Photography
Photographs for the waiting — quiet, powerful, and full of promise.
Maternity photography captures a quiet in-between — where life is changing, stretching, softening, and growing in ways you can’t quite put into words. Maternity sessions are about honouring this season gently: the way your hands rest on your belly, the curve that carries your child, the stillness before everything shifts.
These sessions are best photographed between 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully defined and you’re still feeling comfortable. They can take place outdoors across Victoria at golden hour, or in the calm of my Doreen studio — not about posing perfectly, but about remembering who you were right before you became someone’s mother.

Rochelle captured my maternity session so beautifully that my husband and I asked her to photograph our new family with our 10-week-old and 4-year-old dog. What could have been chaos felt seamless and effortless. She has a true gift for photography, and to boot, she was able to sooth a fussy baby and a slightly anxious mama. If you want someone who captures life’s most precious moments beautifully,

kind words
We had a lovely photoshoot with Rochelle to capture moments with our little one while on holiday in Melbourne! She connected with our daughter and made us all feel comfortable and we enjoyed the shoot. Most importantly, the photos and edits captured the happiness and warm fuzzy feelings that we wanted to immortalise and we are so thankful!

tHE JOURNEY
Most maternity sessions take place between 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully visible but you’re still feeling relatively comfortable. If you’re unsure, reach out and we’ll find a time that feels right for your body and your season.
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME FOR A MATERNITY SESSION?
Absolutely. Maternity is about the becoming of your family however that looks. Partners and siblings are always welcome to step into the frame with you.
CAN MY PARTNER OR CHILDREN BE INCLUDED?
Yes. If spreading payments would make things feel more manageable, just reach out and we can arrange this quietly and simply.
Do you offer payment plans?
