Teen Photoshoots

Fun alternative to graduation photos that celebrate your personality

Capture this special, fleeting moment
– we are only this age once.

Enjoy a fun, confidence-boosting professional magazine-style photoshoot that celebrates your individuality. We’ll create legacy portraits for you and your family to look back on for the rest of your life.

I love nothing more than making my clients feel incredible and create amazing images of them. Most clients are nervous – that is very normal. I am skilled in directing my clients through poses so they look and feel like a celebrity on a Vanity Fair magazine photoshoot.

Imagine how it would feel to bring out the best in you and feel absolutely amazing during an empowering photoshoot experience.

You will look and feel incredible!

“A unique experience that we can cherish and share with family and friends for generations”

A self-esteem-boosting photo experience 

Being young is hard.

I was young once and crikey. I do NOT miss exams. Let alone the weight of expectations.

If you’re after a positive photo experience celebrating the heck outa you right now (and you DO deserve to celebrate you), you’re in the right place.

Don’t let fear or self-doubt get in the way of doing what you really want. You are enough as you are, right now. You are uniquely beautiful and you deserve to celebrate that.

I will help you look calm, confident, and like a Boss in front of the camera - even if you don’t feel like it!

Taking great photos is no accident.

I set you up to win with a fully-guided process.

What is included in your photo experience? 

Hair & Makeup
I always work with a professional hair and makeup artist. I include full hair and makeup, styled to your individual taste: from a no-makeup look (aka “I drank all the water and got all the sleep my doctor would be proud”) to full glam, and hair styling as a complimentary part of the photoshoot experience.

My clients tell me how relieved they feel they do not have to book this in themselves!

What to wear
When selecting what to wear for their photoshoot, some clients feel so much joy doing this - while other clients are filled with Arghhhh. I provide my clients guidance on what to wear. I also give contact details for an excellent Personal Stylist for those who really crave that extra level of help (I did this for myself, and I am SO GLAD I did).

Fully-guided professional photoshoot
You do not need to know what you’re doing in front of the camera! That is what I am here for. Most people feel nervous to start with - that is very normal, and I have created a photo experience designed to help you succeed.

I will guide and coach you through your photoshoot and capture images of your authentically wonderful self for you to treasure for the rest of your life.

Image selection and ordering appointment
One to two weeks after your photoshoot, we will jump on a video call together, and I will share your brilliant photos with you to select from.

I hate it when a gallery of photos is thrown at me after a photoshoot. I’ve had that done to me, and I used to do it myself. It feels impersonal - I want my photographer to help me the rest of the way.

Jumping on a video call together helps to take away the overwhelm for you, and provides a much more personalised experience. I will guide you through you so you can selection the images you love the most - I am here as your cheerleader and guide - your decisions are always 100% yours.

How do you want to be photographed?

I want to take beautiful photos of you that you treasure forever.

Who would you like to be photographed with?
