BOOK YOUR SPECIAL DAY

"We got exactly what we wanted out of our photos and Mel made us feel comfortable in front of a camera. She was willing and able to try new things and went out of her way to capture unique and beautiful images that will last a life time! They are photos I'm excited to show my children when they are older"

Why Choose a Maternity Photoshoot?

From the gentle curve of your belly to the glow of your skin, your pregnancy is worth celebrating. A maternity photoshoot is not just about documenting your pregnancy; it’s about honouring the incredible journey you’re on and the life you’re nurturing.
 

Best Time for Your Session

The ideal time is when you're in between 32-36 weeks. During this time, your belly will start to look nice and round. Usually mum’s belly will appear a bit higher during this time frame as well because the baby will not have dropped down too far yet in preparation for delivery. And most importantly, expecting mums still feel comfortable and are able to fully enjoy the experience of getting maternity photos taken in this time frame.

Family Involvement

Partners and siblings and are more than welcome to join in, making the session even more meaningful. Capture the love and excitement that your family shares during this exciting time.
