FAQ
What happens if it rains?
If the weather doesn't cooperate, that's completely okay. We can either reschedule or move to an indoor location if that suits your session. I always keep an eye on the forecast and we'll decide together what makes the most sense.
When is the best time to book your maternity photography?
Maternity photography sessions are best booked between 30 and 34 weeks, when your belly is beautifully round. This gives us a little buffer in case Sydney weather means we need to reschedule, or if your little one decides to arrive a bit early.
When is the best time to book a newborn photography session?
Newborns are best photographed within their first three weeks of life, when they are still tiny, fresh, and tend to sleep more deeply. I recommend booking your newborn session during your third trimester so everything is organised and ready for your little one's arrival.
What happens if my baby comes earlier or later than the due date?
No need to stress. Babies tend to arrive on their own schedule! I only take a limited number of newborn bookings each month, so I keep my calendar flexible around due dates. Once your little one arrives, just let me know, and if your booked date doesn’t work anymore, we’ll find a session time that suits.
Do you provide newborn outfits and wraps?
Yes, I have a collection of newborn wraps and simple outfits available for your newborn session. I love keeping things timeless and natural, so everything is soft, neutral, and chosen to photograph beautifully.
This is our first time in front of a professional camera and we're feeling a bit nervous. Will you guide us?
Absolutely! At Sanaz Mt Photography, you don't need to 'know' how to pose or what to do with your hands. I'll gently guide you along the way and keep the session relaxed and easy.
STEP BY STEP BOOKING PROCESS:
Here’s how we’ll bring your session to life:
1. Let’s chat
We’ll talk about the kind of session you’re dreaming of, and find a date and location that suits you perfectly.
2. Secure your spot
A $100 non-refundable retainer and a signed contract are required to lock in your booking (the retainer comes off your final package price!).
Once that’s done, I’ll send over your style guide to help you feel prepped and excited.
3. Gallery delivery & more
After your session, your final images will land in your inbox within 2–5 weeks, get ready to relive all the magic.
You’ll also be able to order beautiful, professional prints and wall art directly from your gallery, so your memories don’t just live on screens.
4. A little thank you from me
I love photographing families as they grow. Returning clients receive 10% off their next full-price session, just a small way to say thanks for coming back.
