Darwin Newborn Photography

Celebrate the first weeks of your baby’s life

 

WHAT IS YOUR STYLE?

 

At Little Cherub Photography, I don’t just have one style; I embrace them all. With over 16 years of experience in professional newborn photography, I've mastered a variety of styles to capture the unique essence of each precious moment.

When people ask, "What is your style?" I find it hard to choose just one. My portfolio reflects a diverse range of techniques,

 

No matter which style resonates with you, one thing remains consistent: a commitment to capturing your newborn's natural beauty with soft, true-to-color skin tones—never using the modern sepia tones that can distort their natural complexion. Each session is approached with the utmost care for your baby's comfort and safety, ensuring that every shot is taken at their own pace.

 

Explore my gallery, and let's create beautiful memories that celebrate the purest moments of your newborn's life.

Natural Newborn

The "Natural Newborn" style embraces the beauty of simplicity, capturing your baby just as they are—pure and unposed. Using soft, organic tones and minimalistic wraps, this style focuses on the essence of your newborn's natural charm. With no intricate props or forced positions, each photo reflects the peaceful innocence of your baby, surrounded by neutral, earthy tones that highlight their delicate features. It’s all about preserving those precious, fleeting moments in their most authentic form.

POSED

The "Posed Newborn" style features your baby in safe, carefully arranged positions that highlight their adorable features. Whether you prefer a neutral backdrop or wish to introduce soft pops of color, this style keeps the overall look clean and simple, allowing your newborn to remain the focus of each image. This session offers a timeless feel and requires the full newborn photoshoot time to ensure your baby’s comfort and to capture each precious moment perfectly.

WRAPPED

The "Wrapped" style offers a cozy, comforting feel, where your newborn is safely swaddled and tucked in snugly—just like a little bundle of joy. This style is perfect for capturing the warmth and innocence of your baby, and is an ideal choice for shorter, mini newborn sessions.

FINE ART

The Fine Art Collection transforms your newborn into a timeless work of art. Using a moody black backdrop and dramatic shadows, this style highlights your baby’s delicate features with stunning depth and contrast. Often incorporating the arms of a parent, these poses create a powerful sense of scale, emphasizing the precious smallness of your newborn. With each image, your baby becomes the center of attention—beautifully framed and artistically captured in a way that feels both intimate and iconic. This is baby photography at its most elegant, where your little one truly becomes a masterpiece.

 

WHEN TO BOOK

Newborn sessions can occur up to 6 weeks old, however brand-new bubs are best

photographed at 3-14 days old. At this very precious stage of development they are

very sleepy and can “curl” easily allowing them to be artistically, peacefully and

naturally positioned.

I work at the pace of your newborn baby, while paying attention to the smallest of

details to capture the best images possible.

My style of portraiture is natural and organic; pure and simple. I love working with

colour but also in moodier, artistic tones if that is more your style. Whatever you

prefer all will capture the pure innocence and every fine detail of your angelic

newborn. Every time you see those images, it will reconnect you with the emotions

you had that very day.

 

 

What to expect in your newborn session

This studio session ranges from 1–2 hours.

Mum, dad and siblings are most welcome to join the newborn session.

I have a beautiful range of the finest props, throws, custom-made backdrops,

bonnets, and wraps to choose from for your photography session.

Being an artist, I can create amazing sets for your little cherub.

It is highly recommended that you make an advance (8 weeks) booking while you are

still pregnant to ensure you don’t miss out on capturing this precious young age.

I cannot speak highly enough of Susan! She beautifully captured both my maternity and newborn photo shoots for my son and daughter, and the results were nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, Susan made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. Her gentle nature and incredible eye for detail truly shine through in every photo.She managed to capture the most precious, natural moments—ones I’ll treasure forever. The maternity session made me feel so confident and radiant, and the newborn shoots were handled with such care and patience. It’s clear Susan has a real gift when it comes to working with babies and families.Thank you, Susan, for preserving these special memories so perfectly. I’ll cherish these photos for a lifetime!

Got some beautiful photos taken of our 2 week old baby girl last week. Susan was very welcoming and kind. The studio has a relaxing vibe & also very clean. Susan settled our little girl well for the pictures to be taken & we received the photos fast. We would highly recommend her for anybody looking to get newborn photos taken.

