Your session includes
LIFESTYLE Maternity photography
Having a baby is a pretty big deal, and maternity photos are a chance to remember this part of the journey before life gets turned upside down in the best possible way.
These sessions are relaxed and easy-going, with plenty of laughs and no awkward posing. We’ll head to one of my favourite Northland locations or somewhere that means something to you and create images that feel natural and genuine. Partners, children and pets are always welcome. In fact, I love including them.
Whether it’s little hands on your bump, a cuddle with your partner, or the family dog trying to steal the spotlight, these are all part of your story too. You don’t need to know how to pose or what to do in front of the camera.
I’ll guide you when needed and keep things relaxed, so you can simply enjoy the experience. The best time for a maternity session is usually between 30 and 36 weeks, when your bump is beautifully visible but you’re still comfortable enough to wander along the beach, explore a favourite spot, or chase a sunset. Because before long, you’ll be holding your baby in your arms and this chapter will be over.

Planning your session
How long is a maternity session?
Most maternity sessions take around 45 to 60 minutes. There's no rush, so we can take our time, wander between a few spots if needed, and stop whenever you need a breather. The session is relaxed and easy-going, with plenty of gentle guidance along the way.
Where do maternity sessions happen?
Anywhere that feels like you. Beaches are always a favourite around Northland, but we can also head to a favourite bush walk, your home, a paddock at sunset, or another meaningful location. We'll choose somewhere with beautiful light and plenty of space to relax.
What should we wear?
Soft, neutral colours and simple outfits always photograph beautifully. Flowing dresses work wonderfully for maternity sessions, but the most important thing is that you feel comfortable and like yourself. Once you're booked, I'll send through a detailed styling guide with plenty of ideas and inspiration.
Can partners and children join?
Absolutely. Maternity is about more than just your bump. Partners, children and even well-behaved dogs are always welcome. These sessions celebrate your growing family, so everyone who’s part of that story is invited.
When is the best time during pregnancy?
The sweet spot is usually between 30 and 36 weeks, when your bump is beautifully visible but you’re still comfortable enough to move around. If you’re expecting twins or have a high-risk pregnancy, it’s often best to book a little earlier.
When should we book?
It’s best to book your session during your second trimester to make sure we can secure a date. We can always adjust the timing slightly as your due date gets closer if needed.
How many images do we receive?
Your session includes 30 or 50 beautifully edited high-resolution digital images depending on your package, carefully selected and professionally edited. You’ll receive a private online gallery where you can choose your favourites, download them, and order prints if you wish.
