How to prepare : Family Sessions
Family sessions are all about preserving beautiful moments, genuine emotions, and heartfelt smiles. My goal is to showcase you in the best light—surrounded by love, warmth, and joy.
You can choose between a studio setting or the beauty of the outdoors—whichever feels most natural for you. Together, we’ll style your session to create timeless images that you’ll cherish every time you look at them.
If you dream of unique, magazine look like and love-filled photographs, let’s make it happen. Book your session today!

Your outfits should make everyone feel comfortable and confident. You can bring two outfits just in case. Make sure when you arrive with your kids, no matter what age that they have drinks, favourite snacks and a toy.
Personal Styling Tips
Before your session, we’ll have a thorough consultation to understand your vision and ensure your dream images come to life (does not apply to mini session).
Makeup & Hair
We highly recommend having professional makeup and hair for your shoot—it will make you feel more confident and look your best on camera. If you’d like, we can arrange for a skilled hair and makeup artist to enhance your experience.
This is especially beneficial for studio shoots, where professional styling can truly elevate your session. Whether you prefer a natural glow or a bold, dramatic look, our stylists will create the perfect style to make you feel fabulous!
Note: Prepare your shoes for the photo shoot, the soles must be clean so that they do not leave marks on the paper backgrounds in the studio. The shoes you came to the photo shoot in, even if you only got out of the car and into the studio, will need to have masking tape stuck to the soles.
CLOTHING & ACCESSORIES
Here are 5 general outfit tips to help you decide what to wear for your family photo shoot:
1. Create a cohesive colour scheme: Start by picking a main colour and explore different shades within the same family. Neutral colours like navy blue, cream, and beige are versatile and timeless options. Vivid colours are great as well for cool fashion-styled portraits as well for kids.
2. Consider the time of year and location: In the studio, we can create anything but you may want to think about the season of your shoot. Earthy tones for autumn and pastels for spring can complement beautifully.
3. Flatter all body shapes and ages: Choose outfits that suit each family member’s body type and age. Darker shades are universally flattering, but don’t be afraid to add some vibrant colours too!
4. Mix and match textures and patterns: Experiment but keep a balance to avoid visual chaos. It’s all about creating harmony among family members. Avoid big logos.
5. Reflect on your Personal Style: Your family’s personal style should shine through in the photos. Be true to who you are as a family, whether that’s casual and relaxed or more formal.
