TRADITIONAL style Class Photos (if chosen to do - for Kindergarten classes only – Important Information - UPDATE FEB 2026
PLEASE NOTE : If families choose not to register for individual photos, they can still purchase the traditional class photo ( for kindergarten groups ONLY) later if they wish. If only composite class photos are being done for your centre - ONLY children that are registered are included on the composite style.
Due to updated privacy recommendations across kindy/childcare settings, any child not registered for photos must still have written permission to be included in a Traditional style class photo.
You have three options:
Option 1 – Permission Form for Unregistered Children (only applicable to Kindergarten age groups).
I will provide a permission form (closer to photo day) for the centre to distribute and collect signatures from families who do not wish to register but wish their child to be included in the class photo (This is for traditional style photos only).
A small preview (no names) can then be shown in private galleries for registered parents
No class photo will be produced /printed until all permissions for children in the photo are received.
Option 2 – No Online Private gallery Preview of Traditional class photo (only applicable to Kindergarten age groups).
No class photo preview will be shown in private online photo galleries.
Families will be informed at registration of this
Parents should be aware that first names (recommended) will appear on the final class photo.
(Please note: some parents may request previews, which will be declined as directed by the centre.)
Option 3 – No Class Photos offered at all.
Only individual photos of registered children are taken.
Due to increasing privacy considerations, many centres now choose to remove class photos altogether and offer individual, permission-based photography only. photography only.

Frequently Asked Questions regarding our CHILDCARE/ ELC Photography service
DO FAMILIES PAY UPFRONT ?
Families are required to register online and pay a small deposit of $35 for photos to be taken of their child. Families then choose their photo package after viewing their child’s photo gallery and receive a $35 credit towards their package spend. We ask that you look over our price guide to ascertain if our pricing will suit your centre families. Our prices are competitive with the added bonus that we give your families the luxury of a choice of images and not just 1 preselected photo. We cater for ALL budgets from 1 photo packages, multiple or All photos.
DOES THE CENTRE NEED TO HANDLE ANY CASH OR ORDERS ?
No, All Ordering is done through our secure online gallery and cart. We handle all that for you.
WHERE DO YOU TAKE THE PHOTOS ? We photograph in the outdoor area of your centre OR an option for backdrop portraits if that is preferred. This aids in creating the photos you see on the website with natural light. We choose areas that have some shade to produce this result. In wet weather we will either move to an area undercover or discuss the suitability of postponement. This is extremely rare in our beautiful Queensland climate !
WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME? The sessions generally take from 2-3 days for centres up to 130 enrolled children - longer for larger childcare centres. Photo galleries are then ready to view approximately 5-7 working days after the last session at the centre. There is then a 10 day ordering period for printed photo packages. If families order digital files they are delivered immediately.
DO YOU HAVE INSURANCE ? Yes. We have public liability insurance. Proof of insurance coverage available on request.
DO YOU HAVE A WORKING WITH CHILDREN CARD ? YES, Trina and her team all have a current Working With Children Blue cards.
DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH CLASS PHOTOS ?
For Childcare centres - for ages up to 3 year olds we recommend a composite style class photo (best individual photo of each child on one print. We can discuss with you the suitability to do a traditional class photo for the oldest class group only. PLEASE NOTE: for composite style class photo - ONLY children that have registered for photos to be taken will appear on the class photo.
WHAT IF CHILDREN ARE ABSENT/SICK ?
We will reschedule them for another day whilst we are attending the centre if they are pre-registered.

Schedule permitting we may be able to arrange a return to the centre to photograph absent children. Generally though - we process a refund if a child is absent on photo day.
DO YOU SUPPLY PROMOTIONAL MATERIAL - FLYERS/POSTERS ?
YES, 1 month prior to photo sessions we make contact to ask for class lists so we can prepare unique flyers for every child. We also supply posters to hang at the centre. Emails are sent to families to ask them to collect their flyer and pre-register for their child’s photos to be taken.
