Mel is talented, kind and professional. She did both our maternity shoot and newborn shoot, and captured some wonderful memories. She offers flexible, realistic shoot durations to allow for the possibility of newborn or toddler chaos. Her photos are personal & stunning. Would happily recommend Mel and return for any future family photographs.
Mel was incredible at capturing both my maternity and newborn photos. Her warm nature made myself and family so comfortable and relaxed. She is incredible with kids, and really captured them so well. The service she provides from first email to gallery delivery was perfect! Im in love with my images and will adore them hanging on my walls for years to come. Thank you Mel x
Had a lovely and seamless experience with Mel for our newborn photos! Mel has a beautiful and quiet commercial space and we loved the touch of the cheese and fruit platter. Being able to see the photos immediately as they were taken was great, and made it easy to make our photo selection then and there with no stress. Would highly reccomend for that natural style of newborn photography.
Both times Mel captured our children as newborns was the first time we had left the house after coming home from the hospital and she has made her space and the experience so comfortable, private and enjoyable. She is a total professional and so friendly and calm. We love having this moment to look back on.
We LOVE the experiences we have had when working with Mel and photos that she has taken of our growing and changing family. I have and always will recommend her to others. I have just hung photos from our latest newborn shoot on the wall and I couldn't be happier. Thanks Mel for always capturing these special moments in time for my family.
Mel captured the most beautiful photos for our family when our second daughter was born. She expertly handled our toddler and made us all feel at ease in her beautiful studio! We will cherish the photos and will definitely be back for more!
Amazing,Amazing,Amazing.. Super friendly, lovely environment. Mel herself is very professional and very welcoming. Highly recommend for cake smash sessions!!!!
Mel is the best! Love our maternity and new born photos. Her creativity and professionalism is amazing. Highly recommend her. :)
Mel is wonderful - a great photographer, but also a lovely human. Iāve done 2 shoots with her in the last 6 months and both have been a wonderful experience - she has a glorious light filled studio, fabulous wardrobe for mum and bub, and a great relaxed style. Highly recommend!
An amazing experience with memories that will last a lifetime. Mel was kind and professional. She gave us so much time and her attention to detail made the day. The photographs turned out beautifully. No doubt I would recommend to anyone looking for a newborn photoshoot.
Mel makes photoshoots so relaxing and fun! She always manages to get so many fabulous shots and we love these memories captured
I have had family photo shoots done with Mel on a few occasions now. She is absolutely brilliant š©· We have 3 girls that are full on and she has such a calming and friendly nature that they all listened to her and had so much fun during the shoot. The photos are absolutely beautiful & I will cherish them always. I would highly recommend Mel. We will come back to her time after time.
Mel is an incredible photographer, she makes the shoots really enjoyable, allows plenty of time in case of uncooperative babies, and most importantly delivers the most beautiful photos.
Mel is amazing, she has been my photographer for both my children and makes it look so easy, photos turn out amazing! Mel makes your feel so comfortable in-front of the camera and not to mention a baby whisperer. Highly highly recommend Mel
Mel has been my photographer for 3 years now. 2 maternity shoots, a mum and Bub shoot and 2 newborn shoots. Her work is absolutely amazing and her attention to detail is impeccable.

We loved the cake smash photoshoot for our daughterās first birthday and will cherish the photos for years to come. š„° Mel is a talented photographer and made us all feel welcome and relaxed. She captured the cheeky smile of our daughter perfectly.
Mel is a very talented photographer and she is always a pleasure to be around! She has done newborn shoots for both of my boys and we adore the photos that she has created. She is always professional even when dealing with challenging situations (toddlers not cooperating). Looking forward to our next visit!
Melās vibes instantly make you feel comfortable and her space is perfect. She is such a professional and we canāt thank her enough for the beautiful photos she took of our precious boy! Look no further if you are trying to find someone to catch those special moments in your life!
We had a cake smash photoshoot with Mel for our daughters first birthday and Iām so happy we did! From the moment we arrived I felt relaxed! Mel was genuine, easy to talk to and made you feel comfortable. The photos were just AMAZING!!! Worth every cent! We ended up choosing more because there were so many good ones to choose from! You wonāt regret working with Mel! Highly recommend!
Mel is a incredible photographer who captures the most beautiful memories and emotion through her photos. I've been lucky enough to have Mel shoot my maternity and newborn photos and the photos are gorgeous. Looking forward to Mel photographing our 1st birthday moments soon. Highly recommended.
Mel is an absolute baby whisperer and a delight to be around. She makes every shoot we've done with her a relaxed pleasure and the quality of her work is stand out! My walls are adorned with photographs she took. I could not recommended her highly enough.

