Family Lifestyle Sessions

Having fun – that’s what kids do best, right!

An in-home session is not about showing off your home, it’s about capturing your home life. You might all be making breakfast, baking a cake, building Lego, reading by the fire, painting the house, or just having heaps of fun together – whatever you do on your everyday weekend.

Kids can be shy when a stranger comes into their home and starts taking photos of them but being in their own home environment makes it a lot more relaxing for them than going to a studio. I will always take time to let young ones (and pets) get to know me, usually while I’m unpacking my bag, and this is often when I will get some of my favourite shots while ‘testing my camera’. I will usually do a couple of lightly composed photos, but the rest will be mostly candid, and definitely fun!

If you’re not into an in-home session we can head to your favourite local spot instead. Outdoor sessions are great in the early to mid-morning, or late afternoon as the sun is getting lower in the sky.

But it’s not all about the children!

Why is it always all about the kids? It’s not. I truly believe ‘Family are not just the people you are related to, it’s also the friends who mean just as much as family.’

No matter what mix your family is, I’d love to capture the essence of your tribe, your squad, your whanau, your life, your circle, be it couples, blended families, your grandparents, you and your pet, saying goodbye to a loved one, or your annual dinner with your besties.

This is all family and I love capturing those memories.

All my sessions have options to purchase additional images, or if you love them all you can purchase the full gallery.
You can also share the custom link to your private image gallery with those that may want to purchase their own images.
