Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What if my kids won't cooperate?
A: This is totally normal! I specialize in working with real families, which means wiggly toddlers, shy kids, and everything in between. We'll work at their pace and capture beautiful moments even if they're not looking at the camera.
Q: What should we wear?
A: I provide a detailed styling guide after booking, but think soft, natural colors and comfortable clothes you feel confident in. Avoid busy patterns and matching outfits – coordinating is much more beautiful.
Q: What if the weather isn't perfect?
A: Some of my favorite photos happen on overcast days! We'll monitor the weather together and reschedule if needed. Light rain can actually create magical, moody photos.
Q: How far in advance should we book?
A: I recommend booking 3-4 weeks ahead, especially for weekend sessions. Popular times like spring and before Christmas fill up quickly.
Q: Do you offer payment plans?
A: Yes! I offer flexible payment options because I believe every family deserves beautiful photos. We can discuss what works best for your budget.
Q: What if I don't want my images shared on social media?
A: Not a problem at all! Just let me know and they won't be shared anywhere. Your privacy and comfort are my top priorities, and I completely respect families who prefer to keep their photos private.
About Jodie
I'm a mum, and storyteller who fell in love with photography because of its power to freeze time. Based in the beautiful Sutherland Shire, I'm inspired by family, sunshine, and the ocean which you'll see reflected in every image I create.
My approach is simple: I want you to feel comfortable, celebrated, and completely yourselves. These photos aren't just for your walls they're for your grandchildren to treasure, and your hearts to hold onto forever.
When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me at Cronulla Beach with my own family, probably chasing perfect light and soaking up those golden hour moments that make life so beautiful.
Let's Create Something Beautiful Together
Your family's story deserves to be told with warmth, authenticity, and heart.
