Melbourne Maternity Photography
Loving, Authentic and Seen
Your pregnancy is as unique as you - a season that changes you forever, in a meaningful way.
Iโm here to capture your pregnancy as it truly feels โ the joy, the love, and the patient waiting.
These sessions are intentionally created to give you space to slow down, breathe, and be present. No cringe poses or outfits that donโt feel like you.
I document the softness, strength, and intimacy of this time, with sessions shaped around you and your life, at home or outdoors, on your own or with your partner, children, or pet, whatever feels most you.
Intimate, grounded, and filled with quiet anticipation.
My hope is to help you remember not just how you looked, but how it felt to carry your little human โ the strength, the tenderness, and everything in between.
My Process
1. Letโs Connect
When you are ready, send me an enquiry via website form, email (jillmonchou@gmail.com) or Instagram.
Iโll respond within 3โ5 business days for us to begin planning something beautiful together.
3. Getting Ready
Iโll organise a chat with you to learn more about your family, your vision, and how youโd love this season captured.
Youโll also receive a detailed session preparation guide, and Iโll be here to answer any questions along the way. My goal is to ensure everything feels easy and thoughtfully tailored to you.
4. Your Session Day
On the day, everything will be relaxed and fun. We chat, we laugh, we connect.
Iโll guide you with gentle prompts while capturing your natural connection. All you need to do is be yourselves and enjoy this quality time with your loved ones.
If the weather plays up or someone is unwell, weโll simply choose another day.
5. Delivering Photos
Your online gallery will be ready within 3โ4 weeks.
Each image will be thoughtfully edited and prepared for you to download, share, and treasure.

2. Secure Your Session
Weโll discuss and confirm a time and location that feels right for you โ whether thatโs at home, one of my handpicked locations, or somewhere meaningful to your family.
Your session is then secured with a booking fee, signed contract, and questionnaire.
โJill captured our moments with such genuine care and attention. Every photo feels thoughtful, natural, and full of meaning. These are the images weโll treasure for a long time.โ
