It was a pleasant experience at OhDear studio with Melody. Even though my son had a meltdown and wasn’t cooperative, Melody still managed to capture nice shots of him. Overall, the pictures are natural and professional. It is a good mix of different backdrops, poses and styles. My family definitely had a splendid time at the studio and will certainly look forward to our next shoot!

Adelle Toh Family of 4

It was great meeting Melody after 9 years! She was the photographer for our family photoshoot when my kids were 2 year old and I decided to engaged her service once again. Melody is energetic, professional and instantly put us at ease during the photoshoot. My children had a fun experience! Not to mention the captivating pictures which will serve as great memories 🙂

Sharon GohMother of 11-year-old twins

My kids enjoyed every minute of the photo shoot because Melody was excellent at getting our whole family to feel comfortable and have a good time! She coaxed smiles and giggles out of our three kids so that the resulting photos looked candid and natural and captured their personalities beautifully. She also obliged me when I asked for some couple shots of just my husband and me. Oh Dear Studio is the place to book if you’re looking for a professional family photographer who is responsive, warm and great at capturing flattering, memorable shots quickly (another great thing about Melody is that she works really fast as she understands that kids can get restless after a while!).

Jenny Tai Mother of three

It’s been years since we did a photoshoot and decided on a whim with Oh Dear Studio, partly because of its beautiful shophouse set up. We were so glad we did. Melody was engaging and energetic, despite the session being in the late afternoon the kids enjoyed every moment and we had a wonderful time altogether. We are very pleased with the photos and would recommend Melody’s photography to anyone wishing to have family photos professional taken. Thank you!c

The Seah FamilyFamily of 4

Melody is an amazing photographer to work with. The photoshoot details were worked out and confirmed very quickly and efficiently in an exchange of messages and her email setting the confirmation details was sent out promptly with helpful tips on outfits. I was pretty worried about the kids cooperating as they usually hate taking photographs, but Melody worked her magic with them and got smiles consistently out of them throughout the hour plus shoot we had. My family loved the light filled studio and the props such as the rocking horse kept the kids occupied as well. The end products were lovely and will be treasured memories for a long time to come. Thanks Melody!

Ashley KohMother of 3

We did a family studio photoshoot at Oh Dear Studio. Melody is a wonderfully talented photographer and was very patient with my three kids (6, 8 and 10). She guided us throughout the shoot and made us feel very much at ease. She has a beautiful studio with different settings. So we were able to take more interesting photos than what you would get from a typical studio shoot. We were extremely happy with the outcome and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to do a family photoshoot.

Frequently Asked Questions About Family Photoshoots in Singapore

Why hire a professional photographer for family photos?

Hiring Oh Dear Studio guarantees exceptional quality and a stress-free photoshoot experience. Our all-female team possesses the expertise to perfectly light and compose your family portraits, capturing genuine emotions often missed in everyday snapshots. We will guide you throughout the session to ensure everyone looks their best and feels comfortable, delivering stunning, timeless images that reflect your family’s unique charm.

Does Oh Dear Studio provide home family portrait photoshoot?

Yes, we do! While our chic conservation shophouse is a beloved spot for a family studio photoshoot, we understand that sometimes the comfort of your own home offers a unique, personal backdrop. For multi-generational or other special family photoshoots, we can arrange to capture your beautiful family memories right in your living space, making the experience even more intimate and convenient for you.

What’s best to wear for a family photoshoot?

For your family photoshoot, we recommend choosing comfortable outfits that showcase your family’s personality. Coordinated colours in soft, neutral tones like creams, pastels, or earthy shades often look fantastic and create a harmonious feel in your family portraits. We also suggest avoiding overly busy patterns or bright, clashing colours.

How long does a family photoshoot session by Oh Dear Studio take?

The duration of your family photoshoot session at Oh Dear Studio depends on your chosen package. Our Lite option offers a delightful 30-minute studio session, perfect for capturing quick, beautiful moments. For a more relaxed and extensive experience, our Premium option provides a full 1-hour session, allowing for more variety in poses and settings to truly create a comprehensive family portrait.

How much is a 1-hour photoshoot in Singapore by Oh Dear Studio?

A 1-hour family photoshoot for up to 4 people with Oh Dear Studio is S$780 nett. If your family is more than 4, you can add more members to the session for S$30 per person.

Where are the best spots in Singapore for an outdoor family photoshoot?

Singapore truly offers a stunning array of backdrops for your outdoor family photoshoot! Our photographers often recommend popular and picturesque locations such as the lush Singapore Botanic Gardens, the whimsical Gardens by the Bay, the serene Sentosa Tanjong Beach, or the historic Fort Canning Park. Each of these incredible locations offers a unique backdrop, ensuring we find the perfect setting to complement your family’s one-of-a-kind personality, whether you prefer lush greenery, urban chic, or sandy shores.

What time of day offers the best lighting for a family photoshoot in Singapore?

This depends on your location. For outdoor family photoshoots, the “golden hour”, which is typically early mornings or late afternoons or about an hour or two before sunset, offers the most magical, soft, and flattering natural light. For sessions at our family portrait studio, our signature French-style full glass windows ensure beautiful, ample natural sunlight throughout the day, creating that warm, airy, and timeless feel for your family portraits. With that, please take note that our first session is at 10AM, and the last session is at 4PM.

Can I choose the location for my family photoshoot in Singapore?

Absolutely! We want your family photoshoot session to be perfectly tailored to you. If you opt for an outdoor session, you can choose your preferred location from our recommended spots or suggest another meaningful place. For our family studio photoshoot, you’ll enjoy the charming ambience of our unique shophouse in the middle of Blair Plain.

Can Oh Dear Studio work with specific themes or creative ideas for a family photoshoot in Singapore?

We love bringing your unique vision to life! At Oh Dear Studio, we pride ourselves on crafting personalised experiences. If you have specific themes, props, or creative ideas in mind for your family photoshoot, we encourage you to share them during our consultation. Our friendly, all-female team will gladly work with you to incorporate your wonderful ideas into your bespoke family photo session, making it truly yours.

How much does a family photoshoot cost in Singapore?

Oh Dear Studio offers two packages. The Lite session is $480 nett for 30 minutes with up to 4 people, for approximately 40 or more retouched digital images. The Premium session is $780 nett for 1 hour with up to 4 people, for approximately 80 or more images. Additional family members beyond 4 are $30 per person.

Is the session private?

Yes. During your session, only your photographer is in the studio; no other clients, assistants or staff are in the room. Your family can completely relax and be yourselves.

How do you photograph toddlers and camera-shy children?

We slow down and let children come to us. Rather than directing, we use play-based prompts so children forget the camera is there. Our all-female team of mothers has photographed hundreds of toddlers and camera-shy children, and knows how to turn an uncertain moment into a genuine family memory.

Can grandparents and large families join, and is the studio accessible?

Yes, we regularly photograph multi-generational families of all sizes. Our studio can accommodate groups of up to XX people comfortably. Please let us know your group size when booking so we can prepare accordingly.

When will we receive our photos?

Your retouched digital soft copies are delivered via a private download link within XX working days of your session. If you wish to order print products such as canvas or framed prints, we will guide you through the process after delivery.
