Just a quick update that we still have a few vacancies for our mini session day held on the 20th September (next Monday!) at and around the studio. It will be school holidays too so if you have school or kinder aged children and havent had their portraits updated for a while now is the time to book in! Please contact the studio on 95681441 or studio@susandarcy.com.au to secure your time slot.
some recent images from a family photography session held at Abbotsford Convent.
I recently captured new images for the company Twinkle Lily . Twinkle Lily are makers of fitted cloth nappies, cloth menstrual pads, cloth breast pads and accessories. Please check out their website HERE. Support a 100% Australian owned and manufactured company.
The day of the shoot was a real blast! We had roughly 25 babies come through the studio that day to model for us. From newborn, to crawlers to walkers. Thank you again to all of our models who came to be photographed.
I’m often asked ‘How often should we have our family portraits done?’
It’s difficult to answer as it varies for the needs of each family. Some come every few months others once a year, others once every few years. It depends on needs and budget and how your family grows and changes.
Updating your family albums each year is a wonderful thing. Having a gorgeous series of images on your wall by the same photographer covering the years as your family grows can be just gorgeous and a real talking point for visitors and a wonderful keepsake for your children and family for years to come.
I love when customers come back again and again, not only is a huge compliment to myself and my business, but it is wonderful to watch their families grow and change.
Meet the ‘H’ family.
I first met Leah back in mid 2006 when she was pregnant with her first child.
I was then there to capture her first born, a son Max, in his first few weeks.
then in 2008 we captured some updated images of Max and the family.
In late 2008 mum was expecting again so I was called upon to capture them again.
Then in early 2009 i got to meet and photograph little Bailey. and with his big brother.
and recently we updated portraits of the boys.
Looking forward to our next session to see how much the boys have grown by then!
It’s been really difficult to select only a few from each group to share. Here are some more.

All sessions will be at the studio at 81 Poath Rd Murrumbeena 3163 (just down from Chadstone Shopping Centre), all will be a outdoor/location sessions (with one or two indoor shots also). All will involve a little walking (we’ll be doing a location shoot round the park, laneways and closest streets to the studio)

WHO CAN BE PHOTOGRAPHED DURING MINI SESSIONS: these mini sessions are available for children through adults from 5 MONTHS of age through to 99 YEARS or more. These mini sessions are not suitable for newborns or for maternity/pregnancy photography (unless it’s a pregnant mum ‘with’ her children). There are to be no more than 3 people included in each session and all must be of the same immediate family. If you have a larger family or would like more children photographed you are able to book 2 time slots one after the other at $50 per time slot.
WHY A MINI SESSION: mini sessions are great! They are perfect for past clients to do a ‘top up’ session and get some recent images of their children without the fuss of a full session. They are perfect for NEW clients to ‘try’ the service out and see if they’d like a full session at a later date. They are perfect for getting images of the children or yourself for FATHER’s DAY gifts. They are short and fast and fun.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SESSION: at the end of your session you will make an appointment to come back to view your images and make your selection. This will be approx 1-2 weeks after the session and both day and evening times will be available.
