Maternity Photography in Melbourne

Maternity photos are best captured around 30-36 weeks when you have a nice round bump.
You can contact me at any time during your pregnancy to book a tentative time for your session, although it is advisable to secure your session in the second trimester. Closer to delivery, we can confirm the date.

You have a choice of studio or outdoors: I have a cosy, well equipped pregnancy photo studio in Brighton, bayside Melbourne. It’s filled with beautiful light – perfect for capturing photos of your pregnancy journey. I also offer outdoor sessions at a location of your choice, within a 10km radius of Hampton, Vic. To ensure a seamless and focused experience, sessions are held at either a studio or an outdoor location (not both).

Yes! I am happy to chat with you so we can find the perfect location for your maternity pregnancy photoshoot.

You are welcome to bring any lingerie, your denim jeans, or a favourite dress you would love captured. I would also suggest bringing your refreshments of choice to keep you hydrated and energised throughout the session.

Yes! I have an extensive collection of maternity gowns and fabrics in my pregnancy photo studio, which you may use free of charge. My wardrobe varies in sizes and styles, and I will work closely with you so we achieve your style and look.

Yes! I provide your digital images in black and white, and in colour.

Yes! In fact I encourage it.

Absolutely! It’s my job to make you feel comfortable, and I know how to make women look their best in photos. I want this to be a relaxing and memorable experience for you.

Usually 60-90 minutes. This allows for several outfit, lighting and backdrop changes so we achieve variety in your gallery.

Upon booking you will be required to pay a non-refundable retainer of $150 (for a single session). For a combined maternity and newborn session, the session fee is $300. Digital and printed products are in addition to this. Packages start at $525 for six digital images. For more detailed pricing information, please contact me directly.

If you’d like professional hair and makeup for your pregnancy photography session, I can connect you with trusted artists who specialise in enhancing natural beauty. Payment is made directly to them.

After the session, I take some time to roughly edit your images. Around 1 to 2 weeks later, I will invite you back to the studio, and I will show you a select number of photos from the session.  You choose your package on this day. Packages start at $525 for six finely crafted and edited digital images and their complimentary prints. I then take your chosen images and polish them up, then share the final images with you via Dropbox.

You’ve invested a lot in your photos, so they should be worthy of your walls. I work with professional printers who use fine art archival quality paper, canvases and inks. This means no over-saturation or colour changes in your prints – and no colour fading with time – so your prints will literally last for your grandchildren to see and touch.
