Dad & Lad, Mini & Me Photography Little Shop of Horror Costumery Mornington Melbourne

Mini & Me Photography - Little Shop of Horrors Costumery & Pop-Culture Emporium - 16 Bennetts Rd Mornington Melbourne

Whether it’s Dad & Lad or Mum & Me, this experience is made for parents and kids who want a day they’ll never forget. Memories, magic and movie moments all in one place.

At Little Shop of Horrors, our Parent & Kid Character Photography Package is all about creating something unforgettable together. A dynamic duo, a mischievous pair of villains, or two movie icons from different worlds, this experience is designed to celebrate your bond in the most memorable way possible.

The parent will be styled head-to-toe in one of our incredible screen-quality costumes, complete with character-accurate makeup and a custom lace front wig application if their look requires it. Children have full access to our kids retail costume range, plus select pieces, props, and accessories from our hire collection that help bring their character to life in the most magical way.

You’ll each enjoy your own individual mini shoot, giving you a chance to shine in character with dramatic lighting, bold shadows, and that signature Little Shop of Horrors cinematic colour. Then the real magic begins as we bring you together for a combined duo shoot, capturing the energy, chemistry, cheekiness, and connection you share.

Your full experience runs for approximately four hours, including time for styling, costumes, makeup, and your personalised studio photography session. Along the way, you’ll enjoy refreshments and a selection of tea and coffee.

After your session, you’ll receive a private online gallery of proofs so you can select your favourite moments. High-resolution, professionally edited digital images are not included in the base package price but can be purchased individually or in curated bundles - choose as few or as many as you love.

This package creates something bigger than a photo… it becomes a memory the two of you will talk about for years.

Dad & Lad. Mum & Me. One parent, one child, and a day you will both talk about for years. This package includes simple makeup for kids and one complimentary image of your child as part of the experience. Extra children may join the fun from $100 each.*
*Photos must be purchased to qualify.

Not All Characters Are Created Equal

Understanding Your Makeup Options

From avant-garde beauty, iconic characters or full-blown cinematic creatures, every Movie Makeover is different. Some transformations are achieved with paint and contouring… others call for scars, prosthetics, and serious special effects.

Click on each image below to explore the difference between Character Makeup and the Creature Feature Upgrade - so you’ll know exactly which service your character transformation calls for.

P.S. Extras, like bald caps, horns and fake noses, are available as additional upgrades - just ask!

YOUR DIGITAL IMAGES

GALLERY SELECTION & ORDERING

After your photoshoot, you’ll receive a private online gallery of watermarked proofs to view at your leisure. From there, you can select your favourite images to purchase individually or as part of a curated bundle, choose as few or as many as you love.

Each image you select is meticulously hand-edited by our photographer. We’re not talking filters or presets, this is professional retouching, pixel by pixel. We colour-grade for drama, sculpt with light and shadow, smooth flyaways, enhance details, and polish every portrait to perfection. It’s the kind of work usually reserved for magazine covers, and your photos deserve no less.

We’ve intentionally kept our photoshoot session pricing lower by not including digital images upfront. Why? Because no two clients are the same. Some want just one show-stopping portrait, others want the entire gallery… so we’ve built a flexible system that lets you decide how far you want to go.

High-resolution, professionally edited images are available to purchase separately, starting at $200 for a single image, with packages available for even better value. Because when the images are this good, you’ll want to take more than one home.

Studio sessions are booked and paid in full prior to your appointment. There’s no need to decide on images in advance, once you receive your private gallery of proofs, you’re free to select and purchase as many or as few professionally edited images as you like. T&Cs can be found here.
