Newborn Photoshoots Information & Pricing

Newborn Sessions

This page covers information on newborn photoshoots and pricing. There is something so precious about those first few weeks your bring your new baby home. They are so fresh and tiny, every little movement just seems so magical, they truly are a miracle. It’s hard to believe that it wasn’t so long ago that they were kicking inside your bump! 

And that is why it’s my goal is to make sure you absolutely love your precious newborn images. When you look back on them I hope they will bring you a smile and inspire you to re-live some of those moments by showing them to your loved ones. My portraits capture your little one just as they are in this moment, simple, pure and timeless. I use minimal props and neutral colours to keep the focus entirely on your little baby. By working with organic tones, natural posing on the beanbag, and soft lighting, your images will not only be beautiful but will also be completely timeless.

Every newborn session includes family portraits, sibling portraits and individual portraits of your baby, the images we create will always focus on joy, love and connection.

It's all in the timing!

The best time for a newborn session is when your baby is between 5 and 15 days old, this allows for posing whilst your baby still remembers being curled up all warm and cosy in the womb. After this time your baby starts to stretch out and become much more alert to their surroundings. Please book your newborn session as early as possible to avoid disappointment, therefore I recommend tentatively booking the session during your 2nd trimester.

How it works

The Consultation

Once you have decided you want to go ahead with a photoshoot with me and booked your session, we schedule a time to chat where we will discuss any ideas and expectations you have as well as wardrobe and colour themes. This is the perfect chance to get to know each other in order to help us have a relaxed photo session. The session fee is required on booking in order to secure your session and a contract will also be exchanged before your session.

The Session

Typically, the session will last 3-4 hours in the comfort of your home and will be relaxed and calm allowing for plenty of time for feeding and cuddling. The safety of your baby is of the utmost importance and your baby’s needs always comes first. I am fully trained in newborn safety, the art of newborn posing and wrapping and my sessions are very much baby led in order to keep your baby as comfortable as possible. I will never force your baby into a pose they are not comfortable with.

Online Viewing

2 weeks after your session you will receive an online slideshow of your images to view over a 24 hour period. After 24 hours your slideshow goes offline whilst you decide which package you would like to purchase. After your purchase, you will then get access to all the images from your session in order to make your digital selections for download and/or usb. Prints are included in your package and more are also available to purchase through your gallery.

Bespoke Framing

If you wish to discuss bespoke printing and framing options with me, we can arrange the viewing appointment to be at your home. After you have selected and purchased the package of choice, I will show you frame and album samples and talk you through all of your options to print and display your favourites in your home perfectly. Once we have designed your product it then takes up to 2 weeks for the lab to deliver.