Had photos taken of my first born and they were divine! Such a wonderful experience and simply the cutest photos on this planet. Mel did such an amazing job! Highly recommend.
Such a relaxing space for a newborn photography session - highly professional and amazing photos to capture our little one

Great team!
Mel was our professional photographer for our wedding this month. She was kind, fun and reassuring when doing the wedding photo shoot before the ceremony. Our professional photos came very fast and we are pleased with the end results!
Always great experience with Mel. She is professional, friendly and very personable throughout the whole process and shoot. It was great to have someone like her be part of creating a significant family moment and the memories that will go with it. Thanks Mel x

Mel was absolutely amazing right from the moment I contacted her 3 years ago. It was in the middle of Covid and all the lock down but she was so nice and assuring. From that time we done many photoshoots with Mel including 2 newborn and 2 Maternity sessions. She is amazing with babies and I was feeling confident to leave my baby in her capable hands. She knows exactly what to do with a newborn and made the session a memorable experience for us. Her studio is set up beautifully and the lighting is great. Mel goes above and beyond to take photos with her high standards. Each and every photo that she takes is absolutely stunning. She is a talented photographer. We were able to view the photos taken on the day and chose our favourites. We absolutely love our photos, they turned out better than we ever could have hoped for. We had 2 sessions with our 2 year old and we were not expecting any family photo or photo that he look at camera but Mel made it work and we have many beautiful photos from 2020 till now. Ordering photos and wall arts were very easy via her website and they arrived very quick. We highly recommend Mel to anyone who wants to capture precious and beautiful moments. Thank you so much Mel! š Less

From the moment you meet Mel you will be completely as ease and all the worries of awkward photos will completely disappear as she is just pure magic! You will feel like you have known her forever with her welcoming demeanor. She is also very patient with older children who donāt necessarily like to cooperate and have their photo taken with their new little sibling! The photos we received have always been stunning and family have commented that our most recent shoot looked like it has come straight out of magazine! The dresses Mel has available for you to use will make you feel beautiful in your photos and save the stress of having to find something that you hope will fit you in that first week or so postpartum. Although we wonāt experience another newborn shoot, we look forward to using Mel again in the future to capture more memories as our children grow. Less
Very well run buisness. Was very reasonably priced for what we got and that was some amazing photos of our newborn
So happy with our maternity photos. Mel made us feel so comfortable and made us look amazing. Thank you so much Melš
Mel was absolutely amazing with my newborn and my toddler! Such a beautiful nature and so lovely to deal with from start to end. The pictures turned out amazing and we love them ! Thank again Mel for your beautiful work to capture our newborn and family
Mel took our photos for both a newborn session and a Motherās Day mini session and I am so grateful I stumbled across her page on Instagram. Her work is beautiful and her positivity and warmth make you feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. I look forward to booking more sessions in the future and seeing her beautifully capture our family and my children as they grow

We absolutely love our photos, only challenge was trying to chose our favourite photos as there were so many beautiful photos! We love Mel's natural style and will definitely be going back for more photos in the future!

Where do I start! Mel is such an incredible photographer. She is so kind, calm and patient and knows exactly how to handle a newborn plus sassy little toddler. We had our newborn/family photos done in May and from start to finish it was a wonderful experience. She captured our growing little family beautifully and the images are perfect. ā¤ļø Thank you Mel xx
Thank you so much Mel for making me and my husband feel so comfortable during our maternity shoot. I adored your attention to detail and how natural and free spirited you are. You managed to capture such beautiful, feminine and natural photographs of me that I never thought possible. We cannot wait to come back and have our baby boy captured by you!
Had a wonderful day with Mel on her Mentoring day course. Looking forward to the future!
Mel is exceptional. Weāve had 4 shoots with her across 2 pregnancies and 2 babies, both in the studio and out on locations around Perth. We are always blown away with her extraordinary work standard and how lovely it is being photographed by her. This is coming from 2 people who hate having their picture taken. Cannot recommended her enough, to us Mel is the original and the best.
Photos of our newborn and family are amazing! Thank you Mel!

