If you're here for really beautiful photographs of your children ...
A Truffle childhood session is all about photographs you'll want to print, frame and keep forever. I'll photograph your children in settings and light that bring out all their inquisitive, gentle and delighted expressions in stunning photographs that I just know you'll treasure.
These are photographs that will become part of your family's story, and you'll look back on them as your children grow. You'll appreciate these photographs straight away, every day, but they'll also fascinate your family well into the future. One day, you'll share them with your children's children and then your great-grandchildren, and you can be sure the similarities between you all - and perhaps the differences too - will be noticed.
That's the legacy this photo session will become, and it's something you'll never regret.
The Truffle Approach to Children's Photography
Truffle children's portrait sessions place the focus on the children — their personality, imagination, relationships with siblings and the unique stage of life they are living through.
My studio signature style is light, simple and natural, with a clean white backdrop and soft, airy lighting that keeps the focus exactly where it belongs — on your child. The colours of childhood are gorgeous in this setting, and these photos also look amazing in classic black and white prints. If you're a lover of black and white artwork, I'll be happy to include that edit for your artwork order at no extra cost.
A selection of coloured backdrops is also available for families looking for a different style.
Outdoor sessions bring a little more freedom and movement, allowing children to explore, play and simply be themselves in a natural setting. I'm a master at creating little activities that engage their interest along the way, so children absolutely love these sessions. The result is a collection of beautiful portraits that capture both personality and childhood as it is for them now.
A portrait with mum and dad – the people who matter most in their world – is a wonderful way to finish the session. The result is something that sits perfectly alongside family photography.

I use the word “beautiful” often, because it seems to me to be the best word to describe my style. I asked myself, what does that really mean?
Well, I started with what it’s not. It’s not harsh contrasts. It’s not stiff and forced.
What it is, is soft. Soft light. Techniques that bring out that dreamy, soft background. Soft moments. Soft environments. It’s also happy. Happy colours, happy expressions and happy moments. Quiet plays a part too. Pensive, thoughtful gazes that reveal a little more about the soul behind the face.
Ah, of course, beautiful is the children themselves. That’s what I see when I look through my camera lens. That’s what I aim to bring out in their photographs.
I think it's all of that, and I confess I'm proud of how often it brings out the same little gasp:
"Oh my gosh, that's beautiful!"
Beautiful in colour. Timeless in black and white.
“Thank you so much, Veronica! The session went even better than I expected. Harry can be quite shy and usually takes a little while to warm up to new people, but you had him engaged and smiling straight away. We all had so much fun, and the whole experience felt relaxed and effortless. We can’t wait to see the photos!” — Emma-Louise
The Photo Session
Children's portrait sessions are always play-based. During the session, we'll move through activities that are chosen to suit your child's age and interests, and are well paced to ensure they don't tire or become bored. The result is a photo session that your child will enjoy, and photographs that show them as they really are.
Childhood and Family Photography sessions are available in the Deagon studio or outdoors in Brisbane northside.
The session fee is $250, and covers everything you need to get started —
-
your pre-session planning and guidance
-
the photo session
-
your gallery reveal appointment where you'll choose your favourite photos
-
three digital pictures included

Printed artwork and additional digital images are available for purchase separately.
Choosing Your Photos
After your session, I'll curate an extensive gallery of the best photos from the session and carefully edit them so they are simply perfect. Ýour photographs will be ready for viewing at your gallery presentation appointment around two weeks after the photo session, and you'll see them on a high resolution screen so you can properly see and appreciate all the details.
Three digital photographs are already included in your session fee - start by choosing these from the ones you love most, and then, if you wish, you can purchase additional images. Just your favourites, a collection, or all of them, the choice is yours. You can purchase your additional photographs as printed artwork, high resolution digital files or a mix of both.
The Artwork Range
I work with some of Australia's leading professional print labs, so you can keep and display your photographs in a way to be proud of. The quality of your artwork ensures it will last a lifetime, so it will be enjoyed by your family's future generations as well.
You can choose from a range of selected printed products, including framed fine art, storyboards, canvas and acrylic wall art, along with table top pieces such as albums, acrylic blocks and matted prints in display cases. There's something for everyone, with prices starting from as little as $280. Many clients choose to spend around $1,500 for their wall art collections and keepsake pieces.
All printed artwork is supplied with matching digital files to share online or keep on your phone or computer.
High resolution digital images are also available for purchase.
