Newborn photography – Pakenham
Let me make these moments last forever
What if you could freeze this moment?
There is nothing like that fresh baby smell, those teeny tiny fingers and toes, and oh my goodness the little sounds they make.
There is nothing more precious than your newborn baby. The perfect little human you dreamed of, and grew for 9 months.
Every moment spent with them is so precious. Those first weeks go by in such a blur. Your baby will grow and change so quickly.
Let’s capture that feeling, the precious first moments, and all the tiny details.

“I am blown away with the photos she took of my son. Robyn was so welcoming, she was so gentle and caring with our little boy and made sure he was always comfortable. She was able to capture the love between all of us and these photos I’ll be able to treasure forever and ever, I can’t thank her enough for the job she has done.
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou”

Newborn baby Photography in Pakenham, South East Melbourne.
Newborn baby photography sessions take place in my light-filled Pakenham studio, located in South-East Melbourne.
My sessions are baby-led; meaning there is no putting baby into props or awkward, unnatural positions, and we allow plenty of time for cuddles, feeding and changing as needed.
The studio is kept nice and warm for the session, as this will keep your baby comfortable and help to settle them into those sweet natural poses. We have a collection of neutral wraps, blankets and outfits for styling the session, as well as a client closet with beautiful gowns for Mums to wear during their session.
If you are interested in Robyn coming to your hospital in Melbourne to capture your baby’s first few days of life; click for information about Fresh48 session.
If you know your due date, then now is the time to book your baby’s photography session. We only take a limited number of bookings each month to allow flexibility for those little ones who like to make an early entrance or are fashionably late.
The ideal time for capture your newborn baby’s’ portraits is when your baby is 5-17 days old. During this time they are sleepy and like to be in those sweet curly positions. We will capture those precious details that will change so quickly as they grow. That doesn’t mean we can’t capture your baby if they are older than two weeks, it just means they may be more alert and less sleepy. This can actually make for great images of your little one as they begin to engage with the world around them and start to smile!
The health and safety of your baby is the highest priority. Your baby will be supported into natural positions, we do not put baby in any uncomfortable poses. The studio is kept nice and warm to keep your precious little bundle snug at all times.
Robyn is up to date with immunisations, such as whooping cough and Covid-19. We take your and your baby’s health seriously. If the situation arises where Robyn is unwell, your session will be rescheduled. As with yourselves, if someone in your household in unwell we will reschedule.
Newborn photography sessions are $150. The session fee is due at the time of booking to reserve your place on our calendar. Your session fee includes your pre-session planning and styling advice, your photography session, access to studio wardrobe, image processing, and a Viewing and Design appointment at the studio to view and purchase your images.
Digital files, prints and products are ordered separately after you view the finished images from your session.
The session fee is separate from any print or image package so you are not locked into any particular package and can decide how many images you want after seeing them, and deciding how you want to display them in your home after viewing our sample products. See products and pricing options available here.
