Gold Coast QLD Baby Photographer | Choosing props for your photo session

Isn’t it so exciting when you book a photoshoot! There is so much creative freedom you get when you book in with Dreamy Moon Photography. From a huge variety of outfits to select from our client closet. To backdrops, accessories and of course props. 

You get to completely tailor your photoshoot experience with the guidance and expertise of our team. So what to consider when you do get the chance to choose your props. Of course we will guide you along the process but here is a list of tips to help you also decide. 

South Gold Coast Newborn Photographer | Props, accessories and more!

Choosing your props

  1. Theme, are you going minimal, rustic, boho, lots of decor, different colours etc. 
  2. What type of session are you doing. Some props are more appropriate for newborns whilst others are more appropriate for older toddlers. Your photographer will give great suggestions! 
  3. How big is your little one, stream lining off the previous point… it’s important to discuss the size of your little one with your photographer as the will really narrow down the best prop fit. 

Alternatively if choosing your favourite prop is a little overwhelming you can always leave the creative reigns up to your photographer. But it is also nice to have some in put too. 

We are constantly updating our prop selection at Dreamy Moon Photography. When you book in you will be sent a guide where you can select your favourite props, outfits and accessories!

Robina QLD Newborn Photographer | Why your should meet with your photographer after the session

Robina QLD Newborn Photographer | Why your should meet with your photographer after the session

Have you…

Have you ever had a photoshoot with a photograph that you met on the day, did a quick photoshoot. Got your image download link and then nothing…. You never really hear from them again. Maybe you see some of their work pop up but it’s just a person in passing.  

Sometimes this can be referred to as shoot and burn photography. It’s quick fast paced but doesn’t work on building relationships or strong rapport. As a luxury tailored experience, photographer. We do not want you feeling that way if you work with Dreamy Moon Photography. 

Here are some of the reason we believe you should meet your photographer more than once! 

Firstly, it’s so important to develop a trusting relationship with your photographer. This will help you feel 100x more relaxed during your shoot. If you have young children, this will also help them be less timid with a stranger. 

Not only will you and your children feel more comfortable but you will also have more reassurance and trust in your photographers creative expertise, the way they run their studio and confidence in the final outcome. 

When you invest into your photographer, to help create amazing family heirlooms you need an element of trust. 

At Dreamy Moon, we do not want to be strangers! We love meeting new families and creating everlasting relationships and connections. So many of our clients love and benefit from having a close rapport with our team. They know that if anything comes up we are a text or a phone call away. And nothing is awkward about it at all. 

Meeting up with your photographer after your session allows them to deliver to exceptional standards! One of our favourite things to do with our clients after their product deliver is to drop off a little pressie either at their work or home. This just allows our clients to know how much we appreciate and value them.

Mermaid QLD Newborn Photography | Tips to prepare for your Maternity Session

Congratulations mama, you’ve made it this far in your pregnancy. Surviving the first trimester sickness, second trimester glow and now you are in the final crunch of the third trimester. The home stretch! And it’s time to celebrate, with a beautiful maternity photoshoot to capture and preserved these everlasting memories of your pregnancy. 

In today blog I am going to share with you all the tips and tricks that we tell our maternity clients at Dreamy Moon Photography to best prepare for their maternity shoot. 

Tips and Tricks

  1. Book your photographer early 2-3 months is a great amount of time. This will ensure that you get to be photographed by your dream photographer who may book out quickly! Your photographer should be very accommodating if you need to reschedule or cancel if anything arises. 
  2. Plan out with your photographer exactly what vibe you’re going for. Is it studio or outdoor photography? Neutrals or lots of colours… Do you want solo shots or with your partner and other children. This will ensure that you get the best outcome of the day. 
  3. If you’re photographer doesn’t provide a client closet. Put together some outfits and show your photographer to get a professional opinion. At Dreamy Moon Photography we have a range of maternity outfits and a dress guide if you would like to put your own outfit together. 
  4. Mama this is the time for you! Get pampered, we suggest getting your hair and makeup professionally done which we can provide in our studio. This will just take any pressure off you. It will allow you to truely relax and enjoy your shoot. I know that pregnancy can make you feel a little bit your self and we want you to feel as beautiful as possible! 
  5. And last but certainly not least! Have fun, relax and enjoy the shoot. Trust your photographer they will only capture the best angles and really make you feel like a star on the day. You’re creating beautiful moments and soon enough you will meet your baby. 

