your session

Newborn photography melbourne

Absolutely nothing compares to the joy of welcoming a new member into your family. Discover the magic of expert newborn photography in Melbourne with Something Meaningful. I’m here to lovingly capture every tiny detail of your precious new arrival.

Your session is a celebration of those enchanting first days when your little one is at their sleepiest and most delicate. Ideally, I recommend scheduling your session within the first two weeks of your baby’s life, although I welcome babies up to 4 weeks old. To accommodate the unpredictability of newborn arrivals, I operate on tentative bookings based on expected due dates, ensuring flexibility and availability each month.

Questions

newborn photography
Frequently asked questions

Most clients book their newborn sessions when baby is around one week of age (between 6 – 14 days old) in order to get the very best result from your session.

As newborns get older they tend to have longer awake periods, and become more challenging to settle, as they are easily disturbed while dreaming.

Also, most babies will have a flush of skin spots at some stage between 2 and 8 weeks of age.

Its advised to book your session while still pregnant, to ensure you a session around your due date to capture your little one as new as possible. Sessions typically book out months in advance.

We will make a tentative booking for your newborn session based on your due date and set a date once baby arrives. If your bundle arrives earlier or later than expected, this can easily be changed.

If you have already had your new baby, please contact me as I may have some availability to fit you in. If I am unable to do so, I am more than happy to refer you to some of my prefered/reliable professional newborn photographer colleagues.

As newborn photography is very specialised, all newborn sessions are held in Brittany’s in home studio in Altona Meadows, where it is easy to set up and move between props with little fuss for the family, and more importantly your new little one.

As a newborn is unpredictable, we work to their schedule! Therefore a newborn session generally take 2 hours (can take up to 3 hours or more). This allows for feeding, cuddles, changing etc. These sessions are never rushed! Please be prepared to be patient and go with the flow – your babies flow!

Newborn Photography sessions are held during the week, at around 10am.

Absolutely YES!

We want the whole family involved! In your session my aim is to give you as much variety in your images as I possibly can. We’ll get poses of baby on their own as well as with siblings, mum & dad and the whole family together.

There is no extra cost for bringing immediate family members to your session.

Newborn Photography sessions with Something Meaningful are all about simplicity. I prefer not to over-cluetter or over-accessorise. I prefer your baby to be the main focus of my work. My style is minimalistic & clean. Nude is usually best, with neutral & muted tones blankets & wraps.

I always encourage sentimental items to be photographed with baby, such as old teddies, blankets etc. Most props and blankets featured on the website are available for use at the studio, so dont feel pressured to bring anything at all.

For baby, s/he will be photographed in their beautiful bare skin, and for parents I suggest simple neutral colours. A change of clothes for everyone is recommended as a healthy baby will make a mess at times!

You may also utilize the studio wardrobe which includes a range of pieces for the whole family.

Upon booking you will receive my welcome guide packed with information to cover all your questions & ensure you are prepared & get the best out of your session.

Session Fee pricing information can be found HERE.

This is the best part!

After I narrowed down the best images (usually around 50) from your session, we’ll sit down together in your in-person viewing appointment to view all the gorgeous images in your gallery.

In this time. Ill help you select & order your favourite photo products.

This usually happens 1-2 weeks after your session.
