What to expect


I have been photographing newborns for 4 years and have amazing settling skills.

Your session is all about your baby. They are not fussy, but simple, timeless portraiture, with minimal use of props and bright colours. I am fully trained in Newborn posing and the safe practice of Newborn photography, I will ensure that your baby is treated with the care that they deserve.


Newborn sessions are held within the first 2 weeks of your babies life. The best time to capture those precious memories being between 14 days old. Babies at this stage very bendy and flexible and are usually fast asleep most of the time.


Sessions can take anywhere from 1 - 3 hours, some can take a little more but this depends on the package chosen and how settled your little one is on the day.


​The session is just the beginning of creating these precious memories. 

Whether you are booking a Newborn shoot, a Family shoot or a session for an older baby, I ensure that the whole process runs smoothly from start to finish.


Shoot time: I start all newborn sessions at 10am as this is most babies settled time, later in the day babies tend to start to get fussy and do not settle as well.


After your session I spend an extensive time selecting and editing the best images for your gallery that you will soon come and view to order.


Payment: Your final payment of your chosen package is payable on the day of your session.

What to wear


Outfits: For family photos always wear clothes that make you feel comfortable. I tend to shoot on a beige or grey backdrop so black is always a good look!


Avoid logo or brand / cartoon / slogan t-shirts.


For any sibling shots the baby is always wrapped in cream or a pastel colour as this is the safest for handling.
