1. What life experience made you become a Photographer?
Ever since I can remember, I have seen life through a lens. I lived to photograph and document everything and anything. When I became a mum, I started to photograph my children and know this was my passion and calling. I now run my own full-time photography business capturing beautiful families and babies all around Melbourne.
2. What makes your service unique?
My location is a photographers dream! I have a studio between the beach and Kananook Creek, offering both studio and outdoor photography all-inclusive in the session.
3. Describe your style.
I use natural lighting for newborns to enhance every crease, from their tiny little heads right down to their toes. I love capturing the love, and connection parents have with their new baby. The moments they think the camera is not on them, I capture the glance or a kiss. These are the images that tell a beautiful love story.
4. Do you use a flash?
5. What should I wear to the photoshoot?
Firstly, something comfortable. A family photoshoot should be a relaxed and happy event. You want to look your best but also feel comfortable. Use colour & contrast to bring out the best in your features and skin tone. I advise my clients not to wear clothing with logos, heavy patterns, characters or bright neon colour as this will draw the focus away for your faces.
6. Do you have props and accessories or do I have to provide them?
7. Where does the session take place? Do you have a studion? Tell me about your studio.
I have a warm and welcoming studio filled with natural light. I have set my studio up for my clients to feel calm and relaxed. My studio temperature is set at 26 degrees to make newborns feel comfortable when I undress and change them from set to set. I do all of my family and sibling photos at the start of the session. Young children love to go out by the creek with a grown-up to see the ducks and fish swimming around while I finish capturing lovely memories of their newest addition.
8. Can we do a home session even when our home isn't well-lighted?
9. What happens if the kids don't behave on the day?
10. I have a couple of cute photos from Pinterest, can we do those?
11. What can I do to help ensure that the photo shoot goes smoothly?
Once a client books their session, I send an information and styling guide that will help them prepare their baby and themselves for a memorable photo shoot.
12. What are your packages and inclusives?
My newborn package is $329 and includes my creativity, props and style of your choice, plus ten stunning digital images and access to an online gallery displaying your beautiful collection.
13. What camera do you use? What's your favorite lens?
I use a Canon 5D Mark 2. My favourite lens for newborns at the moment is the Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG HSM Art Lens. I love the clarity and depth of field.
14. How long before I get my photos?
15. How far ahead do I need to book?
16. Is there anything else you would like to share with us?
