Why book a newborn photography session?
Investing in a newborn photography shoot is a meaningful way to capture the fleeting early days of your baby's life. Here are the key reasons to consider:
1. Preserving Precious Moments
- Capturing a Brief Stage: Newborns change quickly, and professional photography preserves their tiny features, soft expressions, and early innocence.
- Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity: These first few weeks cannot be recreated, making it a unique moment to document.
2. Professional Expertise
- Specialised Skills: I am trained in safely posing and handling babies to ensure comfort and security.
- High-Quality Results: I use professional equipment and editing techniques to produce polished, beautiful images.
3. Stress-Free Experience
- Relaxed Sessions: I have experience in soothing babies and adapting to their needs, allowing you to enjoy the process without worry.
- Everything Provided: I provide the props, wraps, backdrops, and ideas, saving you time and effort.
4. Creating Lifelong Keepsakes
- Timeless Heirlooms: The photos become cherished memories, perfect for framing, albums, or sharing with loved ones.
- Family Connection: Including parents and siblings in the shoot creates images that celebrate your growing family.
5. Celebrating Your Baby’s Arrival
- Commemorating a Milestone: A newborn shoot is a special way to mark the joy and wonder of your baby’s arrival.
- Personalised Art: I aim to tailor sessions to reflect your style and preferences, adding a personal touch.
A newborn photography session is a worthwhile investment in creating beautiful, irreplaceable memories of your baby's first days, giving you tangible treasures to revisit for years to come.

FAQ
When is the best time to schedule a newborn photo session?
It is recommended to schedule your newborn photo session within the first two weeks after birth, when babies are sleepier, more flexible, and have that newborn "curl" which makes for adorable poses. However, I offer newborn photo shoot to babies up to 8 weeks old on the day of the shoot. Contact me during your pregnancy to reserve your spot. Please note that older babies might be more alert and awake during the shoot and less flexible.
How long does a newborn photo session typically last?
Newborn sessions can last anywhere from 2 to 3Â hours, allowing plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and capturing a variety of poses and setups. However, the actual duration may vary depending on the baby's needs and temperament and the collection you choose.
What if my baby is fussy or doesn't want to cooperate during the session?
It's completely normal for newborns to be fussy or unpredictable during a photo session. I am skilled in soothing and comforting babies. Be prepared for breaks as needed to feed, change, or soothe your baby during the session.
What if I have specific ideas or poses I want to try for the photos?
Feel free to share any specific ideas or preferences you have with me before the session. I will work with you to create a customised session that reflects your vision and captures the beauty of your newborn baby. Please note that I will not be posing the baby in the 'froggy' or 'potato sack' pose.
How should I prepare for the newborn photo session?
I will provide you with detailed preparation tips before the session, including feeding and soothing techniques, what to bring, and how to dress for the session. Follow these guidelines to ensure a smooth and successful photo session.
