Studio & Beach Logistics
Where is your studio located?
Studio located in Papamoa to serve families across Tauranga and Papamoa.
What do we need to bring?

Do you offer outdoor sessions?

Session Timing FAQs
When is the best time for maternity photos?
Between 28 and 36 weeks, when your bump is beautifully round but you still feel comfortable moving.
When should I book my newborn session?
During your second or third trimester. We hold a flexible placeholder spot on our calendar based on your due date.
How old should my baby be for the session?
Ideally within the first 6 days to 4 weeks for sleepy, curly portraits. Older babies (5 weeks+) are captured via our milestone sessions.
What if my baby cries or needs to feed?
Our sessions are entirely baby-led and unhurried. We build in plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and transitions.
Wardrobe & Styling
Do you provide outfits for everyone?
We supply dresses for mamas and wraps/outfits for newborns. Partners, siblings, and older babies supply their own clothing.
What should the rest of the family wear?
After booking, we email you a simple guide covering coordinated neutral palettes, fabric suggestions, and items to avoid.
Who supplies the cake and outfit for a Cake Smash?
Parents supply both. This ensures the cake safely meets your baby’s dietary needs and the outfit matches your style.
Pricing & Digitals
Are digital files included in the price?
Yes. We are a digital-only studio. Every collection includes high-resolution, edited digital images delivered via a private online gallery.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. We can split your collection total into custom weekly or monthly instalments leading up to your scheduled session date
