Frequently asked questions - newborn sessions

When should I book my newborn session?

The best time to book is while you’re still pregnant — ideally in your second or early third trimester. I’ll pencil in your due date and possible shoot date. Once baby arrives, we’ll lock in a session date within the first 5–14 days.

What if my baby doesn’t arrive on time?

Babies rarely arrive right on schedule! I only take a limited number of sessions per month to allow flexibility, so we’ll adjust the date if needed, no worries at all.

How old should my baby be for the session?

Newborn sessions are ideal between 5–14 days old, when babies are still super sleepy and naturally curled. But if your little one is a few weeks old, that’s okay! I’ve worked with many older newborns and still capture beautiful, soulful images.

Can siblings and parents be in the photos?

Absolutely. These early days are about your whole family, and I encourage sibling and parent images. These are often the most cherished frames in the gallery.

What should we wear?

Simple, neutral tones always work beautifully — think soft creams, whites, and earthy tones. I’ll provide a style guide and help you choose pieces that feel natural and timeless.

What if my baby cries or doesn’t settle?

Please don’t worry, I follow your baby’s lead the entire time. We’ll take breaks for feeds, cuddles, or whatever your little one needs. This is a judgment-free, slow-paced space.

Frequently asked questions - maternity sessions

When is the best time to book my maternity session?

The sweet spot is around 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully round and you’re still comfortable moving around.

Can my partner or older children join in?

Yes, absolutely! This session is about your journey through motherhood, and your loved ones are a huge part of that story. I do also offer solo maternity sessions should you prefer sweet moments between you and your baby to be!

What should I wear?

For me keeping your bare bump is always best, but you will receive a style guide to help you feel confident and comfortable, as well as dress the family accordingly.

What kind of locations do you shoot at?

We can head outdoors into golden fields, forests, or coastal areas. We can also keep things calm and cozy with a relaxed in home or studio session. It’s all about what feels right for you.

I feel a little nervous in front of the camera — will you guide me?

Absolutely. I gently guide you into relaxed poses while focusing on natural movement and connection. There’s no pressure to perform, just be yourself, and I’ll take care of the rest.

Frequently asked questions - milestone sessions

What is a sitter session?

A sitter session is for babies who can sit confidently but aren’t quite crawling yet — usually around 6 to 9 months old. It’s the perfect time to capture those gummy smiles, baby rolls and curious little expressions.

How does a cake smash session work?

Your session begins with sweet, simple portraits of your little one, followed by some playful shots with balloons. Then comes the messy fun — the cake smash! We’ll finish with a bubbly bath and cozy towelling off, capturing every joyful, candid moment as you celebrate this special milestone.

When should I book a cake smash?

I recommend scheduling your cake smash session around 11–12 months so you can have your gallery ready before your little one’s first birthday or party.

Do you provide the cake?

You’re welcome to bring your own cake, or I can recommend trusted local bakers who can create a simple, baby-safe cake to suit your session style.

What should my baby wear?

I offer a few timeless outfit options or you can bring something special. Think soft rompers, neutral colours, or simple birthday outfits. I’ll also send you a guide with outfit tips before your session.

Can we include family or sibling photos?

Absolutely! I can include a few quick family or sibling images before the milestone portion begins, just let me know in advance.

Where do your milestone sessions take place?

Milestone sessions are held at my cozy home-studio in Littlehampton, Adelaide Hills. It is a warm & neutral, minimally styled space where your little one is the centre of attention.

Frequently asked questions - motherhood sessions

What age is best for a motherhood session?

There’s no right or wrong age, these sessions are all about connection. Whether your baby is 3 weeks, 3 months, or 3 years old, this is about you and your children just as you are right now.

Where do these sessions take place?

We can shoot in the comfort of your own home, my natural light studio in Littlehampton, Adelaide Hills, or outdoors in a natural setting. I’ll help you choose a location that feels most authentic to your story.

What should I wear?

Think neutral colours, flowing fabrics, and natural textures that complement your connection. I will also send you a style guide before your session.

Can I include all my children in the session?

Absolutely! These sessions are for celebrating you and your children, no matter how many. We'll keep things relaxed and capture the unique rhythm of your family.

What if my children don’t cooperate?

Don’t worry, I’ve worked with many little ones and I keep the session calm and play-based. There’s no pressure to perform. We’ll go with their flow and capture genuine moments in between.

The Art of Play - Candid Family Photography

“LIFE'S MOST BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES ARE OFTEN THE ONES THAT FELT SMALL AT THE TIME."

Honest, Joyful Images of Your Family Just Being You

These are the days of muddy hands, wild giggles, and endless wonder. Inspired by my own motherhood journey, "The Art of Play" sessions are all about embracing the beautiful chaos of parenting — the laughter, the connection, the in-between moments you’ll one day miss.

Instead of stiff poses, we focus on play, activity, and natural interaction. Whether your little ones are chasing bubbles, exploring the forest, or dancing barefoot in the grass, I’ll capture it all with a gentle, documentary-style approach that lets your family shine.

Let’s tell your story through the lens of love and play.

You’ll receive

• A session that feels more like an adventure than a photoshoot

• Real moments of connection, joy, and childhood magic

• A heartfelt gallery of storytelling images that grow more meaningful over time

• A relaxed, pressure-free experience for the whole family

Frequently asked questions - playfull family sessions

What kind of activities do we do during the session?

Every session is unique! We can play at the beach, go on a little walk, bake some cookies, painting, go to your local park, or simply play at home. I gently guide things while letting your kids lead the way. I will help set the location based on your family dynamic and what your kids enjoy doing and naturally shine.

What age is this best suited for?

These sessions are ideal for families with toddlers and young children, but they work beautifully for all ages. The goal is to document your real family dynamic, just as it is.

What should we wear?

I recommend comfortable, coordinating (not matching) outfits in soft, neutral tones. Once you book, I’ll send a styling guide to make it easy, and fun!

Will we get any “looking at the camera” shots?

I’ll always try to sneak in a few classic shots. But the heart of these sessions lies in the natural, in-between moments that truly tell your story.

My child is shy/active/chaotic — will this work for us?

Absolutely. These sessions are designed for real kids being real kids. There’s no need to sit still or behave perfectly, we embrace the energy, the silliness, and the beauty of your child just as they are. The goal is to capture them and your family connection, as they are.

Will we be in the photos too?

Absolutely, these sessions are all about connection. As you snuggle, play, and love on your little one, I’ll gently capture those natural, heartfelt moments between you. Because you’re such an important part of their story too.

What if my kids don’t do well at sunrise or sunset?

That’s completely okay — I totally get it! While golden hour offers beautiful light, it doesn’t always suit little body clocks. We can still create gorgeous, softly lit images with earlier morning or late afternoon sessions, when your little ones are at their happiest. It’s all about finding the right balance between dreamy light and happy, relaxed kiddos.

Ready to Capture Your Story?

Whether you already know the session you want or you’re not sure where to start, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s create something truly meaningful — together.

"Nina captured me and my daughter beautifully in a maternity shoot recently. We did a couple of outfit changes and never felt rushed and she wanted to make sure we captured the photos that were important to me. She was so patient with our little girl and the photos were just beautiful. I love how some of the simple photos can look so amazing, you are so talented Nina! I highly recommend any expecting mumma to get these photos done to celebrate pregnancy, a thousand times better than home mirror selfies!!"
