Behind J Y Productions are Jay and Yesha. We founded the business in 2018, our studio is in Beaconsfield, South-East Melbourne, and we are happy to chat in English, Hindi or Gujarati. For a look at recent newborn sessions, visit @j.y_productions_motherhood.

Newborn sessions in Officer

Whether you choose the studio or your home, we keep things slow and calm. The baby sets the pace, and we fit the photos around feeds and cuddles.

Big brothers and sisters can feel a bit left out when a new baby arrives. Before the session, talk to them about their important job in the photos. On the day, we photograph them first and give them simple tasks, like holding the baby’s hand or giving a gentle kiss.

What an Officer session looks like:

The studio is minutes away, so the trip is barely a trip.
Older siblings get their own moment in the spotlight.
We follow your baby’s lead. If they need a feed, we stop. If they need a cuddle, we wait.
Parent and sibling photos are part of every session, never an afterthought.
Alongside the photos you get a short 30-second film, lovely to send to family who could not be there.
A sneak peek arrives within 2 days, while you are still in the newborn fog and want something to look at straight away.

Family photos in Officer

Officer’s newer parks are great for family sessions, with adventure play and open space to keep older kids moving. Moving kids make natural, joyful photos.

Why families choose our family sessions

A playful approach that brings out real laughter.
Short, simple group shots so nobody gets restless.
Room for pets if they are part of the family.
Gentle guidance for parents who feel awkward on camera.

Studio session or in your home?

Being so close, many Officer families choose the studio for convenience. Home is the right pick if you want to stay put during those first days.

We never force a pose. If a sibling is not in the mood, we simply try again a little later.

Book your session

Message us with your due date and a little about your family, including any big brothers, sisters or pets. We will come back within 24 to 48 hours with options for Officer. You can enquire online, call +61 435 222 666 or email Hello@jyproductions.com.au.

Booking and delivery

Booking: after a short call, a 10% retainer holds your newborn window.

What you receive: 20 to 30 edited photos and a 30-second film.

Delivery: a sneak peek within 2 days and the full gallery within 14 days.

When to book

Aim for the first 5 to 14 days after birth. That is when newborns sleep deeply and fold into those tiny poses parents love. Reach out at 20 to 30 weeks pregnant and we will pencil in a window around your due date, then lock in the day once your baby is here.

Later milestones work too: 6 to 10 months for sitting-up portraits and 11 to 12 months for a cake smash.

Living next door to the studio means shifting your newborn session by a day or two is rarely a problem.

Around Officer

Officer District Park on Lansell Avenue is a regional adventure and nature park with a hilltop lookout, accessible paths and a wetland area. It is being built in stages, so we check what is open before your session.

EA Owen Reserve on Dickie Road offers a short woodland bushwalk for a quieter, earthy look.

These are nearby public places; we are not claiming past shoots at either.
