Hey there,
Choosing a photographer can feel like a daunting task. Because unlike shopping for a new appliance where you might just be looking for who has the best deal, the person you choose to capture these memories makes a big difference to your experience and your final portraits. It is about trust, connection and feeling confident you’ll LOVE your portraits before you have even seen the end result. My job is to create portraits that tell YOUR family's story, and to guide you through every step from start to finish with warmth, professionalism and creativity — so you can relax, enjoy the process, and treasure your images forever.
So what can you expect from a Captured Moments Portrait Experience?
Before Your Session — Planning with Purpose
Your experience begins long before the camera comes out, so before your session we take time to plan.
​
We’ll connect (phone, video call or email) to understand what matters most to you — your story, what you want captured, your style, the overall feel you love and where these portraits will live in your home. We will choose a location based on your vision and style.
​This ensures your session isn’t generic — it’s intentional and tailored to your family.
​
Your date is secured with a $200 non-refundable session fee, which secures your appointment in my calendar. It also covers:
-
Personalised pre-session planning
-
Your customised portrait session
-
Professional editing
-
Your guided online reveal and design appointment
The session fee does not include printed or digital products, but it is applied as a credit toward your final purchase.
​
Once we have locked in your date I’ll send you all the essential info you’ll need before your session — making sure you feel confident, excited, and prepared.​
Your Portrait Session — Relaxed & Beautifully Guided
This is where the magic happens.
​
Sessions are relaxed, enjoyable experiences tailored to you and your family — whether it’s a maternity glow, newborn cuddles, or joyful family moments.
​
You don’t need to know how to pose.
You don’t need perfectly behaved children.
You don’t need to “be photogenic.”
I guide you every step of the way so your portraits feel authentic, connected and timeless. No awkward or stiff instructions — so your real connection and emotions shine.
​
​For newborn sessions, everything is baby-led and unhurried.
For maternity and family sessions, I focus on genuine connection over stiff posing.
The result? Portraits that feel real, timeless and full of heart — images you’ll be proud to display for years to come.
The Reveal — A Guided Online Ordering Experience
Within 2 weeks of your session, we’ll meet for your private online reveal via Zoom — from the comfort of your own home.
​
No rushing out the door.
No organising childcare.
Just you, relaxed, ready to see your portraits for the very first time.
​
The best images from your session are presented in a beautifully curated slideshow. Then I guide you through the exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) part — choosing your favourites.
I’ll:
-
Help you narrow down the portraits you truly love
-
Show you what works beautifully together
-
Mock up wall art collections so you can visualise them in your home
-
Guide you through the options available for your favourite images
-
Ensure you choose confidently — without second-guessing later
This approach gives you the ease of an online appointment with the personal support of a luxury studio experience - so you never feel overwhelmed trying to decide alone.
Choosing Your Portraits
​Because every session is fully customised, you are never locked into preset packages.
​
At your reveal appointment, you simply choose the portraits you love and the artwork that suits your home and family.
-
Printed artwork begins at $350
-
Digital collections begin at $500
Your $200 session fee is credited toward whatever you decide to purchase.
​
This approach ensures flexibility so you only purchase what suits your family — while still allowing you to invest intentionally in portraits that will last a lifetime. Most families invest in a combination of digital files and artwork, creating heirloom pieces to enjoy now and preserve for the future, but the choice is up to you. My role is to guide you through your options so you feel confident in your selections — without pressure and without overwhelm.
