They’re packing their bags, ready to take on the world — but before they go, capture the person they are right now.

Our “Leaving Home” Portrait Sessions celebrate this special milestone — the end of school, the start of independence, and the final moments before they take flight.

These photographs become a timeless reminder of who they were before the next adventure begins — confident, hopeful, and full of promise.

Each session is relaxed and natural, designed to capture authentic expressions and real connection — whether in the family home, the backyard, or a favourite local spot.

Because before they go, you’ll want to remember this chapter — forever.

Session includes:

  • A relaxed portrait session

  • Private online gallery for viewing and selection

  • One framed and matted art print (print size 10 x 8 inch)

  • Beautiful archival prints and wall art available

  • Session can include family members

  • A consultant for your selection of photographs

Perfect for: parents wanting to preserve the moment before their child leaves for university, travels, or begins their next stage in life.

Book your “Leaving Home” session today — before the suitcases are packed and the room is empty.
