information about newborn, maternity and family session
NEWBORN SESSION
Details
The newborn session takes place at the comfort of your own home.
The best time to photograph a newborns is while they’re under two weeks of age.
After two weeks babies are a little harder to settle and things like colic and baby acne can start to flare up.
- You can contact me at any time during your pregnancy to give me an estimated due date, I will then make a booking and when you arrive home from hospital with your brand new baby you can contact me as soon as possible to arrange the session date.
- I have over eight years of experience working with newborns so you can be assured that your baby will be in safe hands. Safety is always my priority during each session!
- I supply high quality props: e.g. blankets, hats, headbands, outfits, baskets, etc.
- I am a natural light photographer therefore my sessions start between 10.00am – 11.00am and lasts 2 – 4 hours with plenty of time for feeding and comforting.

MATERNITY SESSION
Details
Pregnancy is the most special and unique time in your life and my goal is to create stunning images that you will treasure forever.
Every pregnency is different so there is no “perfect” time for your maternity photo shoot. I generally recommend scheduling your session between 29 – 36 weeks, when your bump is looking gorgeous.
- Maternity sessions are taken outdoors. I have a few favourite locations in the area which I use depending on what season it is. I’m open to your ideas as well.
Strong light is destructive for the photos so best time for a photoshoot is about 2 hours before the sunset on the sunny days. Earlier times are available on cloudy days only. - Photoshoot can be rescheduled if the weather isn’t as planned.
All kind of long dresses are suitable.
I also strongly recommend to have a makeup and your hair styled.

One of the most important things I do in my approach to family photography is letting you and your children be yourself.
The goal for your family’s session is to make it enjoyable, fun & stress free!
My work captures your best moments, the joy and love that you share.
- Family sessions are taken outdoors. I have a few favourite locations in the area which I use depending on what season it is. I’m open to your ideas as well.

- If you have a small children please make sure they had a nap and are in good mood before the session. Please bring their snacks and toys, it will help to get their attention.
The clothing you wear on the day of your photoshoot is very important and should be carefully planned ahead of the session.
