Just a due date is all we need to book you in. We have everything you need at the studio from wraps, props to accessories. As we are primarily a professional lighting based photographer, we do all our newborn shoots in our Burleigh Heads photography studio.

Cake Smash Photographer Gold Coast QLD | Planning your Session.

Where to begin. Well if you’re anything like me you probably have a bunch of Pinterest boards pinned and an idea of how you want your smash session theme to go. We love a good visual and have so much fun planning and guiding themes along side you! Dreamy Moon Photography will assist you with colour pallets, decoration ideas and even coordinating outfits. We also have a huge range of outfits for the little ones to wear from newborn size 00000 all the way up to size 2 for the cake smash toddlers.

Style it…

Whether you want the full Shazam! Balloon arch, lots of props or want to keep it more minimalistic with a few items to enhance the background. Such as a curtain drape or some dried flowers. We love to source our decor locally and want to create a unique backdrop for you. If your little one has a favourite item, we definitely encourage to bring it along and create special keepsake memories. Alternatively, you could keep it a surprise and leaving it up to us to plan and decorate your whole session. Giving over creative reign can be such a beautiful reveal. 

Dreamy Moon Photography will bring your vision to life with a contemporary style flair to it.  Our style is one of the qualities that differentiates us from other photographers. We love, love love a good studio set up! Our style is a blend between contemporary, rustic, minimal and boho. If only there was a word that combined it all…

Now if you’re new to cake smash photography you’re probably thinking “what are we on about”! 

A cake smash generally is a celebration of the first year. Where you bring your baby in for a relaxed milestone session involving smashing a cake.

Gold Coast QLD Newborn Photography | Why we love studio photography

If you are new to studio photography and all the terms. Don’t worry we will fill you in. Firstly studio photography is based indoors with either windows or studio lighting. On a variety of backdrops or props.

Studio photography is the best! Now let me tell you why…

There is just something so magical about what you can create in a studio. The control over the environment allows for our photography team to be very intentional during our studio photography shoots. We are able to bring visions to life with the ability to adjust our lighting, backdrops, props and outfits. You will always be in a comfortable environment as we can control the temperature and always have snacks and beverages on hand. 

In our personal opinion, a majority of photographers specialise in outdoor photography. Don’t get us wrong we absolutely love outdoor photography too and shoot outdoor on request. However we can kindly say that Dreamy Moon Photography has the skills to work with both studio and outdoor photography. 

So wether you love a beautiful sunset or an intentionally setup studio shoot. Dreamy Moon Photography can deliver you an exceptional experience from start to finish.

South Gold Coast Newborn Photographer | Tips for surviving the 4th Trimester

South Gold Coast Newborn Photographer | Tips for surviving the 4th Trimester

South Gold Coast Newborn Photographer | Tips for surviving the 4th Trimester

Congratulations mama!

You did it, you survived 3 trimesters of pregnancy and birthed your baby. But have you ever heard about the 4th trimester? A scientifically researched method that starts immediately after your baby is born and last for the first 12 weeks (the newborn phase). The 4th trimester is a time for your baby to not only physically but emotionally adjust to being on the outside world. They will eventually identify that mama and baby are not one but two separate things. This can be a challenging time for your newborn, however there are a few tips and tricks to help this transition. 

Tips for baby 

  • Swaddling your baby – in utero they are constantly warmed and secure, swaddling aims to mimic the womb. It will also help with the startle reflex so they don’t wake themselves up accidentally 
  • Feeding on demand – if breastfeeding feeding on demand is an amazing way to help nourish your baby and make them feel comfortable and full. 
  • White noise – this will help with the strange and sharp noises they are adjusting to earth side. White noise is an amazing tool that helps mimic sounds in the womb. 
  • Skin to skin, there are so many amazing benefits to skin to skin such as calming your baby, releasing happy hormones and even regulating your baby’s temperature. 
  • Waking up every two hour is normal in the 4th trimester. Your newborn is biological wired to have different sleep cycles than older babies. Read all about it here: Newborn Sleep

For mama 

  • a tribe that will hold and nurture you 
  • Nourishing and warming foods – now is the time to warm your womb. 
  • Rest, rest, rest! 
  • Sun light to soak in all the vitamin d 

The first 40 days is an amazing book to reference postpartum needs.

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Tips for a successful home birth

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Tips for a successful home birth

Tweed NSW Newborn Photography | Tips for a successful home birth

We love everything about birth, babies and beyond! But homebirth has a special place in our heart and we want to share all the tips for a successful homebirth. 

First a little back story, in February we gave birth to our healthy baby girl in the presence of our doula safely at home. It was such an amazing, empowering and peaceful birth! There was nothing more empowering and magical than birthing on our own terms.

But back to what this blog is all about and that is all the helpful tips you need! 

Okay it’s all about preparation and I’m talking about mental preparation. It is so important to go within and address any fears or concerns prior to going into labour. By releasing any blockages you’re truely surrendering to the experience. 

Having great support is key!

A doula is an amazing emotional rock to have throughout your pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I honestly couldn’t of done it without both our doulas. They will hold your hand when your birth partner needs a breather. They will nurture and carry both the parents through this life changing transition. 

Have tools on hand that will get you through the hard parts. 

  • Affirmation cards
  • Combs or banksia sea pods for pain relief (acupressure)
  • Water for pain relief (shower or birth pool) 
  • Nourishing food for early labour (to fuel you)
  • Birth ball
  • Essential oils 
  • Practice deep breathing (for relaxation)
  • Hypno birthing audios 
  • Scarf jiggling  (robozo)  for pain relief

Really work out what you will need during this time!  

Have a birth plan and go with the flow. It’s great to have a guide but be open to whatever unfolds.

We love playing this or that over on our Dreamy Moon Photography platforms

Engaging with our community is so important to us. Plus we always get comments about how everyone loves this game and the comparisons. 

The first This or That image is of one of our favourite cake smash sessions. Miss Everly came in for a milestone, cake smash and splash bath shoot. She completely stole everyones hearts with her big blue eyes and contagious smile. Over on our instagram the votes were super close between the two comparisons. However the image of Everly standing, took the win! Our audience was completely smitten with that image.

Maternity Photographer Gold Coast QLD | This or That

Following the votes over on instagram, we posted a second image for this or that. Our classic newborn set up, the vote choices were between the basket prop or bottoms up. With our surprise people were absolutely loving the bottoms up pose. A super classic pose but yet timeless…

For the final this or that image. We uploaded another bottoms up pose (since everyone loved the previous) and a froggy. Now this was super close in votes 48-52! Froggy did however just take the lead and won overall. Such a fun game to see what everyone is loving at the moment!

This allows for a timeline of images which are perfect for an album or folio box.  Cake smashes are meant to be fun, so rest assured. You can leave all the planning and cleaning up to our team… You can sit back and enjoy your precious little one.
