Hello & Welcome!
My name is Jodie and I am a Perth maternity, newborn and family photographer based in Willetton Western Australia, I’m also the mummy to Samantha May (15), Charlotte Eloise (13) and Ryder Mikhail (10); plus our furry baby Pickles McGee, the cheekiest kitty you ever did see!
I have had a love of both babies and photography for as long as I can remember. I was always trying getting my hands on Mum’s little film point & shoot camera and was fascinated by the Polaroid camera being flashed around at a family friends barbecue, all the while admiring any babies that I came into contact with secretly hoping their Mummies would offer me a hold.
I’m very sentimental and so of course still have the baby album my own Mum put together for me after I was born, it was pulled out of it’s safe little spot in our house I’d say with-in days of bringing our first daughter home… once everyone knows the baby is born, it’s gender, name and birth weight the next question is… “so who does he/she look like?” do you have a baby photo of both your babies parents ready to compare? I’d love to produce the images your little one pulls out in 20 odd years to compare to their own new baby!
Your precious little bundles safety is as important to me as it is to you and I assure you that it is my main concern while working with you, if you see any photos in my galleries that you think look unsafe you can trust that they are images created with a parents hands either cloned out of the picture like magic or just out of the frame.
I always find myself admiring the photographs on display in peoples homes but love capturing the memories that will take pride of place on your walls; to be looked back on when your babies are getting married and starting their own families!
Thank you for visiting Samantha May Photography, I would love to meet and photograph your families newest edition!

“Jodie took her time to work with our very active toddler while also keeping our newborn calm! Calm, friendly and very accommodating“
“Had a fantastic newborn photo shoot with Jodie. Jodie was really patient and relaxed (even when we were super late, being our first outing with our daughter!). Jodie listened to what we wanted and was happy to facilitate all of our requests. The quality of the shots that Jodie took were outstanding. She really captured our little girl’s personality and all the gorgeous little things we want to remember from her being so small. Our photo album is Devine and We loved being able to have input into the format/photos used. I’d highly recommend using Samantha May Photography for your newborn photos“
“Jodie was so down to earth and there was no fine print or scams“
“Had our third girl’s newborn photos taken by Jodie. The whole experience from beginning to end was positive and professional. Jodie was very patient when we ran late, engaging with our two older girls,and very gentle when positioning the newborn. The photos were natural and fully captured the girl’s emotions and personality. We ended up spending more than what we had planned to because the photos were just too good to part with! Thank you for helping us to capture this beautiful moment“
