FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY HOBART
FAMILY MEANS SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO EVERYONE
So let me capture what it means to you
Timeless, authentic connections
So, who are you and why are you here?
You’re sentimental at heart and your family is your world.
You want to capture genuine moments with those you matter most. The flaky skin of a newborn baby, the independence of a toddler who has just learned to walk, the dimples of a cheeky 6-year-old, or the awkwardness of a teenager coming into their own.
You know these moments aren’t always perfect, but they’re real and you’ll want to remember them in years to come.
You value the investment that is family photography in Hobart, because you see it for more than that.
You see photographs as priceless moments you can treasure forever when transformed into beautiful wall art – heirloom artwork that will be handed down to adorn many walls, for many generations to come.
Sentimental at heart
For me, photography is an opportunity to slow down and be present, and I really think it can be that for my clients as well. The aim is to create enjoyable sessions you’ll remember. My style is relaxed, and I prefer to capture candid, real moments of you and your family, rather than too many ‘posed’ shots (we will get a couple of those too, for the grandparents).
There is no need to worry too much about ‘creating the perfect shot’ or apologise if your kids or pets won’t sit still, let’s go with it and have some fun - life’s too short not to, right?
I know sometimes it’s not dad’s thing or maybe you don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera… but I promise to make the session as enjoyable and relaxed as possible. And don’t worry about the kids – they’ll be fine!
Whatever family means to you, I’d love to capture it! You’ll never regret investing in creating lasting memories with those you love most.

KIND WORDS

“I had a recent photo shoot with Meegan and I can't recommend her enough. I was nervous and she made me feel relaxed and comfortable. The location of the shoot was stunning and I've only seen a couple of photos so far, but they were brilliant. Better than what I could've hoped for. She's very understanding of how it feels to be pregnant eg. Having lots of breaks and aware of you feeling unsteady on your feet. She was very professional and punctual. Would definitely love to have another photo shoot with her!"

“My family has had professional photo shoots in the past, but our experience with Meegan was genuinely the first time we’ve looked at the photos and felt like we were looking at ourselves. My boys felt completely comfortable and free to be themselves, which I think shows in our photos! Meegan’s relaxed and easygoing nature makes you almost forget she’s there! I adore the photos she has taken for us; they will be cherished forever.”

"We absolutely loved our session with Meegan! The kids had fun playing while she captured us together at the beach. Our photos are a true reflection of us and I can’t wait to have them printed!"

"I am absolutely in love with all of the images captured by the lovely Meegan. The whole experience was effortless and Meegan made us feel so comfortable, even my hubby who wasn’t overly excited about having a ‘photo shoot’ enjoyed himself. They are truly better than I could have hoped for, thank you so much Meegan we will cherish them forever."

"Being gifted a Meegan Wilmot Photography voucher was the perfect encouragement (and excuse for the photo-loathing husband) to get some beautiful professional-quality images to display in our home and treasure for years to come. Meegan is so lovely and was accommodating through the whole process, and did such a wonderful job capturing our family’s personalities through a relaxed and enjoyable session at a fitting location! Thank you again Meegan xx"

"We booked Meegan for our maternity and newborn shoot. We are so very happy with our family photos that she captured! Meegan is a very skilled photographer and the quality of her work is exceptional. Meegan captured beautiful pictures of our family together and the whole experience was easy from the communication, the shoot, and the delivery of the photos! I would highly recommend Meegan for anyone wanting to capture some memorable family moments."

"Meegan is warm, calm and very professional. She was a dream to work with for my maternity shoot. She was also very patient and fantastic with my toddler, who, let’s face it, are not the easiest subjects. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to book a photographer who is very capable, and relaxed at the same time."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

A lot of my clients put off booking because they’re worried that their children will ‘misbehaving’ during our session. My response is always the same. Please don’t worry about it!
Kids are kids - they have thoughts and feelings of their own. Sometimes they have bad days, get a bit excited, show off or get overwhelmed. I’m not going to judge you or them and will be able to capture beautiful photos regardless.
I really believe a session should capture the essence of your family, as it is, right now. One day they won’t be so crazy and you’ll probably miss it, so wouldn’t be amazing if you had some beautiful photos to remember this time by?

We’re very lucky to have so many great locations to choose from here in Tassie! If you’re having an outdoor session, I have a number of favourite spots that vary in style and location. I work with you to select someone that resonates with you.
If you have a special spot in mind, I will always try to accommodate that and am happy to travel (additional travel expenses may apply).
If the session is to take place in your home, together we can select a couple of rooms that have nice large windows and plenty of natural light.
-
Outdoor sessions are typically held in the hour or so around sunrise or before sunset. During this time the light is softer, more flattering and has a golden glow - hence the name ‘golden hour’. Obviously, this time varies from season to season and over the Summer months this can mean an earlier or later start time.
Understandably, this may be challenging for some, especially those with little kiddos, however hopefully the option of either sunrise or sunset will suit your family’s schedule. Trust me, one late bedtime will definitely be worth it!
In home sessions are usually held mid-morning, but I will work around you and your schedule.
-
Once your booking is confirmed, you will be given access to the Client Section. Here you will find helpful information on how to prepare for your session and wardrobe / styling recommendations.
If you need a new outfit, but don’t necessarily want to buy something that you may not wear again? Mama Rentals is an amazing Australian outfit hire option for photoshoots.
I’m very proud to offer my clients a 15% discount for all women's gown from Mama Rentals!
Whether you choose to get your hair / make up done is completely up to you, however I do find that mumma’s who invest a little bit in themselves, tend to feel more confident in front of the camera.
It’s also a good excuse to find 45 minutes to escape and be pampered! Need some recommendations? I can help with that too!

Let’s face it, we live in Tassie and the weather can be unpredictable sometimes! In the case of severe weather conditions, we will reschedule your session to a mutually agreed time free of charge. If the forecast looks uncertain we’ll touch base leading up to the shoot and decide how to move forward. However, please keep an open mind, things can often change quickly and the weather definitely doesn’t need to be perfect to get some great shots.
If you’re sick, that’s a different story. It’s important to be responsible when it comes to minimising the spread of germs (any germs, not just COVID-19). If you or any member of your party is too sick to attend, please notify me as soon as is practical and we’ll reschedule - and I will do the same!

Agnes Sligh Turnbull once said, “A dog’s life is too short. Their only fault really”, and this is so true.
Fur babies are an important part of the family and should be included in your session if you wish!
Personally, our dogs mean the world to my partner and I, and we’re thankful to have beautiful photos to remember them by in years to come.
It would be an honour to capture the unique and special bond your family has with your dog!
