Autumn at MANAWA

The MANAWA Autumn Newborn Experience


There is something beautiful about welcoming a new baby as the seasons begin to change.

The light becomes softer.

The colours become warmer.

Home feels a little more comforting and your baby is changing every single day.


The Autumn Newborn Experience has been created to capture those first precious weeks in a way that feels warm, timeless and completely personal to your family.


This isn't an autumn-themed photoshoot. Autumn is simply the atmosphere. Your baby, your family and the little details that make this chapter yours are always at the heart of the photographs.



Your Autumn Newborn Experience


  • 2–3 hour studio experience
  • 25–35 fully edited images
  • 30 × 45cm ChromaLuxe artwork
  • Beautiful autumn-inspired newborn styling
  • Wrapped portraits, natural newborn portraits and family photographs
  • Access to the MANAWA newborn wardrobe and studio styling
  • Private changing area
  • Light lunch and refreshments
  • Cinematic viewing experience


Your session is completely baby-led. We take our time, allowing for feeding, cuddles, changing and all the little pauses that come with photographing a newborn.


There is never a need to rush.



A little piece of autumn

The studio will be styled with warm, natural textures and beautiful autumnal tones.

Think softness rather than props. Natural materials, beautiful fabrics, gentle colour and understated seasonal details create the feeling of autumn without taking over the photograph.


If you'd like to include a small seasonal detail, we can do that too.

Perhaps a beautiful wooden bunny or another simple Easter detail as the season approaches.


But it will always remain secondary to the photograph itself. Because I want these images to belong to your family for years, not simply to one season.



Your family belongs in these photographs too

Your newborn photographs aren't only about the baby. They're about the people who were there from the very beginning.


We'll create photographs of you holding your baby, your partner with them, siblings together and the little moments that happen naturally throughout the experience.


These are the photographs that become part of your family's story.



Your artwork

After your session, you'll experience the MANAWA cinematic viewing experience. This is where you'll see your photographs brought together for the first time.


Your included 30 × 45cm ChromaLuxe artwork becomes the beginning of something tangible for your home — something you can see every day rather than leaving these memories hidden away on a phone.


Your Autumn Newborn Experience $1,099.


There are no complicated decisions to make after your session. We'll talk through your photographs and artwork together during your viewing experience.


Autumn sessions at MANAWA are available for a limited time.


With warmth and blessings,


Emma

"If only we could go back"

 

The first weeks can feel endless when you're living them.

Then suddenly, they're gone.

The tiny fingers become busy hands.

The sleepy newborn becomes a baby with a personality.

And one day, you'll look back and realise just how small they really were.


These photographs are there to take you back.
