Tiny Moments, Treasured Memories

Welcome to my newborn sessions – an experience carefully crafted to honour the most fleeting and precious time in your family’s life. My passion is to preserve your little one’s earliest days in a way that feels natural, meaningful, and timeless. These photographs will become treasured keepsakes, allowing you to relive every tender detail of your newborn long after these early weeks have passed.

If you’ve found your way here, you are likely preparing for your baby’s arrival or have just welcomed your precious newborn into your arms. Either way, this is a time of love, wonder, and change – and also a stage that slips away far too quickly. The tiny toes, delicate eyelashes, soft curls, and squishy lips that make your newborn so unique can change in the blink of an eye. That’s why newborn photography holds such importance: it freezes these moments so they are never lost.

A Calm, Gentle Approach

My approach to newborn sessions is simple: gentle, calm, and completely baby-led. I believe every newborn is perfect just as they are, so I create an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and content. Whether you choose a studio newborn session, an in-home experience, or even an outdoor setting, I work at your baby’s pace, following their cues and ensuring plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, and settling.

As a mum myself, I know no two babies are alike. Some newborns love to be wrapped and cosy, while others prefer to stretch out. Some drift off to sleep quickly, while others are more alert and curious. My sessions are designed with flexibility in mind, so you can relax knowing your newborn’s needs will always come first.

The Studio Experience

The studio is a warm, welcoming space created with parents and newborns in mind. Everything you need is provided – from soft blankets and delicate props to a carefully curated wardrobe of newborn wraps and newborn clothing. These items have been thoughtfully selected in timeless, neutral tones to ensure your photographs remain classic and focused on your baby’s natural beauty.

I created this studio so you don’t need to worry about tidying the house, hiding the laundry, or preparing a space for photos. It is a place designed entirely for you to come, relax, and soak in these precious moments with your newborn. Many parents tell me how much they appreciate being able to simply arrive, settle in, and enjoy the experience without the stress of preparing their home for visitors.

You don’t need to worry about shopping, packing, or preparation. Simply bring your newborn and yourselves, and allow me to take care of the rest. Many parents enjoy sitting back with a warm drink, watching their baby peacefully snooze, while I capture all those tiny details.

At Home or Outdoors

For families who prefer a more personal touch, I also offer newborn sessions in your own home or outdoors in the Clare Valley region. An at-home newborn session is perfect for capturing your family in a familiar, relaxed environment, surrounded by the spaces that hold meaning to you. Outdoor newborn sessions allow us to include the beauty of nature as a backdrop – soft golden light, rolling landscapes, and wide open skies that perfectly frame your little one.

Capturing the Details That Matter

One of my greatest joys during a newborn session is focusing on the tiny details that so often go unnoticed. The curl of their hair, the wrinkly fingers, the little stretch they do after a big yawn – these are the things that make your newbornuniquely yours. While we create beautiful portraits, I also love to capture these candid, in-between moments that tell the story of your baby’s earliest days.

A Stress-Free Experience for Parents

I know how overwhelming the first weeks of parenthood can be. That’s why I have designed my newborn sessions to be as relaxing as possible for you. From the moment you arrive, my goal is to take the pressure off so you can simply sit back, breathe, and enjoy this time. Sessions are never rushed, and we always allow space for feeds, changes, and cuddles.

Safety is my absolute priority during every newborn session. I use safe posing techniques and ensure your baby’s comfort at all times. You can rest assured that your little one is in caring hands throughout the entire process.

The Lasting Value of Newborn Photography

Investing in a newborn session is about more than photographs – it’s about preserving your family’s story. These images become part of your family’s legacy, to be cherished not only by you but by your child as they grow and by generations to come.

I also offer a range of professional prints, wall art, and albums, so your images don’t simply live on a computer screen. There is something truly special about seeing your newborn’s portrait hanging in your home or turning the pages of a beautifully crafted album filled with their earliest memories.

More Than Just Photos

Ultimately, a newborn session is about more than just the final images. It’s about the experience, the connection, and the joy of celebrating your new arrival. These early weeks are so brief, but through photography, they can be remembered forever.

When you look back on your newborn photos, I want you to not only see your baby’s face but also feel the love, warmth, and wonder of this extraordinary chapter in your life. That is the heart of what I offer – a chance to pause time, to honour the miracle of new beginnings, and to treasure the tiny moments that make up your baby’s story.
