Visit the Studio
Enjoy a beautiful and peaceful newborn photography shoot at my newly renovated studio, based in the quiet and leafy suburb of Engadine in the Sutherland Shire.
My studio is fully equipped with the latest in designer props and studio lighting technology.
I have amassed a large collection of specialised props from all over the world. Each piece has been handpicked for its uniqueness and high-quality craftsmanship to give your images a polished look.
Everything that you need to you and your baby's comfort is already here.
About Me
My name is Lorna and I specialise in Newborn and Family Photography.
Every tiny detail and every little moment is so special because it’s so fleeting. And that’s why I’m passionate about the art of photography. Helping you to document your new baby’s life – through photos – is an honour beyond words.
I've been photographing newborns for over nine years, so you can be assured that I am highly skilled and experienced with handling and posing newborns. Your babies safety and comfort is my paramount priority.
Printing Services
I’m committed to providing you with the best quality products possible. And that means prints. I believe photographs are only truly appreciated when they’re printed.
The focus of my photography is, and always will be, quality prints you'll cherish for a lifetime. I want you to be able to proudly display and enjoy your photos – to look at them every day.
High quality prints are also an excellent way of creating precious family heirlooms that can be passed down from generation to generation.
Special print packages are available to suite all families and budgets.
Invest in your memories today because tomorrow they'll be priceless.

✨MERRY CHRISTMAS✨
While 2024 has been my quietest year, I’ve never been so busy. Who knew having a baby would be so much hard work!
I plan on returning to work in the new year, I even have a few newborn shoots booked in the new year, but the next few months will be a learning experience for me while I figure out this whole new working/parenting life.
While I’m trying to plan as much as I can, I’m really just figuring things out as I go!
Anywho, I hope you all have a beautiful Christmas and new year and I look forward to seeing you all in 2025!

I`ve been having the most fun taking photos of my boy, Frankie! His expressions are the cutest!
While I`ve been on maternity leave I`ve been taking time to practise my skills, mainly lighting skills. Image 1 and 3 are studio lit images. Images 2 and 4 and naturally lit.
For all my studio portraits I use studio lighting, but sometimes I do miss the beauty of natural light. The best thing about natural light is that it makes the eyes ✨POP✨ as the bright continuous light keep the iris` open. You don`t get that with studio light, for the lighting to be correct the area can`t be bright, so the pupils stay large.
Anywho - ramble, ramble.
Conclusion - after using both light sources with Frankie, I still prefer studio lighting. It`s controlled, can be used morning, noon and night, and I just love the finish.

Me and my boy, Francis 💛
This is me now, for a while. I’m not sure yet when I’ll take on new bookings, but if you’re wanting to have a photoshoot with me, reach out anyway and we can make a plan.
For now, I’ll be soaking up these newborn cuddles!

This is me (and Matt & Olive) and this what I’ve been up to. I’ve had to take some steps back over the last while, while this little one grows.
Im still working, but only taking on what I can. So if you’re wanting a photoshoot this year, contact me anyway and we can work something out.
After all these years and after so many babies, I can’t believe it’s my turn.
