Pregnancy and those first weeks with your baby are two of the most magical (and fleeting) chapters in your life. Having them both documented means you’ll never forget the anticipation, joy, and love that surrounded your growing family.
If you’re looking for a newborn and maternity combo session in Cairns, you’re choosing a beautiful and natural way to tell the full story — from bump to baby — with one consistent style and photographer you trust.
What Is a Newborn and Maternity Combo Session?
A newborn and maternity combo session is exactly what it sounds like: two separate photo sessions, booked together as one package. (You receive a $50 discount for doing this)
•Maternity Session: Usually around 28-34 weeks, capturing your pregnancy glow, excitement, and connection with your partner or family. (Or choose to do it alone if you prefer). Don’t worry if you have already missed these dates, I have photographed women the day before birth!
•Newborn Session: Typically within the first 5-14 days after birth, capturing those fresh, snuggly newborn moments at home.
By booking both at once, you ensure a seamless experience and a consistent look in your images, making it perfect for creating albums, wall galleries, or keepsake boxes. (Don’t worry, I can help you with those too).

Why Book Both Together in Cairns?
Booking a newborn and maternity combo session in Cairns means:
•Consistency: Same photographer, editing style, and storytelling approach.
•Better Value: Combo packages are more cost-effective than booking sessions separately.
•Ease: One booking, one contract, one person who already knows your vision.
•Connection: I get to know you during your maternity session, which makes your newborn session even more relaxed and natural.
My Approach to Combo Sessions
I specialise in in-home, natural, and playful photography, capturing real smiles, soft moments, and the tiny details you’ll want to remember forever.
For both maternity and newborns, I come to you, so your session feels calm, baby-led, and stress-free. With maternity you can choose a lifestyle in-home session or a classic and timeless maternity style – even including a fashion flair!

When you book your combo session with me, you’ll receive:

When to Book Your Combo Session
To secure your preferred dates, it’s best to book your newborn and maternity combo session in Cairns during your second trimester. This gives us time to plan your maternity session for the perfect stage of pregnancy and ensures I can hold a newborn date around your due date.
