What’s included

Sessions can be tailored around underwater, land or drone imagery — or a combination of all three.

Each session combines three core elements:

  • A unique water-based portrait session, captured partially in the water or fully underwater in the ocean or a heated pool — using natural movement, light and texture.

  • A land-based maternity shoot, using a clean, natural outdoor style

  • A landscape portrait - also taken with a drone. I take you to a carefully chosen coastal location and create a wider, environmental image that places you within the scene

In addition, every session includes:

  • Pre-session planning and creative direction

  • Drone imagery capturing you in the surrounding environment

  • Fine art long exposure imagery

  • 25+ professionally edited images

  • Digital delivery

    We work with light, water conditions, and location to create something unique to you.

Designed Around You

Each session is tailored to you — your comfort in the water, your stage of pregnancy, and the style you’re drawn to.

The experience combines three elements:

  • A signature underwater portrait session — capturing natural movement, light, and form beneath the surface

  • A land-based maternity shoot — a clean, relaxed outdoor style you’d expect from a traditional session

  • A signature landscape portrait — placing you within a carefully chosen coastal location to create a wider, environmental image designed to be printed and framed

Together, these create a complete set of images that feel both personal and visually striking.

For the land and aerial elements, I typically shoot along Sydney’s coastline — primarily around Manly, as well as Bondi and surrounding beaches.

If you have a specific location in mind — including inland settings — I’m happy to tailor the shoot to your vision. If getting in the water isn’t your thing, that’s completely fine. We can create something just as powerful on land or at a location that feels right to you. Whether it’s ocean, inland, or a mix of elements, the shoot is tailored to your vision and comfort.

This is a unique chapter in your life

Pregnancy is a time that moves quickly — and once it passes, it’s gone.

This experience captures it in a way that feels natural, timeless, and true to you — something you’ll come back to for years.

If it’s been on your mind, now’s the time.

  • ​"I had the most incredible experience during my underwater maternity shoot. Leo was so calm and supportive which allowed me to truly relax, have fun and enjoy the magic of the moment. The photos turned out stunning and they're so unique!"

    Chiara P

  • "An incredibly beautiful and fun experience - I was made to feel completely at ease every step of the way and captured truly timeless underwater images as a result."

    Cassandra C

  • "Thank you for capturing such a special moment in my life Leo! At 36 weeks pregnant, in the ocean, on the land, feeling the fresh air…you made me feel comfortable and at ease, both in and out of the water. Memories through your photography that I will cherish forever, I can’t wait to share these with my little one. Thank you!"

How It Works

  • Tell me a bit about you — your stage of pregnancy, timing, and the type of shoot you’re drawn to.

  • We’ll design your session across land, the air, sea or pool — including location, timing, and the overall feel of the images.

    Everything is guided, simple, and tailored to you.

  • We monitor ocean and weather conditions closely and coordinate a time that works for your schedule and delivers the best possible water clarity and light.

    Conditions can change quickly. If they significantly impact image quality, we offer a complimentary reshoot.

    Alternatively, sessions can be moved to a private pool. During winter months, heated pools are used to ensure comfort and consistent results.

  • You’ll receive a curated set of professionally edited images — designed as frameable, artistic pieces that feel natural, timeless, and uniquely yours.

    A mix of underwater, land, and aerial perspectives come together to capture both the moment and the environment around you.
