Investment

If you’ve arrived here I’m guessing you’ve already seen some of my work, and liked it enough to wonder how much I charge. But before you scroll on down to see the pricing can I just share super quickly why I do what I do, and what I hope I can give to you?

I’m a mum and I know, like I’m sure you do, how time is a relentless wind, blowing moments from our fingertips and mist through our memories so only vague pictures remain. Sometimes the reality of that just hits you in the chest and takes your breath away.

What I love most about photography is it’s ability to transport you. To another place and time. Giving us a way to revisit those years that sped by all too quickly.

That’s what I want to make for my clients, beautiful and artistic images that are also honest and a true representation of the love and connection you have with one another. So years from now when your babies are grown you can travel back through time to this moment. I’d love to preserve these memories for you!

Joyful Family Photography Melbourne - Yarra Valley Family Photography -

Why Lifestyle Photography?

The joy of lifestyle photography is that it captures real connection and real emotion. It’s not overly posed, and there’s no forced cheesy grins at the camera. The session itself is a time of fun quality time, so not only will you end up with beautiful images, you’ll also have beautiful memories. I’ll ask you to cuddle, to run, to explore and tickle your children. We go at your children’s pace, and are guided by how they’re feeling. There’s usually silliness and dancing and of course plenty of hugs!

What if my kids aren’t feeling it?

When you book with me you get a session guide that helps you prepare for our session, this includes some tips on how to prepare your littles. Some kids are just shy, that’s who they are, and that is totally fine! I always like to gauge how your kids are feeling and will customise the session flow to best suit them. If they’re feeling wild and want to run, let’s play games and tickle and explore! If they’re feeling shy and quiet, let’s get you cuddling, chatting or making daisy chains. Things always go smoothest when you have very few expectations on your child and just trust that no matter how they’re feeling I’ll be able to work my magic and capture some beautiful memories for you.

Where can I have my session?

In your own home or at an outdoor location of your choice! I have a few favourite spots in the Yarra Valley that I am familiar with and recommend. When you book with me you get access to my location guide so you can choose your favourite spot!

How much do clients usually spend?

Seperate from your session fee is a collection price. You’ll be able to select which collection once you’ve seen your images, so you can decide based on how much you love your images (hopefully a LOT). Collections start at $240, but most clients spend a total of $800-$1200 with me. If you’d like more details on pricing just complete the form above and you’ll receive access to my price guide.

Hi Mumma!

Our little ones are small for such a short time! And whilst the good old smart phone has enabled up to capture snapshots, having YOU in the photos with your family is so important!
Let's capture some beautiful photos of the connection between you and your loves!