This is now our second newborn photoshoot with Mel and the pictures are amazing it was again so hard to choose which ones we loved the most! She was so gentle and patient with our newest boy and our extremely busy toddler! We would highly recommend Her. Thank you Mel! š¤
A wonderful experience and such beautiful photoās that our family will treasure. Mel made two new and nervous parents feel so comfortable and relaxed in your beautiful studio and allowed plenty of time for feeding and setting my little one as was needed. I look forward to Mel capturing more precious moment of our family in the future.
We had a shoot with our son in January and we could not have been happier! My partner is usually quite wooden in photos and she was able to make us feel so comfortable and capture lots of lovely relaxed moments with our son. She took the time to get the perfect shot and we had so many photos that we loved. We will definitely be going back to Mel!
Highly recommend Mel for newborn photography. We had an incredible experience having our 9 day old baby girls photos done. We felt so comfortable the moment we arrived and through the whole shoot. We love every single photograph we received and will definitely use Mel in the future!
Absolutely amazing experience for both our Maternity and Newborn shoot. Melās passion and patience for pure perfection in every shot is more than we could ask for. We are so incredibly greatful that you could capture these precious moments for us.
Mel is absolutely amazing! She captured my newborn so perfectly well, money so well spent, you will never get the early days back and they fly by so quickly...but having these awesome photos to keep for years to come is priceless!

My experience with Mel was a nightmare ,her attitude,her behavior and her level of understanding was so disappointing. She has been recommended by one of my friends and I did like her photos . I booked an appointment with her when I was pregnant for newborn session. For a FTM with a 7 days old baby who doesnāt know the day and night routines it is not easy to be on time ,I do believe it is understandable for everyone. I had a very difficult night with unsettled baby for newborn session date.so I called Mel and kindly advised her for one hour delay .I apologized for any inconvenience many times and advised her that Iām happy to work with the remaining time as the aim was recording precious moment with my baby ,there was no difference to have ten or twenty photos for me the importance was enjoying that time . she told me that she runs a business and I do not have any understanding of importance of her business. I offered her to pay for the session completely if she think I caused any damage. she repeated many times as her other client also late for an appointment the other day and she is not coping with it any more.(!!!!!!!) She accused me as unorganized and not responsible enough .I was so shocked ,I was in tears ,Iām still in tears when I remember how she treated me. I wish her luck as running a business and working with newborn need compassions and understanding . Less

Mel was very quick to accommodate with date changes and very easy to work with. She has photographed my first child and then my second and she never disappoints. Love her work
Thanks Mel for the beautiful and natural photos of our new baby. We love our family and sibling photos too. The whole experience was great from the gorgeous studio, outfits for myself and my daughter, relaxing atmosphere and of course your newborn photography expertise. We felt really at ease the whole shoot.
Mel was just fabulous. She encourage my three year old to participate in the shoot and managed to capture the style of photos I was hoping for. She is a true expert in her field resulting in an experience and product that is far superior. The venue is perfect for a feisty toddler and milk drunk newborn. Thank you for the wonderful memories youāve created and captured Mel!

Mel was amazing, we were looking for a photographer to really capture our newborns little features and just the innocence of him and she has captured this perfectly. Her Studio is so beautiful and calming and she was amazing with our little man when he started to crack up. I cannot thank her enough, will be coming back for sure Courtney
Mel has photographed both of our beautiful babies. She is a highly professional, extremely talented human being. The final result for both photoshoots was absolutely stunning and we will cherish our memories forever. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Once again we received the most beautiful photos from Mel Cieslik Photography. Mel is wonderful, she is so patient with newborns and toddlers. We have had a few sittings with Mel and each time it is an amazing experience. The prints we received are very good quality and look wonderful. Highly recommend Mel for Maternity, newborn, and sitters shoots! We are just so in love with our photos!
Thank you Mel for such an amazing experience for both my maternity and newborn photoshoot. I strongly recommend Mel for her professionalism, care, and talent. I love my photos. Mel made me so comfortable. I will definitely go back to Mel when I am ready to capture precious memories again. Thanks Mel. X
Mel took newborn photos of our little Ivy at 10 days old, and we were absolutely thrilled with the whole process. The photos were so amazing, it was so hard to choose our favourites! The experience we had on the day with Mel was just lovely - she has such a beautiful way with the babies and i would highly recommend her for any newborn shoots!
Mel took our maternity photos and our newborn photos - they are all beautiful! She has a gorgeous studio and such a calm and friendly demeanour which made us feel relaxed each time we were with her. Thanks Mel!

