Where & when are sessions held?
Melbourne lifestyle family photography sessions are held at your home at 10:30am, Monday to Saturday. Outdoor sessions are held at golden hour (the hour before sunset) at a location of your choice, within 20km of Melbourne's CBD.
As a Melbourne-based lifestyle photographer who loves to travel, I am more than happy to offer my family photography, maternity and newborn photography services in surrounding areas at a small additional cost.
what's your shooting style?
WHAT'S YOUR SHOOTING STYLE?
I’ll take a warm and relaxed approach to our shoot together. My photography style is candid and un-posed, but I will position you in a beautifully lit spot and ask you to play, tickle, cuddle or whisper something silly to your loves.
I'll rarely ask you to look at me, and will often quietly walk around while you are busy 'doing you.' I pride myself on creating a quiet, open space for you to connect deeply, while letting me in enough to shoot those magical little (but big) moments.
I’m all about capturing the essence of your love and connection in a simple, beautiful way.

What if the kids play up?
Having been a nanny for years, I completely understand your concern! But I promise you don't need to worry.
Kids are high energy and unpredictable, and if they are not loving the camera on the day then boy, will we know about it! Just know my sessions are super relaxed, I'm armed with patience, and even have a few little tricks up my sleeve to keeps your little one engaged.
Please remember, even in the chaos there are moments of pure love...those moments won't be missed by me.

WHEN CAN WE SEE OUR PHOTOS?
Waiting is the hard part, but it’ll be worth it I promise!
Your private viewing gallery will be ready in 2-3 weeks following your photography session. But to help get you through the wait, I’ll usually share a sneak peak or two on Instagram in the first week.

what if the weather is bad?
It's no secret golden skies are my favourite to shoot. But let's be real - this is Melbourne. The weather is famous for keeping us on our toes! The truth is, I love all weather conditions - the wind, the soft light of an overcast day, the rainbow after a shower, and the incomparable mood just before a storm. It's all magic. And I'm happy to embrace what nature has in store for us.
But if the rain is pouring or it's freezing cold on the day, we can look at rescheduling your session to an alternative time or day.

What shouLd we wear?
Ideally, you want your clothing to compliment the location. Soft, neutral tones always come up beautifully in photographs.
If outdoors, I suggest warm, plain colours. Embrace textures like knits, corduroy, linen, silk, denim and lace - these are all lovely to shoot. Try to coordinate without being too 'matchy-matchy'. And please avoid clothing with large logos or bold branding.
As your photographs will be in your family for generations, it’s worth putting thought into what to wear. I'm always happy to assist with outfit selection so don’t hesitate to reach out.

Being a nanny for years I get it, oh the shame of your little angel embarrassing you on shoot day *panic emoji insert* !

We absolutely adore Katy‘s work. We’ve had two family shoots with her and were blown away with the end result. She is friendly, easy going and we felt very relaxed during our shoots. She allowed for a very natural, organic experience, where our interactions with our toddler were captured just as they happen in our lives. The dreamy, artistic images are far beyond anything we could capture ourselves,

love notes
I have used ribbons and paper photography on many occasions, from newborn photos to family sessions and I am always amazed at how beautiful the photos turn out! The best thing is Katy makes the experience fun, laughing a lot throughout shoot. My husband hates getting his photo taken but she always make it an easy and relax environment.

love notes
We have had multiple family shoots with Katy and I’m always beyond thrilled with the results. Katy has great way of keeping us looking normal, never staged; which I love, and also keeps our energy up so even our kids have fun. I love getting our family photos and look forward to updating them every year.
