Celebrate the incredible journey of pregnancy

At times, we radiate with joy, and at times, we may feel less than our best. Yet, for every parent, this period is undeniably exhilarating.  We are here to help you celebrate and preserve this moment in time, forever.

A moment in time, forever in your hearts

This time in your life seems to crawl past but in just a few more months a brand new chapter is about to start. Let’s celebrate this fleeting time in your life while you await or celebrate the arrival of your little one. 

Your maternity & newborn sessions are flexible, unhurried and relaxed. We aim for about an hour, but there’s no rush. Whatever you & bubs need to feel comfortable. We’ll help with suggestions of locations, which range from beautiful beach photos to the comfort of an “at home” session. It’s a celebration of an incredible time in your lives, so we encourage your partner and children to be a part of the session.

The perfect time

All our maternity and Newborn booking dates are flexible. Babies don’t run to schedule! We will book in a session date, then get in touch nearer the time to see how you’re feeling and confirm. If we need to move the session date, that’s absolutely fine.

When should I book in my session?

We highly recommend you contact us to book your maternity session at the start of your second trimester. The later in your pregnancy, the more things you’ll have to consider and do, so tick this one off the list early! For maternity, you’ll likely be showing a pretty decent-sized bump between 28-36 weeks, but we all know how hot it is here! Bear in mind the  later your session date is into your pregnancy, the more uncomfortable you’re likely to feel. We can help with advice during our consult call.

For newborn sessions, it is very dependent on how you feel. The first 2 weeks are the sleepiest time, but as our sesions have minimal posing and are very relaxed, then if you simply don’t feel ready, then please feel free to wait a little longer. We recommend booking around 10 days past your due date.

Please feel free to Contact us with any questions and you can read our FAQ’s.  We’re here to help make this a wonderful experience for you.
