Here's Why I can't wait to

photograph your Family

Perth family photography sessions are just as important as the milestone sessions of your child's early years. They involve dressing up and capturing the love between you all, so you can put photos in frames and fill your home with all that love. It's for your children … and their children. One day, a long time from now, you won’t be around so getting together for an afternoon of family photos is worth a lifetime of happiness and memories.

I promise to make our time together fun and full of laughter. You'll be telling everyone about how stress free the photo shoot actually was. Having a great experience, from enquiry, booking, to photo day and image delivery, is so very important to me.

Part of the experience is hiring a photographer who has the same style as you. But then you also need to find someone who can get the best out of your group (ahem, dads that don't want to be there and two year olds!!) And of course, you need to click with the photographer themselves. I am that person - I always give my very best to every client, I promise.

When you have put in all the effort to look your best for for the photos of your family, the quality of the finished images is of utmost importance. In the photographs we will have captured your children's personalities and all that happened during our time together. When you receive your online gallery, I want you to feel like you are reliving it all again. Since professionally printed products will last more than a lifetime - every time you look at your photographs on the walls in your house, in your albums, and everywhere else that they are displayed, you will always remember this special moment in your life.

"ONE DAY, ALL YOUR CHILDREN WILL HAVE ARE PICTURES OF YOU. MAKE SURE YOU ARE IN THEM. NO MATTER WHAT YOUR HAIR LOOKS LIKE, YOUR MAKE UP OR YOUR BODY. THEY WON'T CARE ABOUT ANY OF THAT. THEY'LL JUST WANT TO SEE YOU "

PRE-SESSION COMMUNICATION

All emails and calls involved in planning the session. Once booked in, I send a pre session questionnaire so that I get to know you all that little bit better.

I will continue to be here to answer any other questions that may come up along the way.

PHOTO EDITING

YOUR PHOTO LEGACY STARTS HERE!

After we have completed your photoshoot, your session images will be loaded onto my computer. Then begins the culling process so that you are presented with only the very best images. I will apply my signature colour edit to your gallery and deliver these to you.

Once you have selected your package and the included images, I will individually hand edit this selection. I will be looking for blemishes, bugs, obvious background elements ... fine tuning until they are ready for final delivery.

HEIRLOOM PRODUCTS

FINE ART PRODUCTS, HANDCRAFTED MEMORIES!

I know we live in a digital era and everyone wants to keep their digital files. I believe that you should be able to print and share your images as many times as you'd like, and that's why every session includes your choice of digital files with a print release included in my packages. The sad thing is that digital files do not last - they either corrupt or technology advances so much that they can no longer be accessed.

So this is my reminder for you to print your photos. My print store gives you access to timeless, heirloom pieces to hang on your wall, display on your shelves or fill your albums. Professional, archival quality products are an absolute must!

ClarenotesLoveJess was able to make our photo shoot fun and
interactive. She kept the kids interested, relaxed
and smiling. She chose a great location that
matched exactly what I described to her.
We had an amazing afternoon and the photos are
perfect. I would totally recommend her to everyone.__________________________________________________ Single flower sketch

PERTH FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY

Family sessions are all about you taking the kids on an adventure and creating memories. I am there to capture the little smiles and the big belly laughs. The intimate details and the in-between moments. My approach is simple. Capture the real stuff, be it scraped knees, giggles and/or bear hugs – everything! The aim is to capture the true expressions of you and your children as naturally and candidly as possible (with a few lightly posed portraits thrown in here and there). Expect to have fun and be yourself. I might ask you to do silly or fun things to help break the ice or to create connections with your family.

In the lead up to your family photography session, I will spend some time finding out what is special to your family by sending you a short questionnaire. We can then collaborate as to the look and feel that you are after. Every family is unique and I love to capture who you really are.

WHEN TO SCHEDULE YOUR PERTH FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION

My family shoots are all about fun – it shouldn’t be stressful at all! I’m with you every step of the way to prepare and make it as easy as possible. I promise, you will love the experience! So don’t wait for a special occasion, or to lose weight, or to find the right dress. All that matters is making these memories with your kids. Expect our time together to last half an hour for a mini session or an hour for the full session. Outdoor sessions usually starts about an hour before sunset.

I think I can safely say – all of my clients ask about location and what to wear. That is why I share my guides with you to get the most out of your session.

HOW TO POSE DURING A FAMILY PHOTOSHOOT

Nearly all of my clients say that they feel awkward in front of the camera. I expect it! You will never know exactly what do, but trust in me as a specialist in family photography, I will guide you the entire time. We’ll be chasing magical light and stunning backdrops, and I’ll be telling you what to do to get the most natural poses that show off your family connection.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

frequently

asked

questions

01

HOW DO I BOOK A SESSION AND HOW FAR IN ADVANCE?

It's never too early to book, I have a busy schedule with four children and a husband that works FIFO, so it's always best to get in early to avoid disappointment.

02

WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR?

I provide assistance and direction with styling for all my clients by sharing a detailed wardrobe guide after the booking fee is paid.

But I know you want to be inspired, so I have some of the key points under the info tab.

03

SHOULD I HAVE HAIR & MAKEUP DONE?

This is completely up to you, I know you will look beautiful in front of the camera no matter what! I do find that mumma’s who invest a little bit in themselves, feel just that little bit more fabulous in front of the camera. And how you feel is what it’s all about at the end of the day!

So if it’s a good excuse to find 45 minutes to escape to be pampered, then go for it!

04

WHERE ARE THESE SESSIONS HELD?

Either in my Carine studio or on location. A list of my locations is sent to you once you have locked in a date. But I know you want to be inspired, so I have them summarised under the info tab.

05

WHAT IF IT RAINS?

We will reschedule your session to the next available date. Weather forecasts aren't reliable enough until the day of the shoot. So outdoor sessions are confirmed the morning of the shoot, and if we have any concerns of dangerous weather or rain, then we will be in touch.

06

WHAT IF WE ARE SICK?

If someone in your family (or myself) are sick, we will reschedule. Sick kids, or adults, will not be in the mood for the fun and energy of a shoot if they are feeling unwell.

07

DO YOU TRAVEL?

Yes, travel within a half hour of Carine is included. Any travel outside this will incur a small fee.

08

WHY DO SESSIONS START SO LATE?

My outdoor sessions always start around one hour before sunset. This is because the last light of the day is the most flattering. For young children this can seem quite late compared to their usual schedule. Try as hard as you can to make suer they don't miss their nap the day of the shoot. Make sure they have a full meal before coming - nobody wants a "hangry" outburst. Pack snacks and water to keep everyone going once we start shooting.

09

I'M LATE FOR A SUNSET SHOOT?

Please do everything you can to arrive on time to your sunset sessions. The time of your shoot has been chosen specifically because of the light at that time, at that location. Starting too early and the sun is too strong, too late and we are losing the light.

10

DO YOU SHOOT EXTENDED FAMILIES?

Yes I do! My mum was one of 7 and my dad 1 of 5. So I have the fondest memories, playing with my millions of cousins when I was little. I love capturing all the generations together for those that are happy to deal with the chaos of large family shoots.

11

DO YOU SHARE IMAGES ONLINE?

Of course! There is no better way to share with my future clients the results they should expect from a session with me. I never use anyone's names though, the world doesn't need to know that. If you have any court orders or other issues about photos being used online, I am very understanding. Please just let me know.
