MATERNITY

Your body is creating a human [insert happy squeal here]!

Let’s capture that glorious bump before bubs comes out. I’m so sad I never got maternity photos. I don’t want you to have the same regret.

This session can be just for you, or you can also include your partner and kids. Let’s celebrate what your body is doing by keeping this memory forever in photos.

This session is best held when you are between 33-37 weeks pregnant. ➔

Capturing Your Maternity Journey in your home in Melbourne

Pregnancy is a fleeting, magical time, and maternity photography is all about celebrating the amazing changes your body is going through while capturing your family’s excitement before your baby arrives. Every session is designed to be relaxed, comfortable, and joyful - whether it’s just you, you and your partner, or the whole family including siblings.

Choosing an in-home maternity session in Melbourne offers a unique way to feel completely at ease while creating authentic, heartfelt images. Your home is where your family feels most comfortable, and it provides a personal backdrop for images that truly reflect your life, your style, and the love you share. From cuddles with your partner to gentle interactions with siblings, every session tells a story that is uniquely yours.

  • In-home sessions offer many benefits for expectant parents:

    • Comfort and privacy: You can relax in a space you know and love.

    • Family involvement: Partners and older children can participate naturally.

    • Authenticity: Your home’s personal touches make your photos uniquely yours.

    • Ease and convenience: No driving or stress of a studio - everything happens right where you live.

    This approach allows your maternity photos to feel natural and connected, not posed or forced. It also makes the transition to newborn sessions seamless, as you’re already familiar with having me in your space, capturing moments as they naturally unfold.

  • Maternity sessions are slow, comfortable, and fully guided by your comfort level. I focus on highlighting the beauty of your bump, the connection between you and your partner, and the love your family shares. Sessions typically include:

    • Close-up images celebrating your bump

    • Natural lifestyle-style shots with you, your partner, and children

    • Interaction-focused moments, such as laughter, gentle touches, and cuddles

    • Optional props or meaningful items that represent your family story

    I guide poses gently, helping you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera, but the emphasis is always on capturing real moments, emotions, and connection.

  • The ideal window for maternity photography is between 33–37 weeks, when your bump is beautifully prominent but you’re still comfortable moving around. Booking in advance is highly recommended, as this ensures we can schedule a session that works around your pregnancy milestones and your family’s availability.

    Even if you’re past 37 weeks, don’t worry - we can always find creative ways to capture your bump in a relaxed, flattering, and joyful session. Planning early ensures your maternity images are captured at the perfect time without stress or rushing.

    • Wear what feels comfortable: Soft, stretchy clothing or flowing dresses often work beautifully.

    • Include your loved ones: Partners, children, or pets help make your session personal and memorable.

    • Keep it simple and relaxed: The best images happen when everyone feels at ease.

    • Consider your home lighting: A naturally lit space makes photos look soft, warm, and authentic.

    These small preparations help the session flow smoothly and ensure the final images feel natural, joyful, and timeless.

  • Pregnancy passes quickly - it’s over before you know it. Maternity photography gives you a chance to celebrate this incredible time, remember how your family felt while anticipating a new arrival, and create memories that will last a lifetime. These images will also become a beautiful bridge to your newborn session, capturing the story of your family from bump to baby.

    By investing in maternity photography in Melbourne, you’re capturing:

    • The connection between you and your partner

    • The anticipation and excitement of welcoming a new family member

    • The love and personalities of siblings interacting with the growing family

    • The beauty of your changing body and your strength as a parent

    These images aren’t just photographs - they’re memories, keepsakes, and moments frozen in time.
