I attended Valent Lau Photography for both maternity and newborn shoots.
The environment was relaxed, I had a lot of input into the type of photos I wanted and I received beautiful well edited images with a quick turnaround. The images are high quality and are a great reminder of these special times in our lives. Very happy!

Thank you for your time and effort with our maternity photoshoot, we are really glad that we captured that special moment in time so gracefully. It was such a wonderful thing to do just before giving birth for the first time, as it was a great bonding experience for us before the baby comes. We absolutely love the photos and we can't wait to share them with family and friends.
Valent you were very patient, understanding and made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Thankyou for the opportunity and we look forward to working with you in the future.

Valent was our photographer for both our maternity and newborn baby session. It was our first child and a very exciting time for us.
We firstly captured some stunning pregnancy shots with the sunrise over the beach. We got up early and arrived when the sky was still dark! We loved the beautiful colors of the sky that Valent captured.
For our baby session we made a combination of some clean simple shots of her as well as some of the family together. We ended up making a beautiful album from each session.

From the beginning it was very clear that Valent went the extra mile for his customers. He made us feel like he had a lot of time for us and our individual story and put an emphasis on personalizing the photos as much as possible. He is extremely professional and his studio is very relaxed. The whole photography session was really an experience rather than a run of the mill photoshoot. Valent knew how to bring out some of our real emotions making for a very beautiful set of photos. I would definitely recommend his services as a cut above the rest.

We were looking for a simple but personalised photography session to capture some memories of my pregnancy and our newborn baby girl later in the year and are happy that we found Valent Lau Photography.
Valent has the patience of a saint and his calm and relaxed demeanour allows for a peaceful and pleasant shoot. We're very happy with the outcome of the photos. The maternity shoot featured us as the type of couple we were and the newborn shoot captured our daughter Anjali very well.
Having liked portrait photography for a long time, the outcome of the photos are well satisfactory. We'd (...)

Why Have Pregnancy Photography?
If you’re unsure about having a photoshoot, you’re not alone. Many mums feel self-conscious as their bodies change, but also want to remember this amazing time.
We understand what you’re going through, which is why we spend time to learn about your journey, excitement, hopes, dreams – then help you bring these out in beautiful memories in a calm, relaxed session.
All our mums have shared how they were so grateful after seeing how their love and connection was captured.
Hear what Reana & Rodrigo had to say about their session with us.
The best time to capture your pregnancy is between 30-34 weeks. Your belly is a good size, but not too big. Check our blog for a detailed explanation why this is the best time. But also don’t forget your progression sessions can start from the 2nd trimester. If you are ready to schedule your session, you can contact us to book your maternity photos today.
Where does the pregnancy session take place?
Maternity sessions can be held in our Eastern Suburbs studio, or a range of outdoor locations in Sydney. We have sessions at Coogee and Maroubra beach, Little Bay, La Perouse, and some park sessions at a range of locations within Centennial Park. It all depends on the story you want to tell.
What is a pregnancy progression session?
Progression sessions capture your belly regularly from as early as 12 weeks all the way to your main session. You can see your belly grow in a beautiful way. This is included as part of your maternity experience with us.
How long does a photoshoot take?
It depends on our planning and what you want to wear. Most sessions last 1-1.5 hours. A little longer if you’re also doing boudoir & glamour as part of your session.
Do you provide props?
We have some sheer materials and wraps you can use. We also have simple timeless props we can show you when you visit the studio. However, the best things to include in images are items that have meaning for you. We’ll explore with you and give you ideas of what to use in your session. We’ve also partnered with a rental company so you can have access to a huge range of dresses for your photoshoot, should you wish.
When do I get to see my photographs?
No more waiting for weeks. We have your Design Consultation in the studio the same afternoon of your shoot. You will see all the beautiful images we’ve created and order your artwork. We’ll guide you on the different finishes and materials, and you’ll see it all in life size. Everything is fully guided, and you can go home with one less thing to worry about.
