An easy morning
for everybody.
Twenty-eight years of doing this has mostly taught us how to stay out of your way while still getting every single child.
What's included
Individual portraits
Every child with consent, several frames each, in warm natural light. Never a hard flash and never a grey backdrop.
Room groups
Every room together, plus a named print for your wall so families can put faces to the names.
Sibling photos
Children enrolled together, photographed together. Included, and always one of the most ordered things we make.
Educator portraits
Individual and team photos of your staff, free, licensed to you for your website and foyer.
Grandparents' morning
If you run one, we'll come and photograph it at no charge. These end up being the most treasured pictures we take.
No work for your team
Ordering, payment, questions and reprints all come to us. Nobody in your office handles an envelope.
How the morning goes
7:45 — we arrive and find where the light's best. Every centre is different and we'd rather work that out before the children are up.
8:15 — consent list checked with your nominated supervisor, name by name.
8:45 — nursery and toddlers first while they're at their brightest.
10:30 — preschool rooms.
11:45 — room groups and educators.
Twelve days — galleries open and families are emailed directly by us.
Within a month — we return for anyone who was away.
What we need from you
A spot with decent light. Near a window or a doorway is perfect. About three metres by three.
Your consent list a few days beforehand.
Fifteen minutes of your nominated supervisor's time on the morning.
Nothing else. We don't ask you to hand out forms, collect money, chase families or answer questions on our behalf. We never have.
The little ones and the tricky mornings
Babies are photographed wherever they're happiest, usually in an educator's arms, and we crop the grown-up out afterwards. It's kinder than propping them up and the pictures are much better for it.
A child who's having a hard morning gets left in peace and we try again later. If it's still no, they go on the catch-up list and we get them next visit. Nobody is pushed and no family pays for a photo that wasn't taken.
The 2027 diary starts in March
Our existing centres are offered their usual week first, then whatever remains opens up. The March and April weeks are always the ones that go.
