Families, couples and portraits

Are we a good fit to work together?

Well, if you are happy to capture life as it is lived, and you’re too busy living it for perfectly posed shots; and if your priorities are laughter, fun, games, and loved ones, then we'll get along great!

Together, we’ll create the kinds of photos that you love to look at - natural authentic and beautiful images of you and your tribe, images that tell your unique visual story.

We will talk before your shoot about everything that’s needed to prepare. The kinds of clothes you might wear, the types of pictures you want so that we both understand the end results you’re seeking.

This session is all about you and your people spending time together, no performance necessary. Just relax and be yourselves.

As well as your personalities, I’ll aim to capture the shared moments in between – the hugs and laughs, the look, the smile, the moment - seeing things relaxed and natural, and using natural light gives me the chance to get the candid shots you’re after.

I’ve lived in Adelaide for almost half my life, so I have a wealth of local knowledge about great locations, but if there’s a place that's special for you, please let me know.

If the weather looks like it won't cooperate on your shoot day, or if your kids are unwell, you’ll have the option to reschedule.

Check out ideas for shoots below.

To find out how it all will work take a look at the FAQs

Family Sessions

Family sessions usually last between one and two hours. I’ll keep shooting until I have all the shots I need, as long as everyone’s happy!

Sessions can take place in your home, outdoors, or a combination of the two. I have some great location ideas or I’m happy to shoot at your home and garden, so don’t worry if you don’t have a favourite spot in mind, I have plenty of suggestions.

You’ll get a wide variety of images, including lots of candid shots and if you’re a larger family everyone will be well represented in the photos!

Couples Sessions

Although these shoots are great for engagements, they’re not just for people who are tying the knot!

There doesn’t need to be a special occasion - they can also be a great way of treating yourself and your other half to a shared experience, and whether you've been together for six months or 60 years, it's great to remind ourselves why we mean so much to each other.

If you’re visiting Adelaide, your session will mean you’ll have a unique, personalised memento of your trip - one that will be around long after you’ve polished off your Fruchocs and savoured your last drop of delicious Barossa wine!

Your shoot will last one to two hours. If you know which landmark, street, or part of Adelaide and surrounds you’d like as your backdrop, we’ll use it. Whether you love green spaces, beaches, or prefer dramatic views, this city will have a location that suits you and fits the mood you’d like to capture.

In your session, my focus will be on making sure you feel at ease and creating images that reflect who you are, and the connection between you, as honestly as possible.

Portrait Sessions

How do you celebrate you? Significant birthday? New phase of life? Graduation? Or just want some decent photos that aren't selfies?

Do you love green spaces, beaches, or prefer a more urban backdrop?

We’ll find a location that suits you and fits the mood you’d like to capture.

During your session, my focus will be on making sure you feel at ease and creating images that reflect who you are, as honestly as possible.

Your session can take place at an outdoor location you enjoy spending time in or around your home.

Home sessions are a good option for younger children and babies, or kids who aren’t so comfortable with new people. If you’d like an outdoor shoot, but don’t have a specific spot in mind, I’m more than happy to suggest settings that will suit the kind of photos you want.

Family sessions last between one and two hours. This might seem like a long time. But, it can sometimes take a while to get the best from your session, especially if there are quite a few of you! That said, I’m very much guided by you, your kids, and how you’re feeling.

Whichever location you choose, if we’re out and about, we can start by having a stroll, exploring our surroundings, and getting to know each other while I snap away. I might suggest some poses, but never anything forced. I concentrate on working spontaneously, so I can capture your family as they really are, instead of the way they think they should be because they’re in front of a camera.

The best pictures are often the ones where everyone’s focused on, or interacting with, one another. So, be warned! I’ll be encouraging you to let your hair down and play, joke, and chat.

Doing these things means you’ll feel relaxed, your expressions will be genuine, and I’ll be able to create timeless images of you and your loved ones that I hope will bring back lots of happy memories!
