How she works: Estelle begins with a friendly consultation to discuss location, styling and the shots you most want to capture. Shoots are paced around your children so there’s plenty of time for breaks, play and genuine interaction. After the session, she invites you back for a relaxed viewing appointment so you can see the finished images and choose the portraits or artwork that suit your home.
