Cranbourne East · Casey · South-East Melbourne
Think of the album in the cupboard at your parents' place: the photos aren't perfect, but the feeling is. Love and joy, smiles and frowns, everyday moments just as they happened.

See sessions and pricesHis 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.
My son was at ease with you instantly and it shows in the photos.
Welcoming and nice, no fuss, just some lovely relaxed family photos. We got what we wanted super quick.
Right away he set a relaxed atmosphere and made our kids laugh and allowed them to be themselves.

Everything families usually ask before booking. Anything else, just get in touch.
Whenever suits you. There's no set time for newborn photos: at two weeks or twelve, it's just a different phase, and they're still your little newborn. If you're still pregnant, book now and I'll pencil in a date around your due date that moves with your baby. If they've already arrived, get in touch whenever you're ready.
I’m based in Cranbourne East and photograph families in their own homes across Cranbourne, Clyde North, Berwick, Narre Warren, Officer, Pakenham, Frankston, Seaford, Chelsea, Langwarrin, Mornington and most of South-East Melbourne. Travel is included. There's no extra charge for coming to you.
Gathered gives us 90 minutes at your place, with feeds and settling built in. 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 $295 (up to 30 minutes, 10 edited images), Golden $395 (up to 60 minutes, 20 edited images) and Gathered $450 (90 minutes, with the full gallery). Bloom, the bump-to-baby bundle of two 90-minute sessions, is $795. Glimpse and Golden can both be upgraded to the full gallery afterwards ($175 on Glimpse, $175 on Golden), and Gathered and Bloom include it. Every session is laid out side by side on the packages and prices page.
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, or if you already know which session you want, book online and pick a date yourself. Currently booking Glimpse, Golden, Gathered and Bloom sessions, and weddings. If you're not sure which fits, just say so and I'll help you choose.