Comfortable, well appointed with numerous props to choose from. She has a natural affinity for babies and it was readily apparent from how she interacted with us (first time parents) and our daughter. Communication was excellent throughout and I would advise looking through her instagram and website for props, colour choices and advising Mel of your preferences so she can adequately prepare on the day. We sent through screenshots of photo styles we liked prior to arrival. As a keen photographer, I noted her choice of professional fine art paper(s) ; style and professional album. Although on the more expensive side, we recommended her album + print packages. She's right - you only have the one opportunity and our photos are much loved. We are constantly reminded of our day with Mel. Our family photo is on display in the living room ; the digital photos are displayed on our iPhone wallpapers and watches and we have the prints on display throughout the home. Thank you again! Less

Mel is an amazing photographer! We couldnāt be happier with our little girls newborn photos. I had a certain style I was chasing and Mel absolutely nailed it. They are just gorgeous. She was very patient and calm while dealing with our daughter and was happy to wait and settle her to get that perfect shot. Couldnāt recommend anyone more. Thank you xoxo
Mel was so fun and lovely to be around and my 7 month old really took to her and enjoyed the whole experience. Mel also offers an extensive range of beautiful props and accessories. I wish I had found her sooner to of had a new born shoot with her!
Mel is a not only a baby whisperer but extremely talented at getting amazing photos of our two babies. Her studio is the perfect setting with amazing styling options to create the perfect shots. Highly recommend.
Mel was so friendly & such a natural with newborns. Absolutely loved our photos! Thank you Mel for capturing the beautiful moments for us. Forever precious memories.
We've had 5 sessions with Mel for maternity/newborn/sitters photographs and have had a fantastic experience each time. My baby girl was unsettled and not an "easy" model during her newborn session but Mel was great at calming her and we still got the most beautiful photos. We can't recommend her enough!
We are in love with our daughters newborn and 8 month sitters photos!
I canāt even begin to express how much I love Melās work. She photographed my daughter as a new born and again at 8 months and both times she was kind and gentle with her. The studio is warm and inviting, just as Mel is! So glad we got to have these beautiful images captured by Mel

Mel was wonderful with both of my sons for their newborn shoots. She has a gentle way with babies and made us feel really comfortable. She is an extremely talented photographer, we couldnāt be happier with the photos. They are stunning. Canāt wait to go back to see her for a baby sitter session!
After following Melās photography for years we finally were able to have her capture our new little man and family. She did this so perfectly! We love each and everyone of our photos. Mel was patient and gentle with our wide awake little guy, she was easy to get along with and very friendly! Thank you so much! Highly recommend for amazing quality photography.
Mel is a very talented photographer and makes working with infants look easy. We're thrilled with our photos of our little one!
Very professional, photos are amazing and Mel is just such a nice person.
After lots of research we chose Mel to photograph our newborn because we loved her style. Sheās so calm and natural working with newborns and even our 3 year old daughter. We will be back for more photo in the future and highly recommend Mel to anyone wanting beautiful photos to capture some of the most special moments of your life.
Mel was wonderful with our 7 day old Pippa when she had her newborn photos taken. Her studio is amazing, not to mention the variety in props and other accessories in nearly every single colour. š Thanks Mel for our wonderful timepieces of Pip. They will be forever cherished. We will definitely be back. āļøāļøāļøāļøāļø

Mel is a true professional. The photos are of course absolutely stunning, however I was most impressed at how gentle and caring Mel was with our baby. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend! Mel is very professional, gentle and kind. She was very patient and gentle with our baby. Her studio was like a piece of heaven and we enjoyed every minute. I can not thank you enough for capturing the most stunning pictures of our little Shadi. You made our life much more beautiful ! Thank you Mel.
I am so glad we chose you to take photos of my newborn baby! You have captured such amazing photos for us and thanks for all the amazing memories!
Couldnāt recommend Mel enough. Myself and my partner felt comfortable and content during both the maternity and newborn sessions. Mel is a calming and confident presence and made the entire process a breeze, being especially good with working with our 12 day old. We are so in love with all of our photos and will treasure them for many years to come.
Absolutely did an amazing job with my maternity and new born. Highly recommended
Mel is nothing short of amazing! Her photographs are stunning and capture every moment, she really puts her clients at ease and she is so gentle with your baby. We had the pleasure of working with Mel, and seeing her work was incredible, you wont be disappointed.
Mel is a talented and professional photographer. She was patient and caring making sure to capture the perfect pictures of not only our newborn son but our whole family.
Mel is an amazing photographer - she was so patient with my twins and so gentle and she got the perfect shots of them. Would highly recommend!
Mel is true perfectionist as what she does, she had so much patience with our beautiful Ćrin and we could see from her beautiful studio that the photographs were going to be nothing short of perfection! Her prop selection and accessories are endless! We are in love with the stunning work she produced and will cherish these special images forever! Elaine, Shane & Baby Ćrin

