Newborn, Baby and Family Photographer in Adelaide South Australia
Session Information
Session Information
The sessions are relaxed and informal - as a guide, most family sessions last around an hour, newborn sessions around two hours.
Newborn sessions are scheduled weekdays at around 10am. I love photographing babies of any age or stage, however within the first couple of weeks is when I usually choose to capture the newborn images. I have a large space with beautiful natural light, white walls and white bay window with a window seat, timber floors, a comfy couch for resting and feeding, and I also have an outdoor garden space with a hedge as a backdrop if desired. (Also a handy space for new big brothers and sisters to burn off some energy when they’re not in the shot!)
Baby sessions are all about the snuggly, tiny sleepiness of the newborn and the love that their family shows them. Some babies like to sleep their way through, others like to give us lots of expressions and awake time. Either way- I love it! I work with a palette of mostly whites, timbers and greys, but let me know if you have a particular set up from my images in mind. I work together with you, the parents, so your baby always stays warm and comfortable and finds their own preferred little poses. You are of course welcome to feed at any stage during the session. For the safety of all family members I am up to date with vaccinations including whooping cough and I also receive annual flu vaccinations.
Family sessions are held on weekday evenings or weekends, I have a couple of favourite leafy locations in Adelaide city/inner South-East for family sessions- email me for some sample photos to see what appeals to you most- [email protected]
My family photography style is to try to get everyone to have some laughs and have fun during their outdoor photo sessions. I love getting kids to engage with each other, play and giggle so I can capture their natural expressions. I love to catch cuddles, hand-holding, tickles and families enjoying themselves. Dads will likely be the butt of many of our jokes and teasing… sorry Dads!
Maternity sessions are usually best booked for between 32 and 38 weeks. My style is natural, usually going for an outdoor evening session in a leafy setting.
Wondering what to wear? I recommend choosing clothes that you feel comfortable in- choose a colour palette of two to three main colours to work with (eg whites and blues, then accent with some pinks), I suggest avoiding bold patterns (eg stripes,checks and logos) as they can disctract the eye away from the baby or moment. I have created a Pinterest page for some outfit inspo- feel free to email me for the link :) [email protected]
Boring bits:
Family sessions are for up to 6 immediate family members. (Larger group enquiries please email me at [email protected])
Payment of the session fee will secure a booking and is non-refundable (but is transferable to another date if you need to re-schedule- a minimum of 24 hours notice is required please.)
Session times are subject to availability. Please book newborn sessions before your baby is born if possible, I hate to disappoint.
I would love to hear from you via the contact page, email, Facebook page or Instagram with any questions or to say hi!
