When Was Your Last Family Portrait?
✨ Never had professional family portraits — or has it been more than 2 years? ✨
Our kids change so quickly — in just two years they’ve grown taller, lost teeth, started school, become teenagers, or welcomed a new sibling (or fur baby!). Life doesn’t slow down, and those little moments don’t come back.
That’s why, for a limited time, I’m offering families who have never had professional family portraits, or it’s been more than 2 years since your last ones:
✔️ A complimentary portrait session (normally $150)
✔️ A 10x7” matted print included (normally $225)
✔️ $100 print credit to put towards images for your home
No session fee, no hidden surprises. Just your family, beautifully photographed.
📅 Sessions must be booked and completed by 31st December 2026
There’s no minimum order and you don’t have to purchase anything beyond what’s included. If you do fall in love with more images, I’ll show you the full range of printed products and pricing at your planning appointment, so you know exactly what everything costs before your session.
❤️ Why It Matters
I can’t tell you how often I hear from families who say:
“We’ve been meaning to organise family portraits for years… but life just got in the way.”
The thing is, there’s always a reason to wait — busy schedules, work, sport, everyday chaos. But in the meantime, your kids keep growing, and those everyday moments become memories.
These aren’t just photos — they’re your family story, captured in this exact season of life. They’re the pictures your kids will grow up seeing on the walls, the ones you’ll flip through years from now and say: “Remember when…?”
And honestly? Your future self will thank you for making the time.
✨ How It Works (Simple 3-Step Process)

Fill out the short form — tell me when your last portraits were taken.
2. Book your pre-shoot planning appointment
We’ll meet at the studio to plan your session, talk through locations, answer your questions and go over all of the product options and pricing. There’s nothing you need to prepare beforehand.
3. Enjoy your portrait session
Relax, have fun, and let me capture your family just as you are right now.
Still thinking about it?
If family photos have been sitting in the “we really should organise that” category for a while, these sessions are simply a little nudge to finally get the ball rolling.
Sessions from this round need to be completed by 31 December 2026, so there’s plenty of time to find something that works around your family.

Hi! I’m Sam
I’m a family portrait photographer here in Launceston, and I believe family photos should feel natural, relaxed, and truly you.
I’ll probably spend half the session making silly faces to get your kids laughing, and if you bring your dog, I’ll be your new best friend. 🐾
My goal? To create portraits you’ll love seeing every day in your home — and that your kids will feel proud to be in.

The mother has long dark hair and is wearing a floral dress, the father has short dark hair and is wearing a black shirt, and their young son in a green sweater is standing between them with his arms around their shoulders. There is a stuffed animal and a plant visible on the couch and windowsill.]()
Sam has taken photos of our family consecutively for six years now – maternity to five year old and we will continue to have photos done with her every year. We have the most incredible pictures hanging on our wall that is the first thing people comment on as soon as they walk into our home. Sam is professional, warm and has always made us feel comfortable. She goes above and beyond to make sure that the pictures we got captured the essence of our family and were exactly what we wanted. There is something special about having amazing moments captured in time in a way that not many people have the gift to be able to do. It’s what keeps us coming back!

Absolutely adore all of our photos taken by Samantha! She’s been our family photographer for years and we wouldn’t go elsewhere! If you’re wanting photos that you won’t cringe at in 10 years time (ok be real, you’ll still cringe at your haircut!) then she’s the way to go! Edited to perfection and not over edited, you will have memories to fondly look back on for years to come!

Samantha creates the most beautiful photos. She is so lovely to work with and makes even the most awkward people (yes, including me) feel comfortable in front of the camera. She works to make everything personalized to your family which captures the most amazing memories. Sam is the photographer you need!

Sam has photographed our family twice now and will continue to be our first choice for years to come. Her ability to make everyone comfortable shows in her stunning photographs and we are so happy with all of our pictures. Sam’s genuine warmth and excitement makes her a hit with the youngest family members (even the wild child, we all have one) Do yourself a favour and book in now, you won’t regret it
