Sneak Peeks - Making it extra special:
We like to ask families if they would like to write a little paragraph to go along with their sneak peek when it is posted to our social media, this just helps to make it a little more personalised and special for your family.
You may like to write something about how much you love your little ones, how they have changed your life, how your family came to be or even a little poem or story. You may like to talk about your relationships, your pregnancy journey, or how excited you are to meet your newest little family member. A birthday wish or Christmas tradition can also make a nice little caption to go along with your images.
Below are a few examples for you to have a look at. We ask that if you would like to write something special that you please get it to us prior to your session and you can just send us a message or email with your little caption. Please see some examples below.

Maternity
"Graziella and Sean have been together for seven years and married for four. In 2016 they decided to add to their family and became paw parents. They have faced many difficulties in trying for a baby of their own and in 2019 after three years of trying they became pregnant with their
miracle baby boy." - Graziella |
"We are beyond excited and feel truly blessed to, complete our family with a precious baby girl. My pregnancy this time around, has somewhat been a little challenging, having also a toddler at home. We can not wait, to watch Zachary take to his big brother role and it makes the harder days easier to get through, knowing we will meet
our little girl soon" - Christina |
"We are so excited to meet our kid (who we have been calling “Cleatus the Foetus” during the pregnancy). I can’t wait to meet him and introduce him to his cousins. I am looking forward to every single second of this
little guys life." - Sabrina |
Newborn
"The most amazing gift we could ever give you, is each other. To have a sister is to have a best friend for life.
Big sister Violet Rose, you have this natural aura that draws people to you. So loving and full of sass. You blow us away everyday watching you explore and develop in your world, you never miss a thing. You have an innate nurturing soul. The love and care you show for your little sister from the first moment you saw her is truly something else. Little Sister Ivy Elizabeth, you came into this crazy world like you were always meant to be. You bring hope and peace and calm to a year that has brought loss for so many. Jacinta & Louie could not be more thankful for their two beautiful little bebes " - Jacinta |
"Connor Anthony was born on the 26th of July 2020 filing in the missing piece to complete our little family.
He brings us so much love & joy with his happy bubbly personality and a smile that lights up our lives " - Jaimee |
"Jess and Grant met 11 years ago, and have been married for nearly 6 years. They have travelled all over the world and have their gorgeous fur baby Shadow.
For their 5th anniversary they travelled to Bali and decided they would give Shadow a baby brother or sister. They were fortunate enough to be blessed quickly and welcomed Serena in early August 2019. At 4 days old Serena had to go back into hospital with infection, and spent the next week there, much to Jess and Grant's dismay! Knowing she's home and healthy was cause to celebrate with some keepsake newborn photos" - Jess & Grant |
Family
"Boy are we going to have trouble on our hands in years to come! Both these little sweet hearts have had daddy wrapped around their finger since day one. Whilst they don’t admit to favourites, cuddles with mummy always seem to make everything feel better. Thanks Emma for making our family feel so special today xoxo
- The Haris’s" - Amanda |
"Aaleyah I can’t believe you are turning 4 in a few days. Your personality is so loving, caring and nurturing. You are the life of the party who loves to sing and dance. You show me daily how much I’m doing a wonderful job. Mummy loves you always and forever
River, I’m blessed to have you in my life. You was my miracle at the end of a dark tunnel You complete my heart. I’m so grateful to have you in my life. You're always so happy and smiling with your bright twinkly eyes. Mummy loves you always and forever" - Tara |
"We thought life was good but Matilda and Elliott have shown us what life is really all about. We never could have imagined how lucky
we could be." - Briallen |

Joshua became a big brother in May 2019 and straight away shared a special bond with Jordan. Megan and Brendan are very grateful that they have been blessed with such beautiful blue eyed boys and adore the perfect little family they have created. - Megan |
"Josh and I have been together since we were 16. Meeting the love of your life that young, we didn't think we'd have another love in our lives.
We had to wait a while for our baby, but she was worth it. Athena is the perfect addition to our family. She brings us more joy, more laughter and such an overwhelming love into our family. Athena is the cheekiest, sparkly eyed baby and she just melts us every single day. Our hearts can barely contain all the love we have for our miracle baby." - Bobbielyn (Athena's mum) |

Mini Moments
"Kyson, don't let the cute little smile fool you. This boy is all cheeky and we wouldn't have him any other way! At almost 11 months old this little spunk knows how to turn on the charm to win you over. Kyson, you are all we have ever wanted and so much more. Thank you for choosing us to be your Mummy and Daddy!"
- Brenda (Kyson's mummy) |
"Erin and Ezekiel siblings, friends and professional mischief makers. Our life is full of much more love, laughter and chaos since you joined us."

'When Frankie was first born, he was a spitting image of his Grandpa (which made that first breastfeeding experience kinda awkward!). Now that Frankie is almost 8 months old, he is starting to look like a mini version of his Dad and I just think he is the cutest thing ever!"
- Leah |
Before your shoot:
It is a great idea to have a talk about your session and what it will look like with your kids and as a family before you arrive. Talk to them using my name "Emma" and talk to them like I am your best friend "We are going to see Emma at her studio and we are going to have so much fun and get out photos taken!" The more relaxed you are the more excited the kids will be to get in and have some fun. We have some phots on our About Us page and the videos above can also be useful for them to get to know me and put their minds at ease about coming to meet me.
Please make sure that your children are as well rested and feed as possible and I know that this is easier said than done. You may like to bring along some snacks and water bottles (especially if you have a newborn session). We ask that you try and stick to clean foods that wont make their faces, hands and outfits all dirty. Many parents also find that a little bribe or reward for doing a fantastic job during our session can also go a long way. You are also welcome to bring along comforters, favourites toys or blankets etc to help them feel at ease and comfortable through our session.
During your shoot - capturing that love and connection:
We are all about capturing your connections and moments of love between you and your family, hence our name "Moments of Love Photography". As much as yes we do want to get a photo with everyone looking at the camera we also love the special moments you share together and this generally comes from touch, weather it's a little kiss on the foreheads, a tickle, a push back of the hair, holding hands and playing with the kids to make them laugh. We highly recommend you be yourself and let us just capture you being you, I mean that is what you are here for right!
If you are having an outdoor session we ask that you please dress appropriately for the temperature. Things are not fun if we are too cold or too hot. Sometimes the weather can be an issue. We try to leave it as close as possible to reschedule your session as we like to go ahead when we can. If the weather is looking like it isn't going to play nice we will contact you to organise another date.
We know an appreciate that a lot goes into get ready for a photo shoot and we hope that you can be relaxed as possible and enjoy the experience with us. The more fun and love you show towards each other the more it will shine through in your photos.
We look forward to capturing your special moments of love.
See you soon, Em x
