FAQs

What makes your portrait service different?

We are parent friendly. (We are parents ourselves.) We come to you to take the photographs, then we come back to show you the photos. You don’t have to leave home so there is no packing the kids up in the car etc. It's completely hassle-free. We make it entertaining and fun for both parents and kids. 

I have heard that professional photographs are very expensive – how much does it cost?

Well, it is certainly more expensive than doing it yourself, but then your not getting the same as you would yourself. With some photographers you can pay $10 for a photograph or $10,000 - it all depends on the value you percieve and what the photographer believes they are worth. With us you are paying for the years of experience, the vast range of very expensive equipment and the art in the final images.

We believe whole heartedly in the promise of giving more value than what was paid for. Our fees are simple: $159 for the shoot and you get 3 free enlargements for that. If you see the value in paying out for more then  you can spend as much or as little as you like - packages and extras start from as little as $135. No pushy sales, just choices.

How does it work?

Call or email to make a booking – we then come to you to do the shoot, a few weeks later we come back to your home with a projector and big screen to show you your images, you then make your selections.

How good are the photos?

We are full time professional photographers with many years experience in the field. Because we shoot in the child’s familiar surroundings we are able to capture more natural images. We have fun, are passionate about what we do and this comes through in our work. We do have a 100% satisfaction guarantee so there is no risk. 

What if I don't like any of the photos you have taken?

In the unlikely event that this happens, then we stand 100% by our values. Either we do the shoot again or we give you your money back with a big fat apology – your choice and no risk.

Are there any hidden costs and are we obligated or pressured to purchase more photos than the original package?

No. Absolutely no obligation to purchase extra, but of course you are free to do so. We do not believe in high pressure pushy sales tactics.  During the viewing you choose exactly what you want. We do a range of prints, packages and enlargements, starting from $135.

How long do you take on a shoot?

It takes us 15-20 min to set up and then we normally allow for around 2 hours to do the shoot itself.

I don't want a studio style photo, I would rather have the photos taken down at the beach. Is that possible?

No problems at all, we can go anywhere (within reason) that is good for you.

What should we wear and what props do you bring?

Wear whatever you are most comfortable in but it is best to be in un-patterned simple clothing that will not date too easily. For the kids? Whatever they love the most! As for props we bring bubbles, but by far the best is the children's own toys as they are far more relevant to them than some stranger’s wicker basket!

Do you sell vouchers?

Yes we do, and for any amount.

Do you shoot colour or just black and white?

We shoot with state of the art digital camera equipment so we can provide you with a mixture of colour and black and white.

My family are coming from overseas – how will they choose and view the photos?

We can showcase the images online in your own personal web album where they can view and select images from the shoot.

I really like the idea of a canvas, do you do those?

Yes, these are very popular and we can do these to any size up to a metre high and up to 15 metres long if you’re that keen!
