Adelaide's Newborn, Family & Christening Photographer
Lifestyle newborn, family and christening photographer across Adelaide, South Australia.
For families who value connection, not perfection.
Photo by Nancy is Adelaide's newborn, family and christening photographer, based in Mawson Lakes with over 12 years of experience. Nancy photographs families across all Adelaide metro suburbs. Her approach is calm, documentary and lifestyle-focused, capturing real moments without forced poses or studio props. Sessions start from $150, with packages from $495.
Life moves fast. One day your kids are taking their first steps, and the next they are moving on to their next big chapter. It is easy to put off booking a photo session, but months quickly turn into years, and those fleeting stages pass.
Professional family photos are about capturing those chaotic, beautiful moments: the real smiles, the laughter, and the quiet connections you will want to look back on.
As a lifestyle family, newborn and event photographer, my goal is to make your session relaxed and stress-free. Whether we are capturing a golden hour family session, an intimate in-home newborn, or a family christening somewhere in Adelaide, I focus on creating honest, quality imagery that tells your actual story.
You do not need to wait for the perfect time. Let's capture your family exactly as you are right now.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Nancy to take family photos, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, Nancy was a true professional, working with us to choose the perfect location, poses, and outfits for our shoot.
During the shoot, Nancy put everyone at ease, capturing candid moments and beautiful posed shots alike. And the final photos? Absolutely stunning. Nancy has an incredible eye for composition, color, and lighting, and the photos she took of my family and me will be treasured for years to come.
In addition to her skill as a photographer, Nancy was also a pleasure to work with. . I would highly recommend Nancy to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality photos, and I can't wait to work with her again in the future.

Where do I even begin?!
Nancy was nothing short of incredible. From the moment of first contact, she wanted to know all the fine details of my business and offerings so that she could begin to plan my photo shoot.
Her attention to detail was impeccable, especially as it was my first real business photoshoot; I was a fish out of water, so she gave me advice and knew how to connect with me to bring out the best in me.
The amount of time, energy and effort put into my day I never would have expected and when she would show me some sneaky shots on the camera… I was floored already at how amazing the photos had looked.

We had the pleasure of having Nancy photograph us as a new family of 4!
Before the photo day, she provided suggestions for outfits and assessed our spaces for the best photos.
On the day, she was lovely and warm, taking her time to get to know us and, more importantly, our busy toddler. She captured some beautiful natural moments of us together that we will cherish forever.
Can’t believe how much our little girl has changed already! Thank you, Nancy, for these lifetime memories!

We booked her in between Christmas and New Years to do a family photo shoot with our mum before she passed away from cancer.
Nancy was super accommodating and professional. The price was fair, and she went above and beyond to get the photos we wanted.
Our family's single favourite photo with mum was taken by Nancy, and that alone is priceless.
If you're looking for a local professional photographer, Nancy is the one to go to. Thank you

Wow, truly what could I say?
Nancy is amazing; not only did she do a fantastic job capturing our love on our engagement and wedding photos, but she also did an amazing job on our 2x newborn shoots, with a fussy bubba who didn't want to sleep. She remained calm and professional, even willing to rock our little one to sleep and 'shush' him.
Puts in so much effort for the finer details!
Words cannot describe how happy I am with the service Nancy has offered, not once but 4 times! Definitely my go-to for photography!
Hi, I'm Nancy.
I've been photographing Adelaide families for over 12 years, and honestly, I still love it. Newborns, growing families, christenings, business owners building something they're proud of. Every session is different, and that's what keeps me going.
I work in your home or at my favourite outdoor locations around Mawson Lakes, Para Hills and Largs Bay. No studio, no travel fee, no pressure to have everything looking perfect before I arrive.
Babies cry. Toddlers run in the opposite direction. Someone always forgets to brush their hair. Years from now, none of that will matter. What will matter is having photographs that remind you what this time actually felt like.
Most of my clients tell me afterwards that it was nothing like they expected. Easier, calmer, and more fun than they thought it would be.
I'm a mum of three, so I understand the chaos and the mental load, and the feeling that you're always waiting for the right time. In my experience, the right time rarely arrives. Life just keeps moving.
My background is in early childhood education, and I'm currently studying counselling. I bring a lot of patience and calm into every session, whether that's settling a newborn or helping a nervous parent relax.
A lot of my families book again. Some I've been photographing since their first baby. That's the part I'm most proud of.
If something here feels like the right fit, I'd love to hear from you.
