Frequently Asked Questions
-
I specialise in natural, storytelling photography that focuses on connection, movement, and real moments.
This includes:
- Family sessions
- Maternity sessions
- Newborn & in-home sessions
- Extended family sessions
- Seasonal outdoor sessions
My approach is relaxed and gently guided, so nothing feels forced or overly posed. -
I’m based on the Mornington Peninsula and photograph families, maternity, newborns, and extended family sessions across Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula, and surrounding regions including Bayside, South East suburbs and the Yarra Valley.
I have a Location Guide containing my favourite locations. But If you have a location in mind that feels meaningful to you, I am happy to follow your lead! -
Session times vary depending on the type, but most family and maternity sessions run for around 45–90 minutes.
Newborn and in-home sessions are slower paced and guided by your baby, allowing plenty of time for feeding, settling, and natural breaks.
The focus is never on rushing — it’s about creating space for real moments to unfold. -
Yes — I do!
I regularly photograph on the Mornington Peninsula and across Melbourne, Bayside, South East, and the Yarra Valley.I’m also available for further travel across Victoria upon request.
Travel fees are required for some areas.
If you’re unsure whether your location attracts a travel fee, feel free to get in touch and I can confirm this for you. -
If the weather isn’t suitable for your outdoor session, we’ll reschedule to the next available date or adjust the location where possible.
I watch the forecast closely from the day before sessions and will be in touch if I am worried about high winds or heavy rain.
Overcast skies can often create beautiful soft light, so sessions are only rescheduled when necessary. -
I recommend dressing to match the season and wearing comfortable clothing that reflects your style while keeping tones soft and cohesive.
Neutral, earthy, and muted palettes tend to photograph beautifully in natural environments.Upon booking your session, you will receive my What To Wear Guide to assist you in making outfit selections.
-
For outdoor sessions, the best light is golden hour – the hour before sunset when the light is soft, warm, and flattering.
For in-home sessions, I find that late morning light in most homes works best. -
A sneak peek of a few images will be emailed to you within 48 hours of your session.
Your full gallery of images will be delivered digitally within 21 days post session, where you can view, download, and share your images.
All final images are professionally edited and carefully refined in my signature style before delivery. -
