Your lucky giftee will enjoy a fun-filled 90 minute photoshoot with refreshments (e.g. coffee, bubbles).

They’ll then enjoy a cinematic viewing of their lovingly retouched images, where they’ll enjoy more refreshments.

Finally, they’ll have their favourite image transformed into a stunning artwork.

There is an opportunity to buy more artwork if they wish (digital images come in bundles and cost from $75 – $199 per file, and framed artwork starts from $395) but there is absolutely no obligation to buy more.

We are most famous for our family portraits – in fact, we’re the highest rated family photographer in Australia on Google, with over 2,000 5-star reviews.

As well as family photography, we also love capturing individuals and couples.

We offer sessions for all sorts of milestones – engagement, marriage, anniversary, maternity, graduation, birthday and more.

We send every guest a creative profile questionnaire, which will also inspire them for their session. Your gift recipient can also request a call with one of our stylists to get some great hints and tips for their session.

We don’t provide hair and makeup, but guests can choose to have this done before they come into the studio.

We recommend guests prepare as they would for a night out. We find we get the best images if they come looking like themselves.

Our talented photographers, retouch artists and studio lighting will ensure that all guests look their very best.

If you’d like to add a credit to the gift voucher (e.g. for any additional artwork your giftee may like), please get in touch with us to arrange this. If your giftee chooses to buy more artwork, they can do that too.

We have photographed all sorts of pets at Verve, and understand fur babies are part of the family too.

Our studios are designed to cater for families getting nice and cosy on beds and sofas. If guests feel their pet would be comfortable in this environment, they are more than welcome to bring them.

If guests would like to bring their pet/s, we ask that they please let us know beforehand so we can prepare the studio.

Every Verve Experience includes a cinematic viewing of images – this is often our guests’ favourite part of the whole package as they get to see how amazing their photos are in a relaxed setting with refreshments.

Each package includes a stunning framed artwork.

If guests choose to buy more artwork, we have a wide range of framed artwork starting as little as $395. Digital files are sold in bundles, and images cost from $75 – $199 each depending on which bundle they choose.

There is absolutely no obligation for your giftee to buy any additional artwork. If you’d like to include an additional credit towards more artwork with your gift voucher, please get in touch with us.

Our Origins

Verve Portraits was created in 2006, born from a quest to change the landscape of photography within Australia. We wanted to create an immersive experience for families as they stepped inside a Verve studio, making the “experience itself” just as memorable and valuable as the imagery we capture.

Our distinctive style of raw, relaxed and emotive photography ensures the imagery we capture is timeless and becomes more and more valuable as the years pass by.

The Verve Family

Created and run by the McErvale family, Verve Portraits is a very family-centric business. Our creative tribe are an extension of our family and we all share the same passion for documenting families in a truly unique way.
