Back in December, I got to photograph my big sis who was pregnant with her first little bubba! We traveled out to a beautiful place near Seymour, how pretty are these hills in the distance? She seriously looks so amazing for 38 weeks pregnant!

When should I make a newborn booking?
We only take a certain amount of bookings per month so we recommend booking as early as possible during your pregnancy to ensure availability.
When is the best time to photograph newborns?
For our style of photography we recommend doing the newborn session in the first 12 days after birth.

Welcoming a new baby into the family | Emma Pender Photography
Time is such a thief
What I would do to have photos like this with my two little ones?! photos that show just how loved and small baby once was. Welcoming a new baby into the family is the most amazing experience and we need to document these special moments before they are distant memories. Time is such a thief
What to expect at a maternity session? | Emma Pender Photography
What to expect at a maternity session?
Maternity sessions will me are aimed to be enjoyable, relaxed, with no stress what so ever! I don’t expect anyone to know what do in front of the camera and not everyone enjoys having their photo taken. But I’m there to help ease you through each step.
Are children and partners included in the session?
Yes definitely!! I thoroughly encourage that they are in the photos so that when baby is old enough, they’ll be able to see this special moment before they entered the world.
When should you do the session?
I recommend doing the session at around 30-34 weeks of pregnancy, while your tummy is nice and round, but before it becomes more painful and tiring, closer to your due date.
Maternity sessions are held every day of the week, towards sunset time, at a quiet location in Sunbury or Macedon Ranges.

Shanai's Maternity Session
Last week, we had the pleasure of meeting Shanai for her maternity session. Recently, we've purchased so many new dresses for our client wardrobe and Shanai was nice enough to let us photograph her so we can show the dresses in use. She looked absolutely stunning in everything! And how nice is this spot in Sunbury! You get the variety of gorgeous long grass and also the hills behind the rocks.

Just look at these two! Gorgeous couple, inside and out
We have a vast selection of dresses and the majority don’t get chosen very often. So we decided to run a model call to photograph our beautiful dresses. Now our clients will be able to see how pretty they look in use and how they fit.
We’re also going to have one of movement calls at a new spot. After lots of scouting, we finally found something suitable. It’ll be perfect for those looking for a forest setting
Can’t wait to show you some from that session!
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.
