NEWBORN AND BABY PHOTOGRAPHY

There is something super special about a squishy, sleepy, curly newborn baby. In my studio space in Brighton, Bayside Melbourne, my photography can capture the fleeting magic of your newborn baby.

Your newborn photography session should be booked in and scheduled beforehand according to your due date. It is ideal to book in the second trimester (as I do usually book up in advance). On the day, you just need to show up with your baby! My studio is full of beautiful props and drops so I can use different natural textures, fabrics and colours to compliment your baby. However, my emphasis is always on your baby, and not on props. My studio is peaceful, quiet and warm, and during each session, my sessions are baby-lead so I take my time with your baby to allow settling and feeding if required so that they are happy, calm and relaxed. I encourage parent and sibling photos and this does not incur any additional charge.

Newborn photography is a specialised area of photography and I take your baby’s safety very seriously. I am a former physiotherapist, and I have spent many hours of professional development to ensure the safe handling and posing of your precious baby.  My vaccinations are up to date, I have infant first aid training, I am fully insured, and I have a current Working with Children check.

Upon booking, you are required to pay a non-refundable retainer of $150. A few weeks after the photo session you will be invited to my studio to view the images I have edited. You choose your package from this gallery . Packages start at $525 for 6 finely crafted and edited digital images and a voucher you can use towards printed products.

Susan, Every time I look at the photos they take my breath away, especially the slide show of Lily! I’ve showed that many people, I think Rob thinks I’ve gone a bit loopy. They are just beautiful

Susan was so professional and lovely. Such a natural working with our baby and made us all feel welcome and comfortable. Had beautiful props and final photos were amazing. Highly recommend!
