Family Portraits
Your family story starts here
We specialise in all kinds of family portrait photography
Maternity, Newborn, Children, Teenagers, Family, Generation and of course Pets!
We are always asked why it is so important to have a professional family photographer to photograph your family's milestones? There are many reasons, but here are a few that stand out to us.
A beautiful family photo is always the hardest photo to get! Usually if mum or dad takes all the family photos this means they are rarely in the photos. After all we take most of our photos so our kids have the memories later - that’s why it’s so important that YOU are in them too!
Another reason to ask a professional photographer is, let’s face it kids don’t always listen to you – their parents… BUT with a professional who has patience and experience everyone will be having fun, the kids, even the dads, so much so that you will forget the camera is even there.

“Family is the most important thing in your life - to you and to us!”
Your step by step guide of how we work
We love the fact that we can offer you different packages to suit your families individual needs. We pride ourselves on being one of the only studios left that offers you beautiful hand crafted printed products. Ranging from simple matted prints, framed art pieces for your walls and gorgeous boutique albums.
Displaying your family photos in your home helps to demonstrate and display the love for your family, especially the kids, boosting their self-esteem. It allows them to embrace that feeling of belonging, with their loved ones, and at home.
Of course we also understand that printed products don’t suit everyone. We also offer high resolution digital packages giving you the ability to print and frame the images yourself.

We invite you in person or via zoom to chat with your photographer Graham about your photo shoot in detail. Every family is unique, we want to get to know your family before the photoshoot, your children’s personalities, what they love to do and how we will achieve. We will cover what to bring and what to wear to the shoot. There is no limit to the number of people you can bring to the photoshoot, feel free to invite the extended family along. If you have any references of photos that you would like to achieve, please send these to us before this meeting.

Your photographer, Graham and talent director, Joy will make you feel comfortable in front of the camera and have many tricks up their sleeve to achieve natural and fun images. The shoot takes place either in the comfort of your own home or on location.

Please allow 1-2hours so there is no rush, we want you leaving completely satisfied with your purchasing decisions. Together we will consider different image combinations, looking at size, finish, black & white or colour and some creative colour treatments. If possible, we suggest organising a baby sitter for young children.