Hands down, the BEST photographer youāll find. Less
Beautiful newborn photos from a true professional! Mel exceeded our expectations and we couldn't be happier with the photos we received.
My partner, baby and I all had a great experience with Mel for both the maternity shoot and the newborn session. Mel was very attentive to our baby and made him feel comfortable in different positions for the photos. Having never done a partner shoot before we were a bit nervous that we might look a bit awkward but Mel made us feel comfortable and relaxed for our maternity so the photos look real... More

Having never done a partner shoot before we were a bit nervous that we might look a bit awkward but Mel made us feel comfortable and relaxed for our maternity so the photos look really natural. Overall, this experience was so much fun and we have lots of amazing photos hanging up in the nursery! We will definitely be going back :D Less
Highly recommended! Mel was so patient and professional with our little baby Amalya, a very great experience.. And the pictures came out just perfect, beautiful memories to keep forever! Thank you š
Mel is a true professional and made the process of having a photo shoot a wonderful experience.
Mel was so easy going and had so much patience with my bub on the day she had to have her photos, but they came out perfect so thankyou xo
Mel was lovely and her photos were amazing; however, I found her communication via email to be lacking. Several times I emailed regarding certain things and she did not get back to me.
We were really happy with our newborn and maternity photos taken by Mel. She was professional and organised and lovely with our toddler and baby. She captured some great shots and made it seem effortless.
I can't recommend this photographer enough, for those wanting a truly magical memory of your newborn. Our little girl left a trail of poop and wee around every prop her booty touched and Mel managed to take it all in her stride, even through baby wakefulness and newborn tears. I'd recommend looking through the looks your after as the options are endless in this magic ladies creative lair! Your a... More

Mel has such an amazing eye for detail and creative flair that is worth every cent! Mel's presence and direction in the studio, and her handling of newborns (no easy task) is to the upmost professional standard whilst maintaining an easy going personality that makes everybody (including the newborn) more relaxed. A truly enjoyable experience! Thank you once again Mel! Less
Today was an absolute perfect day. Mel has the most amazing and calming space that puts baby and mum at ease. The photos are divine and Mel truly works magic. I am so happy with the photos and the experience was one I'll never forget.
Mel is just amazing! She was incredibly patient and so gentle with our little man. Her attention to detail is beyond amazing, which is definitely reflected in her stunning photos. Would highly recommend her. Thanks so much Mel for capturing precious moments of our little Elijah!!
There are no words to describe the amazing talent of Mel as a photographer. Truly gifted and for newborn shoots she is one of the most patient, caring and compassionate person to be working with newborns. I honestly cannot thank you enough for our amazingly beautiful photos xx
Mel was amazing with Lui! We were sent our photos and were so happy with them and this morning have just opened up the hard copies and the brag books so beautifully packaged they are amazing. Would definitely reccomend Mel ļæ½
Mel was so patient and really accommodating on the day. I just loved all the photos she took. I can highly recommend her to anyone that is keen to have some photos done.
I have been completely blown away by Mel's images. Not only are her pictures unbelievable, she is incredibly professional and knew how to handle our newborn baby like an absolute pro. I will be eternally grateful to her for capturing this special time so beautifully.
Mel and her talent in photography is amazing! She's very patient and takes time to calm Harper whenever she's unsettled. There were plenty of props and costume to choose from and she will help you find just the perfect outfit and background if you're unsure. I would definitely recommend her to others to capture those precious moments with your little one.
<3 Great photographer! Always a pleasure to work with <3
Just received the cake smash photos and they are absolutely gorgeous!! Thankyou for fitting us in for that
Just had our second photo shoot with Mel, a cake smash for our twin girls who are nearly 12 months. Thank you Mel, it was brilliant, more than we expected!!
Just received my maternity & newborn photos. They are absolutely beautiful, you have done such a wonderful job. Mel is creative, patient and very friendly to work with. I highly recommend her, you will not be left disappointed. Thank you so much once again, I will definitely be back :).
Love the photos Mel!! I am so looking forward for my baby's one! Can't wait anymore...
Just came back from a wonderful maternity session with Mel. She is so lovely to be around as well as being so talented! We had the best hour of photo shooting with heaps of wonderful photos, each unique in style. So happy that we found her. Looking forward to our new born session with lovely Mel again :)
