es! Once you book, I make sure you have everything you need to feel prepared and relaxed. You will receive:

• Access to your Private Client Portal: This is where your Welcome Video and your "Meet Harriet" video for the kids are hosted. I recommend showing the kids their video a few times before I arrive so I’m a "friend coming over to play" rather than a stranger with a camera!
• The 'Getting to Know You' Questionnaire: I’ll send this over for you to fill out. This is your space to tell me all about your family’s unique rhythm. Is your child shy and needs a slow warm-up? Are they high-energy and loud? Are there any specific details I should know to make them feel safe and happy? I use this to tailor my approach to your specific "brood."
• The Ultimate Style Guide: I’ve taken the stress out of "what to wear." You’ll receive a guide with direct links to my Instagram Client Wardrobe page. There, you can see front, back, and side photos of my dresses, plus videos of the fabrics in motion and examples of real mums wearing them so you can see exactly how they fit and move.

I’ve made styling your session as effortless as possible.

1. The Client Wardrobe: You have full access to my curated Client Wardrobe, featuring timeless, neutral, and earthy-toned pieces. I’ve hand-picked these fabrics—think linens, knits, and soft cottons—because they photograph beautifully and add a gorgeous, high-end texture to your images.

2. See it in Action: I have a dedicated Instagram Wardrobe Page specifically for you to browse at your own pace. I know it’s helpful to see how a dress actually fits and moves, so on this page, you can see:

• 360-degree views (front, back, and side) of the pieces.
• Videos showing how the fabrics flow in natural light.
• Real-life examples of Mums wearing the collection during their sessions.

3. The Styling Guide: Along with my wardrobe, I’ll provide a styling guide to help coordinate the rest of the family. My philosophy is "cohesive, not matching"—we’ll focus on tones that complement each other and the environment, ensuring your photos look classic and intentional.

I take the care of my pieces—and your family—very seriously. Every item used in a session is professionally laundered using non-bio, skin-sensitive detergent before it goes back into the wardrobe, so it arrives to you fresh, clean, and ready to wear.

It depends on which "taster" you choose!

• Midweek AirBnB Minis: Yes! I know that mid-week life is busy and Mums often don't have the time to shop for the perfect outfit. For these sessions, you have access to a curated selection of the Juniper Client Wardrobe so you can just turn up, get changed, and feel beautiful.
• Seasonal Outdoor Minis: For these sessions, the wardrobe is not included. Because these are fast-paced outdoor events, I ask that you arrive dressed and ready to go. I will, however, send you a styling guide to help you choose colors that look stunning against our seasonal backdrop.
• Full Keepsake & Storyteller Sessions: You have unlimited access to the entire Client Wardrobe, including personalized styling advice and the ability to try on multiple pieces.

Dogs are very welcome at my outdoor sessions! As a fellow "puffy-fur-baby" mama, I love including your four-legged family members. However, there are a few important things to keep in mind to ensure the session runs smoothly:

• Advance Notice: Please let me know during the booking process if you’d like to bring your dog. This allows me to ensure our chosen location is pet-friendly and plan the flow of the shoot accordingly.
• Location Rules: Many of my scouted locations require dogs to be kept on a lead. If your dog needs to stay on a lead, don't worry—I can work around this!
• The "Tag Team" Method: I highly recommend bringing a friend or family member along to help mind the dog. This way, we can capture those "star moments" with your pet first, and then you can relax and focus on your family portraits while the dog is looked after nearby.
• No-Pet Sessions: Please note that pets are not permitted at my Midweek AirBnB Mini sessions.
• Dogs Only: To ensure the best results and the safety of everyone involved, I am only able to accommodate dogs at outdoor sessions.

For outdoor shoots, I keep a close eye on the clouds. If it looks like rain, we can look at an indoor alternative or reschedule. I usually make the final call the evening before. Mini Sessions always have a pre-set "Rainy Day" backup date which I ask you to keep free when booking.

Yes, I am fully insured.

Not at all! I’ve set up in all sorts of homes. All I need is a small clear area (about the size of a standard rug) in the room with the best natural light—usually your living room or kitchen. I bring everything else, from the posing beanbag and backdrops. You just provide the baby and the cuddles!

With large groups, life happens! If a key family member is unwell, we will work together to find a backup date that suits the whole clan. My goal is to get the whole family legacy captured, so I’m as flexible as possible when it comes to the unexpected.
