Newborn Photography with the Little Oak Studio in Adelaide
These moments we cannot get back but don’t stress, we can help you freeze them through creating perfect photographs that you can cherish for a lifetime! Our approach is all about capturing your little one just as they are—no forced poses, no distractions, just the natural beauty of your baby and the love that surrounds them.
When photographing newborns, safety and comfort always come first. Babies are most often photographed when they’re just weeks old and while they’re sleeping. Generally, Mum and Dad are wrapped up in a beautiful newborn bubble and this is usually their first trip out of the home. We work gently and patiently to ensure parents and baby stay relaxed and at ease.
Natural & Timeless Newborn Photography
We believe in photographing newborns in a way that feels authentic to your family. Whether it’s in the cozy comfort of our purpose-built Tea Tree Gully studio or our beautiful outdoor setting, our focus is on creating timeless images that tell your unique story. We love capturing tiny details—those delicate fingers, soft wisps of hair, and the way your baby fits perfectly in your arms.

There are no overwhelming props or stiff poses—just you, your little one, and the love you share.

Hello and welcome!
I’m Rachel, the artist (and baby whisperer) behind The Little Oak Studio.
As a mother of four beautiful cherubs (and I use that term loosely!), I completely understand how those first few weeks with a newborn can feel like a total blur. You don’t want to forget these precious moments... (trust me, you’ll need them later to remind yourself just how tiny and innocent they once were!).
On a serious note, life with children is truly incredible. I know just how much your little ones mean to you, and I understand how important it is to have beautiful photographs to cherish for years to come.
If you’d love to capture this fleeting time in a way that feels natural and heartfelt, please reach out—I’d absolutely love to hear from you!
In just a few simple steps you can take home your very own beautiful family keepsakes, here’s how…
Your first step is to book your session. You can choose to have your experience in our beautiful studio or at our stunning outdoor location. These are beautiful moments of togetherness where we capture the joy of your family.
Around two weeks after you've sat for your photography session, you'll come back to the studio where we will reveal your gallery of gorgeous images. You can then choose to purchase from our prints and products if you wish.
Please allow 4-6 weeks for your final prints and products to be ready for collection from the studio.
We promise your beautiful photographs will be well worth the wait, ready to be cherished for generations!
Here’s a selection of our beautifully handcrafted, locally-sourced heirlooms your Family will have the opportunity to create and take home to cherish for generations to come!
