Each session begins with a creative fee to secure your date, followed by your choice of package to bring your vision to life. Collections start at $450, with most clients investing around $850. Once you submit an inquiry through the contact form, I’ll share all available package details. Every wedding package can be customized to fit both your style and budget, so I’ll happily discuss your needs to find the right option.

Booking family, maternity, newborn, or portrait sessions starts with a simple contact form. From there, we’ll discuss your session style and lock in a date. I’ll guide you through location choices, styling ideas, and practical tips to ensure everything aligns with your vision. On the day before or morning of your session, I’ll confirm the details and check in about weather or any last-minute questions. Then, we meet at the location for a relaxed, memorable shoot.

Weddings are unique, so I like to start with a phone or Zoom call within 48 hours of receiving your inquiry. This chat helps us connect, discuss your vision, and determine if we’re a good fit. Once you’re ready, a $500 deposit, along with a short questionnaire and contract, secures your date. Afterward, I’ll provide my detailed wedding guide with helpful advice for every step, plus an engagement session or pre-wedding meeting. Unlimited calls are included to keep things on track and easy as your day approaches.

Absolutely! It’s so important to connect with your photographer before the big day. I offer a complimentary engagement session or Zoom meeting to get to know each other and capture a few relaxed, fun images. It’s a perfect way to feel at ease, so come wedding day, we’re ready to capture beautiful moments with confidence and connection.

Wardrobe plays a big role in creating the overall feel of your photos, and I’m here to help guide you. Choose outfits that reflect your family’s personality and suit the setting. After booking, you’ll receive a session guide with plenty of styling tips, and I’ve also shared ideas on my blog. Feel free to send me snapshots of outfit options or any questions—you’ll get personal feedback to help create a cohesive and beautiful look.

I’m delighted to travel within the Bulli-Kiama area at no additional charge, with minimal travel fees for further destinations.

For family and portrait sessions, I aim for a quick turnaround while ensuring quality. Your gallery will be ready in up to 5 weeks, with most sessions completed in 2-3 weeks. Wedding galleries take 6-8 weeks, allowing time to craft a large, beautiful collection of images. You’ll receive sneak peeks within days so you can enjoy a preview while waiting for the full gallery.

Your images will be delivered through a password-protected online gallery, offering both high-resolution and web-friendly options for sharing and printing. You’ll also have access to a premium print store linked directly to the gallery, allowing you to order high-quality prints delivered straight to your door. Although I recommend the gallery’s print store, you’re welcome to print at your preferred lab. For best quality, I suggest professional options over standard print labs to keep your images vibrant and true to colour.

If I ever fall ill, we’ll simply reschedule any family, maternity, or portrait session at no cost to you. When it comes to weddings, I have a trusted network of professional photographers who can step in if needed. If that were ever the case, I’d connect with you first to discuss the options and make sure you’re comfortable. Thankfully, I haven’t had to do this yet—so fingers crossed it stays that way!
