Mermaid QLD Newborn Photography | Mini Session Vs Custom Photography

Mermaid QLD Newborn Photography | Mini Session Vs Custom Photography

Let’s discuss all about the differences a mini photography session will get you versus a custom session, tailored towards you and your needs!

Hello! Welcome, I am Tiana, founder of Dreamy Moon Photography… I specialise in creating custom, heirloom art pieces for your family to cherish for years to come. But with all that aside let’s get straight into the blog!

Okay, Okay… Starting off with the Minis! Mini Sessions are great, they are a lot of fun. Fairly fast paced and a great taster into the Dreamy Moon Experience. This type of sessions is perfect for you if you are okay with a specific theme, want something short and fast, are flexible with dates and times. These session are generally discounted or offered in a cheaper bundle and are only offered 1-2 times a year. For example Christmas Mini Sessions.

Now that we have talked about the mini sessions, let’s talk about why a customer session might be a better fit for your families needs. Custom sessions, well they are completely tailored to you, “the name says it all.” There is so much more flexibility when it comes to a custom session. You have more of a say on location/ studio, date & time (depending on availability), theme, props, outfits and so much more! Dreamy Moon Photography will work along side you to create a unique experience. These sessions generally cost more and offer the full luxury experience.

So, there you have it! Mini Session Vs Custom Photography, which one would you choose?

Robina QLD Newborn Photographer | Hide and seek children’s market

The day of the Christmas Mini Markets:

We had so much fun photographing everyone’s Christmas minis at Hide and Seek children’s markets. It was so lovely meeting all of the children and their families and of course making incredible memories to finish up 2022.

The day started quite early at 6:30 but gave the Dreamy Moon Team plenty of time to set up and make everything perfect to start taking pictures at 8:00.

We have a variety of families come through and get their Christmas pictures taken. Enjoying use of our Christmas client closet.

Our first clients were absolutely adorable! Little cousins all dressed up in their Christmas outfits. Once’s warmed up they were full of little giggles. We got the sweetest little family photos of them! All dressed up in their little cohesive outfits was big brother Cooper and his baby sister Milly. Capturing the biggest smiles!

We photographed the most sweetest little siblings. Dressed in the most beautiful maroon Christmas dress and the little crochet baby onesie from our client closet. Florence and her brother Ezy were making every swoon with their cute expressions!

Getting out and meeting the community is always such a pleasure and we can’t wait to do it again in December!

If you missed out on Christmas Mini Sessions, we are hosting one more round on the 11th of December: ‘

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | Preparing for a Cake Smash!

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | Preparing for a Cake Smash!

Cake smashes are so fun!

There is just something so magical about planing, decorating and creating first birthday magic.

Today’s blog is a little different. I thought it would be a different perspective to share with you some of the behind the scenes process of organising a cake smash.

Of course it starts with the booking process. Once all booked in we start the planning. We love involving our clients in the planing process and have a huge selection of props and outfits that you can choose from in our preparation guide. Alternatively you can always leave the creative process up to us, if it’s not really your thing or you love a surprise!

Next is the fun part

Our team will go out into the field and organise anything that needs external planning such as the cake, balloons, outfits or any particular decor.

Cake decorating is one of the things that we also do in house and love creating unique naked cakes for each set up. Some have drives florals others gold flakes or other amazing designs! And of course the set up, putting everything together and intentionally adding in little details to really create that magic!

Finally the cake smash itself. Capturing those first memories of tasting cake (mostly for the first time) is so precious! The giggles and laughter. The toes between the cake slices and the messy little hands!

Have a first birthday coming up? Lets connect….

You get to completely tailor your photoshoot experience with the guidance and expertise of our team. So what to consider when you do get the chance to choose your props. Of course we will guide you along the process but here is a list of tips to help you also decide.

South Gold Coast Newborn Photographer | Props, accessories and more!

Choosing your props

Theme, are you going minimal, rustic, boho, lots of decor, different colours etc.
What type of session are you doing. Some props are more appropriate for newborns whilst others are more appropriate for older toddlers. Your photographer will give great suggestions!
How big is your little one, stream lining off the previous point… it’s important to discuss the size of your little one with your photographer as the will really narrow down the best prop fit.

Alternatively if choosing your favourite prop is a little overwhelming you can always leave the creative reigns up to your photographer. But it is also nice to have some in put too.

Tips and Tricks

Book your photographer early 2-3 months is a great amount of time. This will ensure that you get to be photographed by your dream photographer who may book out quickly! Your photographer should be very accommodating if you need to reschedule or cancel if anything arises.
Plan out with your photographer exactly what vibe you’re going for. Is it studio or outdoor photography? Neutrals or lots of colours… Do you want solo shots or with your partner and other children. This will ensure that you get the best outcome of the day.
If you’re photographer doesn’t provide a client closet. Put together some outfits and show your photographer to get a professional opinion. At Dreamy Moon Photography we have a range of maternity outfits and a dress guide if you would like to put your own outfit together.
Mama this is the time for you! Get pampered, we suggest getting your hair and makeup professionally done which we can provide in our studio. This will just take any pressure off you. It will allow you to truely relax and enjoy your shoot. I know that pregnancy can make you feel a little bit your self and we want you to feel as beautiful as possible!
