Newborn and Maternity Photography

Blink and it's gone..

Some moments only happen once.

Newborns change in the blink of an eye. Tummies become cradles, and tiny fingers soon reach for the world. These fleeting seasons of life, maternity and newborn, deserve to be captured and remembered.

As a Sydney maternity and newborn photographer with over 15 years of experience, I create a calm, comfortable space at my cosy, sunlit studio where your story unfolds naturally.

Before these days fade into memories, let’s capture the beauty of now - the quiet connection, the wonder, the love that only grows stronger with time.

THE NEWBOrn Photography EXPERIENCE

Newborn sessions that are calm, gentle, and baby-led.

My studio is kept at a cosy 25°C to ensure your little one feels snug and content. Before we begin, I encourage a feed and fresh nappy to help your baby settle, and we take as many breaks as needed throughout. You will be offered privacy during feeding time.Every session moves at your baby’s pace - never rushed and always guided by comfort and care.

I’ll gently capture the tiny details you’ll never want to forget - the soft lips, delicate wrinkles, and those precious first connections between you and your newborn. My approach is natural, safe, and filled with warmth, because these moments deserve to be remembered just as they are.

They’ll never be this tiny again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an absolutely amazing experience with Rohan Photography and couldn’t be happier with the beautiful memories he captured for our family.
Rohan is not only a humble and incredibly talented photographer, but truly an artist who understands emotions and knows how to bring them to life through his photographs. During our family photoshoot, I watched him capture genuine emotions, little moments, and expressions in a way that made every picture feel alive.

What makes Rohan even more special is the way he connects with people. Even though we were completely new to him, he made us feel so comfortable, as if we had known him for years. He doesn’t treat you like just another customer — he treats you like family or close friends, and that makes the entire photoshoot experience so enjoyable and natural.

One thing I truly admire about him is the passion and effort he puts into every photograph. You can see that he doesn’t simply take pictures; he creates art and freezes emotions in time. There is a soul and a story behind his work.

I would genuinely encourage anyone reading this review to book a photoshoot with Rohan at least once. You will quickly understand why he is so passionate about photography and why he is the perfect person to capture your family, your emotions, and your most precious memories.

Thank you, Rohan, for creating such beautiful memories for our family. Your photography truly brings magic to the moments we want to remember forever. Highly recommended! 🦋📸

Rohan was not just a professional who is great at what he does, but also provided a warm and friendly atmosphere for all of us. He got our 18 month old daughter to smile and laugh so much that the photos ended up looking stunning. Thanks, mate. What a wonderful experience that truly was. Get your family portraits done with Rohan. It doesn't get better.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We loved our photography sessions with Rohan! He made us feel really comfortable from the beginning and that continued throughout all the sessions, including with our baby! We’ve done a maternity shoot and newborn shoot and are booked in to do a family shoot. He gave us plenty of advice and ideas and the quality of the prints are beautiful. Worth the time and money.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rohan's work is truly something special. It’s not just about taking beautiful photos. it’s about capturing memories and telling a story through every image.

We had the opportunity to see his work and slideshow, and honestly, we were blown away. You can immediately see the passion, creativity, and heart he puts into what he does. His work made us realise just how meaningful professional photography can be.

Although we unfortunately had to make the difficult decision not to push through with our package due to our current priorities and budget, I genuinely want to say how impressed we are with Rohan and his work. It’s the kind of photography you know you’ll treasure for years.

Thank you, Rohan, for your time, patience, and for sharing your incredible work with us. We’re truly grateful for the experience, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for someone who can turn precious moments into beautiful memories. ❤️

Thanks for your wonderful and kind words Jason. Truly appreciate it and hope to see you in the future to capture more memories of your beautiful family ❤️

FAQ

When is the best time to photograph my newborn?

The ideal window is between 7-20 days after birth, when babies are still sleepy, curl up easily and stay settled. But beautiful images can be created at any age as each stage has its own charm.

You definitely get to be in the photos! Along with capturing tiny movements and the little featurettes of your newborn, I love to showcase those tender moments of first connection between you and your baby.

Will the photos be of our newborn only or do we also get to be in them?

How long does the photoshoot take?

Sessions usually last 2-3 hours, allowing plenty of time for feeding, changing, and cuddles. All newborn sessions are baby led so everything moves at your baby’s pace and level of comfort.

All my newborn sessions take place at my boutique Ashfield studio. It is thoroughly sanitised prior to every session and is kept at a balmy 25C throughout - dads get your shorts on, I know we run hot ;)

A change table is also provided for convenient nappy changes.

Where does the photo shoot take place?

Upon booking, I send out a professional styling guide that has all the information on getting you and your partner looking dapper at our session.

I also have a curated collection of soft wraps, rompers, bonnets and blankets. You’re also welcome to bring something meaningful from home.

What should we wear? Do you provide wraps and blankets for our newborn?

How do we best prepare our baby for the shoot?

A full feed and fresh nappy before arriving helps your baby settle comfortably. My studio is set to a cosy 25°C to keep them warm and content throughout.

What if my baby doesn't settle or fall sleep?

That’s completely normal. It's a myth that the best photos of a newborn are when they're asleep. If they're still awake after trying to soothe them to sleep after a feed, we will create equally precious photos of them with you showcasing your precious connection.
Mums have often nicknamed me as "baby whisperer" halfway through a session, so rest assured that I'll work on gently settling your baby

When do we get to view our photos?

The edited photos will be ready within a week to 10 days of your portrait session. You will be invited back to my studio to view your images on my 120" screen. I will also guide you through the process of ordering any artwork or digital images packs of your liking.

I am unsure what artwork product works for my home. Can you help?

During your viewing session, I’ll show you true-to-scale mockups of how your chosen artwork will look on the walls of your own home. With a little help from AI magic, I can create realistic previews — all I need from you are a few photos of the wall spaces you’re considering. It’s the perfect way to see exactly how your memories will come to life in your space.

Do you have a pricing guide for the artwork and digital collections?

I most definitely do. You can explore my range of artwork on here. Prices start from $275 for desktop frames

What is your cancellation policy?

All my shoots have a session fee of $200 which secures your booking with me for your chosen date. I allow for one instance of rescheduling as long as it's not on a weekend as they are very popular

Creating visual legacies of families is why I do this

Hey, I'm Rohan :)

After working as a wedding photographer for 15 years, I founded Rohan Traman Families in 2021 as a small boutique studio built around one simple idea - connection.

As a father to 2 kids, I know how quickly time moves and how the simplest moments often become the most treasured. Whether it’s the laughter shared over dinner, the quiet comfort of a cuddle, or the joy of watching your little one discover the world, these are the memories that matter.

In my sunlit, cosy studio, I aim to create a space where families can slow down, be themselves, and see just how powerful their connection truly is.

My approach is warm, natural, and personal - because photography, to me, isn’t just about beautiful images. It’s about preserving the feeling of being together, long after the moment has passed. Because when all is said and done, what we leave behind are the memories we’ve made and the love we’ve shared.
