Your session will be individually tailored to meet the needs of you and/or family. Portrait sessions are never rushed and typically last anywhere from one to two hours in your own home or location of your choice. I also like to devote ample time for your session, in order to give your family the time and attention you deserve, and in order to capture the moments you will treasure and will work around naps, feedings, and the individual needs of you, and your children.


Plain clothes without patterning are ideal for parents and children (avoiding pale pastels or whites). Jeans turn out well in photographs for adults or older children and give a relaxed feel to your images.

Babies are usually photographed in a plain white nappy or again, plain clothing without too much patterning.

f there are any clothes in particular you wish to wear please let me know and I will also photograph these accordingly. If you have any hobbies or special interests please let me know and we will incorporate it into your shoot. Alternativly, if you wish to work with a particular colour scheme, clothing can be chosen to suit, eg, if you wish to hang a picture in your childs room which has pink decor, a pink top would complement the room well.


Children respond well to favourite toys and the atmosphere can be relaxed with music playing in the background. Baby wipes and soft white towels also come in handy.