Thank you Little Cherub Photography for capturing our beautiful newborn and family portraits. It was our first time for a newborn photoshoot, so we had no idea who to go to. So then I searched through Google and found these beautiful photos with high star reviews. Susan is such a professional and trustworthy photographer. Starting from back and forth queries, until the day we had the session. She is very accomodating, calm and patience for the whole session and guided us on choosing the best photos to keep. Also the studio is so stunning! very clean, hygienic, and modern. You could really see how she handles her clients perfectly and makes them comfortable throughout the session. I would highly recommend Susan and her Little Cherub! We will definitely go back and refer her to our friends and family. She is indeed a high-star photographer and one of the best in Darwin :)

This was our second time having Susan do our newborn photos. There wasn’t a question of who we’d use this time as she is just the best. Susan has such a beautiful calming nature with newborns. Which makes the shoot go so smoothly. She has such a passion for newborn photography you can see it whilst she works. It was so incredibly hard to choose which photos we wanted as she does such an amazing job. We are forever greatful for the beautiful photos which we will always cherish. Thankyou again.

Treaured photos - a wonderful experience. Susan from Little Cherubs is incredible... professional, welcoming, so patient and great with our little one. We can't imagine doing a newborn photoshoot with anyone else. Susan loves her work and it shows. Everything is thought of, and every step across the entire process was easy. We never felt more comfortable during a photoshoot... Susan talked us through everything, which put us at ease right away, and she took care of all the little details.I also never would have thought to look at the photos as telling a story for our son to enjoy later in life, it was so thoughtful how she pulled all the photos together (I cried when viewing the online client portal).The studio is stunning, uses natural light and has a fantastic selection of props. If you're looking for a photographer who provides that personal touch as well as stunning photos, book Little Cherubs - you won't regret it.

Susan is amazing! From my maternity shoot to the newborn session, she created such a wonderful and relaxed atmosphere. She has a true talent for capturing beautiful, natural photos. What I really appreciated was her gentle approach with my newborn. She never pushed or forced anything, and instead worked patiently with my baby. Susan is amazing at calming and soothing the little ones, which made the entire experience so smooth. She truly is a "baby whisperer"! 😊The photos themselves are absolutely stunning – I will cherish them forever. I highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a photographer, especially for maternity and newborn photos! The only regret I have is that I didn't select more photos! :-)

We had newborn photo and sibling photos with Little Cherub Photography - Darwin Maternity Newborn Baby Photographer.1. Booking experienceI contacted Sue the photographer out of hours ( newborn baby time zone) and was greeted by a very friendly lady called Sue. I explained to Sue that our baby had been born at 35 weeks and we had no time to book anything. Sue directed me to email her all the details and she would check her schedule. Sue is normally fully booked for months ahead. Within 12 hours and as indicated on the phone, Sue emailed back with all the information we needed to progress with the booking. We were given a date way earlier than anticipated due to a cancellation. The booking process was streamlined and very easy.2. our experience at the photoshootPrior to the shoot my partner and I went through all of the collection via Facebook and sent Sue our preferred style and colour scheme. When we turned up to the shoot ( late due to a newborn and his feeding needs and sue was so understanding). When we arrived , Sue had her ideas ready and the colour scheme and helped us choose props that aligned to our style of photos sent prior.During the photoshoot, my partner and I were asked to sit on her beautiful sofa and allow her to work with our baby. Sue is AMAZING with babies and siblings especially those with additional needs. I just sat at the photoshoot and basically relaxed as sue did all the changing and settling and even winding. She also fitted us in within 10 days due to a cancellation and based on the fact that he was born prematurely. We have seen our photos and had the difficult job of narrowing down photos which were all so beautiful ( Sue also made this process easy by adopting a method where we compared similar photos in style and chose the best one. The experience at the shoot was just so relaxing and so positive. Sue is a baby whisperer and such a talent . Thank you for such a relaxed and positive experience. The photos are well worth the investment and the shoot including the studio is zen and comfortable with all needs catered for.

I first fell in love with Susan’s photography when she captured my newborn nephews 12 and 10 years ago.Recently, Susan photographed my daughter at just 11 days old, and we could not be happier with the stunning photos but also the overall experience. Not only is Susan an incredible photographer, she also has a wonderful ability to settle babies, creating a calm and comfortable atmosphere. Her kindness and patience put everyone at ease, making the entire process enjoyable.If you're looking for a talented, caring, and professional photographer, I cannot recommend Susan enough. Her work is simply outstanding!

We have continued to go back to Little Cherub Photography for our two children. We recently had one year old photos for our daughter and Susan captured gorgeous moments of our busy little person in action. They showcase plenty of her personality as a one year old. Thank you so much for your ongoing care and consideration when photographing our smallest family members! These are always the most perfect family photos!
