Before we start
If you haven't already, I would start by having a read through the different services I have to offer below.
Through these links, you will find specific information about what to expect from each kind of session.
the process:
1 - RESERVE A SPACE IN MY CALENDAR & PAY YOUR SESSION FEE
Once you've reserved a date I'll be in touch with your invoice to pay your session fee. Newborns are temporarily booked in using your estimated due date (we finalise your actual date once bubs is here) and all other bookings are made using my calendar booking system.
2 - START PREPARING FOR YOUR SESSION
Once your session fee has been paid and you've signed your contract, you'll be all locked in. I'll then send you a comprehensive preparation guide & questionnaire to help you prepare and start bringing your vision to life.
3 - PAY FOR YOUR CHOSEN IMAGE PACKAGE & HAVE YOUR PHOTOSHOOT EXPERIENCE
You'll need to pay for your chosen image package by the day of your session (you'll receive a quote to choose this about a month before hand). Then the magic happens!
4 - REVIEW YOUR IMAGES & CHOOSE YOUR FAVOURITES
2 weeks after our time together, you'll receive an edited gallery to choose your favourites from. These will be a mixture of black and white. You'll have 7 days to make your selections and upgrade if you'd like to do so.
5 - FINAL PROCESSING
After the 7 days, I will take another week to go away and perfect the images you love, taking on any feedback you may have (e.g. removing specific blemishes) and giving them the final touches they may need to hang beautifully on your walls forever.
6 - RECEIVE YOUR FINAL GALLERY & PRINTS
After 4 weeks, your final gallery will be available to download in web size & high resolution and will remain open for 12 months for you to download as many times as you need. You should also receive your prints 1-2 weeks after this time.

Frames & Albums
I know first hand how busy life can be with children and work commitments. The juggle is real! Your most precious memories don't deserve to stay hidden away in your phone gallery or hard drives, so I've put together a print service that allows you to purchase prints right from your online viewing gallery!
All my printing is done through professional print labs in New Zealand &
Australia who pride themselves on high quality products. This isn't the cheapest way to print, but if quality is important to you, you can rest assured that their products and processes are designed to last generations, their colours will be accurate and it will all be delivered straight to your door or you can pick up locally from my studio.

Postpartum images
As mothers, we truly do sacrifice so much to bring our children earth side and
this journey will take you to places deep inside yourself you never knew existed.
You will have to surrender to so much outside of your control and be stronger than you ever knew you could be.
Your body may be softer and unknown. While society doesn't seem to want to
appreciate our bodies at arguably their most glorious stage in life, I want to hold space for you to celebrate these changes and experience.
To do this, at the end of your newborn session, you will have the opportunity to
have some photographs taken to celebrate your postpartum body. It's not for
everyone, and I definitely don't want to pressure you. But if you want to
document your body and all the changes that motherhood has bought to it -then I will happily capture this for you.
THESE IMAGES WILL BE FREE.
