NATURAL MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER IN ROCKHAMPTON + YEPPOON
The photos you'll be so glad you didn't talk yourself out of.
Maternity portraits that hold the kicks, the excitement and becoming their mum.
You don't feel like yourself right now. Book anyway.
Swollen, tired, none of your clothes fitting right, not quite you. I know, because I felt exactly the same through all three of my pregnancies, and I have a handful of bathroom selfies to show for it.
Here’s what I know now that I couldn’t see then: you will look back at these photos and not believe how beautiful you were.
You won’t need to know how to pose or be anything other than exactly who you are. As a maternity photographer in Rockhampton and Yeppoon, I guide you the whole way. Your only job is to turn up and let me show you what I can already see.
To the mum who doesn’t feel like herself right now but books the session anyway: you will be so glad you did.
Don't wait until you feel ready.
“As someone who felt quite uncomfortable in my body during pregnancy, I was hesitant about booking a maternity session, but I’m so glad we did. Alice made me feel completely at ease and genuinely empowered. She has an incredible talent for making meaningful moments feel effortless and natural.”
HOLLY
It starts with you.
Before we pick a single outfit or location, we talk. Every session starts with a questionnaire, so I can get to know you and what you’re hoping for. If there’s something making you nervous, we’ll talk about that too. Mostly, I want to know what would make this feel like yours.
Because it’s different for everyone.
Maybe this is your last baby, and you’re trying to hold onto every detail of this final pregnancy, the one you know you’ll never do again.
Maybe it’s your first, and you’re not quite sure what to expect, but you already know how much you love this little person you haven’t met yet.
Or maybe this is your rainbow baby. And it’s not simple, is it. You’re looking forward to this little one, so deeply longed for, while still carrying the one you lost. This season holds both, the grief and the hope, and I won’t ask you to leave either at the door. We’ll honour the baby who isn’t here, and celebrate the one who is.
However you have landed here as a mum, these portraits are about your family and what matters most to you.
Come behind the scenes of a session.
The whole experience, from our first hello to artwork on the wall.
The newborn bundle: Your maternity session is one half of the story.
Every newborn package includes two sessions, and your maternity shoot is the loveliest way to spend the first.
We capture your bump now, then your newborn once they’ve arrived, and later you’ll see the whole story side by side.
(Prefer not to do maternity? You can choose a Fresh 48 in hospital plus a session at home instead.)
“The whole experience was a dream from start to finish. Alice kept checking in with us and guided us through the process, before and after our shoot. It really took away any doubts, fears and insecurities.”
FELICITY
Your baby's first book, made to be passed down.
Your favourite portraits become a fine art album, the story of how they began, printed and bound to museum quality.
Think of it as your baby’s first book, the one they’ll grow up flipping through, then hand to their own children one day. Made to last generations.
Now when I’m looking through our albums it gives me all the warm, fuzzy feelings. If you’re looking for someone incredibly talented, patient, and able to capture the most beautiful, genuine moments, she’s the one.”
When is the best time to schedule a maternity photoshoot?
The sweet spot for maternity sessions is between 28 and 32 weeks. Around this time, your bump is beautifully round, but you’re likely not feeling too uncomfortable just yet. You’ve still got the energy to move around, and we can take our time creating something really special — before the final countdown begins.
What should I wear for a maternity photoshoot?
Whatever feels most like you, and I’ll help you get there. Flowy dresses, knits that hug your bump, or even something more relaxed like jeans unbuttoned at the front with a soft button-up shirt — all of these photograph beautifully. I also love Bimby and Roy sets for a casual, feminine look.
I have a selection of dresses, cardigans and undergarments in my client closet that you can borrow too.
Can I include my partner or children in the maternity session?
Absolutely — in fact, I encourage it. Including your partner and kids helps tell the full story of your growing family. These sessions are a lovely chance to slow down and soak in the love and anticipation that surrounds this new chapter.
What if I don't feel comfortable in front of the camera?
That’s the most normal thing in the world, and it’s exactly what I’m here for. You won’t need to know how to pose, I guide you the whole way, and every mum I have worked with that felt hesitant in the beginning, was so glad they booked in the end.
Is the maternity session included with a newborn photoshoot booking?
Yes. Every newborn package is two sessions, and a maternity session can be one of them at no extra cost when you book your newborn session at the same time.
What's included, and what does it cost?
The session, styling help beforehand, and a design appointment where we turn your favourites into artwork. Most families invest between $1,500 and $3,000, and digital-only packages start at $795. This includes two sessions. Download my full price guide for full detail.
