HOW DO I BOOK IN A SESSION WITH YOU?

Send me an email through my contact form - or email me at hello@emilyobrienphotography.net I will then respond with some date suggestions for your session along with some information about your booking. You will then be required to read over and sign a contract.  I will require a signed contract, along with a $295 non refundable but transferable deposit for all sessions, which is payable upon booking. The deposit will be deducted from the total session fee. This will be send over to you once we have locked in a date for your session.

WHEN DO SESSIONS TAKE PLACE?

Please get in touch to lock in your session. All of my IN HOME sessions take place at 10am or 4.30pm Monday - Thursday with the occasional weekend available. All of my OUTDOOR sessions are strictly from 4.30pm (winter) and 5.30pm (summer) up until sunset (for that gorgeous golden afternoon light)  both weekday afternoons and weekends - However my weekend sessions book out quickly. If you like that golden light then an outdoor session would suit what you are after.

DO YOU TRAVEL? IF SO WHERE?

I travel all over Australia for photography sessions, so wherever you are, I’d love to document your family.

I am based in the North West Region of Tasmania. Travel within 50km of Devonport is included at no extra cost. For sessions in the Launceston area or locations between 50km and 100km from Devonport, a standard travel fee of $60 applies. If you're situated more than 100km away, please get in touch for a personalised travel quote. * Please note that you can share the travel fee with a friend/family member if more than one family books a session. This will help discount the travel fee.

If you are thinking of booking in please try and book as early as you can as I often book out months in advance. 

WHERE SHOULD I HAVE MY SESSION? 

Your session can either take place in your home or at an outdoor location that you wish.  Let’s get creative with your session! If you enjoy hanging at the beach, enjoying a summer picnic or hanging out at your favourite spot then let’s photograph there! Let’s stay true to your family and capture those memories of what your family loves most. 

I PAID MY DEPOSIT - WHEN IS FINAL PAYMENT DUE? 

Final Payment will be due 14 days prior to your session. Payment plans are available and credit cards are also accepted -  Just ask me how and I can set this up for you. Bank transfers are preferred. 

WHAT HAPPENS ONCE THE SESSION ENDS - WHEN DO WE GET OUR PHOTOS?

After your session I will edit all of your images, select your gallery and upload them to your Password Protected Online Gallery within 3 weeks of your session. I will then order any products including Albums and Prints. You will receive these within 4  - 6 weeks of ordering.

I HAVE ALREADY PURCHASED YOUR PACKAGE - CAN I UPGRADE TO PURCHASE SOME PRODUCTS LATER?

Yes you certainly can! I have sourced some beautiful products from a variety of professional suppliers. I have a variety of upgrade options available, including enlargements, albums or prints. I can bring some along to your session - Please advise me if you wish me to bring some along. You can view all of my products here.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO OUR SESSION?

If you're unsure about what to wear for your session, I’ve put together a Pinterest board with some outfit ideas to inspire you! I recommend opting for smart casual clothing that complements each other. Light and natural colors like grey, white, navy, peach, soft pinks, mustard, or olive work really well. I suggest avoiding black or very bright colors (like neon pinks or purples) as they can be overpowering in photos. Don’t be afraid to show off your personal style—if you love stripes or flowy floral dresses, go for it! Just please avoid clothing with prominent brand logos, as they can be distracting in your images. If you’re still unsure, feel free to send me a few outfit options, and I’d be happy to help you choose the perfect look! You can view the Pinterest board here. 

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS OR SOMEONE IS UNWELL TO ATTEND?

When it comes to weather, I'm comfortable working in most conditions that come our way, but if it rains, that’s where we stop. In that case, we’ll simply reschedule.

We’ll still go ahead with overcast days, though—those can make for some really beautiful photos!

If you're feeling unwell, no worries at all – we can reschedule. Just let me know as soon as possible.

WHATS INCLUDED IN MY SESSION?

All of my session fees include my time spent with you in your session, digital files which includes minor image retouching in both colour and black and white, an online gallery and a slideshow for you to share with friends and family.  

DO I HAVE TO SIGN A CONTRACT?

Yes you do. The contract is an important legal document outlining exactly what you are getting in your session. It is there to protect both you and me.
