Maternity & Motherhood
Pregnancy and motherhood are easily one of the most life-changing events that could happen to a woman. And it is truly one of the most beautiful.
Capturing the beauty, strength, and joy of this time through the art of photography is something I am so passionate about and I can't wait to photograph you.
The Process
When to Book
The best time to book your maternity session is between 29 and 35 weeks. You will be fairly mobile at this time and have a beautiful belly. However, if your schedule doesn't fit within this timeframe, let me know and we can work within your timeline. For motherhood sessions, anytime is a good time to book however, definitely think about what stage your baby is at. Are they a newborn? Can they hold their head up? Can they sit unassisted? The answers to these questions will determine the images we can get from our time together.


For all that you are

Photography that feels like you
- only a little more fabulous
At Sugar Shot Studio, I create portraits that are vibrant, polished and full of personality
- with plenty of direction along the way.
â
You don't need to know how to pose
or be a professional model.
â
You just need to show up and I'll take care of the rest.

More than one way to capture what matters
More than just,
"Say cheese!"
DIRECTION THAT MAKES YOU LOOK GOOD
You don't need to know what to do with your hands, where to stand or which way to turn your face. I'll guide you through it all.
â
A PHOTOGRAPHER WHO ACTUALLY PAYS ATTENTION
The little things matter - light, posing, clothing, backgrounds, expressions and all the tiny details that make a photograph work.
â
EDITING THAT STILL LOOKS LIKE YOU
I love beautiful colour, clean skin tones and polished photographs - but
I don't want to turn you into someone else. Your photographs should still
look like you, just on a really good day.
â
PHOTOGRAPHS WORTH PRINTING
Your favourite photographs shouldn't have to live forever on your phone. Digital collections are available, along with beautiful prints and framed artwork for your home.
â
....BUT I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR!
Fret not, my dear - I've got you!
You'll have access to my ever-growing collection of gowns, fabrics and statement pieces for maternity, motherhood, and women's portrait sessions.
Whether you're after something soft and flowing, glamorous and dramatic, or a little more playful, we'll find something that works.


Hi, I'm Hannah!
I'm a photographer, designer, wife, mum, lifelong creative,
and fifth-generation photographer from Gympie.
â
Photography has been part of my family for generations.
My family's photography story began in 1908. Five generations later, I'm still behind the camera.
I've grown up around cameras, photographs, old negatives, stories, and the idea that a photograph can become something you'll treasure long after the moment itself is gone.
â
These days, I get to create those photographs for other people.
I photograph women, motherhood, maternity and school formals, with a style that's vibrant, polished and a little bit glam. I love helping people who aren't naturally comfortable in front of a camera relax, have fun and actually enjoy being photographed.
â
And yes, I will probably tell you that you look fabulous at least 47 times during your session!
â
That's part of the job ;)
