Pop-in™ Options

A Pop-in™ event is not the same as a traditional photography experience, we offer the smallest possible bite of professional photography and book as many poppets as we can fit into the same day to keep our prices ridiculously low - so everyone gets a little bit of something valuable for as little money as possible.

To keep our events running efficiently, our portraits are always taken in the exact same way, and we offer special events with fewer bookings available for trickier shoots like sibling specials and family portraits.

So, what is a Pop-in™?

Monthly Pop-ins

Our flagship Monthly Pop-ins are the world's best, most affordable and most adorable way to capture your little one changing and growing month by month.

Choose a timeslot below, and simply come along at any time during that hour. You may need to wait a few minutes for your child’s turn in the chair, as up to 25 other kids are booked in the same slot. Each child takes only moments to shoot (POP!), but if yours needs a little more time to settle in, no worries, just ask to wait a little longer and try again.

Monthly Pop-ins are perfect for bubbas and children of all ages, from day dot to biggy-wiggys, and there are no rules saying you have to start from month one, or stop at 12 months to build an awesome collection. We have lots of poppets who are toddlers or bigger and many who still Pop-in every month at 3 or 4… we even have some regular poppers who are coming up for their 10th birthdays. Pop-ins are an addiction that's hard to shake!

While it’s all about your little superstar at the studio, the Gallery is your time to shine! Your photo options will be delivered within days of the shoot, and you get to choose your favourite, most adorable photos. Can’t choose just one? What a great problem to have — easily ‘Unlock’ your top picks, with payment by card or Photo Credits (check out the bundles for a bargain).

Monthly Pop-ins are for individual portraits of children only, if you need a shot of your kids together, keep an eye out for our Sibling Specials in the school holidays, and check out our Specials page to find out about our Family shoots and more!
