Love Notes
Reviews for Janelle Keys Photography
“Absolutely in love with our photos! I love seeing the wall art prints hanging in my hallway. It means a great deal that our kids have these memories. These photos will be hung in my home until I hand them down to my kids when I am mighty old and they put me in a nursing home! I don't plan on moving them until that happens. When they move out of home, they will be greeted by these pictures on the wall in the hallway when they come back to visit.”

“I enjoyed how relaxed it was considering I had a newborn who was being a little fussy. You were able to entertain my older son without my husband and I having to worry. I didn’t feel rushed when my baby needed a feed and you still managed to get some amazing shots. I couldn’t be happier with our new photos! Love love love them!”
Jade, Penrith NSW
“I'm not sure you realise how very special it is what you do! Sure, anyone can take a photo but it takes skill, compassion & a little humour to be able to put people at ease in front of the camera, something most of us feel very uncomfortable doing. My photos with you reduced me to tears, happy tears. These photos are now heirlooms that will be treasured forever more.”

Janelle was able to answer all questions and concerns we had. She understood exactly what it was that we wanted and gave excellent advice. She really showed how experienced and knowledgeable she is and just made us feel comfortable. After our conversation there was no doubt that it was Janelle that we wanted to work with and we have no regrets. At every stage Janelle’s communication was excellent and we were always kept in the loop and never had to chase her up for anything.
We really enjoyed how comfortable Janelle made the kids feel and the way she was able to bring out their individual personalities and capture them in the images she took.
Happy is an understatement! The photos came out so much better than I ever could have imagined. We just love how they capture us as a family, who we truly are and not something we’re not.
The quality of the finished products are fantastic. The pieces that Janelle recommended go perfectly in our home and suit it so well.
It means the world to me especially, to have these photos, as this is something that I have always wanted to do. To have these photos to look back on once the kids get older is everything. It just shows us a family.

“Thank you again for all the gorgeous photos you’ve taken of us over the years, they mean so much to us and bring huge smiles to our faces!! The girls were so excited watching us hang the framed prints and keep running in to look at them and talk about them. I love that they love them!!”
Lisa, Vincentia NSW
I was worried that the kids may not cooperate (that has been our experience when we try taking photos of them ourselves!) But, it was lovely to see the kids cooperate - you have great tricks on hand and a lovely manner which helped us feel at ease immediately. We loved that the session was fun and it was great to see the kids just run around and play, and pick flowers.
These photo are so precious - taken just before they started pre-school and kindy this year, it really is a nice way to mark such a major milestone. And the finished artwork is perfect - the pastel colours in our clothes and natural background suit the house perfectly. Light, bright and beautiful!

“The session was so easy, natural and FUN! I love that my 2yr old had fun. I love that I can look at the photos and have fond memories of the day. It was so relaxing and as a mum with a newborn, I never felt awkward or rushed. We had such a lovely and easy morning. We LOVE our photos - they exceeded our expectations! We are SO happy with them, they capture our family and kids so beautifully.”
Laura, Richmond NSW
“Janelle was calm & reassuring. She didn’t rush us & just allowed us to be ourselves. We were very happy with the level of customer service - loved the tips prior to the session. They were very helpful. And we are thrilled with the photos! It reminds us to find the fun in every moment. Our favourite photo is one of the family shots because we are all enjoying each other and are very relaxed. Our album is gorgeous! Great quality and something that will be enjoyed for a long long time.”
Sarah, Penrith NSW
“We are so loving the photos! Our particular favourites are the ones you took when we were skimming stones, because of the amazing light, the beautiful trees and stony river bed and the fact that this particular spot reminds us of favourite childhood places. It’s a lovely convergence of old and new memories and just the sort of images I hoped we would get. One of my friends said we were lucky to have these images and we also feel that way. So thanks once again. (By the way Alexander also loves the easel display system. He is now the one that changes the photos over each day and laughs with delight at each new image.)”
