Whether you prefer to use Afterpay or a credit card, you can easily purchase your chosen package directly through our website. This ensures a smooth, hassle-free process that lets you focus on the exciting journey ahead.
Pre-Consultation Communication
If you have any questions or need guidance before making a booking, we’re more than happy to help. We’re readily available to communicate with clients through a variety of channels, including direct messages on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook, as well as via email, video calls, or phone calls. We’re here to provide the information you need and to make the booking process as easy as possible.
Consultation Call and Planning
Once you’ve chosen your package, we’ll schedule a consultation call to discuss the details of your photoshoot. This is a great opportunity for us to understand your vision and expectations, and for you to ask any questions you might have. If applicable, we can also help organize mood boards to visualize the concept of the shoot, arrange for styling and makeup services, or assist with location hire.
Pre-Shoot Walkthrough
Before the big day, we’ll walk you through the entire photoshoot process. This helps to ensure that you know what to expect and can feel relaxed and confident when the day arrives. We’ll discuss everything from the flow of the shoot to specific poses or shots you’d like to include.
Proof Gallery and Final Delivery
After the shoot, we’ll send you a link to a private online proof gallery where you can view all the images from the session. You can take your time to select your favourite photos, which we will then professionally edit according to the package you’ve chosen. Once the editing process is complete, we’ll upload the final, high-resolution images to the online gallery. You’ll be able to access and download your beautifully edited photos directly from the gallery, at your convenience.
Communication is key in any service, and photography is no exception. We’ve heard the stories of photographers who don’t communicate effectively, leading to misunderstandings and disappointment. That’s not how we do things at Shared Moments Photography. From the moment you book a photoshoot with us, we make sure to understand your needs, your expectations, and your vision. We keep you informed about every aspect of the process, from scheduling and pricing to the creative direction of the shoot.

Always Prompt Delivery: From Proofs to Final Images
At Shared Moments Photography, we understand that the anticipation of seeing your photos can be just as intense as the photoshoot itself. That’s why we’ve streamlined our process to ensure a swift turnaround time, from the moment the shutter clicks to when the final, edited images land in your hands. Our commitment to prompt delivery is a cornerstone of our service, and we’ve designed our process to keep you informed and excited at every stage.
Sending Out Proofs
The first step in our delivery process is sending out proofs. Proofs are the initial, unedited versions of the photos taken during your shoot. We understand that you’re eager to see the results, and we share that excitement. That’s why we strive to provide you with these proofs as quickly as possible.
Our online proofing gallery makes this process even more convenient. Once the proofs are ready, we upload them to a secure, private gallery that you can access from the comfort of your home. This allows you to review the images at your own pace and share them with family and friends, no matter where they are.
Fast Turnaround on Basic Colour Correction and Editing
Once you’ve selected your favourite images from the proofs, the next stage is basic colour correction and editing. This is where our professional photographers enhance the images, adjusting elements like exposure, contrast, and colour balance to bring out the best in each photo.
We understand that waiting for edited photos can sometimes feel like an eternity. That’s why we’ve honed our skills and optimized our workflow to provide a fast turnaround on this crucial stage. Our team works diligently to ensure that each image is enhanced to its full potential and ready for your review promptly.
Optional Extreme Editing
While our basic colour correction and editing process is designed to bring out the natural beauty in each photo, we understand that some clients may want additional enhancements. Whether it’s removing distracting elements from the background, smoothing skin textures, or adding artistic effects, our team is capable of a wide range of advanced editing techniques.
This extreme editing option is available upon request and is tailored to your specific needs and vision. We’ll work closely with you to understand your preferences and apply our expertise to create stunning, personalized images. While this process requires additional time, we’re committed to maintaining our prompt delivery promise. We’ll provide a clear timeline for this advanced editing process, ensuring you know when to expect your final images.
There’s nothing more frustrating than waiting for photos that never arrive, so we commit to prompt delivery extends beyond simply handing over the photos. It’s about providing a seamless, enjoyable experience from start to finish. It’s about respecting your time and matching your excitement at every stage of the process. And most importantly, it’s about delivering beautifully edited photos that capture your special moments, ready for you to cherish and share. With Shared Moments Photography, you’re not just getting a professional photoshoot – you’re getting a professional service that values your time and satisfaction.
