A little lion, a big adventure. The Cub Chronicles captures your baby’s first year in all its wild, beautiful, unforgettable moments.
For busy parents who don’t want to miss a moment and to be in the photos!
The Cub Chronicles captures your cub’s little story, told in three chapters.
Watch your cub grow before your eyes.
Three sessions. One unforgettable first year.
Choose the finish that suits your family best — a handcrafted heirloom album or a custom framed montage for your wall to hold every milestone with a simple 12-month plan to make it easy.
Your cub’s story begins here.
Celebrate this magical stage with a maternity session in my studio (or on location if preferred). We’ll capture the glow, the anticipation, and the intimate connection between you and your little one before they arrive. These images are timeless, artistic, and full of heart — a beautiful prelude to the year ahead.
Ideal timing: Around 32–38 weeks.
Tiny toes, sleepy snuggles, and all the delicate details you never want to forget.
The newborn session is all about preserving those first, fleeting days. From soft curls to tiny fingers and toes, every moment is photographed with care, creativity, and a touch of Lion & Cub magic. These memories are fleeting, but your images will last forever.
Ideal timing: 7-12 days or 6 weeks (if additional time is needed).
Your little cub is on the move — and full of personality.
When your baby can sit up on their own, we’ll capture hand dimples, sibling cuddles, and those tremendous cheeks in my studio. This session is playful, candid, and full of life — perfectly reflecting this delightful stage of curiosity and growth.
Ideal timing: Around 6–8 months.
A whole year of firsts, wrapped into one unforgettable session.
The one-year session celebrates your cub’s first birthday, their personality, and everything they’ve become. From tiny adventures to cake-smash fun, this session is lively, joyful, and a beautiful way to close The Cub Chronicles with a flourish.
Ideal timing: Around 12 months.
The Cub Chronicles can include a bespoke 10 x 10-inch linen album, bringing together your favourite images from all three sessions into one beautiful keepsake. Thoughtfully designed to honour your baby’s first year, the album can include personalised embossing or a photo cover, as well as a love letter written by you or a meaningful poem, creating a piece that feels deeply personal to your family.
A framed montage is a beautiful way to display multiple portraits in one elegant piece, allowing the story of your baby’s first year to be seen and enjoyed every day. Designed to showcase a selection of favourite images from your Cub Chronicles sessions, each frame is custom made in your choice of profile and colour for a finish that suits your home beautifully. It is a meaningful alternative to an album, combining several treasured moments in one timeless artwork.
The Cub Chronicles includes 3 sessions in our studio across the first year of your baby’s life. Choose from:
Maternity, newborn and one-year-old photo sessions in our studio.
OR
Newborn, Sitter 6-8 months and a one-year session in our studio.
Because this year only happens once. 🦁✨
At the end of your baby’s first year, you’ll hold something truly special. A handcrafted heirloom album filled with every milestone, every chubby grin, every tiny detail you never want to forget. It’s not just a photo book; it’s your cub’s story, told beautifully and built to last for generations.
Your spot is locked in for the whole year, so there’s no scrambling for session dates — I’ll be right there to guide you from bump to birthday. And with a simple 12-month payment plan, you can savour the experience without the stress.
All of my sessions include family photos, and I always encourage siblings, parents and grandparents to join in as these photos capture your love and connection and tell your unique story.
Maternity sessions can be held in my studio, with the option of Sydney Park (included). There is the option of the beach at sunset (additional fee applies).
Newborn sessions take place in my studio as I have all the props here such as safety posing beanbag and gorgeous throws, beanies and tiny teddies.
Sitter sessions are photographed in my studio — a simple, cosy space that lets your baby’s sweet personality shine. (see the video on home page which shows a sitter session in studio with Sydney Park)
One-year sessions can take place in the studio or Sydney Park (included), or we can plan a beach or custom session for an additional fee.
Yes! Each session includes a selection of digital images, delivered in your own private online gallery. This is where you can download high-resolution images for print and low-resolution images for screens and sharing with family.
As soon as possible! I only take a limited number of clients each month, so reserving your spot during pregnancy is essential.

2. I’ll send all the details and answer any questions.
3. Once you’re ready, complete your contract and deposit to secure your spot.
