Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Everly’s Cake Smash

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Everly’s Cake Smash

The Planning…

When Everly’s mama got into contact with me and discussed that she wanted to do a shoot for Everly’s first birthday, I thought boho vintage vibes immediately. Little gingham outfits, bonnets and dried flowers. Of course in a neutral colour pallet. Think peaches and creams… We got to planning straight away. I sent Through Renee (Everly’s mama) a collage of the inspiration that I pulled together. I love doing this for clients. As it can give a visual representation of the creative flows for the session.

The session

Everly did amazing during her cake smash session. She was so happy and bubbly. Lots of laughter echoed throughout the photography studio. She had the biggest blue eyes and most gorgeous little smile. Firstly we started with milestone portraits. She was dancing, posing and clapping her little hands. Everly was so interactive and confident in front of the camera. She is a real natural. Followed by the cake smash Itself. The cake was a white naked cake, dairy free as Everly has a dairy intolerance. We love being an all inclusive studio at Dreamy Moon Photography. We want to ensure every baby has an opportunity to celebrate with a cake smash! After the cake smash itself, Everly wrapped up her session with a splash bath.

Stress free for the parents!

Parents always tell me how much they love coming to Dreamy Moon Photography as it is truely a stress free experience. We provide the planning, decor, outfits, backdrops and splash bath. We also clean up all the mess so you can avoid any stress and enjoy the rest of your day after the session.

South Gold Coast Newborn Photographer | Head on hands pose

28/05/2022 No Comments

Head on hands…

This pose captures the natural curliness of your newborn baby. It showcases how sleepy they are. Their ability to just be placed in any position and be content as a bug in a rug.

How the pose is safely done:

The head on hands pose consists of gently posing your baby’s head to lay on top of their arms. Crossing over their little legs and allowing them to be on their tummy. Your baby’s head will be facing out to the side towards the camera. So we can capture their precious little face. This pose can be done on a newborn posing bean. A prop, like the moon pillow above. Or in a basket, bed or drawer prop.

Creativity in the pose:

There are an abundance of creative ways you can incorporate into this pose. Such as draping a blanket over the baby, dressing them up in a little outfit or showcasing all their squish!

Safety, Safety, Safety!

I say this time and time again… But it is the most important part about newborn photography. The safety of your precious baby is of utter most importance to the Dreamy Moon Photography team. That is why we will continuously update our training and safety skills with some of the best professional trainers around. Such as Tiny Hearts Education, this sister and mama led business is one of Australian leading educator in first aid. They have an updated module of first aid training and neo natal stress identifiers. Dreamy Moon Photography is trained in identifying any unusual signs with your newborn, during our session together.

The basket…

Your baby is all snuggled up in a soft wrap. They look so little! Your baby is than placed in a basket prop and photographed. Oh so cute! They look like a little bean. The focus lies on their tiny little facial features. Their nose and sweet baby ears… Tiny sleepy eyes lay shut, as they comfortably snooze away. The basket pose is terrific at showcasing your baby. It can be photographed in many different ways and styled. There are the options to use both round baskets and rectangular baskets. They can be layered with fabrics, beads or different textures. Or can be a complete minimal look. We love using different coloured wraps to change up a look. Matching them with a baby bonnet or baby flower crown. The creative decor is endless and can be personalised to your taste.

Safety

Safety is our number one priority and we are always ensuring that we are following safe protocols when it comes to your precious newborn. We specifically design our prop set up with safety in mind. That means either using a weighted object to secure the basket. Or simply having a hands on spotter at all times.

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Bottoms Up Pose

One of the most iconic poses…

Bottoms up pose is an iconic pose used in newborn studio photography. The pose consists of gently placing your baby on their tummy. Elbow and knee almost or slightly touching. Slightly raising both their head and bottom. To create a little bit of a squishy look. Lastly your baby’s head will be facing towards the camera gently resting in their hands. This pose is photographed on a posing table using posing beans to support the baby in this position.

Your Photographer can get an array of different perspectives whilst your baby is in this pose. Front on view is by far the most popular. Followed by an aerial shot and macro shots.

