FAQs
Wedding Photography
Are you willing to travel for the event?
I certainly am. I will happily travel to your wedding up to a 50km radius of Mackay at no additional charge. Small charges will apply for weddings outside of the 50km radius. Please discuss this with me when you make your initial inquiry.
How long do I have to wait for my photos?
I will endeavour to have your wedding photos to you within two (2) weeks of the shoot: so before you get back from your honeymoon!
What is included in a wedding photography package?
The wedding photography package includes all the photos I take on your wedding day. They will be professionally edited, high-resolution digital photos, on a private online gallery where you can download high-resolution and social media sized photos.
What is your payment policy for weddings?
A $200 Non-Refundable deposit is paid to secure the booking for your wedding day. And the full payment is required two (2) weeks before the event.

If cancellation is within 14 days of the Event, the full amount owing will be due.
Real Estate Photography
Can I leave photos and artwork out?
Artwork is a yes and colour helps add life to the images. But, for privacy reasons, I advise against leaving your photos or identifying items in your home during a photoshoot.
Can I hire you for my private sale or do you only work with real estates?
I am a freelance photographer so I can do photos for a private property sale. I also work with many Mackay Real Estate agents.

Family Portrait Photography
What do we wear to a group or family photoshoot?
I don’t mind what you wear. However, I advise against wearing stripes as they can look distorted in photos. For a bit of symmetry, I recommend the group where complementary colours. If you want to express your personality through your wardrobe, I welcome it. However, just ensure that whatever you wear is a contrast against the backdrop, so you don’t look washed out or fade into the background.
Who should we include in a photoshoot?
This is something I will clarify in a consultation. However, the short answer is whoever you like – within reason. My standard price for family photos only includes one family unit/household. However, if you want extended family involved in the photoshoot, we can arrange that, and I will provide a quote for the additional members.
Can we include our pets in our family photoshoot?
Yes, we can include pets, so long as they are allowed on the premises and aren’t too disruptive. We don’t want your pets to ruin the experience or photos, so if they are obedient, they are most welcome to come along for the photoshoot.
What is the process for booking a family portrait session?
You can call or email me to see about availability and pricing. After you book with me I start with an email questionnaire . I find that this process allows me to get to know you and your family a bit better. It also helps us get on the same page about the shoot expectations.