If you have any tips to share, we would love to hear them in the comment section down below!

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | Why your Photographer won’t give you raws

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | Why your Photographer won’t give you raws

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | Why your Photographer won’t give you raws

Disclaimer: Every baby, child and person is beautiful before & after editing. Editing is used as a tool for artistic enhancement.

Let’s talk about raw files!

I know this is something that is super controversial in both the photographer and client world. But I wanted to use today’s blog to educate you on the reasons why most photographers will not actually give you the raw files

Firstly let’s talk about what a raw file actually is. So a raw file isn’t just the unedited version of the picture but is actually a huge file of unprocessed and processed data. It’s uncompressed data that is used in an external program such as lightroom or photoshop. Which is used to process an image to its fullest potential. 

With that in mind you need a program to even open a raw file. Sending and receiving raw files requires a huge amount of space which most people don’t have unless they work in photography or digital media etc. 

Most photographers won’t send through raw images for both of the reasons above however there are a few more reasons why they won’t either. A raw files is not a true representation of the photographers work. Photography is an art and a raw file is an unfinished canvas. It’s the bare minimum. 

It’s like being sold an unfinished product. 

As a fellow photographer. We want your experience with photography to be a completed process. For you to receive quality artwork at the end. For your experience to be ingrained in the final products. 

So please don’t get offended when your photographer won’t give you the raw image as you’re hiring them to create art for you and an enjoyable experience. 

Hopefully this blog gives you a little bit of insight as why most togs avoid giving out raw images.

We all had so much fun creating everlasting memories of Christmas 2022. The children were so excited once they saw the warm lights, aspen Christmas trees and all the festive decorations!

Each family came in for their mini session, where we spent 10-15 minutes capturing all the joys and laughter. Ages ranged from 3 months old to 8 years old and of course some of the parents jumped ion for photos too. We had bubbles and Christmas music playing and at the end the kiddos received a special Dreamy Moon Photography gift bag. Their faces lit up when the saw the little pressie.

Currumbin QLD baby photographer | Tips to creating an easy photoshoot with toddlers

It can be overwhelming for everyone when it comes to the day of family photos. Especially for toddlers and young children. But here at Dreamy Moon Photography, our aim is to create the smoothest experience for you and your family. So here are a few of our favourite tips and ticks to creating an easy photoshoot! Currumbin QLD baby photographer | Tips to creating an easy photoshoot with toddlers.

Tips

  1. The best thing you can start with is gently preparing and building up excitement for your toddler. Explain to them that you’re going to get pictures taken. Let them play with a toy camera or a real old one if you have that on hand. Get them involved! This will help build up anticipation and excitement and give your toddler an element of control and security.
  2. We suggest planing something fun to do after the shoot, for example getting an ice cream. This helps those young children who don’t really want to participate have something to look forward to, because let’s face it. Everybody loves ice cream (we recommend the cream at donut time in Burleigh)!
  3. Now we definitely have a few studio tricks up our sleeve and that is setting up a fun bubbly atmosphere. Here at Dreamy Moon we love playing your Child’s favourite music. Getting the bubbles out and even our little squeaky to that seems to make all the kiddos laugh!
  4. Finally our biggest tip is to stay calm and surrender to the outcome. Children are their own individual autonomous beings. Sometimes truely and autheicallyl capturing the moment makes for the best photos to cherish and look back on! We love a good candid picture over here, something that documents the phase of life that you’re in.

I hope that these tips help you not to stress too much about getting the perfect shot! We love making things easier on your end. And will do everything we can to support that.

The best part

Ahhh! Where to begin, where to begin… Can I just sum up this blog and say the whole thing. 😂

Just kidding. Of course we will get into the nitty gritty!

 There are so many avenues I can go with this but let’s start off with the most important! 

There is nothing, and I mean nothing! More special than creating timeless memories for people to cherish. And without getting to cumbersome, those memories that I’ve captured are especially special when there is significance behind them. Such as a family member passing, rainbow baby, capturing love! A new baby even! 

Those meaningful relationships

When it’s time to choose the images with our clients and they’re balling their eyes out from love and joy, that! Is a feeling that I just can’t explain. 

It’s so much more than snapping pictures, it’s building meaningful relationships with people. Being apart of their life story and adding genuine meaning to them! 

Photography is so much more than the art, it’s the service and that is something really special. 

I’m am so honoured and blessed to be in this industry and create connections. Walk along side families and capture heirloom art pieces to be handed down for generations to come!
