MATERNITY AND NEWBORN
Ready to capture your motherhood journey?
Congratulations mama. What an incredible journey you’re on. From personal experience, it’s been my favourite chapter, so let’s honour it in a way that feels like you!
I specialise in maternity, newborn, and combined bump-to-babe packages, creating a beautiful, cohesive story of your journey from pregnancy to motherhood.
Whether on the beach, in your backyard, floating in the ocean or at home with your newborn, I’m here to capture soulful moments of you with your littlest love.
Maternity
Pregnancy is wild. Beautiful. Exhausting. Transformative. You’re carrying an entire tiny human inside you — and even though you’re sore, swollen, and counting down the weeks, you know you’ll miss this feeling one day.
You want to remember your body exactly as it is right now — powerful, womanly, glowing (even if you don’t feel it every day). You want to show your baby their first home.
This is your chance to slow down and celebrate your body
Your body, your way
Take your pick
On land, floating in water, or both
You don’t need to be a model or know how to pose.
You just need to show up — and trust me to capture your body and your bump in a way that feels artful and natural.
I guide you through every part of the session, from what to wear and how to prepare, to gentle direction during the shoot, so you can feel at ease.
The goal isn’t perfection — it’s about documenting your pregnancy in a way that feels real, soulful and totally you.
Newborn
Those first months with your baby pass quickly — tiny fingers and toes, sleepy smiles, and the quiet, magical moments that make this stage so special.
Yes, you’re tired, but there’s so much beauty in this newborn haze, and it deserves to be captured.
I make the session easy and enjoyable. I come to your home, so you can stay in your space and stay comfortable. We work around your baby’s natural rhythm, with plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, and settling. Your little one doesn’t need to stay awake — in fact, the sleepy, peaceful moments are often the cutest.
Before the shoot, I provide guides to help you feel prepared and confident. During the session, I capture all their tiny details — but most importantly, I capture the love and connection between you, your partner, and your baby. These are the moments you’ll want to re-live.
The experience
1. Before the shoot: Choose maternity, newborn, or bump-to-babe, and I’ll guide you with outfit ideas, prep tips, and everything you need to feel relaxed and ready.
2. Shoot day: We work at your pace and keep the session calm, relaxed and fun.
3. Afterwards: Your gallery will be delivered online within 3 weeks. Every session includes a beautiful OnStone print delivered to your door.

I’m passionate about ensuring the memories we create don’t just live in a digital cloud, forgotten over time, but instead become tangible treasures that sit proudly on your walls —cherished for generations.

The sweet spot is 30–35 weeks — you’ll have a beautiful bump, but still feel comfortable enough to move. But every pregnancy is different, and I’ve photographed mums both earlier and later than that. If you’re feeling good and want to celebrate your bump, we’ll make it work whenever the timing feels right for you.
-
Newborn sessions work best in the first 2–6 weeks after birth. This is when babies are sleepy, curly, and easiest to pose in those classic newborn positions. However, I can photograph babies at any age. You won’t regret it!
-
Absolutely! The Bump to Babe package is designed to combine your maternity and newborn sessions into one cohesive gallery, creating a complete story of your journey from pregnancy to early parenthood.
-
No worries at all! I work around your baby’s natural rhythm, with plenty of time for feeding, settling, and breaks. Sleepy, peaceful moments are often the most beautiful, and I’ll capture all the love in between.
-
Maternity sessions can be underwater in a pool, in the ocean, or on land at your home or the beach. Newborn sessions are usually in the comfort of your home, so your baby can stay settled and you can relax.
-
That's literally what I'm here for! I'll guide you the whole way, show you reference images and even demonstrate poses if needed. Most people feel awkward at first - and then completely relax into it once we get going. Don't worry - I'm the first to feel uncomfortable in front of a lens, so I totally get it. I'll ensure you feel your best!
-
If you’re not a confident swimmer, these sessions aren’t the right fit for you — your comfort and safety always come first. But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered! I also offer dreamy on-land maternity sessions where we can create the same relaxed, glowing images (just without the splash).
-
Sure do! We can split payments however suits you.
You can pay via card or bank transfer — your choice. -
I’ll send you a detailed prep guide before the shoot with outfit ideas, tips, and everything you need to know. For newborn sessions, you don’t need to do anything special — just your normal home routine is perfect.

My partner and I had the most beautiful maternity photo session with Lilly and it was such a special experience. From the moment we met, she was warm, welcoming, and made us feel completely at ease. Lilly has such a natural eye and clearly loves what she does. She took her time to make sure we felt comfortable and that each shot truly captured the emotion and connection of the moment. I’m so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully. If you’re looking for someone who brings care, creativity, and heart into every frame, Lilly is it.

Lilly took newborn photos for both of our beautiful babies. We couldn't have been happier with how they've turned out. Moreover, Lilly's friendly nature and patience with our kids was incredible. She goes out of her way to make everyone feel comfortable and supported. Thanks for giving us the most beautiful memories, Lilly!
