Maternity Photography: Celebrate the Beginning
A growing family is something to celebrate, and despite the demands and challenges that always come with bearing a child, the beginning is something you’ll be happy to look back on and have captured. At this delicate time in your family’s life, rest assured that Simon James is here to document the undeniable glow of welcoming a new addition to the family while prioritising the mother’s safety and comfort throughout the shoot. With Simon James Photography, you’ll always have gorgeous pictures that will remind you of every important chapter of your family life.
For the perfect “bump” to photograph, around 32-36 weeks into the pregnancy is the recommended time for a photoshoot, especially if you’re still undecided about when to have your family photoshoot. If you’re past that range, don’t worry, because Simon James Photography makes sure that you look great and that, more than anything, what cuts through clearest in your pictures is your family’s joy.
Newborn Photography: The First Days
There’s nothing as precious as a newborn’s first days of life. To them, everything they see, smell, taste, and hear is new. That wonder and curiosity lend a kind of radiance and unfiltered joy that jumps out of any photo. Simon James understands that there are few chapters that pass by as quickly as a newborn child’s very first ones. For many parents, these first days are the moments you’ll always want to remember and, at times, relive. With Simon James Photography, you can capture those large, round eyes, that toothless smile, and that small, precious life with a family photoshoot that will last a lifetime. Simon James can capture these beautiful first 4 weeks for you in the comfort of your own home.

Tips for a Relaxed Photography Session
Stressing about your family photos? You’re not alone. That’s why Simon is here to ensure the experience is enjoyable and straightforward for everyone, whether it’s the kids, parents, grandparents, or extended family.
Here’s a bit of advice to help you prepare for your family photoshoot
- Don’t worry about the perfect outfits. Although neutral, soft tones without logos tend to photograph best, personal style always comes first. Wear what you like, and what expresses you best.
- Let the kids be kids. Some of the best moments happen when kids are doing their own thing. Let that infectious energy come into the picture.
- Select a location that holds significance for you and your family. That connection comes through in the picture and makes for a wonderful image to look back on.
- Relax and enjoy the process. Simon has worked with hundreds of Melbourne families, and every challenge is part of the magic.
