This is not about the cost of a photography session. It is about the artwork that will hang in your hallway for the next twenty years. The framed print your daughter will look at when she is grown and say, "That is Mum, she was so beautiful." The album your son will pull off the shelf long after you are gone. Aurora Joy Photography is a full-service luxury portrait studio. You pay a session fee at booking. At your private gallery viewing, you choose the artwork that belongs in your home.

Your Investment — Sessions, Artwork & Pricing

Here is how it works.

Standard session fee: $99 — secures your date for maternity, newborn, and family sessions.

Cake Smash Session Fee: $200 — includes styled cake, custom backdrop, outfits, and all three session phases (portrait, smash, and bubbly bath). Everything taken care of.

Add professional hair and makeup for an additional $100 — most clients choose to include it, and we think you'll be glad you did. Your artwork is selected at a separate gallery viewing, after you've seen everything and know exactly what belongs on your walls.


Your investment is confirmed at your gallery viewing — not at booking. This means you choose what feels right for your home, your family, and your budget, after you have seen your photographs. Session collections begin at:

  •  Maternity: from $795
  • Newborn & Family: from $995
  • Cake Smash: from $895

Most families invest between $1,500 and $3,000 in artwork for their walls, heirloom albums, and personal digital collections.

Artwork is available as: — Framed prints — professionally printed, finished, and delivered — Canvas — large-format wall art for statement pieces — Heirloom albums — lay-flat, museum-quality, designed to be handed down — Digital collections — for personal archiving All artwork is designed for your home, not your hard drive.

Your photographs are made to live on your walls. Every collection includes finished artwork — because that's the whole point.
These are heirlooms — and we want every family to be able to have them. Payment options:

  • Pay in full by bank transfer
  • Credit card
  • Cash
  • In-house layby: 6-month plan directly with us
  • PayRight: interest-free for collections $1,500 and above

Your photographs are more than a keepsake. They are art, legacy, and a thread back to this moment — forever. Every session is different. Every family's artwork is different. But the feeling when you see your photographs for the first time? That is always the same.
