Melbourne Family Photographer | Emma Pender Photography
 

At Emma Pender Photography, we understand the profound significance of capturing the enduring essence of true love for your children. Our goal is to freeze those fleeting moments that define your unique family story, creating timeless photographs that will serve as a cherished heirloom narrating your journey for generations to come.

Through our lens, we aim to encapsulate the deep bonds and emotions that form the foundation of your family's love. Whether it's a shared glance, a warm embrace, or a playful moment, we strive to immortalize these connections in images that will stand the test of time.

By entrusting us to document your family's love, you are investing in a legacy that will be treasured by your children and their children after them. Let us help you create a visual narrative of love, joy, and togetherness—captured in photographs that transcend time and speak volumes without words.

As a parent, there are moments when time seems to slip by too quickly. Those fleeting seconds when you wish you could hit pause and soak in the beauty of your children as they laugh, play, and grow right before your eyes. It's in these instances of stillness that the weight of your life's journey settles upon you, and you find yourself reflecting on the path that has brought you to this point.

Every smile, every hug, every shared experience becomes a treasure to hold onto tightly. The chaos of daily life fades into the background, and all that matters is the love and connection you have with your little ones. These moments of pause are the ones that etch themselves into your memory, serving as a reminder of what truly matters in life.

So, as you gaze upon your beautiful kids, feeling the warmth of their presence envelop you, take a mental snapshot to cherish. Let time stand still for just a moment longer, savoring the purity and innocence that radiates from them. For in these simple moments of togetherness, you'll find the true essence of happiness and fulfillment.

The First FEW Weeks with your newborn baby

During those initial weeks with your newborn, you navigate the delicate balance of sleep deprivation, fluctuating emotions and unfathomable love for your baby. The essence of motherhood is a magical journey filled with precious moments shared with your partner and little one. Bringing a baby into the family also strengthens the connection you have with your partner as you navigate the joys and challenges of raising a family together.

True love and joy overflow in every corner of your new life as a parent, bringing with it a sense of fulfillment and profound happiness that knows no bounds.

The sweet smell of a newborn baby is a delicate mixture of innocence and purity. It evokes feelings of warmth and tenderness, drawing loved ones closer to breathe in this precious aroma. This scent is a reminder of new beginnings and the miracle of life unfolding before us. The sweet smell of a newborn baby is a gift that fills the heart with love and gratitude, imprinting memories that last a lifetime.

How to prepare for your newborn session? | Emma Pender Photography

 

How to prepare for your session? 

Melbourne newborn photographer | Emma Pender Photography

What should I bring to my newborn session? 

Newborn sessions go for about 2-3 hours in general so there are some essential items that you’ll need to bring.

They are:

  • enough milk if you are bottle feeding. You don’t want to run out of this! Babies tend to feed a bit more during the session as their sleep is more disrupted.

  • Nappies

  • Dummy 

  • Snacks and drinks for mum and dad

How to encourage my sibling to be in the photos? 

Prior to the session, we recommend talking to your child about where you are going and what you’ll be doing. Always talk really positively about it. The more aware they are about the session, the better! 

I also find having a little surprise or treat for your child for after the session, to be really helpful 

 

How to prepare for the session? 

We highly recommend trying to feed your baby really well, just before the session. That way we should be able to go through all or nearly all the session without baby becoming unsettled. A lot of clients love our photos of babies posed in props and they need to be really sleepy to pose them in this way. 

Another tip is to try to keep baby awake for an hour before making your way to the session. 

And lastly, relax and enjoy it :)

Baby Adaline and her lovely parents Holly and Matt made the big trip across to Melbourne from western Victoria for her newborn session. It really is amazing and so appreciated that clients are happy to travel such long distances so that we can capture these gorgeous moments for them. Holly and Matt decided to go with the platinum package for their newborn session, which enabled them to receive beautiful photos of Adaline alone in props and also timeless photos as a family in our boho setting.

