Three times to be exact. Three squishy little newborns who were horrible feeders, even terrible sleepers and made me cry most days (not in the good way hehe).
Mix that with the pressure to soak it all in when you’re just trying to keep everyone alive (including yourself) and… well.. It’s a lot.
Not all newborns are made equal though, and whether you’re thriving or surviving in this stage, a lot of us still want the photos.
Why?
Because we always end up wishing we were more present in these parts.
Because we always wish we had more of a record of it.
And because, most importantly, future-you is going to be so pissed off if you skip this bit.
You fill out my enquiry form, which will kick off our chat.
You tell me your due date and we’ll put in a tentative booking somewhere in the first 14 days
We’ll get you booked in, and I’ll give you all the info you need to feel prepared for your session.
You turn up prepared, knowing what to expect with all your questions answered by me before the day.
We’ll do your session in the studio, get all the shots you’re dreaming of and I’ll be there guiding you the whole way through it.
A gallery of photos delivered to you within 30 days that make you go..
“Oh my god, my baby doesn’t look like that anymore”.
Then you’ll have a little cry, frame them, post them, or keep them all to yourself.
Totally up to you.
Two session lengths, depending on what you need.
A quick one if you just want a shorter session of bub in your arms.
Or a longer one if you’d rather take your time — feed the baby, settle the kids, and get all the fam plus all the angles of your delicious new bean.
The studio’s a simple, calm space that works no matter what you’re wearing or how much crazy you arrive with.
Liv was great, she made us very comfortable and accommodated all our requests. I thought a newborn photo shoot with 3 children and a dog was going to be crazy but Liv went with the flow, worked with where the kids were at (stopped for snacks) and was just overall a great human. We will be booking future photoshoots with her in the future!
Our photos are gorgeous and Liv’s turnaround time is so fast which is amazing when you’re excited and impatient to see the final result! We look forward to more shoots as our newest arrival grows.
Mum of three, dog mum and almost wife (7 years engaged whoopsie). I grew up in Canberra, and somewhere along the way I fell completely in love with photographing the people who live here.
From bumps to babies, to brands. From families to fur children. Whether we’re in the studio or out on location, my sessions are designed to let the personalities of you and the people you love do the talking — all wrapped up in my signature blend of artistic vision and a knack for making even the awkward bits feel totally normal.
If you’ve made it this far, chances are this is something you might actually want.. even if the mental load, timing, or indecision is trying to talk you out of it.
This is your sign to take the first step.
