Welcome to Little Rose Photography. My name is Charlotte and I live in Adelaide with my husband and three beautiful (yet exhausting!) children.

Six years ago we found out we were expecting our first born, and from that moment, my passion for all things pregnancy and birth exploded.  I was determined to know all there was about the changes that would happen through pregnancy, what to expect throughout labour and then how I would navigate motherhood in a foreign country without the family support system I had grown up with.  

My first two births were C-sections (one emergency, one planned) and after a pretty hard recovery the second time round, I was determined to birth differently when I became pregnant with my third.  I achieved my VBA2C on the 2nd September 2019 and it is a moment that forever changed my life. I found myself constantly looking at photos from all three births and wishing there was more. More photos of me changing into a mother, more photos that show the pain, the strength and the resilience of the female body and capturing that moment where the absolute miracle that is life joins you earth-side.  I couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed that I had missed out on capturing those memories that showed me that even when I was at my most vunerable, I was so incredibly strong.

This and so much more is why I have chosen to persue this dream. I am so beyond passionate about pregnancy and birth; the way in which we grow and birth life is truely extraordinary. But perhaps most importantly, I have started this journey because we, as mothers are always in the shadows. We are always the ones taking the photos and never in them.  We are always the ones who judge ourselves and never think we look good enough or thin enough or worthy of a photograph, and that is what I want to change.  You deserve to be at the forefront of your own birth.  This moment is about you. You have prepared for 9 months (if not longer!) for this and that is something that deserves to be celebrated.  

So if you feel like I resonate with you, then please get in touch on either the contact me page, Facebook or Instagram and I would love to talk more!
