A Beautiful Waterfall Maternity Photography Session in South Auckland
Pregnancy is such a special chapter in life, and every family has their own unique story. One of the things I love most about maternity photography is finding beautiful locations that allow that story to unfold naturally.
One of my favourite locations feels like you’ve stepped into another world, yet it’s only a short drive from my South Auckland studio
Surrounded by flowing water, native greenery and peaceful scenery, it was the perfect setting to celebrate this exciting time before baby arrives.
A Relaxed Outdoor Maternity Experience
Outdoor maternity sessions are all about slowing down and enjoying the moment.
Rather than feeling overly posed, I gently guide you into flattering positions that feel natural and comfortable, allowing your connection with your baby, partner and family to shine through.
The waterfall provided a stunning backdrop while still keeping the focus exactly where it belongs – on this beautiful growing family.

Beautiful Gowns Included
One of the things my clients love is having access to my growing collection of maternity gowns and dresses.
For this session, we chose a soft, elegant gown that complemented the natural surroundings beautifully. The flowing fabric moved effortlessly with the breeze, creating timeless images that feel both elegant and organic.
I provide a carefully curated client wardrobe of maternity gowns and dresses, helping every mum choose the perfect look for both the location and her own personal style.
More Than One Location in a Single Session
One of the best parts of my Deluxe Maternity Collection is the flexibility to create a variety of beautiful looks.
We began this session at the waterfall before moving to my exclusive outdoor lifestyle area, creating two completely different styles of maternity portraits.
After our outdoor portraits, my client decided to extend her session so we could also create a collection of elegant studio maternity portraits. By the end of the afternoon she had three completely different looks from one unforgettable maternity experience.
If you can’t decide between outdoor or studio maternity photos, you don’t always have to choose. We can create a session that’s tailored to you.
Favourite Outdoor Moments
Before finishing the session, here are a couple of my favourite images we created at the waterfall. The soft morning light, flowing water and beautiful native surroundings made this one of my favourite outdoor maternity sessions in South Auckland
Finishing with Studio Maternity Portraits
To finish the session, we moved into the studio for a collection of classic maternity portraits. Studio images have a timeless feel and pair beautifully with outdoor photographs, giving my clients an incredible amount of variety from a single session
The Best Time for Maternity Photos
I recommend booking your maternity session between 30 and 35 weeks.
At this stage your bump has a beautiful shape while you’re usually still comfortable enough to enjoy your session and move around easily.
