welcome to studio by chlo.
Welcome to Studio by Chlo,
a calm and cozy space nestled in the Swan Valley — created for slow mornings, tiny details, and documenting the early chapters of motherhood.
This space was designed with intention: soft light, natural textures, and a sense of ease that lets you simply be.
Whether it’s a newborn session, a motherhood milestone, or one of my seasonal mini events, the studio is a place where you can breathe, connect, and feel held.
Where stories of motherhood find stillness.
Sessions here are slow, soothing, and baby-led — we follow their rhythm, not the clock.
From feeding breaks to family cuddles, everything is unhurried and intentional.
The studio is kept warm, stocked with blankets and outfits for bub, and naturally lit to create timeless, soulful imagery.
It’s not about perfection — it’s about connection.
the client closet
Each session includes access to my client closet — a curated collection of flowing, neutral-toned dresses chosen to photograph beautifully in both studio and outdoor light.
The pieces are bump-friendly, comfortable, and designed to move with you.
Textures of linen, lace, and soft cotton — tones of cream, oat, and brown — every piece is made to help you feel effortless and beautiful.
A note on pets:
To keep the studio feeling warm and homely, you may occasionally spot my sweet house cat wandering past. She never enters the studio during sessions, but if you or your little ones have allergies, please let me know so I can prepare the space accordingly.
A note on privacy:
The studio is in my family home, for privacy reasons the address will be shared in your confirmation email only. If you’d like a more precise location, send me a DM but the studio is located in Swan Valley, Perth’s North.

The studio is designed for all things motherhood and babyhood: newborn sessions, breastfeeding moments, tummy time, sitting stages, crawling, standing, walking, first birthdays, cake smashes, and motherhood mini sessions.
If it’s part of your baby’s first year or your motherhood journey, this space will capture it beautifully. -
Yes, I provide soft, neutral, textured blankets, simple props, and minimal styling pieces that align with my warm and natural editing style.
Everything is designed to keep the focus on your baby and your connection. -
It’s best to reach out and secure your newborn session when you’re in the second or third trimester, this ensures availability and takes the pressure off of you in those early days of motherhood. I will always do my best to accomodate last minute bookings, but guarantees cannot be made.

Yes, we have a very gentle house cat, she never enters the studio during sessions, but if you or your little ones have allergies, please let me know so I can prepare the space for you.

Studio newborn sessions run for about 60 minutes and are completely baby led.
There’s always time for feeding, cuddles, settling, and breaks, no rushing, ever. -
Soft neutrals, warm earthy tones, and simple textures work beautifully in the studio.
Avoid bold colours, heavy patterns, or large logos.
If you need help, I’m always happy to guide you or recommend pieces from the wardrobe. -
Yes, the room is heated to keep bub cozy and sleepy.
This helps create those calm, curled-up newborn moments. -
Yes, free parking is available along the verge in front of the house.
