Q. How much does a family portrait cost and what do I get for my money?
A. We have3 different portrait photography packages starting at $150. For $150 you get a professional photo shoot by an award winning photographer in the location of your choice and a minimum of 15, 6"x4" prints, plus a secure, password protected online gallery to share your photos with friends and family. Afterwards, you can choose to get further reprints and/or enlargements if you wish as well as the option to purchase all of your portrait photos on CD Rom..

Q. What should we wear for our photo shoot?
A. Anything you feel comfortable in, although strong colours such as bright red and bold patterns should be avoided if possible as they tend to overpower the subject of the photo.

Q. What do we do if the weather turns bad?
A. If the weather turns overcast, don't worry. Portrait photos will actually turn out better on cloudy days than sunny because there are no harsh shadows although if it is raining it is best to either move indoors or reschedule for another day.

Q. How long does it take to shoot a family portrait?
A. Once everybody has arrived at the location it should take around half to one hour.
