Welcome to our studio
Our studio in Cockatoo Valley is designed to feel like an in home session —minus the overflowing laundry basket and the half-drunk coffee you keep microwaving.
✔ Soft natural light, neutral tones
✔ A space where you don’t have to worry about anything except just being with your people & pets.
Say hello to our outdoor location
LIMITED AVAILABILITY - CONTACT US TO ENQUIRE
Tucked away in Williamstown, our private outdoor location is pure magic—rolling fields, twisted olive trees, and a 130+ year-old cottage that holds stories of its own.
✔ Open, natural, and effortlessly beautiful (think golden light, fresh air, and space for little adventurers to roam).
Spots to our outdoor sessions are very limited and seasonal, please get in touch early to book.
Why would you book Fable and Fig?
These photos matter. And to get good ones, you need more than just someone with a camera. You need someone who:
✔ Knows how to make it easy, even if you usually hate having your photo taken.
✔ Gets that kids have approximately zero interest in sitting still—and works with that, not against it.
✔ Knows how to find the magic in the in-between moments—the way your little one leans into you when they’re feeling shy, the way your partner looks at you when you’re not paying attention.
✔ Understands that real life is a little bit messy, a little bit chaotic, and a whole lot beautiful.
And that my friend, is us. We have photographed over 1500 families of all dynamics and neurotypes, so we've got this down to an art!
What you need to know..
How do I book in?
Super easy, fill out the form below and we will send you a link to book in a date!
How long are your sessions?
Our sessions go for 60-90 minutes depending on how many people you have!
Extended families if very large can go for 2 hours.
These cost $95 to book in + the cost of one of our packages.
When should I book?
Studio sessions: Book as soon as you know you'd like photos done and we can usually fit you in between 1-3 months notice!
Outdoor sessions: Book as far as possible in advance because sometimes we can be fully booked up to 9 months in advance.
How does the process work?
Send us an enquiry form and we will reply with a link to book in.
Book in a date & pay the $95. You sign your contract with us and we will be in touch before your booked date to check in and confirm everything
You show up for your session, and we guide you through the whole thing. We have a super simple process and are with you the entire way.
After your session, you book in a time to receive your photos via email. We email you the gallery of photos on this date, so you can purchase one of the packages off our price list and get your photos / prints
What should we wear?
Wear whatever feels like "you".. Don't get caught up in what you see online of everyone else!
BUT if you'd like some inspiration you can look at our instagram plus we also have a style guide that you can have a look at too with some inspiration.
We find that warm, earthy tones work well and so do neutrals, beiges and browns!
What if my kids don't behave?
Spoiler alert: they probably won’t. Photoshoots can be really fun and exciting for some or really daunting and a bit scary for others. And that’s completely fine. I don’t expect them to sit still or “behave” in a certain way because that’s not real life (especially with little ones). Instead, I roll with whatever energy they bring. We will play games and I’ll guide the session in a way that makes them comfortable and brings out those real, natural moments. Lots of prompting usually gets them to come around
What if we aren't photogenic?
Literally everyone says this, and I promise—it isn't your job to be photogenic. You don’t need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. I’ll guide you through the whole session with easy, natural prompts that feel more like hanging out than taking photos.
Do you reschedule for bad weather?
For outdoor sessions, yes we have a weather policy. If it's too windy, too hot or raining we can either reschedule or move your session to the studio. We will make a call on this usually on the morning of the session or sometimes even the day before.
Can I bring my pet?
YES. Always yes. Dogs and your pets are family too, and I love capturing the chaos they bring. Just let me know in advance so we can plan for it!
We don't have limitations on what pets you can bring. We've had dogs, cats, birds and even a pony in the studio! Nothing is off limits!
Can grandparents be involved?
Absolutely! If they’re a big part of your family’s story, they should be in the photos too. Just let me know who’s coming so we can plan accordingly.
If you are wanting an extended family session with more than just grandparents, these are an additional $200, invoiced after booking and paying the $95 and there is a minimum PACKAGE THREE purchase requirement on these due to the amount of time and photos you get!
I want a custom location, will you do this?
Yes, we often travel for sessions however these custom locations may incur travel charges and also have a minimum spend requirement of package #3 which has to be paid in full a week prior to the session.
Let your kids personality shine through..
I’m a mum of all neurodivergent kids, so trust me when I say—your kids are welcome here, exactly as they are.
They can run, jump, spin in circles, climb on things (yes, even me), and I will absolutely play chasey with them if that’s what gets the best photos.
Because the best photos aren’t the ones where they sit still and smile on cue. They’re the ones where they’re free —to be wild, to be shy, to be cheeky, to be them.
So if you’re worried about them being “too much” or “not cooperating” for photos—don’t be. I want the chaos. I expect all kids to have different personalities and I know how to turn it into the kind of photos you’ll look back on and feel all over again.
What it's like to work with us
Our sessions are play-based, prompted and not necessarily posed and pressure-free. Think of it as a fun outing, hanging out while we just happen to take photos of it. I'll boss you all around - and we will let the kids think they're taking the lead.
You don’t have to worry about anything. Just show up, love on your people, and let us handle the rest.

Meet your photographer
Hey, I'm Jade
✔ I get it—being in front of the camera can feel awkward. That’s why my job isn’t just taking photos; it’s making sure you actually enjoy the experience. I give clear direction, plenty of encouragement, and make the whole thing feel effortless.
✔ I’m a mum of three neurodivergent kiddies (and I am too!). So if your kids are full of energy, need breaks, or just don’t want to sit still—no stress. I work with them, not against them, to capture their real personalities.
✔ I create a relaxed, judgment-free space. Whether you’re running on two hours of sleep with a newborn, wrangling wild toddlers, or showing up for branding photos for the first time —I’ve got you.
✔ You don’t need to know how to pose. I’ll guide you every step of the way, from where to stand to what to do with your hands. Most people walk in nervous and leave saying, "That was actually fun!"
✔ I capture the real stuff. The tiny newborn details, the way your kids look at you, the confidence in your brand—photos that aren’t just beautiful but mean something.
✔ When you feel comfortable, the photos are better. And making you feel comfortable? That’s what I do best.
