NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

capturing the magic

in slowing down &

savouring this

beautiful transition.

You don’t need to be anything other than what you are.


However your journey into parenthood is unfolding, there is beauty in the way you hold it, in your strength, your softness, and the love that already surrounds your baby.


That’s what I’m here to capture.


CORE PILLARS OF

MY BUSINESS

CONNECTION

I truly believe that the only way to honour your family & tell the right story - yours, is through connection.

Our connection & the way that you connect together. That is where the magic is.

COMMUNICATION

I am a true Gemini & love to talk! haha maybe too much. Communication is one of the strengths I like to behold & believe that both connection & vulnerability can happen unless we irst open up & communicate.

VULNERABILITY

Unless we are vulnerable & open, our connection will seem false & forced & so to will the images.

I will be there with my heart wide open. I hope that yours is too.

A TRANSITION OF BEAUTIFUL MAGIC..

BELOVED

beginnings

A gentle 45-minute session to celebrate your newest little love and this next chapter you’re stepping into.
It’s paced to support you, whether you’re pregnant, freshly postpartum, or finding your feet with a slightly older babe.

These sessions are all about connection and those little moments that are uniquely yours.
Perfect if you’re after a shorter maternity or newborn session outdoors, rather than at home.
Whether you missed those early weeks or simply want to wait until things feel a little more settled, this one’s for you.

Best suited for mamas from 30 weeks pregnant and babies between 4 weeks and 3 months old.

CAPTURING CHANGE + PASSING SEASONS WITH THOSE YOU LOVE MOST..

BELOVED

family

A woman and a baby lying down together, smiling and looking into each other's eyes during their newborn session on the Gold Coast.

A session to welcome your newest love and honour the beautiful shift in your family.
These sessions move gently, always at your baby’s pace, giving space for cuddles, feeds, and whatever the moment brings.

It’s about slowing down, soaking it all in, and letting me in, just enough, for your story to unfold naturally.
The more I learn about your family, the more I can reflect your connection back to you in images that feel true.

Captured just as you are, in those early hazy days…best booked within the first month to catch the squish, the sleepiness (fingers crossed!), and everything in between. But can also be anytime that suits your growing family.

THE GREATEST CHANGE FOR YOUR BODY + HEART..

journey

Black and white photo of a baby lying on a pillow, wearing a knitted sweater, looking slightly away with a calm expression. In-home newborn photography Gold Coast.

The journey from Maiden to Mother is a well told story & for good reason.

It’s life-changing. Transformative. Raw, beautiful, and completely your own.
You're growing a human (which, let’s be honest, is nothing short of incredible).

These combined sessions are for mamas who want to honour it all, the stretch, the anticipation, the glow (or the sweat), and those sacred early days once your baby arrives. A celebration of what your body has done, and the family you’re building.

Two sessions. One powerful story.

And a little bonus? It’s more cost-effective than booking separately.

All I can say you will not be disappointed with Hayley’s work.

She creates magic! I am the most awkward person in front of the camera, and she made me feel so at easy and comfortable straight away. I cherish the beautiful photos she took of our family! Thank you again Hayley!

Path i’ve always followed - my own

Two black hands exchanging or holding gold shimmering star-like particles against a dark background.

I’ve been searching my whole life for what family connection is meant to feel like.

It was actually one of the driving forces into becoming a family photographer. If I could see it & capture it, could I feel it myself?

You betcha.

I have felt so much over the past decade while capturing beautiful families celebrating some of the most cherished turning points in their lives. Love has radiated out of these sessions & filled my cup up while on my search of what it truly means to be connected. I’ve felt so much joy & also sorrow as the images tell your stories of life & loss.

These stories helped me along my own journey to my own family as I became a solo mum to my little girl Neve back in 2021. Now being submerged fully in motherhood myself, my photography has taken on it’s own change & connection.
