The Portrait Experience
How exciting!
You’ve made your decision …you’re going to do it! Yay! It’s the best decision you could have made, and you can be assured that we will look after you.
First things first, give us a call and we will book your first visit to our beautiful studio for a chat. Let’s get to know each other.
Your Dream Shoot Style & Design Consultation
We will invite you to the studio for a chat. It’s a chance for us to get to know each other and for you to take a studio tour. Your Dream Shoot Planner is our beautiful magazine full of photos and ideas to help you define your dream shoot style and get you thinking about your photo possibilities.


We will chat about what outfits to bring, colour combinations, neckline choices etc. Our Style Guide will help you to make clothing choices and give you tips on how to prepare for your special day. You are welcome to choose a beautiful gown from our collection, perhaps a tulle skirt, jewellery and some heels?
We tailor your photo shoot to you and your personality. This is an expression of you and who you are. Be sure to tell us if you have anything particular in mind.
Your Portrait Experience is all about you!
Professional Hair and Makeup
On arrival, you will be greeted and ushered into your private dressing room where you will hang your outfits. Our professional hairdresser and makeup artists will be in the Beauty Room waiting to pamper you. Our aim is to enhance your features and create the very best ‘you’.


Delicious Treats & Refreshments
Janiece loves to cook, so there will be some yummy homemade treats for you to enjoy.
Choose from hot and cold beverages, coffees and infusions.
You may even like to partake in a few bubbles.
Wardrobe & Styling Changes
We ask you to bring your favourite outfits with you. We also have a selection of lovely gowns for you to fall in love with and wear during your shoot. We can complement your look with a selection of lovely pieces of jewellery, flowers and scarves. For another idea, why not choose a corset and tulle skirt!


Fully Guided Photo Shoot
By the time we get you in front of the camera we will be old friends! It makes a difference having some time to get to know each other before the shoot. You will feel absolutely stunning, and this in itself gives you a great deal of confidence. Janiece makes you feel very comfortable. She laughs a lot, and you will too. You will be gently guided throughout the session to create the most beautiful images of you that you have ever seen!
Your Viewing & Ordering Session
This is almost the best part!
A couple of weeks after your portrait experience your images will be ready to be viewed in an exciting cinematic presentation. This is the time for you to make your image selections. We'll show you ways for you to enjoy and display your portraits at home. Payment plans are available *subject to approval.


Full Retouching
This is the magic wand part - a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Keeping in mind that we are creating beautiful portraits of you, we do just enough retouching to soften lines and skin, in our studio style, similar to what you see on our website and in our magazine and studio.
