Natural newborn photography in Blackburn
I’m a lifestyle photographer based near Blackburn with over a decade of experience capturing real, meaningful moments for families across Melbourne. I specialise in newborn photography, maternity sessions, and family photos, working with a relaxed, storytelling-based approach. Long before I picked up a camera, I studied writing and now I blend these two creative passions to tell each family’s story through thoughtful, emotive images.
This page is dedicated to newborn photography in Blackburn, documenting the early days with your baby in a gentle, natural, and comfortable way.
Newborn photos in Blackburn
I absolutely love phootgraphing babies and getting to document a part of your early days together. I photograph families in the places that matter most, your own home or favourite outdoor locations around Blackburn, the Dandenong Ranges, or even the Mornington Peninsula. Whether you’re curled up on the couch with your baby, or soaking in the fresh air on a quiet trail, I aim to capture honest connection, tenderness, and all the little details you’ll want to remember forever.
As your newborn photographer in Blackburn, my focus is always on comfort. I understand that these early weeks can feel like a whirlwind, which is why my sessions are laid-back and flexible. No need to tidy your house before I arrive, we’ll simply clear small areas as we go. You’ve just had a baby. That’s what matters.
Lifestyle newborn photos in Blackburn
Your baby will never be this tiny again. My newborn photography captures those early days in a calm, unobtrusive way, preserving your family’s story exactly as it unfolds. This might include sleepy snuggles, feeding moments, the soft weight of your baby in your arms, or tiny toes stretching beside yours.
We’ll go at your baby’s pace, with plenty of time for feeding, changing, or cuddles. Whether it’s your first child or you’re welcoming a new sibling, I’ll gently guide you without ever forcing poses or rushing the process. The result? Natural, emotive baby photos you’ll treasure for years.
Blackburn in-home newborn sessions
There’s something truly special about photographing families at home in Blackburn. Your home is where your life happens, it’s where you rock your baby to sleep, where the toys end up scattered, and where the light falls just right in a certain spot in the morning. It’s the most honest setting for your newborn photos, and it allows you and your baby to feel totally at ease.
Whether you’re in a light-filled apartment or a cosy home, we’ll find the perfect pockets of light and create meaningful images that reflect your daily life with your baby.
Outdoor baby and newborn photos in Blackburn
If you’re drawn to the outdoors, Blackburn has some beautiful parks and nature reserves that offer a peaceful backdrop for your baby photos. We can also explore nearby locations in the Dandenong Ranges or head to the coast for golden-hour beach sessions.
Outdoor sessions are ideal for those who want a relaxed, nature-filled setting that highlights connection and movement.
