Welcome

Welcome to my blog for my website, Linda Kitson Photography. I am a portrait photographer, based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, and specialise in maternity, newborn, baby, child and family photography.

Here you will find favourite images from my sessions, and other information that I want to share with everyone.

I would love to be able to capture your shots, for no matter what stage your family is at, whether it is maternity, newborn, baby, or family shots that you have in mind. Please check out my website, and then contact me to book your session.

Miss B – a bub in a rush to meet the world | Melbourne Newborn Photographer

Meet Miss B, who decided she did not really want to wait the whole time, and so came 6 weeks early, definitely an early Christmas present (and what better present could you ask for).

Initially she decided that seeing what was going on would be far more interesting than going to sleep, but eventually she lost the battle, and so we were able to capture some wonderful images. I love bubs at this beautiful stage, which is so very fleeting.

I know dad will particularly love the last 2 here, should have the gallery ready with the rest of them soon, hope you both enjoy these in the meantime.

Mr Z – 2 week old boy with a smile | Melbourne newborn photographer

Good to be back on the air again, computers urgh!!!! Anyway, after a change of ISP, I am back again.

Up into the ranges I met Mr Z and his parents, who were pleased to show off the latest addition to the family. At first Mr Z wasn’t sure he wanted to miss all the excitement of the photoshoot, but eventually he succumbed to the heat, and gave us plenty of time to get some beautiful sleeping shots. He even gave the most darling little smile that will warm his mums heart when she sees it, I am sure. So happy to meet you all, and the gallery will be up in a few days. Enjoy this sneak peek.

3 week old beauty | Melbourne Newborn Photographer

Last week I met Miss A, who has her mum and dad totally captivated, and on meeting her, I can certainly see why. At first, she was not having any of our attempts to woo her back to sleep, but with a some persistance we were able to persuade her to ignore all the exciting goings on, and to go to sleep for us.
Enjoy the sneak peek B & J, I will let you know once the gallery is ready.

A six month old smile | Melbourne baby photographer

Young Mr P had me with his very first little smile – it just lit up his whole face, mind you he did make us work quite hard to get them, usually managing to sneak them in while we were changing things around, and then got a cheeky little look about him while he poked his tongue out at us.  But he gave us some beautiful expressions, and I am glad I was able to capture them.  Hope you enjoy the sneak look L, will let you know once the gallery is ready.

Miss P – an early present for mum | Melbourne Newborn Photographer

Last week I was lucky enough to meet Miss P and her mum – Miss P came a little earlier than intended, obviously was eager to get out and about into the world.  But I am always more than happy to squeeze in newborn sessions,  She was so obliging, going to sleep very nicely for us for a couple of hours just after I got there, so I was able to try out a couple of new props, and we even caught a little smile hovering there once or twice.  Hope you enjoy this little sneak peek C, the rest of the gallery will be ready soon.

Mr R – who didn’t want to miss a thing | Melbourne Newborn Photographer

Meet Mr R – who had made sure he got all his sleeping done before I got there, as he didn’t want to miss a minute of what was going on during his photo shoot.  Even when his eyes started getting heavy, he was very determined to fight it off.  I am just betting mum got a decent rest later that day, as I am sure he slept very well afterwards.  In spite of his lack of wanting to sleep though, we still got some great shots.  Here is a little sneak peek J, and I will have the rest up in a gallery for you shortly.

Miss S – 1 month old sweetheart | Melbourne Baby Photographer

This week I met Miss S and her family, who are absolutely smitten by her (and when you look at that gorgeous little face, it is easy to see why).  She strongly resisted sleeping but despite this, we were able to get some great shots.  Hope you enjoy these mum & dad, will let you know when the gallery is ready.

A bayside babe – Miss A | Melbourne newborn photographer

This week saw me journey down the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, to Rosebud.  It was a glorious picture perfect day, with the bay as still as a mill pond.  I was lucky enough to meet Miss A and her mum.  Miss A certianly put us through our paces, and made me work hard for these, but I think the results were worth it.  Hope you like these C, will let you know once the gallery is ready.

8 month old sweetie – just full of fun | Melbourne child photographer

This week I met Miss S and her mum.  Miss S was a little shy at first, but soon had us cracking up with her beautiful little smiles.  Her monkey was a firm favourite too, who posed in a few shots with Miss S.  Hope you really like the sneak peak C, will let you know once the gallery is ready for viewing.

Have I said how much I love newborns – welcome Mr L | Melbourne newborn photographer

A few months ago, I was lucky enough to meet C & V, and do a maternity shoot for them, so I was eager to meet their new little one.  Baby L was beautiful, but clearly he didn’t think I was working hard enough, so wanted to make sure I was, sending me home with a wee bit of washing.  Ah, the joys of newborns!!  He made us work hard to get him asleep, but we got some great shots when he did finally nod off.  Hope you enjoy the sneak peek C & V, and will have the gallery ready shortly.
