About Us Moffatt Photography is Brisbane’s best and most-loved photography studio specialising in Newborn, pregnancy and family portraits. Our style is apparent in our gallery. We strive to find the individual in every person and capture it in the lens. The moment a child’s face softens and reveals their unique personality, or when a glimpse of serenity is seen in the eyes of a parent holding their child, we know we have caught something magical. These genuine moments kept still forever and preserved for others to enjoy, are what we hope to achieve with each and every client. As seasoned mothers, we have developed a compassion and patience for the restless newborn, or the toddler who has just discovered the word “No”. This has earned us the nickname “baby whisperer” by some of our clients. To interact with little ones takes a unique gift. We pride ourselves in being able to provide a setting that facilitates a fun and relaxed atmosphere. There will be no “1-2-3 CHEESE”. Be yourself and it will happen naturally. Those cherished moments are the ones that are not prompted. The desire to exceed the expectations of our client is only surpassed by our drive to succeed personally. We am compelled to capture images that are unique and challenge our talents to continually evolve. Impeccable service is essential but even more important is the relationship that is built with each client. When you choose images by Moffatt Photography, you can feel confident in the decision you have made. You have invested your trust in educated, trained, and talented professionals. It is our honour and privilege to share an experience with you.

Whether its your first pregnancy or your last, capturing your journey as your body changes and grows is a beautiful keepsake that you will treasure for the rest of your lives. What to wear: Depending on your level of comfort we suggest either Yoga or plain long black pants, either on there own or combined with a plain black bra. (We do NOT recommend a “boob tube� as these will not give you the support needed to flatter your shape though out the pregnancy.)

shoot while you are still pregnant. Newborn sessions are held between 3 and 10 days after birth. The Studio: Our Moffatt Photography studio is custom built with ducted air-conditioning, change room facilities & piped music (for newborns). Below is a few suggestions on what to wear and bring with you, to make the most out
Newborn / Family
When to Book: We advise you to book your Newborn
of your shoot. What to Bring: We suggest packing only the things you require when going on an outing to the shops as we have heaps of hats and props here. However if you have something special that you would like to bring in as a prop you are more then welcome. If possible, try to time it so your baby is due for a feed when you arrive at the studio, as this will make it easier to pop them straight off to sleep. What to Wear: Your session includes as standard parent and sibling photos. We recommend families wear either Jeans and a plain black top or Jeans and a plain white top. But do note, the studio is heated for baby’s comfort, so you may wish to dress lightly use our change room facilities when required. Session Length: Your newborn session will take no more then 2 hours. We discourage shoots from going any longer as it can become too stressful on the baby and we always put the heath and safety of your newborn first. 9
Cake Smashes
The Cake Smash! For most babies this is the first time they have tasted anything so sugary and sweet, and felt something so soft and squishy. Will they delight in the sweet taste or just play with the cream? Will they make a HUGE mess or delicately play with the icing? We can’t anticipate how each child will react to the cake but what ever they do, we can guarantee it will definitely be something you will want to remember. What to Wear: Cakes smashes are all about getting messy, so make sure you bring a second set of clothes for them to get changed into once the shoot is finished. We recommend cute little dresses, or a skirt and a long beaded necklace for girls. Where as boys look great in denim shorts and a baby tie or a cute little shirt. (Again, remember to avoid loud patterns or logos.) Moffatt Photography will supply a basic cream covered cake, as well as balloons and bunting for the shoot but you are welcome to organise your own if you are looking for something a bit more special. TIP: Come a few weeks before your baby’s birthday party and you will be able to have your photos ready for party day. Come a month before and use them for the invitations!

I had my baby photographed when she was only 3 days old. Of course, as a new mum, I was hesitant about having her posed etc. But Sandra was extremely professional and I actually couldn’t believe how gentle she was with Pepper and through being posed and moved around, hats on and hats off, Pepper stayed asleep the whole time without a whimper. Sandra was very understanding of a baby, and a mothers needs.
Testimonials
After seeing the astonishing work of Moffatt Photography when I was pregnant, I had to immediately book in for newborn and family photos so I didn’t miss out when I had my baby.
The studio was amazing and was the perfect little environment for a newborn.
Sharing the love!
Six months on, I look at my photos every single day and I am so thankful that I had them done, they are priceless and mean the world to me. The photos captured my newborn baby when she was so young, so little and so precious and these are moments I can never recreate. Words cannot describe how thankful I am to have these amazing photos. It is the BEST money I have ever spent and I will recommend you to every mother I know!! Brittany Adams “I would just like to say how extremely impressed my husband & I were with our combined shoots. Sienna Marie’s newborn shoot was by far the best newborn shoot I have been to with my kids. Sandra took the most beautiful family pictures and I would recommend Moffatt Photography over and over again. I’m only sorry that I didn’t know about them sooner as I would have loved for our wedding photos to have been done through you. Thank you so much and we will be sure to see you again soon. “ Sammie & Nigel Smyth “I was looking around for baby photo shoots, and once I had seen the amazing, breathtaking photos Sandra Moffatt from Moffatt Photography had taken, there was no one else I wanted to shoot my son’s newborn photos than her. There is not a day that goes by that I don’t look at Harrison’s newborn photos and smile. Sandra just does an amazing job and I highly recommend her!” Kirstine Moncada “The experience we had with Sandra was fantastic, she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed through our maternity shoot and the newborn shoot. The time she took to capture the right moment was amazing, Sandra and Brendon are such a pleasure to deal with as well ” Heather & Wayne 17