Last week, Emma Pender Photography had the privilege of documenting an incredibly meaningful newborn photography session with baby Pia and her parents. The atmosphere in the studio was filled with an overwhelming sense of love and happiness, resulting in a truly unforgettable experience. As Pia peacefully dozed, we carefully captured her delicate features and tiny fingers, preserving timeless memories that her family will hold dear for years to come. Pia's mother exuded a captivating radiance, exemplifying the pure splendor of motherhood and the unbreakable bond between mother and child. The studio session was brimming with tender moments, delicately capturing the essence of genuine love and the remarkable journey of motherhood. Each image from the session beautifully encapsulated the emotions and profound connection between Pia and her mother, ensuring that these precious moments will be cherished for a lifetime. We at Emma Pender Photography feel deeply honored to have played a part in this heartfelt and beautiful newborn session, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to continue capturing such precious moments for families.

When to do a newborn session | Emma Pender Photography

 

Why are newborn sessions recommended in the first 2 weeks?

 

I have so many enquiries from parents hoping to do a newborn session with their 8 week old baby so I thought I'd do a little blog on why we highly recommend doing the session in the first 14 days after birth. 
This is because mothers pass on a hormone called melatonin to their babies, but it declines around week three. Melatonin is a hormone that helps regulate sleep, therefore if a baby has more melatonin then they are more likely to sleep deeply during the session, which is essential for a lot of poses. For safety reasons, we don't like posing babies awake in buckets for example, as they need to be relaxed and moving around.
As it is such a short time frame after birth, I'd recommend booking in your newborn photographer prior to giving birth. This will be one less thing that you need to think about when you are sleep deprived with a newborn :)
If your baby is over 2 weeks of age already, please still get in contact as we still have had successful sessions til 4 weeks of age. For babies over 4 weeks of age, we recommend a more unposed session in our studio.

Melbourne Newborn Photographer | 5 Questions to Ask Your Newborn Photographer

 

5 Questions to Ask Your Newborn Photographer

With so many newborn photographers to choose from these days, it’s not easy to decide on who will capture your little bundle of joy! But, before you hire a photographer, make sure you ask these five questions to ensure that you’ll receive photos and an experience that you’ll treasure for years to come.

Newborn Photographer Question 1: What Experience Do You Have?

 

Every year there are more and more newborn photographers available to choose from but it is a job that requires years of practise, patience and expertise. An experienced newborn photographer will know about flattering lighting and posing, colour co-ordination along with the most important thing - keeping your baby safe!

 
Melbourne Newborn Photographer | Emma Pender Photography
Melbourne Newborn Photographer | Emma Pender Photography

Newborn Photographer Question 2: How Will You Keep My Baby Safe?

 

Newborns are fragile, and when you’re the first time mum, you want to know that your baby is safe throughout their session. It is essential that your newborn photographer has an assistant. Babies have a startle reflex and you just never know when they will flinch. This is why an experienced assistant is so important as they act as a spotter and second pair of eyes over your baby.

 
Melbourne Newborn Photographer | Emma Pender Photography
Melbourne Newborn Photographer | Emma Pender Photography




Newborn Photographer Question 3: How Much Time Will You Set Aside for the Session?

 

Photographing newborns is really unpredictable! Some babies just sleep throughout their session and others need a lot of time and feeding to calm them. This is why we only allow for one newborn session per day,: we don’t want to rush your session, we want you to feel relaxed as this will help your baby relax. However, on average the session will go for approximately 2-3 hours.

Melbourne Newborn Photographer | Emma Pender Photography

Newborn Photographer Question 4: May I See Some Examples of Your Work?

 

Most photographers have a certain style which should be clear on their website and social media. You should have a clear image in your head of what your photos will turn out like. Make sure you choose a photographer that is going to give you photos that you love!

Melbourne Newborn Photography | Emma Pender Photography

Newborn Photographer Question 5: What Props Do You Have on Hand?

 

An experienced newborn photographer will most likely have a vast array of props and accessories to choose from. In our case, we make a lot of our own bonnets, headbands and wooden props as we love creating new and beautiful accessories for our sessions. There are some things that we can’t make ourselves and we source them from some amazing vendors in the USA and UK. We just love the look of their props and can’t help ourselves buying more for our newborn sessions :)
