Gentle newborn photography in Rowville, full of heart

Hi there! I’m a lifestyle photographer with over ten years of experience capturing the meaningful and heartfelt moments that shape each family’s story in and around Rowville. While I also photograph the glowing anticipation of pregnancy with maternity photos and the joyful energy of family life with family photos, this page is dedicated to the peaceful, fleeting magic of newborn photography.

Before I found my calling in photography, I studied writing and now I blend these two creative passions to craft genuine visual stories. My approach is rooted in both artistry and empathy, shaped by my own journey as a mum. I know how quickly those newborn days fade into memory, and how much I treasure the few images I have from that time. My aim is to give you something I wish I had more of, natural, meaningful newborn photos that capture your baby’s earliest days, just as they were.

Bringing your baby home to Rowville is a life-changing moment. My newborn sessions are intentionally slow-paced and calm, designed to gently capture the real connection between you and your baby, all within the comfort of your own space.

You don’t need a perfectly styled nursery or a spotless house. My relaxed, lifestyle approach means we’ll adapt to the moment, pausing for feeds, cuddles, or settling breaks as needed. What matters most is the love and connection in the room. Whether this is your first baby or your third, the focus is on creating a stress-free experience where natural, beautiful newborn photos can be taken.

Why Your Rowville home is the perfect setting

There’s something incredibly special about photographing your newborn in the place they first called home. Your Rowville home is full of emotional detail, from their first room you lovingly prepared, the couch where you rock them to sleep, the way the morning light spills across your bed. These everyday scenes become deeply meaningful when captured in this moment in time.

This relaxed in-home setting helps everyone, especially baby, feel at ease. I gently document your family’s early interactions, quiet cuddles, and soft expressions using available natural light to enhance the authenticity of each image. These moments tell a story that’s truly yours, creating a collection of newborn photos that reflect the real beauty of your beginning.

A baby-led experience, every time

After more than a decade photographing newborns, I’ve learned the secret to meaningful newborn photos is to let the baby take the lead. My Rowville newborn sessions are entirely baby-led, we move at their pace, giving plenty of time for everything from feeding and changing to soothing and snuggling.

There’s no rush, no pressure. Just space for your baby to feel comfortable and for you to settle in as you are. This gentle rhythm allows for genuine moments to emerge, from curled-up sleepy stretches to curious wide eyes. These are the kinds of newborn photos you’ll look back on and truly feel.

Capturing fleeting details as your Rowville newborn photographer

During your newborn photos session in Rowville, my lens is keenly focused on capturing all those incredibly important, yet fleeting, tiny details. From the perfect curl of their fingers and the delicate creases of their tiny toes to the sweet pout of their lips and the soft wisps of their hair, these are the unique features that change almost daily in these early weeks. Beyond these sweet details, I also gently capture the beautiful first connections that are already forming, the tender way you hold them, the loving gazes exchanged between parents and baby, and the joyful curiosity of older siblings meeting their new brother or sister. These are the heartfelt, unscripted moments that paint a vivid picture of your family’s new beginning, creating precious memories you’ll want to revisit for years to come, reminding you of this truly magical and incredibly special time in your family’s journey.

Lasting memories captured in your home in Rowville

My ultimate goal as your newborn photographer in Rowville is to provide you with far more than just beautiful pictures. I aim to tell the unfolding story of your family’s new beginning, preserving the incredible emotion and delicate beauty of this unique time. These baby photos are a precious, tangible keepsake, allowing you to forever remember the overwhelming love, the tiny details, and the profound newness of these early days with your little one. It’s astonishing how quickly babies grow and change, and these fleeting moments are truly irreplaceable. Don’t let this incredible chapter of your family’s story pass by uncaptured.

Frequently Asked Questions for Rowville

Can we include our pets in the family session?

Absolutely! Pets are part of the family too. Just let me know in advance so I can plan accordingly. I recommend bringing treats and toys to help keep pets focused during the session.

What if my children don't cooperate during the session?

Don't worry! I'm experienced with children of all ages and temperaments. I use games, songs, and playful activities to keep kids engaged. Some of the best photos come from candid moments when children are being themselves. I'll work with your family's natural dynamics.

What should we wear for our family session?

Choose coordinating colors rather than matching outfits. Avoid bright neon colors and large logos. Earth tones, pastels, and neutral colors work well. Most importantly, wear something you feel comfortable and confident in. I recommend bringing a change of clothes for the kids in case of accidents.

When will we receive our photos?

You'll receive a sneak peek within 48 hours of your session. The full gallery will be ready within 2-3 weeks, depending on the season and my current workload.

How long does a family session typically last?

Family sessions in Melbourne usually last 1-2 hours, depending on the size of your family and the location. This gives us plenty of time to capture a variety of shots while keeping everyone comfortable and engaged.

Do you offer prints and albums?

Yes! I offer professional printing services and beautiful albums to help you preserve your family memories. I can also recommend the best places to print your digital files in Melbourne if you prefer to handle printing yourself.
