Zac shoots all sessions personally
Zac shoots all the sessions personally and normally expects to shoot
each baby or child at least 3-5 times underwater in your 30 minute
session, and during each dip take between 2-5 shots. This gives you
approximately 10-25 shots during your 30 minute session.
Different shots you can choose from
Most people at first go for the simple ‘baby or child on own shot’,
so we try to capture this shot first. Then when this is done, we offer
other types of shots.
