Frequently asked Questions

What happens on Photo Day?

About 1-2 weeks before the sessions you will be given an order form with package information and details on when your child will be photographed. Each Child will bring this form with them on photo day with their order and payment details filled out. Each child will have their individual portraits taken, a group photo and then we will photograph your child's play photos in their kinder environment.

What happens after Photo Day?

Online Galleries are ready to view with in approx 2 weeks after the last Photo Day at the centre. If families order digital files they are delivered immediately at this time.

Because most orders have already been made, our team are already working behind the scenes to get images printed and ready for kinder albums. You can expect a delivery of final images & products, ready for distribution to families within 6 weeks after the last Photo Day at your centre.

What do you offer for Kinder Children?

For Kinder photos, we have a lovely 5X7 inch Album which contains your child's formal portrait, up to 6-7 candid photos, a group photo and allows space at the back for additional photos from through the year or Graduation.

Do you offer Kinder Graduation Photos?

Yes!!! I love returning at the end of the year to see the children again to photograph them in their Graduation outfit with their certificates. There is also space left in the Kinder Album for a print from your Graduation session so that everything is kept in the one keepsake album.

Can I order extra copies of Kinder Album for Grandparents or family members?

Yes! You can absolutely order more than one copy of your album for grandparents or other family members. You can also view you images online and order individual prints or various sizes as gifts etc.

Can I order digital images, prints & products?

Yes! We love that families get to view their images via the online gallery where they can order a variety of products including Collages, canvas prints, framed wall art, digital images and of course regular prints. Layby options are also available if you are interested you will need to contact us.

You can also share your gallery link with family and friends so they can make their own order.

Can you post orders?

We prefer to deliver to the centre directly, but Yes we do post! Any order made through your online gallery has the option of collection from my Moe Studio, Delivery to your Centre or postage direct to you. This is handy for other family members who would like to order images and have them posted direct to them or if you have moved and would like to order.

What if my child is absent or sick on Photo Day?

If an order form has been completed and payment received, (or will be completed on the day) we will aim to reschedule them for another day and pop into the centre to photograph any missing children at a later time. If you are local to Gippsland, we hold regular studio daycare/kinder headshot days where you can pop in and get your child's headshot taken.

What is the cut off for ordering after Photo Day?

We like to have most order forms completed and returned on photo day. This enables us to provide a fast turn around of galleries and images. After Photo Day, you may order additional images or products at any time. Galleries stay active for one month after Photo Day and can be reactivated for ordering anytime in the 12 months following.

What are your payment options?
Payment envelopes are provided for photo day. Depending on agreed centre policy, cash, credit card or online payment options are available. Families have the option of layby plans on added purchases from their galleries. Our packages are very competitive, with the added bonus that clients can view their galleries online and upgrade their package or purchase additional images/digital/products.

What is the turn around time?

Photo Days can vary, and depending on numbers it can be Photo Week!

Online Galleries are ready to view approx 2 weeks after the last Photo Day at the centre. If families order digital files they are delivered immediately.

What should I dress my child in ?

It is important that your child feels comfortable on Photo Day. You don't have to dress your child in anything too fancy, just some nice clean clothes. Sometimes your Kinder will ask you to wear the Kinder Uniform for the group photos. If you wish to change for the individual play photos, you are more than welcome to but you need to ensure there is a separate plastic bag of clothes that is clearly labelled for photo day and that this is communicated to the staff at your centre.

Do you take Sibling Photos ?

Yes! Sometimes children are lucky enough to be in Kinder with a Sibling or other family member. Or their Kinder might be in a Daycare Centre where a sibling or other family member attends. If we are aware of your wish to have a sibling photo included in your child's Kinder Album, we will do our best to accommodate this on Photo Day.

What if my child does not want to be photographed or is shy ?

We take the time to get to know your little people! They all have different personalities, and love doing different things. It's important that I build a rapport with your child and let them take the lead with their photos and doing an activity they have chosen to do, or adding a little competition or even having the child photograph the photographer!! We have a few tricks that usually get the shots we need for their photo package.

What if I am not good with computers?

We provide an online gallery as it is the quickest way for you to see images. We also have paper order forms which you will receive inside your Kinder Album, so if you would like to order any additional products or digital images, you can contact us with an order at a later stage.

If you would like one of our team to contact you to assist you with online ordering, we are always happy to take your call!
