Frequently Asked Questions — Sky Portraits Photography Studio Sydney

Common questions about Sky Portraits photography sessions, pricing, booking, and what to expect.

What is included in a Sky Portraits modeling/acting portfolio shoot?

Our standard portfolio sessions are crafted for aspiring models, actors, and influencers who are serious about creating agency ready work. Your session runs for 120 minutes and includes up to 3 outfit changes, multiple backgrounds and lighting setups, and professional guidance with posing and direction throughout to ensure you look confident and natural in every frame. A professional makeup artist is available at an additional fee. Around one week after your shoot, you will return to the studio for a cinematic big screen viewing session where you will see your images for the first time and personally select your favourite photographs.

What payment options do you offer?

We make booking easy with flexible payments: credit card, bank transfer, and payment plans/split payments are available on packages. A deposit secures your session date, and ensures the time is dedicated to you.

How many images will I receive?

The number of images you receive comes down to one simple thing, how many you fall in love with. During your cinematic big screen viewing session, you will choose the photographs that truly capture you at your best, and you are free to select as many as you desire. The more images you choose, the more value you unlock, with the price per image becoming increasingly attractive as your collection grows.

Do I need to bring my own outfits or makeup?

We recommend bringing 3 outfits that showcase your range (e.g., commercial casual, editorial/fashion, beauty/close-up looks). Neutral colors and fitted styles work best to highlight you. Makeup and hair are not included by default, but we can arrange a professional MUA/HMU for an additional fee — just let us know when booking.

How should I prepare for my shoot?

After booking, you will receive a style guide to help you prepare for your shoot. Bring your outfits steamed/hanging, plus any specific references (e.g., poses, moods, or inspo images). We'll guide you on posing, expressions, and angles to get the most natural, confident shots that agencies are looking for.

Can I do family, newborn, baby, couple, or other types of shoots with Sky Portraits?

For family, newborn, baby, or other portrait styles we previously offered, please enquire directly.

Do you provide posing guidance and direction?

Absolutely — our photographers specialize in directing first-time and experienced talent. We'll pose you, suggest expressions, and help you feel relaxed and confident to capture your best angles and personality.

Is the studio easy to access?

Yes! Our Sydney studio is centrally located in St Leonards, and has a comfortable, private space with amenities to make your session stress-free.
