Why my Photo Sessions are 90 Minutes Long | Brisbane Family Photography

My standard package is a 90 minute portraiture session - be it for families, newborns, maternity photos or couples. For some families it’s, 'do I really need the whole 90 minutes?' (and sometimes what this really means is, I don’t think my toddler will last that long!) and for others, it’s wondering if 90-minutes will be too rushed. Here's why I offer 90-minute sessions as standard. Why my Sessions are 90-Minutes Just like you, I don’t want to feel rushed. This is an investment that you've made in capturing your family and 90-minutes is a generous amount of time to do just that. It gives us ti ..read more

Maybe you had newborn photos. Maybe you skipped it. Even if all the photos you have are the ones you stumble across on your iPhone, you’ll definitely be noticing the cliché of ‘they grow up so fast!’ Your once tiny baby is now laughing at the world and starting to explore. Of course I love photographing all of the babies but six-month- olds are pretty precious and it’s a popular time amongst parents to want to capture. What Makes Six-Month Old Sessions The.Best? One of the dad's I was talking to about his baby said it best: she's just so sparkly now. At around six month's old, babies start to ..read more

Let's keep it real. You've just had (or are about to have!) a baby. There are a million things to think about in the chaos and preparing clothes for a newborn photoshoot shouldn't have to be the thing occupying your attention. Here's some advice to make it quick and easy. Go For Light, Neutral Colours and Patterns You probably already know that I advocate for having your newborn sessions at home to avoid the chaos of having to get everyone ready, in the car and to a park with a newborn in tow. Generally in your home, there'll be less bright light than if we were outside. This gives a lovely m ..read more

A Celebration of Breastfeeding | Brisbane Newborn Photographer
Kelsie Waller Photography Blog

Breastfeeding is something different for everyone. Some mums aren’t interested in documenting this thing that they’re having such a hard time with. Some mums feel uncomfortable being photographed while breastfeeding. All of that is absolutely, totally valid. But this letter isn’t for them. This letter for those people with a tiny nagging feeling that they’d love to celebrate these brief, fleeting moments with their baby. Or maybe it’s not a nagging feeling - maybe you've been thinking about it forever and you are absolutely ready. This is not to say that your breastfeeding journey has to hav ..read more

Why I Don’t Pose Newborns | Brisbane Newborn Photographer
Kelsie Waller Photography Blog
by kelsiewaller
1y ago
One thing you’ll notice about my portfolio and my style in general is that it’s intimate and raw. There’s not too much smiling at the camera or stiff poses. For me, by keeping our photoshoots relaxed and organic, we get to capture the real you and authentic moments that really mean something to your family - long after the photoshoot is over. The same is true for newborn photoshoots with me. I believe babies are perfect exactly the way they are. They don’t need headbands or flower crowns to make them so. For me, too many outfits or props actually distract from the magic of tiny fingers and to ..read more

Brisbane City Botanic Gardens Family Session It looked like we might have to reschedule our photoshoot in the Botanic Gardens but fortunately, the rain held out and we even got a little sunshine at sunset (and little did we know of the rainy deluge that would hit Brisbane in the following weeks and how lucky we truly got). We even got some sunflowers in bloom! When I asked Virginia and David what they most wanted to capture during our session, what they loved about being parents, it was Ava’s cheeky smile and her laugh. And oh my was Ava an independent spirit – wanting to chase the ibis in th ..read more

What to Expect for Your Outdoor Family Photoshoot | Brisbane Family Photographer
Kelsie Waller Photography Blog

Here's a little peak into what an outdoor family lifestyle photoshoot looks like with me, from start to finish. How it Starts For all my clients, I reach out with a questionnaire asking about your vision for the photoshoot, how you want your photos to feel and with that, if you have any ideas for where you’d like to have your photoshoot. Having your photoshoot in a location that’s really meaningful for you can add something extra to your photos. But even if you don’t have a place like that, maybe you’re a beach person. Or a bush person. Or maybe you’ve just seen photos in the long grass that y ..read more
