Meet Susan Bradfield
Born and raised in Melbourne’s Bayside with a background as a physiotherapist, I bring a deep understanding of comfort, safety, and connection to every session. From family photos to personal headshots, I’ll ensure every session feels relaxed and effortless.
As a multi-award-winning photographer, I’m honoured to be recognised as one of Melbourne’s leading specialists in family, maternity, and newborn photography. These awards are a testament to the professionalism and trust shared with every client I work with.
From Precious Beginnings to Personal Brands
I specialise in capturing portraits with emotion and authenticity, whether during outdoor sessions or in my very own portrait studio in Brighton.
Newborn Photography
Soft, natural newborn photography and baby photographs that reflect the wonder of your baby’s earliest days.
Maternity Photography
Timeless, elegant maternity photographs that celebrate the unique journey of pregnancy and the anticipation of what’s to come.
Family Photography
Genuine family photographs that reflect the connections and personalities within your family.
Personal Branding and Headshot Photography
From headshot photography to professional visuals, I create portraits that reflect your personality and elevate your brand.
Landscape and Wildlife Prints
Beyond portraits, I offer a curated selection of fine art landscape prints featuring stunning scenes from around the world. Each piece is printed on premium fine art paper and canvas, designed to bring beauty and elegance into your space.
What Sets Me Apart
Choosing a photographer isn’t just about the final images, it’s about working with someone you trust to capture moments with care and professionalism.
As an award-winning, accredited photographer, I’m driven by a love of documenting the authentic moments, connections, and details that make your story unique.
Here’s the difference you’ll feel when working with me:
Whether capturing your maternity journey, newborn, or the essence of your personal brand, my goal is always the same – to create photographs that feel true to you.
My approach to photography is all about clean lines, natural poses, and simplicity – leaving you with images that stand the test of time.
With a background in physiotherapy, I bring care, respect, and gentle guidance to every session. I always make sure you, your family, or your newborn feel comfortable.
I’m proud of the many 5-star reviews from clients who value the experience and the images we create together.
When it comes to personal branding, I’m here to help you craft natural, elevated photographs that make your business shine.
