As we chat, giggle and play with the kids I will click away to ensure I'm authentically capturing your little ones personality. There will be some gentle guidance from me but no cheesy smiles here.

4. What Should Parents Do During the Shoot?

Parents will stay with us to help their child feel comfortable and relaxed. Standing behind the photographer (that's me!) being silly is strongly encouraged.

Note: You do not have to tell your child to smile. That's where the being silly comes in!

5. What if my children Dont play ball?

Kids will be kids so let's embrace their unique quirks and unbounding energy! There may be giggling fits or minor grumps but that's life, isn't it?

The outdoor location I have chosen is relaxed and informal, to help children feel at ease. And I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve to ensure your photoshoot goes smoothly.

6. My child is apprehensive about having photos taken

Most people, including me, feel unsure about having their photograph taken.

Tell your little one you are meeting your friend Debbie for a playdate in the park. Let them know I am a big kid at heart who loves playing and appreciates silly jokes.

7. When will I receive my images?

You will receive your private online viewing gallery within 2-3 weeks of the photoshoot. Please allow a little extra time during the school holidays.

Here you will be able to select your favourite digital images to download. You will have the option to upgrade to the full gallery and invest in professional prints.

Prints will be delivered to you within 4 weeks of your order.
