Newborn Photography Gold Coast QLD | Why we love quality over quantity

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | The best part of what we do!

The best part

Ahhh! Where to begin, where to begin… Can I just sum up this blog and say the whole thing. 😂

Just kidding. Of course we will get into the nitty gritty!

There are so many avenues I can go with this but let’s start off with the most important!

There is nothing, and I mean nothing! More special than creating timeless memories for people to cherish. And without getting to cumbersome, those memories that I’ve captured are especially special when there is significance behind them. Such as a family member passing, rainbow baby, capturing love! A new baby even!

Those meaningful relationships

When it’s time to choose the images with our clients and they’re balling their eyes out from love and joy, that! Is a feeling that I just can’t explain.

It’s so much more than snapping pictures, it’s building meaningful relationships with people. Being apart of their life story and adding genuine meaning to them!

Photography is so much more than the art, it’s the service and that is something really special.

I’m am so honoured and blessed to be in this industry and create connections. Walk along side families and capture heirloom art pieces to be handed down for generations to come!

Baby Photos Gold Coast | The difference between DMP & other togs

Baby Photos Gold Coast | The difference between DMP & other togs

Baby Photos Gold Coast | The difference between DMP & other togs

We are spoilt with choice on the Gold Coast, when it comes to family, baby and newborn photographers. There are so many different styles from lifestyle, to studio, fine art and so much more!

But it can definitely be a little overwhelming when choosing the photographer that will be best for you and your family!

So in today’s blog, I wanted to share with you some handy tips to choosing the best photographer for your needs. And the difference with booking into Dreamy Moon Photography in comparison to everyone else on the Gold Coast.

Photoshoot type?

Firstly it’s important to know what type of shoot you want. Whether that be newborn, cakesmash, family, wedding ect. The list goes on.

Once you have that down pat, you can have a little think about what style you gravitate towards. Do you love indoors, outdoors, light and airy, moody, creamy, high end.

This will give you a great visual representation on who you should gravitate towards. Style is the most important thing in my opinion!

Next you should discuss a budget. Is this a once in a lifetime photo shoot opportunity such as newborn photos (they’re only young for so long), where you should splurge a bit.

Do you want a full tailored experience…

Where all the planing and printing is organised for you. All you have to do is turn up and have fun! Or are you happy with a fast paced digital only shoot, where you do have to put more effort into it?

Once you have those things in mind you can go onto choosing your ideal photographer.

Dreamy Moon Photography is an experience that takes all the stress out of organising photos. We work alongside you for every little detail from the initial consultation, wardrobe and prop selections to hand selecting the best images that will suit your family’s needs and be presented on the walls of your home!

Robina QLD Newborn Photographer | The ultimate guide to choosing the right photographer

Robina QLD Newborn Photographer | The ultimate guide to choosing the right photographer

Robina QLD Newborn Photographer | The ultimate guide to choosing the right photographer

I can not stress this enough! The photographer handling your precious, delicate newborn baby. Needs to be professionally trained and up to newborn photography safety standards!

Please don’t be persuaded by a cheap deal when it comes to this. We have seen time and time again babies being injured from incorrect handling by untrained photographers attempting these style shoots.

What you need to know

I wanted to get onto the blog today and put together a full list of the ultimate guide to selecting a newborn photographer. Especially in an unregulated industry. At Dreamy Moon Photography, we want you to have the best and safest outcome. Beautiful newborn pictures for you to treasure for years to come!

being the scenes newborn photography Robina qld

First things first

Okay first things first… Is the newborn photographer a legitimate photographer or are they just someone advertising cheap images on Facebook?

How do you find this out? Well do they hold an abn? Have they got credentials or have trained with experts in the field. Do they have a website, an Omnipresence. Have they got any awards or recognitions? All these things we’ll help you set a part an expert compared to an amateur.

Don’t let budget affect quality

And I know that sometimes budget can be an issue and can dictate the over decision but most experienced photographers do offer payment plans and if you book in early, you will have plenty of time to pay the shoot off.

Ps, we offer afterpay now!

