These sessions are amongst my favourites. I love newborns’ little tummies, wispy hair and tiny toes and fingers. The best time to do these photographs is when your baby is 7 - 14 days old. This is because they are still quite ‘pliable’, they generally sleep a lot and colic and baby acne have not yet set in.

I try to be a little more flexible with the dates of these shoots as things don’t always go according to plan. I generally book them for around a week after your due date and change them if necessary - babies seldom come when they are expected.

These sessions are generally a little longer as we have to work at your newborn’s pace. They average between 2– 4 hours. We need to allow time for feeding, changing and cuddling. New parents can also be tired and a bit sore so I don’t want to rush things. These are lovely, gentle sessions and really special shoots which I highly encourage.
