Choose our cozy Mona Vale studio, or have our fully-kitted mobile van come to your home, the beach, or your chosen location across the Northern Beaches and North Shore. Studio or mobile, same gear, same gentle pace, same Aline.
An unhurried rhythm.
Arrive & settle
Tea is poured, gowns are pulled, we talk through the rhythm of your day. Nothing starts until you're ready.
Frame by frame
Window-led portraits — solo, then with your partner, then with siblings. Movement, breath, the small smiles you'll forget by next week.
A quiet close
We finish with a few candid frames on the lounge — cold drinks, soft music, sometimes the beach if golden hour aligns.
Common questions.
- When in pregnancy should I book?
- 32–36 weeks is the sweet spot — bump is full but you're still mobile and comfortable. We hold dates 2–3 months ahead, so reach out early in the second trimester.
- Do I need to bring my own wardrobe?
- No — our studio wardrobe runs XS through XXL in soft, neutral fabrics designed to photograph beautifully. You're welcome to bring a favourite piece too.
- Can my partner and older kids come?
- Absolutely. The session is built around your family — partner portraits and sibling moments are woven through, never bolted on.
A maternity sitting your future self will be grateful for.
