Tauranga Newborn Photographer


Welcoming your sweet new arrival is a moment unlike any other — tender, transformative, and often a little bit of a blur. Those first few weeks are filled with love, learning, and countless tiny details you’ll want to hold onto forever. Capturing this fleeting time makes it all the more magical.


From their delicate features and sleepy stretches to those tiny womb curls and first yawns — these are the details that deserve to be remembered. And the beautiful, surreal truth that this perfect little human is all yours.


Newborn sessions with Claire work beautifully in the comfort of your own home. It’s relaxed, personal, and entirely you. Claire thoughtfully incorporates your space, style, and unique family dynamic to create images that feel natural, emotive, and true to your story.


Prefer a more classic setting? Claire also offers studio newborn sessions, using a mix of natural light and professional studio lighting to create soft, timeless images in a calm and cosy environment.


If you’re dreaming of an outdoor session, Claire can suggest tried-and-true locations — or you’re welcome to choose a place that holds meaning for your family. It’s a lovely way to blend beautiful scenery with beautiful memories.


While your new baby is the star of the session, Claire always encourages the whole family to be involved — siblings, partners, and even your furry family members. Being welcomed into your world and capturing these quiet, love-soaked moments is one of Claire’s greatest joys.
