There are few moments in life that will be more exciting than welcoming a new baby to your family. I am here to capture those precious fleeting moments and capture the joy and wonder of this exciting time.
You won’t know when your baby will arrive, unless you’re having a scheduled c-section! So please let me know your expected due date in advance to add to my calendar. Once your baby is born, we will then schedule your actual newborn session. I am happy to photograph your baby at any age. I recommend if you are after the sleepy, curled up stage to have me visit within the first 2 weeks after baby is born. Otherwise there really is no limit as to how old your baby needs to be. Every moment is precious.
Newborn sessions take place in your own home. I have a range of neutral newborn outfits, blankets and wraps you may choose to use. And I can assist with outfit choices for you, your partner and your family.
I don't set a time limit on newborn sessions as I understand that some babies may require more time to settle than others, it takes as long as it takes.

THE EXPERIENCE
I'm so excited to be documenting this special time in your lives. My sessions are natural and relaxed, centred around capturing the love and connection you share as a family.
I know how stressful having your family photographed can be, and I'm here to help make it a fun experience. I aim to make the process as easy as possible so you have a great experience and come out with amazing memories at the end of it.
I've included some frequently asked questions below for your reference. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
FAQ
Will you show me how to pose?
I don't like families to feel awkward and posed the entire time. But in saying this I will give you a lot of soft guidance during our session. I do not expect you to find the prettiest light or nail the prettiest angle all on your own. With my guidance though, we'll be able to create images that feel organic and relaxed without you feeling lost or awkward.
Where are you based and do you travel?
I love to travel. I am based in the Dandenong Ranges but am normally happy to travel depending on location. Please let me know at the time of booking if you are over an hour away from Monbulk, VIC and we'll discuss options. A small travel fee may occur.
When will we get our photos?
You will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within maximum 4 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph your story). You can download all the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and also order prints!
What location options are there?
I have a list of preferred locations in the Dandenong Ranges in Melbourne. Some are seasonal and some are year round. These have all been tried and tested by me and I find that they work best for my families and my style. Leading up to our session I will send these location options and we will either choose one or you may even opt for an in-house session in your own home. If you have an even better idea, please let me know and we can chat about your options.
