Dreamy Extended Family Portrait Session // Sydney Photographer

A Mother's Day Gift results in a Dreamy Extended Portrait Session

Rebecca was gifted a de lumière portrait session for Mother's Day to update the images of her gorgeous family, along with Nanna!

Sarah met them at Yarrramundi River early on a misty Saturday morning armed with her trusty bag of goodies and boy are we glad she did because Zoe and Declan were not convinced that having their photos taken was a good idea.

Hang on, what's in Sarah's goody bag?!

As a parent herself Sarah knows that kids can take some time to warm up so she always packs bubbles, a couple of books, and some toys to play with. It just so happened that one of the books was The Very Cranky Bear - Zoe and Declan's FAVOURITE book.

After some coaxing Declan sat and read with Zoe, and then forgot completely that he was shy and moved on to giggling and popping bubbles with gusto.

Creating a Family Heirloom

Included with Rebecca's gift voucher was $100 credit, and once she viewed her gallery of images Rebecca chose to create a family heirloom by purchasing a Storybook Album.

We loved their album so much that we couldn't resist sharing a couple of our favourite pages with you!

Family Portrait Photography

A de lumière family portrait session is a relaxed affair. Consider it a casual catch up where we start with getting to know each other before you almost forget that we’re there.

Candid shots are our specialty! We let you interact with your loved ones and let your kids get on with their games.

That’s when the most natural shots magically happen. Wait and see.

How long does a family photography session take?

We allow up to one hour to capture your immediate family and 1 ½ hours for an extended family portrait session. That gives us enough time to work with toddler tantrums, different dynamics and a few different backgrounds.

Can you help us choosing photography locations for our family photography?

We capture families all across Sydney and have compiled some of the standout locations in this handy guide. If you’re looking for locations in the heart of Sydney, then Watson’s Bay, Nielsen Park, Little Bay, The Rocks and The Royal Botanic Gardens are a safe bet. We love anywhere with gorgeous Australian backdrops! The stunning Blue Mountains also lend themselves perfectly to outdoor family photography. Some of our favourites include Wentworth Falls, Blackheath, Yarramundi Reserve and Lawson. We even have a selection of pet friendly locations perfect for capturing your furry friends.
