There's no need to worry— throughout your family session I'll guide you every step of the way. Sessions last up to 2 hours, so there's plenty of time to relax, settle in, and enjoy the experience. Nothing is rushed, and my aim is to make you feel completely at ease.

When you arrive at the property their are clear sign posts for parking and the studio entrance. You will hear frogs, don't worry thats my sign that you have arrived! just relax and start taking in the experience your about to embark on.

Feel free to bring a selection of outfits with you. I also have a thoughtfully curated collection of clothing and accessories available in the studio. Together, we'll explore the options and create a look that beautifully reflects your family's story.

Absolutely — parents, siblings, and whānau are always warmly welcome to be part of the images too.

All of our wall art and albums are 100% pure New Zealand made, crafted to the highest quality and built to last a lifetime.

When your images are ready to view or download, this is the perfect time to place your order for any physical products you would love to have. You won't need to make any decisions on the day — simply enjoy your session and choose afterwards when you can see your beautiful images in full.

Throughout your session, samples of our wall art and albums will be available for you to view and touch, so you can get a real feel for the exceptional quality before you order.

I'd recommend staying with neutral tones or soft pastels that complement each other rather than clash — think creams, soft blues, blush, sage, and warm neutrals. Try to avoid clothing with big logos, slogans, or busy patterns, as these tend to distract from the real focus. You don't need to match exactly — a coordinated palette across the family looks far more natural and timeless than everyone wearing identical outfits.

If you'd like a hand putting outfits together beforehand, just reply and I'm happy to help you plan it.
