Must read

Messy play class booking is separate and can be made on their website.

The photography session may be cancelled due to weather conditions.

Only one carer and up to three children are allowed per session. This is not limited to mothers; any parent or grandparent can participate.

Pricing is per family, so separate bookings are required for cousins or friends.

These sessions are not posed portraits; I capture candid shots of children immersed in play. I focus on the children and actively try to include the parent in the photos as well. At the beginning of the session, I take a couple of shots of everyone together before they get messy.

I only take a maximum of 5 bookings per session to ensure I have enough time to capture moments for each family.

Photos are taken between 9:45 AM and 10:45 AM, approximately an hour from the start of the session.

Please arrive 10-15 minutes early so I can take photos of everyone before getting into play.

FAQs

When can I expect to view the photos?

I have a fast turn around of 48 hours.

How will I recieve and downlod the photos?

You will recieve an online gallery link via email for you to view and download.
The download PIN is included in the email.
It contains all the images that are taken on the same day but photos are sorted by each family, so you can choose your folder and easily download.

How long will you store the images for?

The online gallery will be up for 14 days only. The images will be stored for the further 14 days and past this time period I will only be storing a handful of selected images.
It is very imporant that you download the photos within 14 days and also back them up to be safe.
Please get in touch ahead of time to extend the expiry date as there is a re-upload fee of $20.

How do I make the payment?

Bank Transfer Only. My bank details are provided in the email.
I don’t accept payment beforehand as there can be changes. (Class cancellation or personal work commitment)

Could you include my partenr or other family members?

Unfortunately not. However, other family members might be included in the candid shots.
My primary goal is to include mums in the photos when they are interacting with their children in play.
I provide family portrait as a seperate service.
Part of the reason I chose to focus on one carer and chilren is that I can get an even amount of photos for each family this way.

Could you provide the full size images?

I can provide these at an additional cost.
I chose to provide slightly reduced image size as it allows me to export and upload faster and also it takes less storage space.
This factor is reflected in the cost of the service. I’ve not had anyone express concerns about the quality of the images.
