Congratulations on your beautiful baby! I'm Jodie, and I'd love to help you capture these precious first days that pass by so quickly.

Why New Parents Trust Stills by JP

Gentle, Baby-Led Approach
Your baby's comfort and safety always comes first. We work at their pace, with plenty of time for feeding, settling, and snuggles with mum and dad.

Comfortable In-Home Sessions
The comfort and familiarity of your own home is perfect for you and baby during those precious first weeks. No need to pack up and travel - I'll bring everything needed to you.

Specialising in Natural Newborn Portraits
No complicated props or poses just your beautiful baby exactly as they are, capturing their tiny details and perfect innocence.

When do Sessions Take Place?

Best Within First 2 Weeks (but booking up to 6 weeks)
Newborns are most sleepy and settle easiest in their first 14 days, but beautiful portraits are possible up to 6 weeks old.

Book During Pregnancy for Best Availability

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: When is the best time to book?
A: Ideally during your second trimester (around 20-24 weeks pregnant). This gives us flexibility around your due date and ensures availability.

Q: What if baby arrives early or late?
A: No worries! I keep flexible scheduling around due dates. We'll adjust your session timing based on when baby actually arrives. Beautiful photos are possible up to 6 weeks, though the sleepiest images happen in those first 2 weeks.

Q: What if baby is fussy during the session?
A: This is completely normal! We'll take breaks for feeding, changing, and settling. The session takes as long as it takes – no rushing.

Q: Do you provide props and outfits?
A: Yes! I have a collection of soft wraps, knits, and simple props. I prefer natural, timeless looks that won't date your photos.

Q: What about including older siblings?
A: Absolutely! Sibling photos are some of my favorites. We'll start with baby alone while siblings are fresh and cooperative.

Q: How soon will I receive my photos?
A: You'll get a sneak peek within 24 hours, and your full gallery within 2-3 weeks. I know you're excited to share your beautiful baby!

Q: What if I don't want my images shared on social media?

A: Not a problem at all! Just let me know and they won't be shared anywhere. Your privacy and comfort are my top priorities, and I completely respect families who prefer to keep their photos private.

About Jodie

As a mum myself, I understand how precious and overwhelming those first days with a newborn can be. My gentle, patient approach ensures both you and baby feel comfortable throughout our session.

I have experience photographing newborns and understand their needs and rhythms. My goal is to capture the pure love and wonder of this special time, creating images you'll treasure forever.

When I'm not photographing beautiful babies, you'll find me at the beach with my own family, soaking up the Sutherland Shire sunshine that I love so much.

Let's Capture These Precious First Days

Your baby will only be this tiny once. These moments the perfect fingers and toes, the way they curl up just like in the womb, their peaceful sleeping faces – they change so quickly.

Don't let these precious first days slip away uncaptured.
