FAQ

How do I make a booking?

How do you choose a location for a shoot?
Sessions can be held in your home or at another location of your choice. Every client is unique and Cheeky Monkey will work with you to determine what will be most suitable for your child/family.
What time should I schedule my session?
We want your child at their best, therefore, usually early mornings or after an afternoon nap are ideal. The golden hours are always in the early morning or near sunset. Cheeky Monkey will work around your child’s schedule to find the best time that works for you.
Why do you on-location shoots?
We believe that capturing your child as they play in their own natural surrounding is the best way to catch genuine emotions. Kids are encouraged to just be themselves, whether it is just playing in their room, running around at the backyard or park, splashing water in their favourite tub or even giggling and jumping on their parents’ bed. Cheeky Monkey will capture each child’s unique personality and can work with any location that provides a good amount of natural light.
What does the session fee include?
The session fee includes your photographer’s time and talent, as well as image processing, basic retouching, a CD with all your images and a 30 page 8” x 8” coffee table book.  Professional prints, gallery wrapped canvases and press printed cards are available for purchase.  Please contact us for details.
How long do you archive the digital negatives?
All ordered images will be archived for up to 1 years. And all unordered images from your session will be automatically purged after 6 weeks.
