WHY PRINT WITH ME
I am a custom newborn and family portrait photographer and
I believe an image is not an image until its printed...
Therefor I have sourced the best Photographer's Pro-lab in Australia to do my image prints, wall art and albums to ensure that you get the best coloured image and quality in products. This also mean that I edit my images to their printing calibration standards. When you print your images at another lab it might just not look and print the same as I would with my Pro-lab.... so best is to invest in a quality product and you will know that you will get a perfect-coloured print!
So, when you decide to invest in my service... we custom design your images so we can create the perfect wall art prints and albums for your home to celebrate YOUR family with prints that will last...
Not sure yet...here another reason...
WHY SELECT ME AS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

No problem! I have loads of experience with kids...
apart from my own kids, I have work with many families!
Fist there is always a plan...I work around them...we focus on their needs first!
We are patient... but at the same time we work fast as their concentration only last about 30 min!
We do fun...And we get the good images!
It might be an easy session or it might not... but in the end there is nothing more I would like to do than capture what you love... so you can treasure those fast-changing little faces and moments forever!

Coase yes, it can be perfect always...so let say sometimes there is that little one that just won't play along as it is not their day today... no worries...because I am so determined to get good images of your family to treasure for always... so if I feel that today is just not their day, I will reschedule the session at no additional cost to you!

PRODUCT QUALITY
For CANVAS wall art my prolab printers use high quality colour inks imported from the United States. They offer an excellent colour gamut (range of colours) and resistance to fading. They have been independently tested by the Wilhelm Institute to last up to 75 years before noticeable fading.
They use a beautiful canvas sourced from the United States. It is an archival, acid-free matte canvas. It is smooth, bright white and offers excellent reproduction for wall art. Their canvas showcases exceptionally dense black and colours, is water resistant and is used by thousands of artists around the world.
It is significantly heavier than the canvas being used by many of our competitors. Lighter grade canvases are generally cheaper to make, but are usually of lesser quality.
I also offer an unconditional guarantee on the canvas prints!
In the event that you accidentally damage your print (i.e., scratch, tear, drop) then an identical print will be remade for you at absolutely no cost to you (excluding freight).
For ACRYLIC wall art prints they sandwiches the photograph between two pieces of Plexiglas and has a choice of three hanging attachments (that are not visible from the front). They expect it to have a 30+ year lifespan.
For WOOD wall art print they take a beautiful photographic print and mount it onto a 20mm raw dark-edged timber panel (strong enough to resist moisture and humidity). They finish off the Wood Print with a matte optically clear laminate for extra protection and a beautifully soft finish.
The print comes with a clever routed groove on the back to allow easy wall hanging.
For COTTON prints they offer museum-quality paper that are made in the United States and carry
UK Fine Art Trade Guild Certification
Standard paper is made using crushed wood pulp. This results in a product that is not archival
due to the impurities in the pulp.
Fine art paper is normally much thicker and is made from archival cotton rag.
This results in a product that will last 75-100 years.
ALBUM QUALITY
Each album is hand made from thick pages printed on high quality smooth fine art paper.
Album pages are printed on 235gsm archival art papers imported from the United States (using genuine Canon pigment inks).
We use an archival 200gsm white card between the pages to make them thicker and more durable (each page ends up approximately 635gsm).
To create the block, they use a specialized adhesive that we have used for decades and know stands the test of time.
Many low-cost albums use PVA glue or other cheap adhesives that risk delaminating in the long term.
