Question 6

➕ How long does the photo session take?

Accepted Answer

You are guaranteed at least 10mins per session however sometimes a session may last a little longer

Question 7

➕ What should we wear?

Accepted Answer

This is intended as a casual fun day.  There will be a box of silly hats, reindeer antlers etc. if you want to wear them.  However what you wear is really up to your imagination.  We have had families that wore Christmas jumpers, others who had bespoke T-shirts and a variety of stuff.  The photos are taken under a tree so we recommend not wearing sun glasses for the actual photo so your eyes can be seen.  However hair clips etc. may be useful to tame fly away hair.

Accepted Answer

The cost is $85 per session and from all the photos taken you will receive by email 6 professionally edited photos

Question 9

➕ What if I have a huge group and want a lot of combinations of photos?

Accepted Answer

If you have a group / family of more than 6 people and you want to have a number of mix and match pictures taken, then we suggest you book two back to back sessions

Question 10

➕ Wet Weather Policy?

Accepted Answer

Luckily as the photos are taken under a tree, photo sessions will continue if there is only a light sprinkling of rain.  However in the event that the photo sessions have to be cancelled, these will be rescheduled.  If the organisers know in advance that a particular day is going to be a washout then you will be contacted and sessions if possible rescheduled

Question 11

➕ Cancellation and Refund policy?

Accepted Answer

Your confirmation email will contain a link to cancel or reschedule your session time.  However due to the nature of the booking, cancellation and/or rescheduling with less than 24 hours notice is not permitted. A strict NO REFUND policy applies if you have a session booked and fail to attend.
