capture all the little moments
NEWBORN SESSION
These sessions typically take place within the first three weeks, when your little one is still all sleepy and curled up in adorable newborn poses.
Don’t worry, it’s never too late to book a session—each stage is special! The session usually lasts between 1 to 2 hours, but we never rush. We go at your baby’s pace, making sure there’s plenty of time for feeds, changes, and especially those cuddles. It’s all about capturing those precious moments, comfortably and naturally.
FAQ
When's the best time for a newborn session?
In my experience, newborn sessions work best at around 6 to 14 days and up to a month. At this age your baby is still very sleepy and can be easily transition from mum”s arm to dad’s arm without wake them up. My photography is natural and unposed.
My newborn photography is up to a month but if your baby is older we can still take some stunning images
How long does a newborn session last?
My Newborn Experience sessions usually take about 1 to 2 hours, but I always make sure we have extra time if needed. This includes moments for feeding, settling, and changing. I like to start at 9:30 am because mornings are when babies are at their sleepiest and most relaxed—before the day starts to get busy and unsettled.
I follow a “baby-led” approach, never rushing through the session. Babies pick up on our energy, so I take my time, allowing them to feel calm and comfortable. Some sessions may need a bit more time, and that’s okay— newborns can’t be rushed.
How much does a newborn session cost?
My Newborn Experience packages start at £199. Packages are all-inclusive (i.e. including digital prints) and do not include hidden costs. Please visit the Investment page for full details.
When will we receive our photos?
Your preview gallery of edited photos from your session will be emailed to you within 3 weeks. This is when you can select your photos for your package. If you wish to upgrade to a higher package or include additional images then you certainly can at this point.
What is the newborn session like?
The session is your time to relax and soak in those precious moments with your little one. While you cuddle, I’ll be quietly capturing the raw beauty of those early days. We’ll take breaks whenever you need—whether it’s for a feed, a cuddle, or just a quiet pause. Your calm voice and presence really help set the tone for a peaceful session.
Newborn sessions usually last about 1 to 2 hours, though sometimes longer if your baby is a light sleeper, particularly alert, or needs an extra feed.
To help your baby stay sleepy and content, I recommend nursing or bottle-feeding throughout the session. If you’re bottle-feeding, feel free to bring extra bottles, and if you use a dummy, bring that along too—it helps to soothe and settle them when needed.
