Combine any two or more sessions (within 12 months) and receive $200 off your second session.

Perfect for pairing maternity + newborn, or capturing baby’s first year in chapters.

Your story doesn't fit in one session. let’s tell the whole thing.

The best time for a maternity session is between 30-35 weeks when your bump is beautifully round but you’re still comfortable enough to move with ease. This is a short window in life, and these photos will serve as a timeless reminder of the love and anticipation before your little one arrives.

Once booked, look out for an email with my client welcome guide. This guide will tell you everything you need to know to have an amazing photo session - from what to wear, to how to get the kids (and husband) excited - to decide on your session location. I will be there to guide you!

A lifestyle Melbourne maternity session is a beautiful way to document this fleeting chapter — the anticipation, the love, and the excitement of growing a new life. These sessions are relaxed and natural, focusing on real moments rather than posed perfection. Whether at home, where you feel most comfortable, or outdoors in a stunning natural setting, we’ll capture the quiet glances, soft touches, and genuine connection that make this time so special.

Absolutely! When booking both maternity and newborn you receive $200 off your second session. If you like to add on a 6 or 12 months session get in touch to chat about what journey I can document for you.

Do you offer a bump to baby bundle?

I recommend securing your session after your first trimester. I only take on 8 bookings per month and tend to book up 2-3 months in ahead, so please ensure to book well in advance to avoid disappointment. Maternity sessions are typically done at around 30-36 weeks of pregnancy. 

when should we book our session?

Maternity sessions can be just of the mum to be or with the full family. These sessions are designed to capture your journey in that moment in time when you are about to welcome your new baby to the family. These sessions do not include grandparents or extended family members. 

Who can be in the photos?

Absolutely! I love, love, love prints! It makes such a difference having your images printed on your walls. You will have access to my professional print lab within your online gallery. I offer loose prints, frames, albums and more. So there is no excuse to let your photos collect dust on your hard drive. 

Can I order print products?

I recommend picking something that makes you feel beautiful and feels like YOU. Choosing the right out fit for your session is important and I am here to help. You can check my what to wear guide here. I am always happy to talk you through any questions you might have. 

What should we wear??

I am personally a sucker for in-home session. This gives you the freedom to change and show some skin, without worrying about being in public. If you prefer an outdoor sunset session, we can have a chat about what feel you are after and you can pick one of my recommended locations or go with a spot that is close to your heart.
