Jess Myers Photography

Leah is a family documentary photographer based in Flemington, Melbourne. As a mother of two, she knows how quickly the days blur—and how important it is for mothers to be seen in the story they’re living.

With a gentle, unposed approach, Leah captures the quiet magic of pregnancy, birth, newborns and family life—preserving everyday moments in a way that feels both honest and beautiful, meaningful and relaxed, all from the comfort of your own home.

These photographs are not just for the mothers, but for their children – to one day see how deeply they were held and how fiercely they were loved.

Motherhood Photographer / Specialising in authentic, minimalist portraits.

Moments captured of the little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

From pregnancy bumps, to birthing, to the tiny feet of a newborn. Then come all those firsts as a family, my feeling is that this time is precious, it’s both exquisite and fleeting, its heritage. Let’s capture it!

Feeling so lucky to have found a photographer that understands exactly what we are after every time we book her for a shoot. Thank you Martine. You are amazing!”

MATERNITY REVIEW * * * * * “We had such a fantastic maternity shoot with Martine. I always have reservations about getting photos done as my husband and I are always a little awkward in front of the camera but Martine put us at ease and offered some guidance while also giving lots of space for us to be ourselves. I am in love with all of the images!”

MOTHERHOOD MINI REVIEW * * * * * “An exceptionally professional and exhilarating experience. I am overjoyed to have found Martine and am so glad I invited her into our home. I fell in love with her work instantly but didn’t think my own shots would compare to her other work- but boy was I wrong! Not only do I feel empowered and so in love with what my body has created and achieved, but I am so grateful that she has captured such a milestone in our lives in a raw and natural way. The best thing I’ve ever done for myself.”
