3 Reasons Why You Should Take Maternity Photos | Emma Pender Photography
Why every mumma to be should do a maternity photo shoot
1. To relive what it was like to be pregnant
Everyone tells you, that once your baby is born, the time flies away and what seemed like an eternity of being pregnant; will be a distant memory. Capturing the moment in a maternity session is a beautiful way of being able to look back in years to come and remember those gorgeous little kicks that you once felt.
2. Have an reason to get all dolled up
I think we’d be lying if we said that pregnancy makes you feel absolutely glamorous. I still haven’t forgotten about the constant reflux…yuck! But I was determined to get dressed up with my daughter and have our maternity photos and I’m so glad I did. A lot of time you may feel like wearing the most comfortable clothing that you own but a maternity session is a perfect excuse to get your hair and make up done and look stunning. If you don’t have a dress of your own that you’d like to wear; don’t worry as we have a large variety of gowns for you to choose from. . A maternity session allows you to appreciate your beauty and strength and to remind yourself of how absolutely stunning you are.
3. Capturing the journey with your partner
One of the most asked questions that I receive is ‘Can my partner be in the photos?’ and the answer is ‘OF COURSE’! They are hugely encouraged to come along to the maternity session as some of the most gorgeous photos are of the little interactions between the couple. Whether it’s your first, second or third pregnancy, being present in the photos is a special way of capturing the change in your relationship and the anticipation of parenthood.

Questions for your newborn photographer | Melbourne Newborn Photographer
Frequently Asked Questions
1. At what age do you prefer to photograph newborn sessions?
Most professional newborn photographers know that babies are most ‘womb-like’ in the first 2 weeks of life. That means that the ideal time for a newborn session is generally when a baby is 5-12 days old.
The main reason that I like to photograph babies within the first 12 days is that newborns sleep a lot – typically up to 17 to 18 hours a day. Many of the poses I do require that baby be in a deep sleep. Older babies tend to be more awake and squirm around which makes posing difficult.
Having said that, every baby is different. You can get a 5 day old baby that is fussy and wide awake or a 18 day old baby that sleeps like an dream. It all just depends on the baby. Babies are never too old to be photographed, however the posing and expectations may change, but regardless of the age, you will receive gorgeous images from the session for you to cherish forever.
While I will photograph a baby at almost any age, I still recommend you book as soon as possible in order to make sure you have the option of those cute poses in props. We hate turning people away because they didn’t realise that newborn were photographed so early
2. How long have you been working as a newborn photographer?
Many people who have children feel like they would be well suited to work with newborns since they have had babies of their own. But newborn photographers will tell you that every newborn is different and you need a lot of patience to get beautiful photographs of babies that are unsettled. Having being in the business for 5 years now and having photographed over 400 newborns, we have acquired the skills to pacify a colicky and unsettled baby. Good newborn photographers are patient, kind, and gentle with your baby.
3. Do you provide props?
Scrolling through Instagram or Facebook, you can easily see how popular props have become. If this is the style of photography that you are after, make sure you ask your photographer whether they provide the props. Our bonnets and headbands in particular are very unique as we handmade them for our own business but also for newborn photographers all over the world.
4. Do you have a studio or do you travel to our house?
Professional newborn photographers may have a retail studio, a home studio, or they may travel to your home. Beautiful images can be created in any of those settings and one is not necessarily better than the others, however the style of photography may be different depending on where it takes place. Our set up and prop collection is immense and therefore we don’t travel to homes.
5. Do you have an assistant at the session?
Not all newborn photographers will have an assistant, some will ask a parent to help them during the session. We personally prefer to work together with Emma as the photographer and Toni as the assistant. As we are both very experienced, we know how to pose and spot baby in props to ensure beautiful photographs but also done safely.
