Family Sessions
Torquay, Geelong & the Surf Coast
Your family is changing every day. The little quirks, the belly laughs, the cuddles, the sandy feet after a beach adventure — these are the moments you'll want to remember long after your children have grown.
At Three Wishes Photography, I create relaxed family photography sessions across Torquay, Geelong and the Surf Coast that capture genuine connection rather than stiff poses. Whether we meet at your favourite beach, in the comfort of your home or at a location that means something to your family, the goal is simple: to create beautiful, natural images that feel like you.
Because years from now, these photos won't just show what your family looked like — they'll remind you exactly how this season of life felt.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What should we wear?
When you book your Family Session with Three Wishes Photography you will get information sent to you with some guidance in what to dress everyone in and what to avoid. I am always available to talk through your options with you before your session and help however I can. I have a client wardrobe available to the mum’s with my beautiful gowns if this is something they want to utilise
What if my children don't cooperate?
Oh my goodness please don’t worry about this! I have never met a kid I haven’t been able to win over. I make the sessions fun. We play games, we have tickles, I make silly jokes and I force nothing. I encourage you to play with your kids as you would at home and I capture you all exactly as you are. Because it’s fun, the kids are cooperating without even realising.
Do you recommend any locations?
Yes! While you are always more than welcome to choose a location of your own, especially if it is your place or somewhere that means something to you as a family, I have a location guide that will be emailed out to you prior to your session. The location guide includes information and photos about my favorite locations to photograph, giving the opportunity to pick somewhere that has been tried and tested many times and takes the pressure off you to come up with somewhere yourself.
What happens if it rains?
We reschedule. No questions asked, without a doubt. We want to avoid rain, and too much wind. The session will be reschedule for a date and time that works for all of us.
Can we bring our dog?
Please do! I have a furr baby and she is as much a part of our family as anyone else. If you want your pooch included in your session I am very happy to accomodate.
When is the best time of day?
Ok, so this is a tricky one. For outdoor on location sessions, the absolute best time of day to photograph is either the hour after sunrise, or the hour prior to sunset, with my absolute fave being sunset. In Winter, this is very user friendly, but over Summer it can make for a super late start time when you have little kids.
The reason? When the sun is low and close to the horizon it is far softer than at other times of the day. It is much more flattering, avoids harsh shadows and avoids squinting into the sun. Another plus? If you pick for the end of the day you are far more likely to get beautiful, golden sun in the background
This is not a hard and fast rule, it’s not essential and I can definitely be flexible, but I like to give families all the info they need to make an informed choice.
“Tamra is AMAZING! From first contact to receiving our photos.
We were all made to feel so comfortable during our shoot. Then I picked our photos up toady and WOW! The way they are presented is fantastic. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much!”
