We did a post covid lockdown newborn photoshoot with Valent at his studio. He was very professional, engaging and thorough throughout the entire process. I’ll echo what other clients have said in that he puts in the time and effort to get to know his subjects and puts everyone ease to capture their personality in the photos. We’re incredibly pleased with the results. Highly recommended.

My wife and I came in to see Valent to get photos taken of our 5 week old son. Initially we just wanted to get a few casual shots, we didn't think we'd want many. In the end we were very happy with all the photos we got. Valent made us very relaxed throughout the whole process. He got to know us and understand us and our relationship with our son. We were very very happy and got some wonderful photos.

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 (...)

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.

We came to do some photos with our baby Hugo to remember this special time because he's growing so fast! We came to Valent and it's been a wonderful experience. He wanted to know our story, so that way he could know what was so special about us and our connection with Hugo. He makes you feel very comfortable and relaxed during the photo shoot. That's essential to show that relationship that you have with your baby in the photos.
The Design Consultation after that I think is the most enjoyable part of the process. We got to see all the amazing photos in a slideshow and create our artwor(...)
Why Have Newborn Baby Photography?
Many parents feel overwhelmed right after their baby’s arrival, but also want to preserve these precious moments.
At our fully equipped studio in Coogee, we offer you a warm and inviting space where you can relax and enjoy the time without worrying about cleaning and tidying for a home shoot.
We use professional soft lighting that beautifully accentuates your child’s adorable features, creating stunning and timeless images.
Many parents have shared how they initially hesitated about professional photos but ended up feeling incredibly grateful for capturing these priceless memories.
We’ll work with you to celebrate your baby’s uniqueness and their bond with you, and create artwork you’ll love forever.
Hear what Jen & Bronte had to say about their session with us.
The best time to capture your newborn is between in the first 2 weeks after birth. Since you are in hospital for the first few days, it’s best to come in right after going home. This is the best time to capture that etherial, womb-like state. But this isn’t the only age. There are also other ages that are great for baby photography. Check our blog for a detailed explanation.
Where can we have a newborn photography session?
For the utmost comfort and convenience, our Eastern Suburbs studio is perfect for sessions with very small babies. It’s climate controlled and comfortable, allowing you to relax and fully enjoy the experience. We can also go to a range of outdoor locations in Sydney – however, it’s you should consider the weather and elements, especially when dealing with a newborn. Another option is that we visit your home with our studio equipment. Talk to us to discuss your unique needs.
Do you include parents and siblings in the photoshoot?
Yes, we love to include the whole family in the celebration. After all, we want to see baby, but when they grow up, they will want to see photos with mum, dad, and all the siblings. We’ll plan with you all the different combinations so nobody is left out.
Do you provide wraps and props?
We have a range of color wraps for your shoot. We also have some buckets and other small props. For hygiene, we wash everything between clients. For the parents, we’ve also partnered with a dress hire company so you can have access to a huge range of clothing in current styles.
What if my baby isn’t well?
Your little bundle of joy is also full of surprises. If they are unwell, or has broken out with a rash, or flaky dry skin, then we will reschedule your session so they can rest. We’ll talk about contingencies when you book in your session.
When do I get to see my photographs?
We know you’re excited to see your images. No more waiting for weeks. We offer your Design Consultation in the studio the same afternoon of your shoot. During this fully guided consultation, you will see all the beautiful images we have captured and be able to create your artwork.
