I’m now based in Romsey, in the beautiful Macedon Ranges, and photograph families right across the region — from Gisborne, Lancefield and Woodend to Kyneton, Sunbury and beyond. I also return to Melbourne regularly, particularly for sessions in the north including Doreen, Mernda, Donnybrook, Kalkallo, Eltham and Hurstbridge.

Travel is included for sessions within the Macedon Ranges. A small travel fee may apply for locations more than an hour from Romsey.

Newborn sessions run 60 to 90 minutes— enough time to ease in, find our rhythm and capture a real variety of moments without anyone running out of steam.

But I'm not sitting there with a stop watch. If bub is really unsettled or is going through a period of cluster feeds, we might take that little longer.

And in case your wondering, maternity sessions run for 40 minutes while fresh 48 sessions run for around an hour (so you can still have other visitors during visiting hours).

To really capture that fresh, squishy newborn stage, I suggest having your photoshoot within the first two weeks of their life. But honestly, there’s no bad time. Babies are beautiful at any age and so book when it works for you.

Just as a guide, you tend to get smiles around the 2-3 month mark, at 6-7 months they will more than likely be sitting (with or without help) and from around 9 months, they’re often on the move, crawling about and opening all of your drawers.

I want you to be comfortable and dress as you usually would. If you'd like a little guidance, your session guide has a whole section on this — no decision paralysis required.

No studio — all newborn sessions happen in your own home. It's where your baby is most comfortable, the light is beautiful and everything you need is right there. I use natural light throughout to capture something real and heartfelt.

I don’t bring any props to sessions. I believe it’s a lot more meaningful to use items that you own, that reflect your style and that may become treasured items to your little one.

So pull out the quilt that nanna made, the beloved teddy bear from your childhood and the knitted blanket in the colour you love. It’s these little things that will add an extra spark to your photographs. 

I certainly do! There's nothing quite like holding a photograph in your hands or seeing your newborn framed on your wall. They create a visual legacy that won't get lost on your phone or computer.

I use the best photographic labs around to provide you with long lasting prints and beautiful keepsakes which you have the option of purchasing through your gallery.

Whichever way you choose to print, all I ask is for you to choose a high quality lab. It makes all the difference. 

Yes — and I love it.

Maternity sessions are available as a standalone or bundled with your newborn session for 20% off.

Around 34-37 weeks is the sweet spot. Get in touch and we'll chat through the details.

Unlike many photographers, I don’t wait for your baby to sleep before photographing them. I want your photoshoot to be as realistic to what life is like at this particular time. So if your baby is awake, let them be awake. If they need to feed or just want to be cuddled, go for it!

Newborn sessions need anywhere between 60-90 mins (sometimes longer) allowing plenty of time to pause and tend to your baby’s every need… which I will also happily photograph.

Yes — I encourage the whole family to be involved. These aren't just baby photos. They're the story of your whole family in those first extraordinary days.

Yes — absolutely. Siblings add a whole other layer of magic to newborn sessions. Big brothers and sisters meeting their new sibling for the first time is one of my favourite things to photograph. Just let me know who'll be there on the day.

Not much at all — I'll work with whatever light and space you have. Your session guide has some simple tips but honestly, the most important thing is that you feel relaxed. The house doesn't need to be tidy.
