Whangārei Maternity & Newborn Photography

Stunning Maternity & Newborn Photos You Can't Wait to Print

Now is the perfect time to book
your beach maternity session

Whether it’s your first baby or your last, I encourage you to take a moment, at least once in your life, to capture the beautiful memories of this incredible journey. It’s not just about the photos—it’s about celebrating the love, strength, and joy that comes with welcoming a new life. These moments pass quickly, but the memories you create now will last a lifetime

Your WHANGAREI MATERNITY & NEWBORN Photography

I avoided booking Maternity or Newborn portraits with both my babies—I worried about how I’d look and had no idea how sessions worked. So I’ve designed my Maternity & Newborn experience to make it easy, relaxed, and stress-free—so you can confidently be in the photos with your precious newborn.

FEELING ANXIOUS AND A BIT NERVOUS ABOUT BOOKING A SESSION?

Experience
Just a couple of things I'd love to re-assure you about:

  • Newborn photos are a team effort between you and me. I have lots of tricks up my sleeve for getting your baby to sleep so it's not all on you. But to be honest lots of babies don't sleep and we still get beautiful, natural family photos of you all.
  • Before your session I'll send you a full guide on how it all works, suggestions for what everyone else in the family can wear, how to prepare for your session and what to expect on the day so you feel comfortable and relaxed before you arrive
  • I have a small, beautiful wardrobe of dresses you can use for your session. They are designed to flatter pregnant and new Mums so you don't need to stress about what to wear.
  • I have beautiful rompers and wraps for baby so you don't need to worry about sorting outfits for baby
  • And most of all, I have two children of my own (plus 15 nieces & nephews), so I am very relaxed about going with the flow and guiding your family through the session to make sure we capture beautiful photos for you, no matter how awake (or not) your baby might be or how co-operative (or not) your toddler might be!

Jump onto the contact form and let me know a little bit about what you are after for your session. If you have a date in mind you can pop that in there too.

I will send you a Full Session Guide and Info Pack which goes over all the ways I work with you, to have you feeling relaxed and confident for your session.

It includes packages and pricing, plus a look at some of the beautiful printed products I can also arrange for you.  

1. Say Hello

Once you have decided you would like to go ahead and book in your session, let me know via email and we'll get things moving. We'll get a date confirmed and then I will invoice you for your Session Fee. Once that's paid, I will be in touch to book in your Zoom Planning Call.

This is a quick 30 min session to answer any questions you have and chat about what you are all going to wear. We'll also confirm the time and location for your session. We'll talk about what you would like to do with your images once we have captured them and make a plan around which package suits you best.

Busy Mums love these sessions for giving them the confidence to work out what everyone will wear. And it gives us a chance to "meet" so you feel way more relaxed when we meet in person at the beach for your session. 

2. let's plan your session

3. AFTER YOUR ZOOM PLANNING session

You’ll receive an invoice for the package that you have chosen. This is due for payment 10 days before your session.  

Then a week out, I will be in touch to remind you of your session time, location and what to bring.  And I can help via text if you need any last minute advice on outfit combinations.

I will contact you on the morning of the shoot via text just to check in and we can make sure everything is good to go with the weather. (Because you know what Northland weather is like!)

Then it's time to have some fun and enjoy a relaxed hour on the beach with your family. I will guide you through the whole session so there's no need to worry about how to pose or getting the kids to look at the camera - that's all on me!

4. PHOTO SHOOT TIME

Approx 3 weeks after your session, your gallery of gorgeous memories will be delivered to you via an online gallery.

You’ll be able to download your print and social media sized sets of digital images from this gallery. 


5. ONLINE GALLERY DELIVERY

If you love more images than you have in the package you initially chose, then upgrades are available directly from within your gallery.

You’ll also be able to order gift prints from my professional print lab, directly from your gallery. This way you can feel confident that the quality of them will be perfect!

6. GALLERY upgrades

If you have chosen a collage frame, a wall gallery or an album, you have the option of visiting my home studio for a complimentary session to get everything organised.

I have sample frames and albums for you to look and we can chat about any tweaks you’d like made to edits before we send them to production..

Having my maternity photos done with Tracey was such a special experience. She provided some stunning outfits that I felt so beautiful in, and was great at making me feel relaxed during the shoot.

She was excellent at communicating how to pose as well capturing some great candid shots too.

I would highly recommend Tracey as a photographer.

LISA

Tracey is amazing at her job! We had a wonderful time with Tracey at her home studio when we had a newborn photoshoot.

Tracey had beautiful dresses to chose from for the shoot and the cutest newborn rompers. She made us feel so comfortable and are absolutely in love with our photos.

We are so happy we chose Tracey to capture these special moments of our family and look forward to working with Tracey again!

LIFESTYLE  NEWBORN

TINA & her boys

We had the most wonderful experience with Tracey for both our maternity and newborn photoshoots. From start to finish, she made us feel comfortable, listened to our vision, and captured such special, intimate moments that we’ll cherish forever.

During our maternity shoot, Tracey created a relaxed environment that allowed our family to be ourselves, resulting in natural and beautiful images. Then, for our newborn session, she worked so patiently with our little one, capturing her tiny details and precious moments with so much care.

The photos are stunning, and we couldn’t be happier with them. Tracey’s attention to detail and her ability to create a calm, friendly atmosphere made the entire process so enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer to capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments!

NATHALIA + TAL

Tracey Morris Photography is awesome! We chose Tracey as she captured some stunning photos of us at Matapouri Beach for our first wedding anniversary last year. Since we are having a baby, we knew we wanted to choose Tracey again to capture our newborn in the first few weeks.

Tracey had a great bundle that included Maternity photos too and since the photos always turn out amazing we did them too. We had our maternity photos at her home studio. This was comfortable and relaxing. Tracey guides you through the whole process and it feels very natural. I am looking forward to seeing our newborn photos and our first photos as a new family.

Thanks again Tracey!

I had the most amazing experience with Tracey! With her style and guidance she made me feel comfortable and radiant.

Her expertise is evident in the beautiful photos she captured.

After seeing those, I know I would have regretted not doing the maternity shoot. Thank you Tracey!

Emmanouela

Thank you so much for my maternity shoot photos.

I didn’t know what to expect as I’ve never done a shoot like this before and was nervous but you made me feel so comfortable and confident once we got going!

Your home studio was so comfy and cosy the vibe definitely there! I’m glad amongst getting to work we got to have a chat before and get to know a little about each other, it was great when it came to taking pictures when we could chat here and there!

I am so in love with these pictures and can’t wait to work with you again!
