This depends on the sort of images you are looking for from your newborn photoshoot. The best time to photograph your newborn in curled up, sleepy poses, is usually within the first month after birth, when babies are still very sleepy and naturally curl into those beautiful, relaxed poses.

However, if you would prefer images of your baby awake and alert, then we can leave it later and photograph baby up to around 4 months old. 

It also depends on how you and baby are recovering. Some need longer in hospital than others and I work around you, not me. 

It’s best to book during pregnancy to secure your space, and then we’ll confirm your session once your baby arrives. However, if your baby is already here, get in touch I’ll try to find a day that works for us both!

Please don’t worry! This is not a problem. 

Newborn sessions are baby-led, with plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, and settling. Even if your baby is awake for part (or all) of the session, we can still create beautiful, meaningful images.

With years of experience and a calm, gentle approach, I work at your baby’s pace – there’s no pressure or rush. And I have lots of tips and tricks up my sleeve I can use to calm your baby!

Yes. Your baby’s safety is something I will never compromise on. 

I am fully trained in newborn safety and handling, and every pose is carefully supported and guided. Lots of my photographs are created by putting together several separate images using Photoshop, and I will never risk your little one’s safety and comfort.  The studio is kept warm and comfortable, and we take regular breaks to ensure your baby is happy and settled throughout.

You can relax knowing your baby is in safe, experienced hands.

Very little! Most of what we need is already here.

The studio is fully equipped with wraps, blankets, and carefully selected props. I’ll guide you beforehand on anything helpful to bring, such as extra feeds or sentimental items you’d like to include.

All you really need to do is arrive, sit comfortably, and enjoy the experience.

Absolutely! I will always encourage it.

Your newborn photoshoot isn’t just about your baby, it’s about your growing family and the connection between you. We’ll create a mix of images, including parents, siblings, and those special early connections. 

These are often the portraits that become the most treasured over time.

My prices for digital collections are below, but I also offer prints, wall art and albums. You pay a session fee of £75 for a newborn photoshoot, and then you don’t have to decide how many images, or how you will display them, until you see the finished results. It means that, if you don’t love them, you don’t have to have them.
