Maternity and newborn photo shoot in Nouméa
The growing bump, then those first days that go by so fast. Soft, honest images to keep for you and for your little one.
from 29,000 XPF
For maternity photos, the best window is between weeks 28 and 34: the bump is beautiful and you are still comfortable. I lend the dresses, you have nothing to buy. For newborns, we follow the baby’s rhythm, never the other way round. And if you want both, the Prestige package combines the maternity shoot and the newborn shoot.
- Fine retouching of every photo
- Private online gallery, no time limit
- Unlimited HD downloads
- Delivery within 15 days
Your project, my advice
Every project is different. Here is what I recommend, depending on what you are looking for.
I am pregnant
Pregnancy does not last. Between week 28 and week 34 the bump is beautiful and you are still comfortable: that is the window. I provide the dresses, you buy nothing.
I recommend Signature · 45,000 XPF
The baby has just arrived
In the first ten days the baby still sleeps a lot: that is the moment for the softest photographs. After that it gets livelier, which is lovely too. We follow the baby, never the other way round.

Frequently asked questions
When should the maternity shoot take place?
Ideally between weeks 28 and 34: the bump is nicely round and you are still comfortable moving and posing.
What about newborn photos?
In the first ten days, babies still sleep a lot: that is the time for the softest photos. Later it is livelier, which is lovely too. We book an approximate date and adjust it after the birth.
Do I need to bring outfits?
I lend maternity dresses. For the rest, we talk it through before the shoot, nothing complicated.
How does the deposit work?
30 % by card (PayPal, no account needed) or bank transfer. The balance on the day of the session.
Why is the online payment in euros?
PayPal does not handle XPF: the deposit is charged in euros at the fixed rate (€1 = 119.33 XPF), with no fees.
What if the weather turns or something comes up?
We reschedule and the deposit stays valid. Cancellation more than 7 days ahead: full refund.
When and how will I receive my photos?
A selection within 72 h (weddings), the full gallery within 15 days, in HD and social media versions, with no time limit.
Is there a second photographer?
Included whenever a full day is covered (5 moments or more for a wedding).
Can I use the photos freely?
Free for any personal use. Commercial use: licence on quote.
Are the photos retouched?
Every photo is developed and retouched (light, colours, skin), without transformation.
