It's Finally Here ( New Website Alert! )

Phew!  Remind me to never do that again :/

While officially a new site has been in the works now for almost a year
- fact finding, gathering feedback, asking questions of Directors and parents,
the hard nuts and bolts of building it all together had to happen in the
no-work month of January. 

It's so exciting to finally be live!

But a new site isnt just pretty pictures and this is just a facade for some pretty
powerful stuff going on in the background.  Resulting from feedback and questions
asked and answers heard, from parents, carers, educators and directors, the
real change is behind the scenes and makes the whole user-experience ridiculously
simple.  Pre-testing came back with a whole lot of YAYs, so im super-pumped for the
new kinder season to be underway.

So what's changed in 2019?
Well, lots of things, and not all of them website related.

- Easier Ordering
- Better packages
- New products
- NEW albums!  Personalised with your kinder and the Year on the cover for
   those building a collection!  Yay!
- Faster service
- New designs for group images, more sizes, more choice

We're looking forward to being of service :)

End of Year Shenanigans: Melbourne Kinder and Daycare Photography

It's that time of year again, when everything starts to speed up NOW!

Yikes!


Considering I just finished my last kinder last week and it normally takes 2 weeks to edit and deliver 100 galleries, then 2 weeks for parents to choose and get their orders in and 2 weeks again to deliver ..

Umm .. 4 weeks until Christmas everybody!
I have 200 little faces I will be working hard on to get out to you in record speed, but you'll need to do your bit to help me help you also.

I'll be editing all those beautiful faces in a week or so of no rest, no sleep.

Then you can order them all in the next week after that, and i'll deliver them the week after.



What do you say?  Is it a deal?
Can we share the load and pull the sleigh together?

I hope so.
Little Big Adventures kinder photographs are more than just kindy pics .. they are are collection of images of your children at work and play, but also beautiful private-session quality images suitable for gifting, framing and display.

We even have an array for frames available for last minute gifts.

Let's Do This Together.

Cheers,
Leanne

Little Big Adventures on Social Media

Social Media is a great way to keep abreast of things you need to know, or to look at pretty images to inspire and delight, perhaps a media article .. or even a reminder/update!

Smart phones mean we can catch up while inhaling the chlorine at swimming lessons, or while waiting for that dental appointment, so we'd like to travel along with you.

Little Big Adventures is a little old-school, less hipster .. we've never quite got the hang of instagram ( although we're trying! ), but we're long-time bloggers, tweeters and facebookers, so that's where you'll find us at the moment.

Our facebook page went live this week with a rush of friends and clients logging in to say hi and stay updated.  This is the place for quick words, sneak peeks ( where permitted ) and little snippets of life.
It's probably our favourite place and if it's your thing, facebook will be the place most updated :)

Twitter is quicker!  It's the place for hurricane updates, traffic reports and hot reminders.
Well, that sounds a bit boring, so maybe not .. I like to keep up-to-date on all things Melbourne and things to do for kids via twitter, and pass on anything good that I find ...

The Blog!  You're already here - hurrah!  This is where I like to use my words and talk about bigger things, muse and let my mind wander.  Also a place for pictures, of course ( of course! ).


So a place for everything, and everything in it's place.
Instagram and tweeting for when i'm out and about via the i-phone, and facebook and the blog for more considered "big computer" work.

Let's see how we go!  :)

Little Big Adventures

A cute kinder dance sequence from 2015

OOh, I like the name, what's all this about then?

Thanks!

Little Big Adventures is a derivative offshoot of Leanne Bertram Photography.
"Little Big" is not only the initials of the principal photogapher ( aka: that would be me ), but is also a nod to the Little Big characters I get to meet on a daily basis, and the Adventures we have together as we take some beautiful images and make kinder memories.

To paraphrase Shakespeare: "and though they be but little, they are fierce"

Yes, never mess with a pre-schooler.  The knock me out of the playground with their self-assured personalities, ideas and ability to do all the things at once, now.  They can tell you about the fate of the Orangutans, or why cutting trumps pasting anyday.  They love to talk about their families, and pets, and will share their honest opinion about anything that comes to mind.

Based in Bentleigh, Bayside Melbourne, Leanne has been working within the local community for over a decade now.  Taking images and headshots for small business, and images to treasure forever for families and children, she loves the local connection and small town feel of bumping into clients in the street, or at the school where her own children attend.  For the past 4years she's been working further afield in kinders, daycares and preschool centres, and this year, in 2016, it's time to regroup and stay closer to home.

By keeping the playing field local, Leanne's services cannot be surpassed.  She's hands-on and can tailor services around your kinder's needs, and nothing is ever too much trouble.  Leanne brings with her a great team of photographers, editors, and office staff, all with relevant police checks and amazing skill sets, and she ensures no child is left behind.

That's our promise to you.
With a smile.

We look forward to seeing you soon x

Cheers,
Leanne
