Newborn & Family · Berwick
Berwick is about 10 minutes from our Beaconsfield studio. When your baby arrives a few days early, and they often do, that short distance makes everything easier. We are not rearranging a drive across Melbourne; we are just down the road.
J Y Productions is Jay and Yesha, a married couple who started the business in 2018. Between us we speak English, Hindi and Gujarati, which helps when grandparents come to meet the baby. Our newest newborn work is on Instagram at @j.y_productions_motherhood.
Home sessions are popular with Berwick parents, and it is easy to see why. No car seat, no packing, no timing feeds around a drive. We come to you, find the best window light in the house and set up somewhere quiet. Older siblings stay in their own space with their own toys, which usually means happier little ones.
If you would prefer to come out, the studio is close by. Either way, the closeness means we can hold a flexible window around your due date and shift the session by a day or two if your baby has other plans.
What that closeness means for your session:
For family photos with older children, Berwick has lovely outdoor spaces. We keep things playful: games, silly noises and a race or two across the lawn bring out real smiles far better than asking everyone to say cheese.
Berwick is close enough to Beaconsfield that either option works easily, so it really comes down to what suits your family. Our honest recommendation: home for newborns if you would rather not move the baby, and the studio if you like a simple, timeless look.
There is no need to clean the whole house for a home session. We usually only need one or two rooms.

We photograph newborns in their first 5 to 14 days, while they are still sleepy and curled up. The best time to contact us is at around 20 to 30 weeks, so we can keep a flexible window open around your due date rather than guessing at a single day.
Planning ahead for the first year? Milestone portraits suit 6 to 10 months, and a cake smash suits 11 to 12 months.
For Berwick families, being this close means we rarely have to squeeze you into a gap built around travel time.
Wilson Botanic Park has lakes, lawns and a playground, which can help keep kids happy between photos. Note the park’s own conditions of entry, such as no bikes or scooters.
Sweeney Reserve sits at the Berwick end of the Hallam Valley Trail, with playgrounds, wetlands and open grass for a more casual feel.
We mention these as nearby ideas only. We are not claiming past shoots at either.
