Newborn Photography
Newborn photography is a speciality that involves capturing the precious moments of a newborn baby’s life. It requires a unique set of skills including understanding newborn safety, mastering editing and knowledge of photography best practice.
A good newborn photographer must be able to work with newborns, babies and parents to take timeless images that new parents will keep for years to come. I have over 40 years of experience in family, maternity and newborn portraiture our photographers and I can provide a relaxed and enjoyable experience for clients resulting in gorgeous pictures.
Why Choose Newborn Photographers for Your Baby Photography?
Newborn photography is an art that requires skill, patience and a deep understanding of how to handle babies safely. Photographing newborns isn’t just about taking pictures; it’s about creating beautiful images that tell the story of your new arrival and the joy they bring to your whole family. My sessions are baby led, I follow your baby’s natural rhythm - feeding, nappy changes and naps are all part of the process to ensure your baby feels comfortable and safe throughout the shoot.

Whether you’re looking for classic newborn portraiture or candid family photography I aim to create a relaxed atmosphere in my studio where parents and babies can enjoy the experience. I use lovely props and soft lighting to highlight your baby’s features and capture those tiny details that make newborn photos so special.
