I offer a discounted bundle package if booking your maternity and newborn photo sessions at the same time. I promise to create a comfortable and enjoyable space for you to document and celebrate your pregnancy so far. When reflecting on your maternity gallery, I hope you feel beautiful and proud of yourself. Newborn sessions can take some time and that's okay. During our session, I expect baby will require settling, snuggles and possibly a feed. I will always guide your family through posing and prompts during our time together. I want your images to feel organic and my gentle direction will help you feel comfortable enough to connect with one another. Let's capture the candid and the posed images of your and your family together. I offer newborn photography in a variety of different styles. This can take place in your own home or in the beautiful outdoors. Styling and location advice is included in all options with the ability to wear any of the pieces in my client closet collection. I will always guide you through posing and prompts during our time together. I want your images to feel organic and my gentle direction will help you feel comfortable.

Locations
Your photoshoot can to be done wherever your heart desires. Part of your booking includes my advice to help plan and pick out a location with you. This could be a location which I have access to, a public space or your own private property. I am always excited to photograph you and your family somewhere which is special to you and your loved ones.
The process
Ready to book or organise something together? Send me a message or an email with some details of what you are wanting to have photographed. I'll send a list of available dates for you and your family. Once a date for both your maternity and newborn session is organised, I will send a welcome email to you with all the details to move forward with your booking. I'll make contact before our organised date to double check all our details together. Newborn bookings are flexible to allow for any reschedules needed due to the nature of birth - simply send me a message closer to your organised to date to discuss our options. After our time together you can expect to receive a selection gallery within 7 days. From this gallery you are welcomed to select your images included within your chosen package. The images within this selection gallery are lightly edited to give you an idea of what to expect. Your completed gallery will include your chosen images edited to a professional level. Your finished gallery will be delivered within 2 weeks of your selections being completed. Your gallery will be delivered by both a private online gallery and a custom USB sent to your home address.
Styling
A variety of dresses are available to every mother to wear during the time of her session. I have a gallery showcasing the dresses available which will be sent to you upon booking. I'll prepare and clean each dress with every session. I will take care of the preparation and cleaning of each dress. A large selection of outfits are available for your baby to wear in sizes from tiny newborn to 18 months. My client closet and props are available for your use to create the image you are trying to achieve.
When should I book?
For your pregnancy, I usually recommend booking your session between 32 weeks until 36 weeks. Ideally, we want your bump to be visible without being too uncomfortable. Every mother is different and will have a different idea on when will suit her best to photograph her pregnancy. There is no right or wrong answer. For your newborn session, there is no exact time frame where you 'have' to photography your baby, I have captured baby's up until about ten weeks of age, it's never too late! Sometimes life gets in the way, those first couple of weeks is exhausting and the thought of fitting in a photography session may be the last thing you feel like doing. Typically, I recommend scheduling your newborn baby photo shoot about 14 to 21 days after your due date. Once baby is born we then review your booked date and time for your newborn session and make any reschedules if needed. 5 to 14 days is the ideal age for a newborn portrait session as babies this age are pretty chilled, sleep most of the time and curl up easily in those gorgeous poses. Once baby hits two weeks old they tend to be more alert, and outgrow that fragile newborn look. Babies older than 14 days are not so malleable and tiny. Slightly older babies are likely to be more alert and aware of their surroundings. So photo sessions with older babies can result in more ‘eyes open’ shots. These images will show more of your babies personality. Whichever age you choose to photograph your newborn will be beautiful.
