Every face is special because it is in our faces, where our stories lie.

A life is made up on endless magical moments, and we should be capturing as many of them as we can. We should make sure we include beautiful legacy images, as well as the countless snapshots we take along the way, in the photo album that is our life.

I truly believe that we all deserve to put ourselves in the frame and I have always wanted the portrait experience to be accessible to everybody, affordable, enjoyable and easy which is why one of my main offerings is my Mini Portrait Studio Sessions. All details can be found below.

I also offer a “Portraits on the Go” option in the studio and am happy to discuss “On-location” shoots. Details below. Please pop in and see me at the store and studio or phone or email if you would like to discuss options.

I look forward to celebrating you,

with love, Lara

My Notes from Photography by Lara Flanagan

Put yourself in the frame and celebrate who you are right now.

There are three ways of working with me - please don’t hesitate to look at my website or chat with me for more information!

“Portaits on the go”

Perfect for that spur of the moment, I feel like making a portrait with Lara feeling! Shop hours only, current studio set up only.

Portraits on the go will result in a small gallery of images (approximately 5) delivered in both colour and black and white.

Allow a few minutes / no bookings required / $75.00

“Mini Portrait Studio Sessions”

These sessions are all about providing an enjoyable stress-free studio portrait experience at an affordable budget point.

Your Mini Portrait Studio Session should result in a beautiful gallery of images (at least 20) delivered in both colour and black and white.

Non-shop hours. One studio set up only.

Allow 15 minutes / bookings required / $150.00

From the 25th November to the 19th December, I am doing a limited number of Christmas Mini Portrait Studio Sessions. Same details as above with a Christmas setting. These can be booked via this link.

“On-location”

I am happy to discuss all options! A lovely idea is to add an on-location element to your Mini Portrait Studio Session.

At-home portraits, branding images, family portraits etc.

Non-shop hours only. Pre-shoot meeting encouraged.

From 30 minutes / bookings required / from $300