Firstly it’s important to consider the training of your photographer before booking a newborn shoot with someone. Secondly the safety of your newborn is of highest priority at our Dreamy Moon Photography Studio. DMP is continually updating our training with annual courses. To ensure our safety skills are up to date to handle your precious newborn.

Studio newborn photography is filled with an abundance of beautiful poses, when done correctly and safely. They hold no harm towards your baby. As baby’s are quite bendy and flexible.

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Elijah’s Cake Smash

What better way to celebrate than a cakesmash…

Baby Elijah’s first birthday is just around the corner and what better way to celebrate than a cakesmash! When Elijah’s mumma Sophie contacted us in regards to doing a cake smash, we got to planning immediately. Sophie expressed how she missed out on getting newborn photography or milestone photography photos done with Elijah. That it was important for them to capture his first birthday smashing a cake.

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Elijah's Cake Smash

The session:

Sophie, Elijah’s and Nanny all arrived at the studio to capture some fun and candid birthday cake smash photos. The studio was decorated with a sheer white curtain draping in to add a touch of airy and whimsical feels. A natural handmade green garland hung on twinkle fairly lights. Embellished with a naked cake, topped with fresh baby’s breath flowers.

Elijah’s had a ball in the studio! Freshly walking he found himself running around, giggling and chasing balloons. When Elijah spotted the fluffy rug he immediately need to have it. Obsessed with the fluffy texture he cuddled and rolled on top of it. So we definitely had to bring it into the photography set up. It was too cute not to capture him adoring over it!

After a fun time smashing the cake and listening to bluey. It was time to bring out the splash bath and pack up the cake… Boy oh boy, did sweet baby Elijah’s love the splash bath. He was chuckling and popping all the bubbles. His smile was just contagious, he had all of us laughing!

Newborn Photography Gold Coast QLD | You’ll miss these moments

Why does time go so fast when you have little ones? It’s like we blink our eyes and they have grown double in size! Their little hands and toes, the sweet little features on their face. The rolls and the squish. We go to pop them into an outfit and they can barely squeeze into it. And you wonder, when, how… Did you grow so fast. We hold them and look at them everyday and some days are long. But the years, oh the years are so short. In a matter of time they are big an independent and you wonder how did the days turn into memories. The bitter sweet moments, at the time you wished would hurry up. But now you want them back. You want to hold onto those memories and make them last forever…

…And you can, well kind of. Through the lens of photography, you can freeze time. Treasure those memories and turn them into precious keepsakes. The art of turning your memories into forever. Time goes so fast when you have young children, we are caught up in the hustle and bustle of surviving parenthood. The survival guide and constant feeling of ‘am I doing this right’, that it is easy to get distracted. The most precious thing we can have is professional images of our newborn babies and children. Something to look back on and reminisce. Something to hold, flick through and soak in the memories of when they were so little. Because they truely grow so fast.

Best Newborn Photography on the Gold Coast QLD

15/05/2022 No Comments

Best Newborn Photography on the Gold Coast QLD

This sweet boy was so adored during his session! His gentle personality shined through his studio newborn photography session. Mama and dada requested baby blue hues for their first son. Of course I had to run out and do a spotlight haul on some new fabrics for this session. They had some beautiful cream and blue tones, which I thought would go perfectly with this shoot!

The Planning

Keeping it natural and earthy, we incorporated some woven basket props and rattan into the set. Pairing the props with a natural beaded garland and some beige wool. To add texture, layers and depth to the photos. Baby boy fit perfectly in the mohair bonnet I recently ordered. He looked so precious in this setup.

The Session

When it was time to do bean bag poses, baby boy was so calm. When posed, both wrapped and unwrapped were his favourite. A content little one, he slept the entire time when being posed. His favourite position was the bottoms up pose. The baby blue fabric and wrap suited his complexion so well. We can forget about how precious those little newborn hands and toes are!

The newborn phase honestly goes in a blink of an eye. It is such a pleasure to be able to capture the sweet little first moments, for the parents to cherish forever. It is such a beautiful thing to witness our clients experience the Dreamy Moon Photography experience! We were blessed to be able to film some behind the scene snippets of this little man’s session. Over on our Dreamy Moon Photography YouTube Channel.
