I've never done anything like this before.
That's completely normal.
Neither had most of the women you see on this website.
You don't need to know how to pose. I'll guide you through the entire session from start to finish.
What if I'm awkward in front of the camera?
Everyone is.
For about five minutes.
Then the conversation starts, you stop thinking about the camera, and something shifts.
That's usually when the photographs everyone loves begin.
Can I keep my photos private?
Always.
Nothing is shared without your permission.
If you want your session to stay between us, it stays between us.
Do I have to wear lingerie?
Not even close.
Some women choose lingerie. Others wear denim, oversized shirts, swimwear, activewear or a favourite dress.
The outfit doesn't make the photograph.
You do.
Where do we shoot?
Every session starts with a conversation.
Once we decide the feeling we're creating, I'll choose a location that complements it.
Sometimes that's an Airbnb.
Sometimes a boutique hotel.
Sometimes it's outdoors.
The location should support the photographs. Not be the reason for them.
How do I choose what to wear?
Once you're booked, you'll receive my style guide with plenty of inspiration and ideas.
If you're still unsure, we can plan your outfits together before the shoot.
Do you only photograph women in Newcastle?
I'm based in the Hunter Valley, regularly photograph women in Newcastle and Sydney, and travel throughout Australia and overseas for sessions.
What if I book The Session and want every photograph?
That's exactly why The Feature exists.
Once you've seen your gallery, if you decide you want every edited image and your own printed magazine, you can simply upgrade by paying the difference.
No pressure to decide before your shoot.
Why don't you offer a full gallery without the magazine?
Because I don't want your photographs to disappear into another folder on your phone.
If you want every photograph, I want you to have something physical as well.
Something you can actually pick up. Keep. Look through years from now.
That's why The Feature includes your own professionally designed magazine.
Some photographs deserve more than a screen.
What kind of photographs can we shoot?
Whatever makes sense for you.
Denim. Swimwear. Activewear. A favourite dress. Lingerie. Something more revealing. Or none of the above.
You don't need to fit your session into a category.
We'll figure out what we want to create and go from there.
Can I bring someone with me?
I ask that sessions remain one-on-one.
It creates a more relaxed environment, keeps the focus entirely on you, and allows us to create the best photographs possible.
If you'd like someone to know where you are, you're welcome to share your live location during the shoot or simply tell them where we will be shooting and when we expect to finish.
What exactly do you edit?
Every image is edited for colour, light and overall finish.
Temporary blemishes and distractions are removed, but I don't reshape bodies or try to turn you into someone else.
I want you to look like the best version of yourself. Not a different person.
Still not sure?
That's okay.
Most women don't book the same day they find me.
Take your time.
Look through the galleries.
Imagine yourself in them.
If you keep coming back...
You're probably ready.
I'm ready. What's next?
Choose the collection that's right for you and get in touch.
We'll chat about your ideas, choose a location, organise a date, and I'll take care of the rest.
