For the beautifully fleeting moments you never want to forget.
For the beautifully fleeting moments you never want to forget.


And it's also the most beautiful story you'll ever tell.
Whether you're growing a baby, raising a wild-hearted toddler, or simply trying to freeze this beautiful, chaotic chapter of life—I'm here to help you pause long enough to remember it.
I'm Petrina. Mother of three. Snack-bringer. Baby-whisperer. And I've been capturing families, bumps, newborns, and giggling toddler for over a decade across Australia, Italy, and now the UK.
The photos we create won't be cookie cutter. They'll be yours. Build around your style, your pace, your family, and your season of life
28-34 weeks
5-15 days old
3 - 9 months
5 - 10 months
All Ages

You're growing a human. You're tired. You might not feel camera-ready. But trust me-this is a moment worth capturing.
We'll shoot around 28-24weeks, when your bump is in full bloom and you're (hopefully) not too uncomfortable. You can come solo, bring your partner , or include the whole family. We'll style the session together - from romantic to minimal - and you'll have access to beautiful, bump friendly wardrobe options.
Studio or outdoors | Flexible styling | Ideal in spring/summer
Book at least 4 weeks ahead (especially for Saturdays)

Tiny fingers. Sleep stretches. That just-born smell.
This window closes fast but I'm here to help you bottle it up.
Best scheduled for between 5-15 days old, these sessions are calm, cozy, and completely baby-led. I have all the props, outfits, accessories, and posing cushions to keep your little one comfy. All you need to do is show up and breathe.
In-studio recommended | No special prep needed
Book during your second trimester to secure availability.


That baby-in-arms stage? It flies.
These sessions (ideal for 3-9 months) celebrate the quiet bond between a mother and child. Warm, simple, and tender.
We keep things slow, skin-to-skin if your comfortable, and the studio is heated so even bare bums are happy.
Studio | All wardrobe included
Perfect for post maternity, pre-sitter stage

Around 5–10 months, the personality pops and the wiggles begin.
These playful sessions capture your baby’s emerging curiosity—those big eyes, drooly grins, and wobbly sitting poses.
All outfits and props are provided (and yes, I clean them thoroughly). You can choose studio or outdoor in warmer months.
Studio | Very fun, lots of giggles
Great for milestones before their first birthday


You wrangle the kids. I’ll capture the magic.
Family sessions are less about posing, more about playing. Think tickles, cuddles, chasing toddlers, laughing until someone snorts. You’ll walk away with images that feel like your family—not a forced version of it.
Studio or outdoor | Bring the grandparents, too
Perfect for any season, age or excuse

Tailored guidance and a calm, relaxed pace...
I’m not just here to press a button—I’m here to create something real with you.
I’ll help you feel confident.
I’ll make your kids laugh.
I’ll bring the patience and the snacks.
And I’ll create a space where every member of the family (even the reluctant partners) feels safe to show up as they are.
Each session is designed with you, not just for you—and no two shoots are ever the same.


"You can recognize a true professional not only because they do a great job, but because they manage to carve a precious memory inside you that lasts a lifetime. Petrina is a wonderful person you can talk to like a friend, and on several occasions she has managed to capture unique moments in time with my little girl. Since my baby was only a few days old, we have trusted her, and I must say there hasn’t been a single moment when Deva didn’t have fun. I will never thank you enough"
Petrina is simply exceptional! She welcomes you into her studio with a radiant smile. She is professional and attentive to the smallest details. She manages to capture and preserve wonderful moments during such a magical time in the life of an expecting or new mother.
