What do I need to do for photo to be taken of my child?
Registration prior to photo days is essential. It grants us permission to photograph your child. Without registration, individual photos of your child will not be taken. Please note that a deposit fee might be necessary depending on your centre. If a deposit is required, it will be provided as credit towards purchasing a package after viewing the photos.
-
What if my child is absent on photo day?
We understand that sickness/unforeseeable circumstances occur. As we are at the centre for usually more than 1-2 days there may be an opportunity to come in whilst we are still at the centre. Please Contact Us to reschedule your child's photos during our time at your centre. If we have finished our photo sessions at your centre we may be able to come back on 1 occasion only (depending on availability) and an upfront fee is required (with credit towards purchases) for your child to be photographed in this instance.

Do you take Sibling photos?
Yes, absolutely ! we are deeply committed to preserving the unique and heartwarming connection that exists between siblings. We take great care to arrange dedicated photo sessions during the youngest child's designated photo day. Our aim is to capture the essence of their bond in timeless portraits that families will cherish for years to come, ensuring these precious moments are beautifully preserved for generations to enjoy.

What if my child does not want to be photographed/is shy?
At Little Wombat Portraits, we aim to provide ample time for each child to create a comfortable environment for them to warm up to us. While a smile may not always be immediate, we strive to capture memorable moments such as cute expressions or them engaged in activities they enjoy. For nursery/toddler age children, we make every effort to photograph them while they are awake during the morning session. If a child is asleep, we will return to photograph them at a later time in the morning slot of the session.

What should I dress my child in for photo day?
When capturing the best photos of your child, remember that it's not about fancy clothes, but about capturing the joy reflected in their beautiful face. To achieve this, avoid large logos, character printed clothing, or busy patterns. However, stripes, spots, or checks can be exceptions, as they are timeless, classic, and irresistibly cute. Stick to simple colours like denim and neutrals as a base, and feel free to introduce bright fun colours for a pop of excitement.
For added flair, consider layering and accessories to enhance the look. In winter, opt for a beanie or dresses over long sleeves with tights. In summer, a fun hat can add an extra touch of charm to the ensemble. Remember, the focus is always on capturing your child's natural essence and happiness in the moment.