Okay quality over quantity!! This is so important and can easily be missed. Wouldn’t you rather have 10 amazing images that you can print and creat the most sensational and timeless gallery wall to display in your home. Rather than 60-70 mediocre images that will just get lost on the internet?

Now the fun stuff!

Because this is the ultimate guide I do want to get into some of the fun things, now that we got the serious topics out of the way.

Choose a photographer based on the style you love. Are they a studio photographer? Do they shoot lifestyle? Are they rustic, minimal, boho, dark, light? Do they specialise in posing newborns such as froggy, bottoms up and taco. Or do they photography babies in a more relaxed presentation?

Does your photographer offer an exclusive experience such as dreamy moon photographer. Where everything is taken care of and all you have to do is sit, relax and snack.

We take pride in running a full exclusive experience for our clients, that is not only safe, reputable and experienced. But also tailored, easy going and unique!

Burleigh Heads QLD Newborn Photography | Postpartum Anxiety

Burleigh Heads QLD Newborn Photography | Postpartum Anxiety

Those postpartum anxiety feels creep up out of nowhere!

One minute you’re in a total baby bliss bubble the next you’re questioning everything. I wanted to touch base on my own personal experience with postpartum anxiety this time around after having my baby this year, February 2022. I can’t even remember when it became a thing but it just became something that I started to notice would creep up often.

Trigger warning. For people who may feel upset by the talk of post natal anxiety, fears and depression.

In 2016

In 2016 prior to having my first son I was in a major car accident. That kind of kick started a lot of my traumas surrounding death and loss of loved ones. Throw a baby into a mix and that was years of therapy that I committed too. I truely thought I was past those traumas until I had my second baby. The postpartum phase amplifies a lot of suppressed issues.

I started having panic attacks in the middle of the night. Worried that my baby would stop breathing even when she was perfectly fine and safe. I would fear that if I let people mind her, she might get hurt. (Absolutely not the case at all though). Sometimes I would get worried that in the car she would stop breathing and I wouldn’t know because I was driving.

Driving became very limited with our baby because she absolutely hates the car and I could not bear to leave the house due to my debilitating anxiety.

This is just the tip of the iceberg to my experience with postpartum anxiety. I’m so blessed to have the most supportive fiancé. An incredible circle of family, friends and community.

To be on the other side…

I’m so glad to be on the other side of this. Thank to some handy tips that I fell back on. Such as a strong routine, an ear to talk to and really slowing down. These are somethings that worked for me and may be different for everyone.

If you or anyone you know is suffering from postpartum anxiety, please reach out to the helplines.

There is nothing we love more than seeing the reaction of our clients face when they see their precious babies printed and crafted into heirloom artwork!

But back to the reveal of course. Courtney absolutely loved seeing the folio box in person for the first time. She was completely smitten by how precious her baby looked! She ever couldn’t believe how much his changed in just a few weeks.

We had the please of capturing Courtney’s reaction on camera!

Tweed NSW Newborn Photographer | Outdoor Family Session

Tweed NSW Newborn Photographer | Outdoor Family Session

Tweed NSW Newborn Photographer | Outdoor Family Session

Bree originally found Dreamy Moon Photography through our Santa mini promotion we ran last year. She absolutely lived our service and booked us in to shoot her wedding. However a postponement was made and we decided to squeeze in an outdoor family shoot in the mean time!

Over the weekend we had an outdoor session scheduled in for a returning client of ours. Bree and her family are just adorable and really wanted to do a nature based outdoors session. I knew the perfect spot! Somewhere with lots of trees, greenery and a kangaroo or two. Think very scenic vibes, sage and earth tones!

Now of course you probably all know us as studio photographers, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do an outdoor shoot on request. We love a good sunrise on the beach or sunset on the mountains.

On the day Bree and her family were beautifully coordinated with their outfits. The boys wore jeans and white shirts, her youngest in a camel toned knitted sweater and of course Bree in a beautiful white flow dress! We made our way through various area of scenery from open fields to canopies of trees and finishing up on the board walk. A perfect area for toddlers to explore and truely be candid!

Bree and her family had requested a photo of the boys so she could send it to their nanny. We captured the perfect photo of them looking over the board walk and into the shrubs!
