The Adelaide Family Portrait Project™
We’re photographing Adelaide families
as they are today.
We’d love yours to be one.
Throughout the year we're inviting a limited number of Adelaide families to participate as we
continue building The Adelaide Family Portrait Project.
A relaxed, guided session at our Parkside studio or a favourite Adelaide location, creating portraits
you’ll be glad your family stopped to make.
Why we’re doing this
Because this is your family, right now.
Almost every family says the same thing when they arrive: we've been meaning to do this for years. Life's busy and a portrait is always something for later, and later keeps moving. So here's your reason to do it now.
We've spent forty years photographing Adelaide families, some across three generations, children we photographed years ago now bringing in children of their own. From youngsters to grandparents (always young at heart), we've been there for the milestones and plenty of family weekends in between. It hasn't stopped being a privilege.
The Adelaide Family Portrait Project™ is how we're opening that up to more families. One unhurried session, and a portrait of the people you love most, exactly as you are today.
What you end up with isn't a photograph from a session. It's finished portrait artwork, hand-prepared in our Parkside studio, made to live on your wall for decades rather than seasons.
We'd love yours to be one of them.

How it works
You don't have to do a thing except be together. We guide all of it and keep it relaxed, so what we capture is you as you actually are - not a stiff, forced pose.
1.
The portrait session.
Relaxed and guided at our Parkside studio or a favourite Adelaide location. We do the directing; you simply enjoy being together.
2.
Your private viewing.
We show you the finished images and help you choose the portrait artwork you would love to enjoy in your home.
3.
Handcrafted artwork.
Every finished piece is prepared by hand in our Parkside studio and created to become part of your family’s home.
That's all there is to it.

Forty years photographing Adelaide families · thousands of families · three generations of returning clients · handcrafted in our Parkside studio
“It was a reminder of how beautiful your work is, and how you’ve become such an important part of our family growing up.”
““Some families have a family Doctor, our family has a family Photographer””
“There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo is that David captures.
I would never hesitate to recommend David to anyone who wants a TRUE professional to create a customised photography experience”
We’d love to hear about your family
Leave your details below and we'll personally read every application, then call you for a relaxed chat about your family and the sessions that might suit. There's no obligation, and nothing is decided until we've spoken.
Request a place below and we'll be in touch.
What Happens Next?
After you submit your application, we’ll review it personally.
If selected, we’ll contact you by phone and email to chat, answer questions and discuss available session times.
If it all sounds right and you’d love to have your family photographed, we’ll find a date and location to suit you. A small refundable booking fee is taken only if you choose to reserve a session, to confirm your time and photographer. This is refunded at your viewing appointment when you attend, or can be credited toward additional artwork you choose. See our booking policy for full details.
Your session is planned around your family, and after your private viewing you simply choose your favorites to create finished artwork you would love to enjoy in your home.
The Adelaide Family Portrait Project™ is an ongoing photographic record celebrating South Australian families and the relationships that shape them.
