Capturing natural Motherhood bonds, genuine smiles & love that you will treasure forever
Relaxed, fun, natural and unposed, these quick sessions will capture some beautiful, natural moments that you will treasure forever. Mum’s are often the family memory keeper, always behind the camera and rarely in the photo so lets change that and give you, or your Mum, some amazing portraits of you with your favourite little people, just as you all are. There’s no stuffy posing here, no saying ‘look at the camera and say cheese’! Na uh! Just capturing your kids as wonderfully crazy and funny as they are! These quick and easy portrait mini sessions will capture characters, funny faces, your children just as they are because natural moments mean the most. Don’t worry about being shy or awkward, I have games and tricks up my sleeve to make you relax, quite honestly I’ll be the silliest one to laugh at!!
20 minutes is all it takes to catch some beautiful photos to proudly display on your homes walls where you can smile at them everyday! Or if you’re gifting to Grandma, she will get more joy out of photos of her daughter (in-law’s too!) and grandchildren than she will a bouquet of flowers!
Mum’s, I know it can be hard to get in the photo but I promise I’ll help you relax, you don’t need to look at me and I can capture you in sensitive and flattering ways! Your future self will thank you, I promise!

FAQs
What should the kids wear?
You don’t need to dress them super smart unless you want to and they’re happy with that on the day. Do try to dress them in plain clothes, no character t-shirts or large logos as they are very distracting in photos. If you’re bringing 2 children they don’t need to wear the same but try to make sure their t-shirts/jumpers/dresses etc complement each other. For instance we don’t want one child wearing orange and the other wearing hot pink, they just don’t work together! Or one in large florals and another in checks. Plain clothes work best. Try to avoid white as the studio background will be dark so darker clothes blend in and therefore put the focus straight on faces, which is what we want.
How many children can be booked in one session?
A maximum of 4 please. These sessions are only 20 minutes with little time between sessions so the more children there are the less variety there will be, and the quicker they will need to listen to instructions!
Can parents be in the photos too?
You can if you want too! These are not styled sessions so there won’t be any props in the studio for sitting. You’ll need to all stand together, kneel or pick up your children if possible. The intention for these sessions is for kids to stand, be themselves and quickly capture portraits like those shown above.
What if we’re late?
To get the most out of your 20 minute session it would be prudent to be on time! If you are late your session will be cut accordingly so as not to impact on the next session. If you miss your time slot entirely and all sessions are fully booked we will try to rearrange it for another Saturday but you may not get your print before Mother’s Day.
When will we get our photos?
Your photos will be edited and uploaded to a private online gallery within 10 days. You will then be able to choose 2 high resolution photos to download immediately and 1 photo which I will have professionally printed then posted to you in time for Mother’s Day gifting. Your gallery will have up to 10 photos to choose from.
Can we buy extra photos?
Of course! The price will depend on how many photos are in your gallery so you’ll have the option of buying individual photos or the whole gallery when it’s ready for you to view it.
