Yanchep Lavender Farm Mini Sessions

YANCHEP LAVENDER IS NO LONGER TAKING PHOTOGRAPHY BOOKINGS

Yanchep Lavender is stunning!! The newest addition is a yummy cafe. But it has had a shop to purchase all things lavender for a long time. Of course, the hero of the trip is the field filled with flowers for as far as the eye can see. Being a working farm, the best time to see the lavender in full bloom is in January, just before harvest. This magic spot has now become so popular. It is a favourite location for photographers in Perth. That is why I am happy to offer Yanchep Lavender Farm mini session dates as well as full sessions amongst the flowers.

If you would like all of your family memories captured in a full session, I would love to do that for you as well. I am not charging the booking fee as part of my Yanchep Lavender Farm Special. This is a saving of $200.

Yanchep Lavender 2018
Thanks again to my daughter Violet. For making making sure I didn’t miss out on capturing a photo of myself in these fields. The camera was way too heavy for her. She was lucky because 1 (out of 100’s) was in focus. And that is all I needed!! It was loved so much by the owners of Yanchep Lavender that they used it in the marketing!!

I would have loved to be here closer to sunset for the beautiful light (instead this super harsh stuff). However, with a five month old tagging along on the adventure, we had to be heading home.

Yanchep Lavender 2020

Family photos in a Perth lavender field is the session I am sharing with you now. These guys managed to get in first and purchase my flash sale offer last year. I decided to have a stall at my children’s fete to get to know more people in my community. The first five people to book a session received drastically reduced priced sessions that could be scheduled anytime during the summer.

I photographed this family way back in 2013 or 2014 if I remember correctly. Now that they have welcomed a little girl they needed to update their family portraits. We agreed that the photo location would be outdoors. Having a fur baby it also had to be pet friendly.

Purple is my favourite colour if you didn’t know. When I discovered a lavender farm in Perth last year I had to visit. The flowers are only in full bloom for a few weeks in January/February. As it is a rare occasion I suggested the lavender field. And dogs were allowed which made it extra special.

My own at Yanchep Lavender 2020

Last year I was lucky enough to discover this working farm and work as a Yanchep Lavender photographer. Purple is my favourite colour, it has been for years. I had to take the girls for photos. Cove was only six months old at the time. He wasn’t included and my husband was away at work. This year I wanted an updated picture of my whole family amongst the blooms.

Things did not go to plan. I had a client booking for a Yanchep Lavender photographer (above). Perfect, I brought my own family to photograph once I was done. Whilst working Rosie was so enchanted she ran through the fields with a bit too much gusto. Somehow she squashed a bee between her fingers and got stung. She preceded to scream hysterically and would not get out of the car. I tried begging and bribery, nope, nothing would get her out.

My husband does not like photos at the best of times. Of course he was encouraging us to leave. But we (all) came this way so I had to get something. I ended up with a fractured family photo again, this time my two big girls and little boy. Cove was loving me so I am glad to get some pictures with just him and I as the sun set over the field.

I am sharing my own fumbling experience but don’t be put off. It is only because I have my heart set on a family photo in the flowers. Yanchep lavender is a beautiful spot with extremely friendly owners. Last year they showed us the distilling process – how they extract the oil. The girls love it and walked away with a lavender filled teddy each and some sample oil pots. They actually want to come every year (despite bee stings) because of this. Another bonus – different flavoured lavender ice cream has been added to the store this year. All the details are available on the Yanchep Lavender website.
