#1 CHOICE FOR BABY & NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY MELBOURNE
From Your Heart to Our Lens: Preserving Melbourne’s Most Precious Beginnings, One Frame at a Time
ALANA OPERATES FROM A PRIVATE, PURPOSE-BUILT HOME PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO IN CLYDE, MELBOURNE
ENSURE YOUR BABY'S SAFETY WITH A TRUSTED, EXPERIENCED NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER
Why Experience and Safety Matter?
Newborn photography is an unregulated industry, meaning there are no mandatory certifications or qualifications required to call oneself a "Newborn Photographer." This unsettling reality can leave expecting parents vulnerable, as anyone can pick up a camera and market themselves without any formal training.
Many parents assume that professional photographers have the necessary credentials, but this is not always the case. Unfortunately, untrained photographers may unknowingly jeopardise your baby’s safety through improper posing or positioning, which can obstruct breathing or lead to injury.
In contrast to regulated fields like medicine, where organisations ensure practitioners are certified, the absence of such oversight in photography places the onus on parents to vet their photographers carefully.
Don’t compromise your baby’s safety for the sake of beautiful photos or lower costs. Ensure that the photographer you choose has extensive experience and specialised training in safely posing newborns.
