Newborn sessions in the first four weeks. Family sessions for the season you're in right now. Maternity sittings while you wait, cake smashes for first birthdays, and every milestone in between — all unposed, all at your place or somewhere you love, all delivered within two weeks.
Every session includes the whole family, with no per-person charge and nothing required of you.
Explore my packagesHis images of our newborn were beautiful!! He was so patient and no request was too much. We will 100% use Deep in the future.
Absolutely loved my mini photoshoot — each photo was stunning. After 10 years I finally have photos of my son and I for the walls.
Made the whole experience so enjoyable. The turnaround is super quick and the photos are very high quality and professional.
Welcoming and nice, no fuss — just some lovely relaxed family photos. We got what we wanted super quick.
Super friendly and made everything feel easy and relaxed. Photos came out really natural — exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend.

Everything families usually ask before booking. Anything else, just get in touch.
Ideally while you're still pregnant — most families book in their second or third trimester to secure a spot. The session itself happens any time within the first 4 weeks after birth, and I keep the exact date flexible around your baby's actual arrival.
Yes. I photograph families in their own homes across Frankston, Chelsea, Seaford, Langwarrin, Mt Eliza and most of South-East Melbourne. Travel is included — there's no extra charge for coming to you.
We spend around 1.5 to 2 relaxed hours at your place. There are no elaborate props or forced poses — I photograph feeds, cuddles, naps and all the small details while working entirely at your baby's pace. Pauses for feeding and settling are always built in.
Not at all. I work with the natural light from your windows and usually only need two or three spots — a bed, a couch, the nursery. The rest of the house can look exactly like a house with a newborn in it.
Soft, simple and comfortable works best — think warm neutrals and gentle tones rather than big logos or bright fluoro. Once you book, I'll send through a short guide with easy outfit ideas for the whole family.
Your fully edited gallery is delivered within 2 weeks of your session, through a private online gallery you can download and share with family.
Sessions are grouped by how much time you want together. Glimpse is from $195 (30 minutes, 10 edited images), Golden from $250 (60 minutes, 20 edited images) and Gathered from $395 (90 minutes, 30+ edited images). Bloom, the bump-to-baby bundle of two 90-minute sessions, is from $595. Glimpse and Golden can both be upgraded to the full gallery afterwards — $75 on Glimpse, $50 on Golden — and Gathered and Bloom include it. Full details are in the sessions & pricing section above.
For dietary and allergen reasons, parents provide their own cake — that way you know exactly what your little one is eating. Any cake works, though a simple single-tier cake with soft icing smashes best. Everything else — the setup, the patience and a hand with the clean-up — is on me.
Completely normal — and honestly expected. As a dad of two I've seen it all, and some of my favourite images come from the in-between moments. We simply pause for feeds and cuddles whenever needed. There's no time pressure.
Absolutely. Family sessions cover every stage — toddlers, school kids, new siblings, grandparents. Whatever season your family is in, that's what we document.
I'd love to hear about your family. Fill in the form and I'll be in touch within 24 hours. Currently booking Glimpse, Golden, Gathered and Bloom sessions — and if you're not sure which fits, just say so and I'll help you choose.
