Maternity & Babies
The anticipation and the arrival of a new baby is a very special time for everyone and an absolute privilege as a photographer to capture this moment. Celebrate this special time with images that reflect all the emotions, the excitement, love and intimate moments of family.
Shoots can be on location or in the comfort of your own home.
Bianca-Rae has a selection of props, clothing and accessories to choose from, offering a range of colours to choose from with guidance on colour matching for Mum and Dad.
These sessions are best planned in the first 5 - 10 days of your little ones arrival.
Bianca-Rae can even organise your birth announcements, wall art and photobooks to help ease the pressure in an already busy time.
Sessions available in Kapiti and Wellington.
Your Portrait Journey
📞 Initial Consultation: Getting to Know You!
Our journey begins with a friendly phone call! I'm genuinely excited to learn more about you and your family. This isn't just about a photoshoot; it's about capturing your unique story. I'll ask a series of questions to understand your preferences, needs, and what you envision in your portrait session. We talk colours, style preferences and whether you would like a relaxed lifestyle session or a fine art posed session.
This helps me tailor the experience to suit your style and create something truly special.
📸 The Creative Portrait Session!
Once we've connected, it's time for the fun part – the photoshoot! I come to your home or you come to my home studio in Kapiti. From the moment we start, it's all about creating a relaxed atmosphere. I provide full direction and guidance, ensuring everyone feels comfortable and confident. We capture some beautiful connected family moments and then take our time to capture baby, feeding and re-settling and following baby's cues.
🎉 Post-Session Viewing Appointment.
After our session, we'll schedule a viewing appointment. This is where the magic happens! I'll present you with a carefully curated selection of the best photos from our time together.
