WELCOMING YOUR NEWEST ADDITION
BABIES & NEWBORN
Knowing myself, just how fleeting this time can be with your new baby I'm honoured to be able to capture this time and preserve it for you. The tender moments, the tiny fingers and toes, the adorable expressions that make your baby yours, all documented in a calm, welcoming and warm space.
...From the moment we arrived in her gorgeous studio she was so welcoming and was like a baby whisperer with our newborn son...
...It was incredible watching her skillfully settle him into various positions. We loved how she focused on our baby as the center element, using more neutral props and calming colours...
- Jayne Q

THE CLIENT WARDROBE
Not sure what to wear?
Choosing what to wear to a photoshoot can be incredibly hard even under normal circumstances, it can be even worse when your body is changing to welcome a new life into the world - I know. To ensure that you feel like an absolute goddess in your maternity or newborn session, I have curated a beautiful selection of gowns, dresses and robes for you to wear. Made from gorgeous fabrics, with one size fits all options along with sizing up to 16 options as well.
Simply arrive in something you'd like to be photographed and bring along with nude/mauve/skin toned undergarments (strapless is best where possible) and then you'll be able to choose from the wardrobe as well.
