When to Book

Your newborn session can be booked months in advance or  after the birth depending on available space. We use your due date as a place holder and once your baby has been born we can then book in a proper date and time.

In home or studio?

Most of my new parents choose to opt for an In home session. You and your family are far more relaxed in your own home.  You don’t need to be worried about how tidy your home is (I have three kids!!). I will not be photographing your house. I bring everything I need. For the premium session I come with suitcases of props and blankets so you don’t miss out on choice.

There are no additional advantages to doing your newborn shoot in the studio but you are always more than welcome to pick this option.

Lifes little moments

The premium session comes with all the blankets, wraps, headbands and hats. The 2hr session allows time for settling and multiple poses. You can include as many or as little props as you like. At the beginning of the shoot we talk about the colours you would like to use and you have full control of the style.

The family photos are either done on the bed, against a blank wall or a mix of both.

Preferable premium newborn photos are taken within the first 10 days while your baby is still very sleepy and can easily be molded into cute curled up poses.

Simple Bliss

A classic session is a lovely simple photo shoot about you and your new family member. No props are used and baby s are kept dressed in a simple sleeveless plain body suite. The photos of baby alone are taken on the bed with a plain bedspread. The family photos are either done on the bed, against a blank wall or mix of both.

A classic newborn shoot can be done at any age but generally the first few weeks are best.
