so close to hello!


37 weeks and counting! Time has flown for Alycia and the beautiful little girl that she is nurturing. But it's so close now, and that means time for some mama pampering and memory making.


Alycia has been in front of my camera before, many years ago, when I was new to Melbourne and still studying my photography degree. A gorgeous beach session with a one of a kind evening gown and we both have such fond memories of that time. But this was a whole different story, maternity boudoir, yes please!


Gourmet juice and a luscious grazing platter awaited Alycia at TDA Studio , my creative home away from home, and I had LOADED my little convertible with all my maternity goodies, and hair and makeup kit. After going through everything together we decided that my brand new black hollywood gown would be stunning against her creamy skin, and to contrast it with white lace and royal blue.

One of the reasons I choose TDA is the variety of looks I can gain in just one space. Peter, the owner has put so much thought and effort into the versatility of his studio, and as you can see, bright and airy, warm and soft, or rich and moody, they are all at home here.


Alycia loved her photos so much she purchased the whole collection, and I am sure that her daughter will love looking at these precious memories.
