In Bloom 

This is such a special time and you want to be able to look back one day and remember.

I aim to showcase your pregnancy glow all while making you feel comfortable throughout the session. I know the aches and pains of pregnancy can make you feel like a photoshoot is the last thing you want, but trust me when I say, you won’t regret having memories you can look back over and over.

I’ve got you...

  • I would recommend 28-34 weeks so your baby bump is nice and round and you’re still comfortable.

  • Yes of course but we will mainly focus on you or you can choose to do a solo maternity session.

  • One hour before sunset, golden hour the best time for that glowy beautiful light.

  • 1 hour, sometimes a little longer if you’re up for some blue hour goodness.

  • If you want to indulge you can, my recommendation is for soft natural makeup that looks like you. Also, check their reschedule policy just in case we need to reschedule due to bad weather.

Newborn

That newborn bubble, the smell of their hair, the touch of their skin, even their sweet little cry.

I think I can speak for every parent when I say that it goes in the blink of an eye. The days and nights are long but the years really are so short.

Forget about bouncing back and having it all together, this is the perfect time to capture your little bundle of joy even if the photos are just for you and your family.

Tiny Toes

I’ve got you…

  • I block out a period in my diary around your baby’s due date.

  • Less than two weeks so they are still sleepy and easier to pose without waking them up.

  • In my Bentleigh East studio. My sessions are done in the morning around 10am and usually go for 2 hours.

  • I will provide you with a detailed guide on how to prepare your baby for them to get in a deep sleep. Preparations starts at home, and it’s totally ok if baby doesn't want to sleep, I can still capture all the cuteness.

  • You are welcome to include your immediate family members.

 Welcome 

 Baby Bundle

   Hello Baby 

The sweetest package bundled together to make sure you don’t miss a single moment.

Capturing both your maternity glow and those newborn days so you can look back on your journey all the way through to earth side.

Our best value bundle, with a complimentary video montage included.

I’ve got you…

  • Bundling with the In Bloom package will save you $600 and bundling with the Ultimate will also save you $600.

  • Yes you can but the ‘newborn’ session needs to be done within 6 months of birth.

  • Sorry, I do not offer bundling on the smaller packages.

All the Love    

Imagine a family session that’s actually fun .. everyone cuddled up and being themselves. I know it can be a juggle to prepare for a photoshoot with kids but they are only young once and these memories are truely worth capturing.

Let’s remove the stress of a family session, just be yourselves, have fun and I’ll come along for the ride.

  • My job is to create a fun and safe environment. It's totally normal for kids to run off and not want to participate (I've got two of my own and have been in your shoes several times). Stay clam, bond with your children and I’ll do the rest.

  • At different times in the year the sun sets earlier so you could time your shoot to suit your routine.

    Alternatively, they could have a later nap/sleep in the car and arrive fresh for the shoot. Often I find that they are so distracted by the new environment and have so much fun they forget it's bedtime.

    Bring lots of dry snacks and maybe treat them for ice-cream afterwards. What I did with my kids is I bought them a present, wrapped it up and told them they get to open it after the shoot, worked a treat.

  • We'll find a suitable time.

  • Due to the size of the space of the Studio, I can only photograph small families with 1-2 children.

  • Yes I do, this is an additional $50 per extra family member.

I’ve got you…

Couples

For the loved up souls wanting to capture some special moments .. just the two of you.

From a beach walk to an in-home session — whatever you feel most comfortable doing, I’m here to be your non-awkward third wheel.

Let’s shoot some memories that you’ll want to print off and hang on your walls.

You Two    

I’ve got you…

  • We'll find a suitable time.

  • Yes of course, I’ll guide you every step of the way. By the end of it you’ll be so wrapped up in your love that its truely authentic.

  • We can certainly discuss this and we can bring your vision to life.

  • 1 hour or more (I do get excited and shoot until its dark).

  • 1 hour before sunset.

 Are we a 

 good fit?

    “Thank you so much Martina for providing us with memories for a lifetime.

    Martina did an amazing job capturing the most beautiful and natural photos of our family of 4 and newborn. Martina was professional, patient and made us feel comfortable for our first photoshoot as a family. The turnaround time was so quick and I am so glad we decided to book her in.
