Choose your tier.
Three tiers across every session. The bigger the tier, the longer the session, the more digitals, and the more we include in the take-home set.
Additional hand-retouched digital images are available à la carte for $25 + GST each, or 5 for $99 + GST.
Additional fine art prints, premium albums, canvases, framed canvases and acrylic prints are all available à la carte — crafted with our trusted local Sydney suppliers, with options for every budget.
Most families invest between $800 and $1,200 depending on whether they add premium canvas prints, acrylics or albums on top of their package.

— For grandparents
A gift voucher, your amount.
The grandparents we meet often want to do something more lasting than another bunting set or onesie box. A gift voucher lets the parents put it toward the session — or the prints — that mean the most to them.
Choose any amount. A digital voucher lands in your inbox the moment you purchase, and we also post a premium linen gift card in an envelope — ready to hand over at the shower. Valid 12 months. The parents pick their own date and package when they're ready.
— How payment works
Flexible, by design.
We've made this as flexible as possible because the last thing a new parent needs is a financial squeeze.

— FAQ
The questions parents ask most.
- When should I book?
- Maternity sessions are best captured between 28 and 36 weeks, when your bump is beautifully round and you're still comfortable moving around. Newborn sessions are ideally photographed within the first 14 days after birth, for those sleepy, curled-up poses. For newborn sessions, I reserve your due date and we confirm the final session date once baby arrives.
- What if baby comes early or late?
- Your $199 deposit is held against your booking, not a specific date. We re-time around baby's actual arrival. No re-booking fee.
- Do you travel?
- Maternity and Family sessions can be photographed on the Northern Beaches as well as in studio. Newborn sessions are studio-only so we can control temperature, lighting, and safety.
- Is the studio set up for siblings, dads, grandparents, family pets?
- Yes to siblings, dads, grandparents — all included in the studio time. Family pets case-by-case (the studio is small and warm — we'll have a chat).
- Can grandparents buy the session as a gift?
- Yes — gift vouchers are available for any amount you choose, from $50 up. A digital voucher is emailed to you the moment you purchase, and we also post a premium linen gift card in an envelope so you have something beautiful to hand over at the shower. Valid 12 months, and the parents put it toward the session and prints they love most.
- Do you offer payment plans?
- Yes. Three equal instalments before your session date, no extra fees. Just ask when you book.
- What if I want to add more digitals, an album, or wall art?
- Extra fine art prints, premium albums, canvases, framed canvases and acrylic prints are all available à la carte, crafted with our trusted local Sydney suppliers. Additional hand-retouched digitals are $25 each, or 5 for $99. Just let us know — pricing is transparent and there's never any obligation.
- How do I book?
- Choose your session and tier above, leave your details, and we'll send a personal note within one business day with a link to choose your date.
