Lifestyle: Location + In Home

Lifestyle Photography, my happy place.

Lifestyle photography is defined as:

A genre of photography that mainly aims to capture portraits of people in situations, real-life events, or milestones in an artistic manner. The primary goal is to tell stories about people’s lives or to inspire people at different times. Lifestyle photography is about telling a story.

I want to create heirloom art at your session. Images that make you feel the way you felt in the moment with a deep nostalgia so that when you or your loved ones look at these images in five, ten or fifty years  it can take you all back in time to those exact moments & feelings leaving behind a rich legacy for your family to cherish. I want to tick every box at your session; from the timeless family portraits oozing with love & connection to the candid in between details & moments. My heart is to create so much more than just “say cheese” pictures.

Lifestyle sessions are suitable for Families, Couples, Maternity, Newborn (In home) & Business Branding.

My sessions include simple upfront cost, carefully curated digital file inclusions & more, click the below links for more specifics & session pricing.

Scheduling

Outdoor location sessions are all conducted on weekdays at Sunset (or Sunrise). This session timeframe is not negotiable as neither is your image quality – the best images require the best light. If young children’s bed times are a concern consider a winter / cooler month session when these times are earlier or even a sunrise session when kids are fresher! Or alternatively an in home session during the morning may be a more convenient during this season of your life.

See below for approximate session times:

Summer [December – February] 6pm – 6:45pm start time*

Autumn [March – May]  6pm – 4:30pm start time*

Winter [June – August] 4:30pm – 5pm start time*

Spring [Sept – November] 5pm – 6:15pm start time*

(Note session start time will also vary slightly with location choice)

October through to April (spring / summer)  is my busiest time of the year, sessions book several weeks/months in advance over this time with some months booking out many months in advance (October & April particularly). Sessions scheduled during these times or on Fridays (most popular day) should be booked well in advance to avoid disappointment. 

Locations

I shoot at a range of tried and tested nature based locations across Perth that offer stunning beach, river/city, tall grass, open field, orchard, hills, & slat flat backdrops. Please consider that backdrop tones (colours) will change with the season & rainfall. For “greener” backdrops I recommend scheduling over the winter/wet months as over summer Perth tends to only offer dry/grass tones throughout the warmer months. 

I do not shoot at “local parks”. 

In home sessions are held weekdays in the morning or early afternoon in clients homes around Perth. These are a great option for immediate family, newborn, maternity, pets and couples sessions.
