For piece of mind, I recommend booking your newborn photoshoot after your 20 week scan, especially if you’d like to do a maternity shoot. If you book your maternity and newborn shoot together, you’ll receive 25% off the newborn session fee.

If you’re after curled up, sleepy baby photos, the best time to photography your newborn is between 5 to 14 days old. This is when your baby will still be very sleepy and they are still able to curl up like they were in the womb.

Don’t worry if you’ve missed this period, we can still get gorgeous photos of your baby but they might not go into all the poses.

Fear not! I always have some flexibility in the week for admin, editing and last minute bookings. Please get in contact as soon as you can so I can fit you in.

Newborn photo sessions are completely baby led so that means I photograph around baby’s feeds, nappy changes and soothing.

All babies are different and some sleep solidly with no fuss and allow us to rattle through the poses in 2 hours while others need to be settled between poses.

I generally allow for up to 4 hours but if we need more time for the last few poses, that’s not a problem.

Of course! This is a special time for all the family and your children will cherish the photos.

Since toddlers are too young to hold the baby, I swaddled the newborn to keep them still and calm and photograph the children lying down so baby is safe.

I’ll ask you or another adult to stay within arm’s length to support the newborn.

Sessions take place at your home in South or Central London meaning you can stay in the comfort of your home. I’ll bring all the props, backdrops, wraps and more to create the stunning images in your home.
