Extended Family Session - Melbourne Family Photographer

Is there anything better than a bunch of cousins in hysterics? Or the bond between the kidlets and their grandparents?

I believe these are some of life’s sweetest things, and that’s why I love doing extended family sessions - capturing the gorgeous connections between generations that make life so special. Some photographers shy away from this kind of gig, but I love to embrace the chaos!

These sessions are perfect for 50th wedding anniversary gifts, or special birthday milestones. Extended family means just that - your family + extended family members, like grandparents, cousins, aunties and uncles. I’ve done all sorts of these sessions and we can discuss how best to structure it for your family. Usually I include mini-sessions for each nuclear family, so that at the end of the session each family has images of just their family + all the cousins together + all the cousins with the grandparents + everyone together, etc etc.

  • Session time will depend on how many people/families are taking part

  • These sessions are best placed in an outdoor setting around sunset - a favourite place of yours, or I can recommend some locations

  • A session fee of $200 reserves your date and includes clothing and location advice via a detailed info guide - phone chats also welcome 😁

  • 1-2 weeks after our session I’ll send you a link to your private online gallery to view all the edited images, and there you can select one of three collections. Packages for fully edited digital downloads + bonus print credit start at an additional $600. The full price guide is available below.

  • You can check out testimonials from some of my gorgeous clients here.
