Portrait Sessions


Award-winning family photographer based in Whangarei, Northland


One of my favourite types of photography is family photos, usually in the beginning of our session I will get those posed portraits out the way, then we relax run around and capture the fun. My whole aim in a family photoshoot is to make it an enjoyable and fun experience for all, so that when the time comes to update the photos everybody will remember what a great time they had the last time.


You can bet that if we will get wet or dirty probably best to bring some spare clothes.

Pricing & Packages


There are 3 packages to choose from depending on your needs. I don't charge a separate session fee, but there is a $250 deposit required upon booking, with the remainder due the day before your session.

There may be travel charges for your session depending on the location you choose. Just get in touch and I will be able to help with this.



What happens next


First thing is to get in touch for a full price guide and portrait session information sheet. Next will be to book a session which you feel is best for you, I am happy to discuss the options available and to find the best one to suit you and your family. There are a few options, you may like to come to the studio where I have indoor and outdoor options, or you may like it at home, the beach or your favourite park.


We will have a phone consultation for the finer details, to make sure that I know your family's needs. From here it is a matter of booking a suitable time.
