“I keep going back for photos with Classico Portraits because they captures the silly, the awkward and the moments that make you smile. ”
— Naomi
Hi, I’m Kirstie
Photographer & big-hearted neighbour
I’ve spent 14+ years capturing playful, authentic moments for families and pets, creating portraits that feel as warm and alive as the memories themselves.
Giving back has always been important to me. Growing up, I saw my dad’s long-time involvement with Apex and my grandad’s decades as a Rotarian, quietly shaping their communities.
That spirit stays with me, and today, my husband and I are foster carers to children and young people through Berry Street.
Bringing that same community mindset into Classico Portraits, I’m excited to offer initiatives like this fundraiser, helping local clubs while giving families and pet-parents a meaningful, lasting experience.

We may require a small date-holding fee to avoid cancellations. This is held as a print credit, or refunded if you’re the first person ever not to love your images! (No questions asked)
-
Your $300 voucher credit is enough to purchase one image, though most clients choose additional images or artwork.
Many spend upwards of $1,000, and a few even create collections valued in the five figures!

Absolutely! You can gift your voucher to someone who would love to have beautiful portraits on their walls, or make an additional donation to give them their own voucher.
-
No need to worry — we keep sessions relaxed, fun, and flexible. There are no stiff poses or long sits, and dogs can stay on leash if needed (we can remove it in Photoshop).
We’ll play games, explore, cuddle, and create genuine happy moments you’ll want to remember.
The best images often come from spontaneous moments, laughter, and authentic connections.
-
Sessions can take place wherever is special to you — a beach, park, mountain, bush, at your home or holiday home. We’ll choose a location that suits everyone in the photos and your desired style.
-
Most sessions last 1–2 hours, but we can also plan all-day adventures — perfect for a boat trip, a hike, or simply giving everyone time to relax and feel natural.
For the best light, we usually shoot first thing in the morning or in the last two hours of the day.
Weekend sessions are available, though they tend to book quickly.
-
If bad weather is forecast for an outdoor session, we’ll reschedule at no extra cost.
Victoria’s weather can be unpredictable, so we usually wait until the day before to make the call — we’ll keep in touch to plan the best day for your shoot.
