FAQ

1. How do I book a session?

You can book directly via BOOK NOW option or through my website’s Contact form or send an email on info@photographyworld.com.au and I will send you all the information you need to book your session. A session fee and signed contract are required to secure your date.

2. How much does it cost?

The $200 Portrait Session Fee is due when booking your session. This includes: planning of your session, your photography shoot, editing of all images and your private online viewing gallery. This fee is non-refundable, but transferable to another date.

3. When is the best time to book a maternity session?

Maternity sessions are best done between 28–34 weeks of pregnancy when your bump is beautifully round but you’re still comfortable.

4. When should I book a newborn session?

Newborn sessions are best scheduled within the first 5–14 days after birth for those sweet, sleepy poses. I recommend booking while you’re still pregnant to secure availability.

5. Where do sessions take place?

I offer both studio sessions (perfect for newborns, milestone portraits, and fine art family images) and outdoor sessions (great for golden hour family, maternity, and children’s portraits).

6. How long do sessions last?

  • Newborn sessions: 2–4 hours (with feeding, soothing, and breaks).

  • Maternity/Family/Children: 1–2 hours.

  • Mini sessions: 20–30 minutes.

7. What should we wear for our session?

Neutral, soft tones work beautifully. I’ll send you a styling guide and can assist with outfit choices to ensure your family’s look is coordinated but natural.

8. What happens if the weather is bad for an outdoor session?

If it’s raining or too windy, we’ll reschedule at no extra cost. Alternatively, we can move the session into the studio.

9. What if my child doesn’t cooperate during the session?

Don’t worry! I work with children all the time and use a relaxed, playful approach to keep them engaged. Breaks and fun prompts are part of the process.

10. Do you provide props and outfits?

Yes! For newborns and maternity sessions, I have a selection of wraps, blankets, props, and maternity gowns. You’re also welcome to bring sentimental items.

11. How many photos will we receive?

The number of images depends on your package. You’ll receive a private online gallery to choose your favourites for prints, wall art, or albums.

12. Can grandparents or extended family join the session?

Absolutely! Family is everything. Please let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly.

13. Do you offer payment plans?

Yes, flexible payment options are available for packages, wall art, and albums.

14. What if I need to reschedule because someone is unwell?

No problem, we can always reschedule for another day but please let me know as soon as possible. Your deposit is transferable to another date.

15. How long until we see our photos?

Your gallery will be ready within 2–3 weeks after your session. I’ll also invite you for an ordering appointment to help you choose the best products for your home.

16. Do you offer retouching?

Yes, all final images are professionally edited for a natural but polished look. Special requests (scar removal, skin softening, etc.) can be accommodated.

Yes! Gift Certificates are available and make a beautiful present for baby showers, birthdays, Mother’s Day, or simply to surprise a loved one. They can be purchased for a specific package or a dollar amount.

Absolutely. I believe your images should live beyond the screen. I offer professional-grade prints, handcrafted albums, and custom wall art that turn your memories into heirlooms.
