The Jayasundera family booked a portrait session looking for a combination of classic studio portraits and natural outdoor photographs. As a photographer in Blacktown, I suggested a two-part experience: starting at my studio in Marsden Park and continuing later that afternoon at a nearby park.


The result was a family gallery filled with joy, warmth, and genuine connections. By combining the creativity of indoor backdrops with the natural beauty of outdoor settings, we were able to capture a variety of portraits in one photography experience.


Studio Family Portraits in Marsden Park


We began the session at my Marsden Park studio, located within the Blacktown area. With creative lighting and a selection of themed backdrops, the family enjoyed a comfortable setting where we could capture both beautifully posed portraits and playful moments.

The studio is ideal for families who prefer a relaxed indoor setting, greater control over styling, and a variety of backdrop options.

Their daughter brought plenty of energy into the studio, especially with her toy guitar, while their dog Rory joined in for a few fun photographs. These moments added personality to the gallery, alongside the timeless family portraits..

Outdoor Family Portraits at Nurragingy Reserve, Doonside


Later that day, we continued the session at Nurragingy Reserve in Doonside, a popular location for outdoor family photography in the Blacktown area. With its beautiful garden paths, lush greenery, and soft afternoon light, the reserve provided a lovely natural setting for relaxed family portraits.


Outdoor photography is ideal for families who enjoy natural light, open spaces, and candid moments captured in a relaxed setting.

The family wore coordinated red outfits, creating a beautiful contrast against the surrounding greenery. As we explored the park, I captured natural smiles, family interactions, and quiet moments that reflected their connection.

Combining Studio and Outdoor Family Photography in Blacktown


The Jayasundera family's portraits show how studio and outdoor photography can complement each other beautifully. The studio provided a comfortable setting for classic, carefully styled portraits, while the park offered natural light, open spaces, and opportunities to capture more candid family moments.


Combining both styles gives families greater variety in their photo galleries. You can enjoy the controlled lighting and creative backdrops of a studio session alongside the relaxed atmosphere of an outdoor photoshoot. These sessions can be arranged on the same day or separately, depending on your preferences.
