Lifestyle Portraiture

Lifestyle portraits capture the range of human relationships and experience and can include babies, children, singles, couples, friends and families. Photo sessions take place either at my studio, or on location at your home or outdoors.

The session packages below are the most popular, however any package can be customized to your needs.

Sessions are priced separately to prints, because often you don’t know exactly what you want for prints until you’ve seen them. Large box-mounted and canvas prints available to purchase.

Please contact me to book a session or ask any questions.
