No way! Our photo sessions are for anyone and everyone - we can even include your pets!

This will depend on you.  During our preparation you can share your ideas and preferences and I will also send through a guide with recommended locations.  We will work together to choose the best location for your family.  

Some ideas of locations for your next Hong Kong family photography session

When you book your Hong Kong family photography session with me I provide an extensive preparation and style guide.  I wrote this with my clients in mind taking into account the various back drops we typically find around the city.  It is full of helpful style tips and covers patterns, colours, and accessories.  

While you put together your outfits I am always available to give you a second opinion.   Send me a quick photo of what you have put together and I can help advise.  

As always the best style advice I can give you is to always be yourself.   Wear something comfortable.  Now is not the time to flirt with a new style.  Save that for your next family brunch! 

Hong Kong offers something no other city can - an incredible blend of East meets West that creates the most dynamic backdrops for family photography. One moment we're capturing your family against the iconic skyline from the Star Ferry, the next we're documenting genuine moments as your kids discover traditional dim sum at a local tea house.

The city's energy becomes part of your family's story. The bustling street markets, the stunning harbour views, the mix of ultra-modern architecture with traditional temples - it all creates a visual narrative that's uniquely Hong Kong. Plus, the compact nature of the city means we can capture multiple 'looks' in one session, from urban sophistication to local culture.

My street photography background means I know how to work with Hong Kong's unique lighting - from the dramatic shadows between skyscrapers to the golden hour reflections off the harbour. Your family photos won't look like they could have been taken anywhere else - they'll be distinctly, beautifully Hong Kong.

Having been a professional nanny for over 15 years before becoming a photographer, I've got this covered! Here's my tried-and-true approach:

Before the session:

• Talk about it as a 'Hong Kong adventure' rather than a 'photo shoot'
• Show them photos of where we're going - kids love knowing what to expect
• Let them help choose one special outfit 
• Plan the session around their best time of day (usually mornings for little ones)

Day of the session:

• Bring snacks and water - exploring Hong Kong works up an appetite
• Let them bring one small comfort item or toy
• Dress comfortably - we'll be walking and exploring

My secret weapon: I turn the session into a game! We might hunt for red taxis, count different types of boats in the harbour, or find the best dumpling shop. When kids are engaged and having fun, the authentic smiles happen naturally.

For teenagers: I treat them like the young adults they are. We chat about their interests, maybe incorporate a location they love, and I give them space to be themselves. Often the best teen photos happen when they forget I'm even there!

Hong Kong's subtropical climate gives us gorgeous photography opportunities year-round, but each season offers something special:

October to December (Peak Season): Perfect weather with mild temperatures (18-26°C) and low humidity. Clear skies create stunning harbour views and comfortable conditions for longer sessions. This is when everyone looks their freshest!

January to March: Cooler temperatures (15-23°C) mean cozy family moments and beautiful soft light. Great for longer exploration sessions.

April to May: Spring blooms and warm weather return. Ideal for families who want to capture Hong Kong's greener side in parks and gardens.

June to September: While it's warmer and more humid, this season offers dramatic skies and fewer tourists at iconic locations. Early morning or late afternoon sessions work beautifully, and the city's energy is at its peak.

During typhoon season (May-November), I always have backup locations ready - Hong Kong's incredible architecture means we're never without stunning options! The key is planning flexible timing and having a photographer who knows the city's weather patterns.

I understand that HK$4,200 is a meaningful investment for families, and I want to make professional family photography accessible. Here are your payment options:

Standard booking: 50% deposit (HK$2,100) secures your session date, with the remaining HK$2,100 due on your session date.

Extended payment plan: For families who need more flexibility, I offer a 3-month plan:

• HK$1,400 deposit to book your session
• HK$1,400 one month after booking
• HK$1,400 final payment on your session date

Family package discounts: If you're booking multiple sessions (perhaps annual family photos), we can discuss custom payment arrangements.

Gift certificates: Many grandparents love gifting family photo sessions! Gift certificates can be purchased in installments and don't expire for 12 months.

Hong Kong weather can be unpredictable, but rain doesn't mean cancelled photos! As a street photographer, I've learned to work with all of Hong Kong's weather moods.

Light rain or drizzle: Often creates the most magical, moody photos! Hong Kong's neon lights reflect beautifully on wet streets, and covered walkways provide gorgeous natural lighting. Some of my favourite family photos have been taken during light rain.

Heavy rain or typhoon warnings: Safety comes first, so we'll reschedule at no additional cost. I monitor weather forecasts closely and will reach out 24-48 hours before your session if we need to adjust.

Rescheduling policy: Weather rescheduling is always complimentary and we'll find a new date within 30 days. Your deposit secures your session regardless of weather delays.

Pro tip: Hong Kong's 'umbrella weather' often creates some of the most authentic, cozy family moments. Don't be afraid of a little moisture - it might just give us your most treasured photos!

Let's start by saying I am NOT the right photography for everyone! I believe that family photography should be a fun, easy experience. You won't see me forcing my clients into awkward poses or making them do stiff, unnatural things. This only leads to a gallery full of the same posed images that lack real personality. Instead, I want to capture real connection—the kind of joy that comes from being yourself and being surrounded by people who love you for exactly who you are.

This leads to the most authentic moments, not posed ones. The best sessions are when you forget I'm there and just have fun together as a family. In this way I capture your families joy in the most natural way.
