A NEWBORN FAMILY PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE YOU'LL REMEMBER FOREVER.
Every single day, your baby does something new. She starts following you with her eyes one day. The next day, you swear you see a hint of a smile when she locks eyes with you.
My goal as a Sydney newborn photographer is to capture those little moments, and freeze them in time.
You'll walk away with a collection of precious photographs that you’ll be able to look back on and melt your heart over, even when your baby is all grown up.
Your Delight Images family portrait experience is $200 which includes the below, and an 8x12" fine art print ($450 value). Families typically choose to invest $1500-2000 in their artwork, however there is no minimum spend and no obligation to purchase.

"He really captured some beautiful moments for us"
"The photos are just perfect and natural!"
As a first time mum, taking bubs out can be super daunting Jay was so welcoming and calming and made the whole experience lots of fun! He really captured some beautiful moments for us as a family which we will cherish forever. The photos are so so beautiful and the quality is amazing. Thank you again for such a great experience and some truly lovely photos of our newborn bubba.
Had an amazing experience with Jay at both our maternity and newborn shoot! I wasn’t sure how we’d go with a 12 day old newborn, but Jay made us feel very comfortable! The photos are just perfect and natural! Wonderful addition to our home! Will absolutely see him again in the future to capture new moments!
FAQ's
WHERE DO THE PHOTO SHOOTS TAKE PLACE?
How much is a newborn photo shoot?
The Delight Images photography studio is in Sutherland, about 40 minutes south of Sydney CBD. It is private, quiet and clean with lots of natural light, and fully cleaned between sessions to ensure your family’s safety.
Your newborn family portrait experience is $200 which includes a discovery call, what to wear guide, 1-2 hour family photo shoot in my studio, and an 8×12″ matted fine-art print ($450 value).
Families typically choose to invest $1500-2000 in their family portrait artwork, though there is no minimum spend and no obligation to purchase.
how do you keep my baby safe?
What age is best for my newborn photo shoot?
As a dad of three girls, I know how important it is to keep your little one safe. Trust in my 15+ years of experience handling newborn babies, to keep your baby secure and happy during your photo shoot. I want you to relax and enjoy the experience, knowing that your baby is in good hands. At every newborn photo shoot, I take safety measures including:
- Cleaning the studio between shoots
- Using hand sanitiser throughout
- Washing all props afterwards
- Asking a parent to “spot” the baby if they are lying on any props
The first 7-10 days after birth are ideal for your newborn photos. Bub is generally more sleepy and easier to curl up into cute poses. If you prefer to wait until they’re slightly older and more alert/expressive, that’s fine too.
Can we bring older siblings?
How long does the PHOTO Shoot take?
Of course! I love capturing the whole family in your newborn photos (including pets).
Your newborn photo shoot typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on how settled bub is. I only do one newborn shoot per day so you’ll have plenty of time to feed, soothe and settle your baby. After all, a happy baby equals happy parents equals beautiful photos!
