Why choose childs journey P hotography to P hotograph your newborn? Because your baby deserves to be safe and have beautiful images that you will treasure for years to come. I have trained under three of New Zealand’s top newborn photographers. I have learnt how to settle and soothe your baby and position them to get not only the best possible image but to ensure that your baby safe. Your baby safety is my top priority. I offer sessions in my purpose built studio; a baby safe space being smoke-free and warm. I am a natural light photographer but I also have studio lighting to help on the dull days. I can come to you and offer a studio style newborn shoot in the comfort of your own home. All my sessions are baby focussed and we run at your babies pace. I source my product from top professional labs to ensure you have a quality product.
Belly Sessions
Sessions can be in my studio, your own home, or in a location of your choice. Partners and children can be included. Sessions last from 30min to 1 hour and a half. Bring a selection of outfits for the session. Popular outfit choices are maxi dresses, leggings and tube top, pre-pregnancy jeans with a fitted shirt, pretty bra and knickers set. Think about how much skin you would like to reveal at the session. Stretch marks are not a problem. If you are proud of them we keep them in or if you would rather them gone they vanish in postproduction. I also have the service of an amazing hair and make up artist who will make you feel refreshed and confident.

Birth story Birth photography is relative new in New Zealand. People often are puzzled why you would let a photographer shoot such a personal event. The simple answer is because its amazing. Having a birth photographer means you get the emotions of the event, that first look between mother and baby is priceless ,it allows your partner to simply support their partner through the process of having a baby with out the stress of trying to capture those important first. Before the birth we have a meeting and discuss what you want and don’t want photographed you are in full control. I respect your privacy and allow you space. I have as much or as little interaction with you during the event as you request

Newborn sessions.
From day 6 to 15 is the traditional newborn age to be photographed. It is best to book your newborn sessions during your second trimester where I will pencil in your due date. (because newborn actual day of delivery can vary it can moved to suit) The room is warm and the session can take up to 4 hours.
Tips for a successful newborn session.
1. Dress baby lightly in easy to remove clothes - gowns are perfect. 2. Ideally baby should be awake before a session. 3. Do a half feed before you come to the studio and top up once you arrive and have baby undressed.
4. Bring a pacifier if they use one. 5. Bring extra bottles if bottle feeding - we feed often during the session 6. Bring a change of clothes - baby will be nappy free at times and accidents happen.
