Once you book, you’ll receive a style guide and access to my client wardrobe.

I’ll help you choose what photographs best for your location and session type.

For outdoor & in-home sessions — absolutely, pets are always welcome.

For studio sessions — pets are not permitted, except for reptiles.

This is to protect the space for newborns, families with allergies, and future clients.

Yes.

I gently guide you into natural positions that feel comfortable, relaxed, and real — nothing stiff or forced.

Your session can be as active or calm as you want.

High-energy kids? No problem — we’ll play some games and let them lead the fun.

Slow, romantic maternity vibes? I’ll guide you with soft movements and elegant poses that create a dreamy, effortless gallery.

Life happens — and I totally get it.

If the weather isn’t suitable or someone in your family is unwell, we’ll simply reschedule. I keep the process easy and flexible so your session feels good, not rushed.

However, if a session is rescheduled three times at the client’s request (for weather, illness, or any other reason), an additional non-refundable $50 retainer will be required to secure a new date.

This helps keep the calendar fair and accessible for all clients.

Gallery delivery is typically 2–3 weeks.

Busy seasons may take a little longer, but I’ll always keep you updated.

If you just can’t wait, rush editing is available for $75.

Your full gallery will be delivered within 3 business days.

A $50 retainer secures your date for all standard sessions.

For maternity & newborn bundles, a $100 retainer is required to hold both session dates.

The remaining balance can be paid anytime before your session.

I offer Afterpay (10% surcharge applies) and PayPal, as well as standard card payments.

Please note: a small surcharge applies to all card transactions.

Yes — extended family can join, but only for the Story Collection.

Just let me know how many people are attending so I can plan the flow, timing, and location to suit everyone comfortably.

I shoot across the Scenic Rim, Beaudesert, Logan, Ipswich, the Gold Coast, and Brisbane City, with a wide variety of locations to match any vibe.

I have access to:

• farm properties with Highland cows, horses, and ponies

• beautiful flowing creeks

• wide open fields

• mountain-view lookouts

• sandy beaches

• rocky clifftop beaches

• soft in-home sessions

• rustic dairy

• my Beaudesert studio

• urban rooftop carparks

No matter your style — warm, adventurous, romantic, or relaxed — there’s a perfect location for your session.

After your session, you’ll receive a preview gallery so you can choose the images you love most.

If you decide you want more (and most families do), upgrading is simple and seamless.

Upgrade options:

• $100 — add a curated selection of 20 images

• $200 — upgrade to the full gallery, usually 40–70+ images depending on your session

You’ll always see your exact upgrade choices once your preview is ready.

No pressure, no surprises — just beautiful options to keep as many memories as you’d like.
